My HVAC contractor went bankrupt and I need someone to help me with the ductwork design. Dana has suggested a Fujitsu 1 1/2 ton unit in my enclosed crawl space. I am not asking for someone to design it for free but as little as possible as I a retired now. Any help would be great.
Thanks!

A mini split has no duct work. That's the point.
Mike, there are ducted minisplits. You are likely thinking of ductless minisplits. There are valid reasons to go with ducted minisplits, such as avoiding large wall or floor mounted units in rooms.
Fretted, my experience is limited but if you can't find a knowledgeable hvac subcontractor in your area there are several online based hvac design services such as energyvanguard (which I have not used). You would still need to find an installer however, assuming you're not planning on going DIY.
Thanks, I've never seen one.
