My old central air conditioner broke down right when covid hit and it was the best gift that ever happened. I ended up getting ny entire house with Mitsubishi split units with hyper heat and AC. Ordered right before supply shortages. Best thing I've ever done in my life. Got 6 splits. Every room is now the exact temperature I want it and humidity in the summer is always perfect. Below 74 degrees feels ice cold because the house is never humid.

Very smart, no vacuum needed in that everything even the lines are pre vacuumed. All seals thoroughly when you put lines together so the vacuum is not lost, very smart.

I have had the 36k unit for three years in our very open concept house and it heats/cools the entire 1,800sq ft very well. Super easy install. My father-in-law who is a contractor was skeptical and thought I should pay someone to install a mini-split but after I did this he realized just how easy it was. I did everything myself except mount the indoor unit. He helped with that. Otherwise it's an easy one person job. Saves big on the electric bill in the winter vs the baseboard we had before.

2 things on this install, having done a few of these: 1) You need to check for leaks at both connection points i.e. at the condenser and where you joined the lines on the outside of the 2nd story (you may have done this off camera) 2) You need to coil the excess lineset horizontally as detailed by MrCool to avoid oil gathering in the linesets.

mr cool easy connect pipes are only ones does not need to vacuum or flare , unless your a pro to shorten the pipes and solder the easy adapters back for new adjusted size...i wouldn't recommend it if you don't know what your doing in first place...its why it cost much more than classic version that requires proper flaring and proper vacuum who are not afraid doing it if they spending thousand less, but it would make more sense just solder pipes together like what hvac guys does in central units outside and inside , they use copper couplings ...not sure why we are not allow to do it from condenser side when flare pipes always gonna leak, no matter how perfect you get it flared since it wear and tear through out a short time period in year or 2 that they use same way for walk in freezer storage units and coolers in gas stations always breaks down all the time in refrigerant leaks due to inside unit pressures gets high when something gets clog in pipes from outside with moister that can cause damage to evaporator...believe me, pin hole pipe burst is pain of b....to fix it

Nice installation and video; I've been researching my own installation this year, probably using a multiposition air handler. I'm a professional HVAC engineer myself, and this is as clean an installation as I'd expect from one of my professional HVAC contractors. Maybe you did this after filming, but I'd recommend bolting the condenser to the base and covering the last remaining feet of the precharged lines. I don't believe those white lines are UV stable and I'd expect the exposed areas to degrade in a few years exposed to the sun. The lazy fix is to coat them with exterior latex house paint, but there are sleeves that are designed to cover refrigerant lines, something like the one you have on the wall, only a flexible sleeve.

If for a diy’er just wants to do it for fun, this is a good system for that. Price wise, Mr cool is sky high for what is provided. Mirage (of USA) brand is readily available nationwide now, and has discontinued this nearly identical genre of equipment (Ventus) as the one in this Mr cool install, for a higher seer and better air handler new genre (called Ventus X). I can install two equivalent units for the price of one of the Mr cools and still have change left. Warehouses in LA, San Diego, Phoenix, Dallas and Florida soon. I’ve worked with them over 5yrs now, installed 125+ plus units of theirs, and all the pro hvacr guys are now discovering the real value, no hype.

Nla setup like this wouldnt be legal. Even if performed by a certified hvac installer. The refrigerent lines need to be vacuumed before allowing refrigerent to flow in.

Great video - very helpful! One question: is it necessary to install a separate disconnect or can the electrical be run straight into the main breaker box? I'm planning on installing this in my garage where the main breaker box is. Thanks!

N.E.C. article 440.14 states disconnect must be in sight and readily accessible so if your panel meets those requirements it’s acceptable

Did you have to put any freeon in the low side of the unit for cooling? If so, how do you know the quantity of freeon and the psi and what kind or number freeon did you have to use?

awesome video! Question, for the electrical, what double pole amps circuit did they recommend, or you electrician installed for the unit? Looking to get a 4 zone, or maybe a 3 zone, then another independent one once the other room is ready, so trying to plan out a subpanel amps

Any thoughts on the base that the outside AC unit sits on? Ive seen other DIYs lay a small concrete pad. Thanks!

If the unit is a heat pump as well it needs to be elevated for defrost cycle in the winter.

would love to see the multi room setup. Is there a dehumidifier?
@renegade_patriot

All of these have sensors which automatically regulate humidity when AC is on. They also have a separate dehumidifier settings which dries out the air and uses less power then running full AC. They are packed with sensors and are leaps and bounds ahead of regular central AC units.

Does this need to be installed next to a breaker box for the electrical portion? Or where did that break box come from? Also what length is that hose that you have? 16ft or 25ft?

Would of been nice to if you told us the Size wire for the whip AWG and breaker size for this unit.

If you live in an area that snows, and your system also does heat, you want snow legs for your unit to get it above your snow line. A wall mount could also take care of this.

Nice video... my concern is the placement. Why did you out on the right and not the left? Half the cold air will be blowing and sinking down the stairs.
@SilverCymbal

I agree you would think and center it if you can. I wanted to avoid a horizonal run and you need 6" above the unit which I didn't have in the center. Now that I have been using it a week, you would never know it's not centered and the hallway below is a mudroom that got pretty hot, so I got the added benefit of some cooling there.

Will it cool a small home even if it's just 1 head unit say in the Living room but you have a kitchen with a small opening behind the Livingroom? Or do you need multi zone?
