MRCOOL DIY 5th Gen Multi-Zone 2-Zone 36,000 BTU 23 SEER2 (12K + 18K) Ductless Mini-Split Air Conditioner and Heat Pump

Dual Zone Unit As Hoped For

I recently built a metal building with two sections and decided that I needed heat and air. I didn't want to spend the amount required to have a HVAC company install one. I heard about DIY mini splits and thought that as a good option as I am capable of taking on this type of project. The price was fair; the equipment seemed to meet expectations; and the installation was relatively easy. The startup was a little rocky but was worked out. There are/were a couple of things that are/were irritants. The thermostat is far from accurate and I suppose based on the location that would be expected. The other irritant was that the system ended up being low on freon so I obtained some R410A and added to bring suction pressure back up to proper operating range. I don't know if this was an install issue or whether the pre-charged line(s) were not fully charged. I'm just glad it was something I could take care of without calling out a HVAC guy. I will mention one other thing. I had an electrical question with regards to the prope wire gauge to use and breaker (I found two different answers for this unit). I reveived answer back withing 12 hours which was unexpected. Overall, I would purvhase again.

Great communication, I highly recommend this company If you’re looking for a HVAC split, great price and great people.
