Pet peeve, Why do people always use channel locks on brand new brass fittings?....why can't they just use the proper wrench that fits those fittings? As a certified automotive technician? For 43 yrs. If I paid a professional to install a mini split? (A/C UNIT) and they started to tighten a brass fitting using channel lock players ??? I would fire them on the spot. (Use the right tools for the right job) plain and simple. 🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻 Other than that? Great video & awesome information. Just take it as, constructive criticism.😊

Solar powered mimi split is not hard, even a battery powered split is easy enough. I converted my whole house HVAC to a mini split system that runs on solar and battery. You can power anything electrical with solar the only issue is having enough solar output. Ideally there really should be batteries in the system to stabilize the power output otherwise your split will cycle on and off with the sun or if grid tied it will cycle on and off the grid. Thank you for the video, keep up the good work.

Tad is the first HVAC pro to post a video installing a solar mini split that I’ve seen on KZbin - thus introducing this product to his audience with the creditably of a professional. Most of the other videos on solar powered mini splits are DIY installs or solar installers that are not HVAC pros. It just means more coming from a HVAC technician. That’s all I was saying.

I use a minisplit inverter air conditioner on my solar system. It's a 12k unit works great. These things are automatically soft start. No surge starting. When cooling or heating is called for the unit ramps up very slowly. Instead of cycling the unit just slows down and will finally shutdown when not called for at all. These are the absolute best kind of heat pump to be used off solar.

So nice to watch a pro installer guide us looky-loo's. Very good video! Mounting the solar panels: To max energy research the best angle based on your latitude. Build a semi-stud (only studs) structure with a vertical back for attachment to the shed and angled front for mounting all the panels at the correct sun angle. Sitting down low permits easy cleaning and negates possible wind damage. 🤠

@onefixitman 4 күн бұрын
You could install the panels as a overhang/lean to beside the building to create some shade to store items out of the sun. One 2x4 or 4x4 on each end with single 2x4 on edge between them and a ledger against the building for the other side. Use pressure treated. Or find some extruded aluminum. Set your proper angle and mount everything.

Pretty nice that they make a unit that is efficient enough to run directly off of your panels, and still cool a fair amount of space! I like the fact that they come pre-charged so you don't have to screw around with soldering lines, and vaccing down the system, and charging, and whatnot. That can literally take longer than installing the system in some cases! 😉

Nice video. Love that it can be powered with three solar panels. Definitely appreciate the snap unboxing, as well as the pro-tip on the solo wall jacks. As for the solar mounting, a simple frame between waist and shoulder high would seem to ease installation and cleaning. You might also consider mounting the panels to 2x4’s that can pivot on a bolt with a leg on the other end that can adjust the inclination for summer, spring/fall, and winter. Like the back of some chaise lounge chairs. That way it’s an easy adjustment once a quarter to increase the efficiency of the panels.

Ive had 3 of these for over a year. FOUR panels are a bit better install for cloudy conditions on the 12k (Panels produce generally 5-30% power depending on thickness of clouds) . On Cooling this will run with as little as 100W, 200W on Heat. As you become familiar, play with the AC power limiter in APP / "plug" icon on remote - this limits AC power input to 300W. There is a secret button sequence if you decide you want the AC Limiter always on. Enjoyed your vid, thx!

You need a torque wrench to follow the manufacturer's spec. You also need to evacuate the lines with a vacuum pump and gauges to remove air and water vapor from the lines prior to releasing the freon. A nitrogen pressure test may be beyond many DIYers. So, hold the vacuum for at least 20 minutes. A few hours even better.

While mounting on the studs is obviously the best practice, when your wall is 1/2 ply, there's no wrong place to hang it. No way in hell that air handler is falling off the wall mounted to the ply.

Fantastic segment. Thanks for this how to walkthrough. I always wondered about the word "mini" in the name mini split. Are there medium splits, large splits, extra large splits...? It's similar to that old expression when someone tells you "not too shabby" after doing something well. I've never heard someone say "that's too shabby, try better." Lol Thanks again for sharing your knowledge with us all Sir.

I like this and can see where this can be something you could use in a pump or solar house to keep everything protected from the cold. Dose it come or can you hook up a battery back up for night time use.

i was thinking about going with mini splits to replace my electric hungry central unit but I ended up going with inverter window units. Super super quiet and so easy to install I was up and running in 30 minutes. And a LOT less than the mini splits. My electric bill last summer was about $150 less per month in the summer. Only downside is no heat. But I use propane anyway.

Hey Taddy, hvac pro, 47kW pv not too far ne of you. Totally off grid. Running 2 ea 9k mini hp’s 31 & 30.5 seer. 2 ea 2 ton 20 & 16 seer and 1 es 1.5Ton 16 seer hp, 1 9K 23 seer hp in my work van with 1600W on roof😊. p/u 1 5/8 x 1 5/8 unistrut 40’ or so, prime/paint if you choose for rust prevention, bolted to roof using lag bolts, washers, winshield urethane or hvac silicone to seal and hold better/prevent rust/leaks, 3/8” spring nuts, 3/8” ss bolts 2.5” or so, large ss fender washers. 4 sets for one panel or if panels are side by side share hdwr. I use a large socket and a large punch to make washers “Belleville” or cupped. You need a 1 3/8” length (thickness of your frame) of gray 3/4” pvc or block of pt wood to go under washer if not holding another panel down. Tighten everything snug (not super tight to break glass) using anti seize on bolts to prevent galling.

These lines seem like the Mr Cool units that sealed end to end and don't need to be vacuumed? Do these lines also come with pre-filled freon?

Great video easy to follow easy to understand we just installed the same unit in the garage everything went smoothly thanks to your video. Only minor problem we're encountering is understanding the different features of the remote can't figure out how to get to darn thing to run with auto cooling turning on and off at the desired temperature. I Do you know there are fan settings just there's no clear information in the manual with the icons mean. Going to users or anyone has any guidance on how to set this up what the different icons mean it would be appreciated. Other than that we love the unit it's working great. Make it a great day and thank you

Do you have the Solar Aircon app running?? It's a bit easier to deal with and you can set schedules there.

NEVER LOOP THE LINE SET in vertical position It make a oil traps. And make unit not cool 100 % and you be replacing it faster.

Good job on the video bro. As far as your panels, have you thought of setting them in a remote location and make the adjustable as to the season? That would work well as the sun sets lower in winter. Good luck and thx

if a person can carry the outside unit then you defintely dont need those support brackets for the indoor unit. Indoor units are extremely light weight. you can hold it with one hand and push the pipes with other hand easily.

Hey very good installation what I do is spray some soapy water on the plug for the drain hole and it goes In easy .I am really interested in the solar ac units I think it's a game changer when it comes saving on electricity and your carbon footprint 14:39 15:37

solar ac? should be DC from solar. if ac means air conditioner, it's a heat pump (solar HP) and can heat too.
