Hi DIY Jim! This was awesome and soooo helpful. We did two of our units. It was simple as you showed! One unit went together beautifully, but the second one fit together, but has a rattle now... 😱 If we push the top left corner in, the rattle stops. We don't see anything inside where the tube tumbles. The cover and drip pan are in the clips and the set screw is on... The rubber is put in correctly and all the screws are tight. Any ideas?? Thanks.

I cannot emphasize how incredibly helpful this video was and how appreciative I am for it. I moved into a house years back that has the same ductless mini splits you have. Although I regularly washed the filters over the years, I didn’t even think about doing such a thorough cleaning. I began noticing the units had bacteria, debris, etc. and it did not sit well with me. I came upon your video a few days ago by chance and decided to go for it. I just finished successfully dismantling and cleaning all of my interior units and what a difference. You made it so easy with your step by step walkthrough of what to do. You saved me a ton of money and now I am more comfortable with running these units especially with a heat wave on the way. I just saw you have a video on cleaning the Mr. Slim condenser coil outside unit and I will definitely be trying that next. Saw you have a bunch of other videos on various things of interest to me as well, so you’ve definitely got me as a new and loyal subscriber. Thank you so much DIY JIM.

This 73 year old woman did it herself with your expert guidance! (By the way - there is no option for a 'thumbs up' - only 'thumbs down' - of which there are 8.2K. Perhaps a glitch in the system??)

Thanks so much for this info. I'm disabled and I've hired Hvac people several times to service and clean my mini splits and they never did a decent job. I couldn't get the whole cover off but I cleaned it as best I could using your suggestions. It's a much better job than any of the guys that charged me $200! I have 6 of these in my house so it's a fortune if I pay to have it done and really sad when they rip me off. I'm so glad i won't be calling them again.

Special thanks to Jim for posting this video, it was SUPER HELPFUL. I just finished cleaning my 2009 LG mini-split, and the video gave me the confidence to dive in. It was really helpful for disassembling the unit to pull the fan blade and gain access to the inside of the heat exchanger coil. I would not have figured out the location of the hidden set screw inside the fan blade without this video. Took a few hours (working slowly), as I had a lot of black mold removal, and was my 1st time disassembling and cleaning. I also used a foaming type heat exchanger cleaner, but still needed a fair amount of rinsing of the coil, fan blade and internals. I followed up with a bleach rinse, then warm water. The A/C nit runs great now regarding cooling temp, air flow, and odor (none). Prior to this, the fan was so packed with dust/ mold, cooling efficiency was low, the fan wasn't rotating that well (slower and off balance), and smelled like a bad hotel room. The mold was causing some sinus issues as well. I will repeat this as needed, hopefully only every 2-3 years since it took me ~ 10 years to notice the issue. Seems it should take ~ 1.5 hours start to finish in the future since I know the sequence. Thanks again and good luck to all other DIYers.

Thank you! I watched 3 different videos today while cleaning my Mitsubishi and while they were all helpful in their own ways, if I were to only have one, I would certainly pick yours. Very comprehensive verbal and video instructions with the best views of the difficult-to-deal-with spots. It was nerve-wracking for me to pull off the cover (this was the first time it came off since the installation) and the clips were so tight I worried I would crack the cover.... but thanks to your showing the placement of the clips, I was able to get it off with no damage. Thank you again and again!

You did an EXCEPTIONAL job making this video! My husband, kids and I were literally miserable in an Oregon Summer heatwave of 98-111 degrees Fahrenheit and our mini split was barely doing its job...turns out the blower fan was completely caked in moisture caused overgrowth of what I can only assume is white mold!! 😳🙈🤢 (Last time I tried to use suction to unclog the condensation line I accidentally BLEW the stuff UP the line 😬😬 which I now suspect probably caused this overgrowth in the indoor unit?) It was barely able to blow any air! About an hour later we cleaned everything off and managed to put it all back in place. I can proudly say we now have our "chest freezer" of a living room back! =No more cranky husband 😂😅🙌🏼🙌🏼 Thank you! You likely saved the rest of our summer!! 😊🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Have had 4 of these Misubishi units for at least 5 years and live in Florida. Have had to clean the blower fins about every 4 months due to them fuzzing up. Have been swinging the vanes out to get to the blower to clean. This is a great video on the job done properly (which I remember doing originally). Motivates me to do it the right way again. Thanks for the excellent video.

I have that fuzz on my blower wheel.The ac tech said it is not mold.Should I believe him?

Not bad, I do the same without disassembly, spray the foam all over the coil and the blower, just let it drip down the drain. As you noticed the cleaning cover doesn’t make much of a difference.

There are plastic parts which have mold too and you cannot get to them without taking unit apart, including the part in front of blower and one behind coils in back.

Great Job. I have one in Every room of my House. I live in the middle of a big city(Sydney),,I also smoke allot. My Aircons are so Dirty. The Aircon Company suggested replacing each Unit at AU$3,000 per unit. So that's $21,000 to replace 7 inside Units, and more to clean Compressors. THANK YOU so Much for Your Tutorials. I can do it myself now and Save BIG BUCKS.

(and I've seen a bunch) Your camera was always pointed to the exact spots that you were referring to, you skipped no detail in the dismantling AND reassembly of the unit and it was because of YOU that I was not as nervous as I was about tackling this project! Just because of this video, I've subscribed ... Thanks!

As much as this video is well-presented and highly recommended -- I can't see doing this level of maintenance several times a year on the six air handlers we had in mind. We've owned a gas-fired baseboard heating system and window air conditioners since the 1980s. Even though we make enough solar power to run a heat-pumping system ...heading into our retirement years, we're sticking with what we have.

This is a very informative video. I was seriously considering a mini-split system for my 1934 house. I'm a single woman, aged 60, and seeing what I would have to do in every room every month, I'm pretty sure I would have to pay someone, which would add between $100-$200 per month to my heating/cooling bill. Glad I watched this!
