Well i gave up the handyman business. It was good to me but i used my profits to build a 20 acre rv park and develop a dumpster rental business. So long handyman, I learned a lot from you.

[@TheHandymanBusiness]

That's awesome. Congratulations. Where is the RV park?

[@imout671]

@TheHandymanBusiness Kellycreekrvpark.comin Alabama 2 hrs from Panama city Florida

[@TheHandymanBusiness]

I'm jealous. Looks like an amazing place.

[@tcardinal95]

Way to go!! Glad to hear it!! RV parks are the way of the future for sure! Not enough housing to go around and home aren’t getting any cheaper! Me and my wife lived in a tiny house after we got married for 5 years starting back in 2017 and we loved it! I always wanted an rn park because I new it was the future but it’s so expensive to get into! Hope you have a great time! Be good to those Tiny Home people!!

[@imout671]

@TheHandymanBusiness well come see Me if you buy another sail boat. You'll probably drive right by me

[@blairliptak2094]

I am a Journeyman HVAC technician and I am very impressed with his technique of this installation he did everything correct the only thing he didn't use is a micron gauge to prove 500 microns but I believe with running that pump for 45 minutes and proving a good pressure test he was fine

[@madhatter55778]

Without a micron gauge nobody will ever know. Could be perfect and run for years no issues, or the compressor will crap out.

[@Fjjrifjfnrk]

We always used an adjustable torque wrench. I'm not sure about putting anything on those flare fittings.

[@wcraft]

"Decision Paralysis" is a real thing. Steve Jobs was famous for always wearing the same black turtleneck and jeans everyday. When asked about it, he said he did that to keep his wardrobe options simple - a few less decisions to start the day. It might allow for one or two larger decisions later on.

[@chadjelliston5652]

“The paralyzation phase” that can’t be more true. I’ve always tried to find a word for it when you’re so busy you don’t even know where to start. Or, you try and make a few people happy but don’t have enough time to do them all so you do some of each. Great video!

[@johndavidson5564]

Hey handy, Long time viewer and hvac guy. If you are going to be installing these more often Harbor freight has a 2 cfm CORDLESS vacuum pump now and hvac techs have said it's perfect for mini splits. I would highly recommend getting a vacuum gauge if you don't have one. Industry best practice now is to pull to 250 microns and make sure it doesn't rise above 500 in 15 minutes. Also not familiar with tosot but some brands have a kick stand for the Head unit so you can service the lineset but they are probably more pricey. been watching for a long time and now I've gotten a few months of hvac videos from you so I feel spoiled haha. Great video bud.

[@JohnGalt6533]

HVAC is such a money maker.

[@keitho77]

Lost tool time 🙄. Been there!! That's why everything has to go back to its correct place. Time = Money

[@jknocal]

You can make a jig out of plywood that will make starting your hole in the brick way more easy and precise . It's just a piece of plywood with a hole the size of the bit that keeps it from walking on you

[@neoamishdude]

Im a big advocate of bundling and securing your wires/line set with tape/zip ties and a bracket or two. Can save a lot of hassle in the event something bumps your equipment or bad weather beats your equipment up.

[@NewVisionsTristan1]

Dude my head is spinning. That's where I'm at right now. First year back in business for myself. Newer dad added on that. Work piled on and can't even get to it. Thank God just need to organize...

[@fastidioushandyman901]

Would recommend a flaring tool (to easily shorten the lineset at times) and a micron gauge but great install otherwise! We pressure test all of our AC units and minisplit installs to about 510 PSI to ensure no leaks, then vacuum down the system to about 300 microns and perform a decay test. We also pull schrader cores for faster evacuation, pressurize it to about 10 PSI of refrigerant, pull the hose and replace the valve core, and fully open the refrigerant valve.

[@Rgarcia713]

Long time no post, glad you still hustling

[@TheHandymanBusiness]

I still post every week on my main youtube channel.

[@ericcostello4224]

I installed my own from amazon, glad I saved 3,000$ :D!

[@jdshear01]

Don't forget to ring that...15:03 and enjoy Handyman's pure delight!

[@karelmontel9284]

The electrical setting was not quite explained it. There are minisplit now of 1 ton 120 volts, 14 awg wire from the condenser and 16 awg from the evaporator. You can add it to virtually any circuit in the house just like a 15 amps outlet.

[@bassyaker7256]

I have been wanting to see someone good do an install of a mini split, thanks handyman!! Keep up the good vids! Also what are those anchors you used for the outside bracket?

