mini splits
Can a mini split air handler handle more than one room. For example, can an air handler in a hall way heat and cool bed rooms off that hall?

The machine doesn't know where it's located. When on, it provides the amount of cooling, dependent on it's type, to the areas it can reach. Part of cooling is dehumidification. Without a doubt the dehumidification function will serve to dehumidify the adjacent areas. As far as how much cooling affect will be recognized in the rooms has more to do with airflow patters and distance and, of course, whether the doors to the rooms are open or closed.
If YOU want change, YOU have to first change.
If you are waiting for the 'other guy' to change first, just remember, you're the 'other guy's' other guy. To continue to expect real change when you keep acting the same way as always, is folly. Won't happen. Real change will only happen when a majority of the people change the way they vote!

You can also install multiple indoor units on a single outdoor unit. A Mitsubishi ductless unit can have up to (8) different indoor head units installed on a single outdoor unit. You can put an indoor unit is each room if you would like.

There are also mini-split indoor units that can be ducted as well. But a unit in each room will give you the best zoning. Meaning if you have rooms that are unused most of the time, you can turn down the AC in those spaces or completely shut that indoor unit off.
