THe ONLY reason to use soap is to emulsify oils...if the filter never encountered oils/fats, then soap would just act as a contaminant. To backwash, I connect a tube from the filter outlet, direct to a garden hose...gets a good backwash!

I am just loving your videos! So glad I found your channel!

Thanks

Thank you for giving such straight-forward, easy to understand instruction. I would truly be lost when it comes to solar without your videos.

Excellent information. The information you provide is well in excess of any professional videos with less pertinent information. Many thanks for your efforts.

Is it better to go with a 24 Volt system?

I used 1/8th aluminium Angle too, with Riv nuts in panelsand bolts with loctite. I used a self tapper big ones into metal roof trusses. one on each end and sealed around entire aluminium angle piece. Also used 3m 5200 before screws. I'm pretty sure you could lift the entire rv with my mounting system, lol.

This is just what I was looking for. You gave me peace of mind. Thank you so much. Now I have to figure out how to do all of this and the cost

Helps keep the temperature down in the less insulated area of the house and reduces the time that our ac unit is running at home in turn saving money. Great item

You forgot one thing. The Title " how to install a mini split"with solar. ??? Everyone looking here has Solar But want to know about a mini split. Just wasted 13 min

Thanks COOP ...

I always thought solar water heat panels were a good idea for rv use!

I currently have a 30 foot 1993 holiday rambler camper. It is in really good shape and we love it. We have 1800 watts of solar with 2 inverters a 3000 all in one powmr and a sungold power 4000 watt low frequency inverter. We are installing a minisplit this weekend and your videos have helped us alot. Thankyou for what you are doing

Can you provide parts list specs of your hand pump? Thanks

wires on the roof could use more protection... good job on the outside AC install , the new direct DC heat pumps might work well for you also.

Love this video. Where is the closest city for supplies to this location? Please. Thank you.

Way to go brother. Thanks

Planning to run a similar 7000 BTU Split ac unit with min. 310W and Nominal 450W power draw ratings... My Camper only has 4m2 space at the roof, so I can only utilize 800-840W of panels over there... Do you think that I can run 5-6 hours a day in mediterranian region ? Irradiation differs from 800-900 W/m2 during summer season...

Thank you for your informative video. May I ask how many watts and amps does your mini split draw? Thanks.

I came for the solarpanel install I stayed for the scenery. ❤️

We live in the north Ga mountains. We are planning to have a mini split system installed. I do wonder about how feasible a solar operated unit would be since the winters can be pretty cloudy. Would it even be worth it?

How much money are you in on this build? Ac solar battery sect?

You the man!

Does the gentlemen answer any questions as of late?

Those six batteries run your mini split all night without any problems? About how much battery is left the next morning? If say running on a hot summer night.

It’s dangerous. That hot line off the battery bank needs to be fuses AT THE TERMINAL. if that were to short it a massive amount of current flowing and an almost certain fire.

Great video, this is so helpful! I came here after seeing the mini split set up. This is going to change my life. I have to start saving up for this. Your videos are good, the I information is what I need. I’d rather have the info in a succinct presentation than a sifting through a long video that some do as part of their production. Thank you for taking the time to make these

Too much time talking.

Your approach is the no-nonsense, straight forward manner which is easy to listen to and learn from that I do so appreciate. Thank you for taking your time to provide this information. I will continue to look for and watch your future content.

nice job Sir, Question..... would 4 Battleborns be enough to run same minisplit?

👍⚾️🇺🇸

Did I miss the information about the mini split?

Excellent! I have the large system and do this with the gaskets they send from Berkey. Your method is much better!!

Keep the propane for hot water and the stove. Do not attempt to do those things with electric.

Why don't you need a refrigerator vent?

what would be the total cost of for solar system?

You are so creative! I would love to see a rain catchment system where the fresh water tank could be used and a few barrels if possible. I keep thinking someone will create solar window shades that fold & latch to the rig while traveling. Developing solar slide covers would be a great also. Overlanders developed a solar system that was double layered that operated by remote. The raised panel allowed air circulation to decrease heat build up and the panels that rolled out created shade for the sides of the rig. So many ideas.

Will look through your videos to see what you did to convert to lithium batteries? Thank you

Thank you! Informative! Would really like to see your Cost benefit analysis. Happy Bookdocking!

Backflushing cleans it? How often to change the filters?

Thank you, you are doing fine with videos by the way.

Thank you -extremely helpful

You are one of very few people who have installed a mini split into a vehicle powered by solar on KZbin. I am very interested to do this my self, however, I am still skeptical. How has your mini split been holding up? I feel if it is better (like most people who have them say it is), why aren't more people doing this instead of using inefficient and expensive 12V systems? Thank you for your video! I would LOVE to see how the whole electrical system, including how it works with the AC, power draw, how they are integrated, etc.

What was the total cost of your system?

What do you call high cost of install. I am building a 8X36 mini home and want to to be unplugged.

Great video awesome job explaining things

How long can you power your mini split with just battery power? Thanks in advance!

You always amaze me with your installation on whatever you do.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Excellent job young man! Appreciate the info.

What is the total cost for all the equipment?
