DIY Mini Split Step by Step Install: Save Thousands of Dollars...

This is a DIY Mini Split AC install I did to cool my garage in Florida. I am building my own garage office/studio space.. It costs kind of a lot to have a professional install these things, but it turns out you can buy reasonably nice machines for only a few hundred bucks! Here's how to make it go.

This project was a lot easier than I thought - it starts to get scary when you hear you have to 'pull a vacuum' on the line and connect coolant lines, but just take it step by step and also watch this video, and also this other video from ‪@LRN2DIY‬ together you pretty much cant screw it up! • DIY Mini Split Install...

"bolted the thing to the thing" I thought I was the only one who said that! 😂

I am in alabama, which is like florida, except it gets to 20f in the winter, and +30f in the summer due to our hot air coming from texas instead of the ocean. I am getting shipping containers for storage next week, and was examining my options. I didn't want to pay the options, and knew I could do something with a vacuum pump to solve this, in fact I bought one for $15 last year at a yard sale. Your video really brought together all of the bits that I will need to install some mini splits.

Wow Nice job 👍 seems it was a bit of a pita getting lines all the way up in there .. BTW what is the amps requirement for that unit .. nice that it’s 240v you can add like a few solar panels with micro inverter directly to it and offset the electric use..

Core question, where did you install the water exhaust line? These mini splits need to expel water. I had to run a separate line outside.

Sorry but I am going to be that guy. Your install looks like crap. I'm in Florida and also did my own install. Why on earth didn't you use lineset covers (linehide) on the outside wall? You can even paint them to match the house. It would look so much better than that eyesore you created. Guess what the number one fail is on these? Not torquing the flares to the correct spec. They end up leaking. I bought an A/C style torque wrench for my install.
