This the best video for Mr cool by far great job!

[@gotductlessusa]

Awesome to hear!

[@RoadKing65]

Thank you so much for this install. I try to watch those DIY channels but really get nothing of value as there is always a dog or music playing or you have to hear a story of their life. The step by step instruction preformed by the knowledgeable technician was very clear. The information about the line set was an important tech tip .

[@gotductlessusa]

This is helpful feedback! We're really happy to hear that this video helped you. Feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions about the install!

Oversizing a mini split to a certain extent is fine. They ramp down to in effect reduce cooling capacity.

[@gotductlessusa]

This is true. The main concern with oversizing is humidity control.

[@reneramirez17]

Awesome video!!! Because the line sets are round (Diameter) sitting horizontal makes a difference? My line sets didn’t come with protected caps. does that damage the refrigerate? Nothing seems to be damage but I’m curious.

[@gotductlessusa]

Yes, sitting horizontal makes a huge difference due to oil traps. That destroys the compressor over time. No, the caps are just protective. You have to open the valves to access the refrigerant

[@KeithEtheredge87]

Great video! Question... You show mounting the condenser unit on a wall bracket and talk about the importance of coiling excess line set length under the unit to avoid creating oil traps in the line. How does that work with a concrete pad / ground installation? I don't think we have the luxury of space under the unit to do that anymore.

[@gotductlessusa]

Maybe consider installing your outdoor unit a little further from the house to allow the line-set to horizontally lay coiled behind the unit?

[@geojaya]

Have a question - I need to install 12 k unit in one bed room inside the rooms, so I cannot run line set outside directly but rather through attic to condenser, which means line set will go vertically up from air handler unit to the attic . Is that ok.

[@gotductlessusa]

Yes, the line-set can go vertically as long as you have a plan for the condensate line. That either needs to be go directly outside or you need to install a pump to push water to wherever you can drain the water.

[@RF1octane]

So this unit is a 115V what kind of electrical connection do i need to get a quote for? 20amp single pole with a 30amp ac disconnect? Or will a 60am disconnect do?

[@gotductlessusa]

60 amp disconnect is most common. 20 amp single pole breaker

[@djfergusonjr]

@@gotductlessusa Shouldn't it be a GFCI 20 amp breaker?

[@banovak611]

Hi. I like your videos and the info is great. I have a question. I am located in northern Ohio and our winter temps go below zero often. I have a 24x48 out building that I built a room inside of that is 12x24. The walls to the room are insulated with R21. The ceiling is R30. And the floor is concrete with R10 insulation. There are no windows and one insulated man door to the room. I need to be able to maintain 80° F in this room year round. I'm looking at 12,000 btu hyper heat models in either mitsubishi or Cooper hunter. What are your thoughts on the units? Also it seems that mitsubishi has 2 different units avaliable part numbers are. MZ-FS212NA MZ-FS212NAH Not seeing a difference between these two units. Thanks in advance

[@gotductlessusa]

Thanks for your comment! It is hard to compare a Mitsubishi and a Cooper hunter. Mitsubishi has fantastic mechanics and equally great tech support, while Cooper Hunter is a low-end budget brand with minimal tech support. We have seen Mitsubishi's last up to 30 years, and we have seen Cooper Hunter's compressors die within a week. Price is probably the only thing CH has over Mitsubishi. However, add up service and maintenance charges, and you very well might be at the same price. The difference between MUZ-FS12NA and MSZ-FS12NAH is that the MSZ-FS12NAH comes with a built in base pan heater on the outdoor unit. This ensures your system is not freezing up when there is snow/ice. Hope that is helpful!

[@antalkaroy6820]

If I want to heat it outdoors, there should be a heating element. We need a machine that can heat up to -22 degrees Celsius.@@gotductlessusa

[@antalkaroy6820]

Master and the vacuuming should not? 2 years and the compressor will be short-circuited!!!!!

[@gotductlessusa]

Thanks for the comment! This is a DIY system that has quick connections and pre-charged line-sets. Since the lines and the equipment are never exposed to the elements, and they come pressurized, there is no need to vacuum at start up. That is why it is DIY!
