18000 BTU Mini Split Ductless Air Conditioner – 23 SEER - 12’ Lineset & Wiring - 100% Ready to Install - Pre-Charged Inverter Compressor – 1.5 Ton Heat Pump AC/Heating System - USA Parts and Support

The AirCon 18,000 BTU split system performs admirably, is simple to set up, and operates quietly. Even at high fan speeds, you have to pay close attention to hear the fan running. The installation manual covers a wide range of models and is unlikely to include accurate illustrations for yours. Electrical instructions should be improved in the installation manual. Two electrical cables connect the indoor and outdoor units in the 18,000 BTU split system. Two electrical cables are secured with tie down clamps in the indoor unit. Between the indoor and outdoor units, however, only one cable is required. Use the one with the red wire, as these are low-voltage cables that should never be connected to a 220 volt indoor unit. Despite the fact that I had never done it before, I purchased a $50 vacuum pump and a $20 manifold gauge set from Amazon and vacuumed the copper lines myself. There are numerous videos on YouTube that demonstrate how to remove the air from the lines. If you're handy, doing it yourself will save you a lot of time and money. The performance of the 18,000 BTU split system has exceeded my expectations, and I would recommend it to anyone.

The majority of 18K units are in the 17- to 18-million dollar range. 8-SEER (19 SEER) This one received a total of 23 HSPF. 11 SEER (3 SEER) 6 HSPF. Because I could have bought other 18K BTU units for $400 less, efficiency was a consideration in my decision. I wish it had built-in WiFi control, but there are other options, including the Cielo Breez, which comes highly recommended by Air-Pod. I've placed an order for a Con. br>br>Installation was simple and comparable to other heat pump installations. Pioneer vinyl channeling was used, along with a Senville wall bracket. Both of these items are ideal for this particular unit. I recommend that you use the thick vibration dampers that come with the unit for your feet. It's still very pleasant because you don't hear the outdoor unit run unless it's under full heat load. Using this in conjunction with newer high-efficiency lighting has resulted in massive energy savings. At the very least, the efficiency ratings appear to hold up in real-life situations. usage all over the world In my case, I had previously used two portable air conditioners and three traditional window units, so there was plenty of room for improvement. (Portable single-use device) Pipe air conditioners are the least efficient air conditioners available. They create a negative pressure in your home, allowing outdoor air to infiltrate the system, reducing its effectiveness. It is possible to de-energize a 12K BTU unit. Because of this, the unit's 'actual cooling effectiveness' [also known as BTU DOE] is rated as low as 6K BTU, resulting in much higher cooling costs and the possibility of the unit failing to meet the space's requirements. Just a quick rant for anyone considering a heat pump: the difference in efficiency and effectiveness between a portable and a heat pump is incredible. )br>br>All-inclusive All in all, I would buy one of these Air- I'll use air conditioning units again, and I'll think about it for other rooms in my house as well! A satisfied client!.

The service was readily available if it was required. It had been set up. it was a success For several months during the winter, it was turned off. I reactivated it less than 8 months after purchasing it. It was ineffective. I couldn't find a working phone number to contact the seller for service, and I didn't get any help from Amazon, where I bought it. Installer was paid nearly $600 to repair the unit - one of the hoses has a tiny leak A small amount of coolant escaped. The troubleshooting section of the installation manual was very vague. I've been on the phone with Amazon for the past four hours. There was no response from the seller. This item, or anything similar to it, should not be purchased from Amazon - They don't stand behind the advertised 5/7 year warranty. I haven't been able to get a response from anyone.

This was for my garage/shop area in Utah, which I wanted to keep cool in the summer and warm in the winter. I looked into a variety of different units and kits, and this appeared to be the best value. Two people are required to install the indoor unit, especially if your ceilings are high. The outdoor unit is attractive, and it was simple to mount on an Amazon universal wall mount. I connected the AC lines (it says to torque them, but I just tightened them as much as I could by hand with two wrenches) and pulled a vacuum with a vacuum pump, just like it says in the instruction manual (I bought a vacuum pump and a/c manifold gauge combo for $150 from amazon). After that, I opened the valves and allowed the freon to flow, and it cools and heats the space very well. Even if this were next to a window, the outside unit isn't very loud, and you wouldn't know it was running. My outdoor unit was right next to my main panel that had an extra 220 breaker in it, so the wiring in my situation was trivial. I received three quotes from a/c guys in the $5k range for them to install their unit or $3K for them to install a unit I purchased online. The amount of effort to install this is not close to worth $3k and does not require much specialized skill other than drilling holes and tightening hoses. I should mention, my outdoor unit was right next to my main I suppose getting the electrical run might be a problem for someone else doing this DIY, but I'd get a quote from an electrician to run the wire and connect it up. It's not going to be more than $200-$300. Depending on the distance between your panel and the outside unit, you could spend up to $300. br>br>Additional note: After a long and cold winter in Utah, this unit has really come into its own. I was concerned about the outside condensor freezing, but it has regularly been in the 20s and below, and this unit keeps my 700 sqft garage at a comfortable 60 degrees with no noticeable power consumption.

So far, this device has performed admirably. Installing it was a breeze. Both inside and out, it runs quietly. It appears to be well constructed, with clearly defined wire connections. It was simple to run the tubing and it fit perfectly. Apply a small amount of oil to the male threads of the connectors to make them easier to tighten. Use only a smidgeon of a drop and keep it out of the lines. Nothing should be placed on the tubing's flared face. Pull a vacuum on the system using a gauge manifold or a dedicated vac meter and let it sit for a while; I'll post an update after the AZ. This unit is currently housed in my three-car garage during the summer months.
