I've been thinking of adding mini splits for AC and those days, in the high 40's & 50's, when it's not quite cold enough to light the stove.
I will say that this living space above my garage is only a few years old and is very well insulated and I think that is obviously key.

I have mini splits out at my island camp also but not the hyper heat units just standard ones since I only use them for AC but they also kick butt in cooling down the camp on the hottest of days.
