DIY Gen-3 34,400 BTU 16 SEER Smart Ductless Mini Split Air Conditioner and Heat Pump with 25 ft. Install Kit 230-Volt

I just bought this unit with low expectations since I live in Florida. I decided to go mini splits over conventional so I can control costs. It was a good choice. Easy to install. Wall bracket should be built to adapt to standard 16 on center wall framing.

Installed the unit in a basement remodel. The installation was straight forward for a medium skilled individual and the unit looks and fits well into the space. Only recommendation is that I would upsize to the next model as it is having a tough time keeping up in the cold temperatures we are having. I live in Pennsylvania and the temps have been pretty low so believe a bigger unit could provide more heating capability. All other features (cooling, operations) have been very good.

So aside from some basic knowledge on how to screw in a light bulb I had never tackled anything this big, after watching some YouTube videos I felt confident enough to install it myself, the hardest part was making room on my electrical panel to install the new breaker and after purchasing some single pole 20A breakers I had enough room to put the new breaker, the second most difficult part was actually drilling a hole through the wall, simply because the drill bit was not as long and the width of the wall.Let me add that you shouldn't cheap out on the disconnect box for the outside,I initially purchased the $10 one from Home Depot and the disconnect was bent and so I had to troubleshoot from the breaker all the way to the Unit sooo get the $30 one with fuses as a double measure. The unit was installed nat the end of summer 2018 and it cooled my 1200sqft 18ft ceiling main level effortlessly. Heating is not as efficient, specifically here in Atlanta when the temp drops below 40F, the air coming out is not as hot even in turbo mode. All that being said I had gotten mutiple quotes from different contractors and they were all comming in at $4800 plus for a 14 seer 2 ton unit. Total cost of the project was $1490 for the unit, $100 in electrical supplies and $7 for the lineset cover which is basically a square plastic gutter from Ace hardware.If you were having second thoughts...don't this will save you $$$$

(This is not a review for the Oasis hyper 230 volt listed above) I bought the Mr Cool DIY 12,000 BTU 500 sqft ductless mini split air conditioner with heater 115 Volt 20 amp Model DIY-12-HP-115A. I bought this last year to put in our master bedroom for my wife, she has a medical condition so during the summer time we keep the master bedroom between 64° to 66° and during the winter about 77° it has been very practical and was easy to install with the help of my son. I've had no issues with it yet, works great for cooling and heating the master bedroom only. It was the best buy for our needs would recommend whether for one room, or great for shop about 500 sqft. It gets cold enough for me to use an extra blanket during the summer time.

Very simple and strait forward. I am glad they had 25 feet of hose because I needed 24.5 from second story

Purchased this unit because it is DIY (only one on the market), the 110 VAC/20A feature, and superb 5/7 year warranty. Ran the hoses through a hot water heater space inside of 3" ABS. Will use 4" next time, was somewhat of a challenge to thread. This is my 3rd install, intend to purchase 4 more units. Central HVAC is a waste of money and very inefficient in a large expanded floor plan with moderade annual temperatures. I love this product..!

Very simple. As advertised. Precise instructions. I'm very happy.

I love the Mr. Cool, easy to install

Only had it two weeks and it works great. Cools three rooms . It isn’t the dog days of summer yet but so far so good. Installation isn’t hard at all. I had to get someone to wire the 220 as I am not an electrician. Other than that, it was pretty simple. I suggest two people on this bigger unit

Bought a 3 unit system for our bedrooms and a large unit for our great room. Best purchase ever. Quiet, efficient and affordable.