[@watomb]

I’ve put in a couple when customers ask. I don’t have the overhead of maintaining warehouse or crews. One thing the control board is expensive so I install surge protector at quick disconnect

[@billwilliamson3031]

Only extra tool I would have is an appion core removal tool as to not lose your vacuum or any Freon because you never have to disconnect it until you are finished. 80 bucks on amazon. Obviously you get the job done but maybe you haven’t heard of that particular tool. Just FYI

[@TheHandymanBusiness]

Thanks.

[@bubalub412]

You truly are the worlds greates handyman. I just dont know how you do it while married. My wife makes everything seem so impossible. I enjoy learning from you.

[@richlikeg3722]

It’s funny, I charge same price here in Houston and the job was a lot more complicated to include electrical work but I never got a call back lol. Too many competition here.

[@JonnyDIY]

Nice job Handy, easy money 💕👏👍 I get like that too when I have two many things to do I just shutdown and don't do any for a couple days 🤣 gotta recharge and reset, rest the old brain too

[@cousin_JACK]

We are happy for you Handyman. We need you man 😅

[@cliffpalermo]

Por15 2 part epoxy last tub i did, still perfect. Rust-Oleum i have had it come off with use

[@TheHandymanBusiness]

What one did you use. I have used their paint on rust. I didn't know they made one for tubs.

[@frankmurphy5]

You could've saved time by mounting the unit on those existing command strips. You're welcome 😂

[@bobcalder724]

Was the lineset not long enough to better center the indoor unit for improved air distribution?

[@samlyons3552]

Thanks , I learned something......PTAC units are what stand the test of Tiempo

[@-Kreger-]

1 hour looking for lost tools :) man I really relate to that.

[@50DesotoCoupe]

Will you be doing a video of that tub resurfacing process? I was contemplating it for a bathroom project I have going on..

[@TheHandymanBusiness]

It should be out in a few days on my main channel

[@mr_DIY]

I hate this drilling crowns. Use diamond ones to prevent destruction of the wall

I forgot my sockets.

[@stevusbeavus720]

So mini splits don't require gas? Just a vacuum?

Wish I could cut my “looking for lost tools” down to an hour. 🙄😫

IMPROVE YOUR VIDEOS - Love Your Video, however if you want to make it better for your viewers, TURN OFF MIRROR MODE ON YOU CAMERA OR PHONE. Everything appears backwards to your viewers when using your selfie camera and it really detracts from your overall video content! Keep up the great work!

While the units bay advertised as diy. The epa strongly disagree when it comes to releasing or adding charge to it.

[@TheFacilityguy]

That brick dust is the worst.

[@filicefilice]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@dantheman20127667]

Are those things pre charged? No refrigerant liscense needed?

[@TheHandymanBusiness]

They all come pre charged.

[@stevenohnsat7535]

@dantheman20127667 You still need an EPA certification to work with it; but yes they come pre-charged. The one caveat is that they are pre-charged for a pre-determined lineset length. If you go over that, then more refrigerant would need to be added.

[@dantheman20127667]

@stevenohnsat7535 OK, same as a "full sized" split system then

[@cwrowe]

Is your drill a 3/8 or 1/2?

[@TheHandymanBusiness]

The chuck? 1/2

[@cwrowe]

That’s what’s up….

[@randypaul5427]

What type of license is required to install minisplits for a customer in your area? I have a basic EPA 608 but I use it for my own installations on my own properties.

[@TheHandymanBusiness]

Drivers license

[@Resist_JWO_1984]

​@TheHandymanBusiness There have been changes for 2024. In order to legally install a mini split system, you are now also required to have forklift license as well.

[@HvacWizard]

Handyman messing with our industry. Thats ok. I can still service em when they break 😂

[@3gcraftsman]

Why’d you mount it so close to the wall/window?

[@TheHandymanBusiness]

Didn't want to see the line sets run across the wall. Line sets are only 16 feet. Its a rental.

[@3gcraftsman]

@@TheHandymanBusiness thanks

[@markyrizzo2283]

Who do they call when it breaks? lol

[@TheHandymanBusiness]

5 year warranty. After that it's cheaper to replace it then repair it.

[@semperfi5861]

🇺🇸🤘 Heck Yeah Handy Dandy 🤘🇺🇸

[@sloth9669]

Most states you need electrical license to do that work.

[@TheHandymanBusiness]

Thats just silly.

[@JimmydaGooch]

Most states you need a license to drive too, but we stopped giving a shit about that now in most places 😂

[@TheHandymanBusiness]

My city stopped enforcing minor traffic infractions. No license plates needed anymore. You can steal from stores now too.

It's $5,000 per head around here and most other places too.
