Nice video. I would appreciate one going through the steps of install. There have been problems related to that install here at my housing development that I believe are related to connecticity. Thanks for explaining the component relationship of this 3 part system.

Mitsubishi vs. Mr. Cool? Neither. Consider the EG4. It runs on solar panels or household 110VAC. Cools in summer, heats in winter, on solar panels. My electric bill loves it.

Did a little reading in the manual and spoke with a couple more experienced techs- how involved is cleaning the blower wheel since, to my understanding, its resting in the "V" space above the evaporator coil

Mr. Cool warranty. Limited Lifetime* & 7 Yr Replacement* on Compressor + 5 Yr Parts 4th Gen DIY®s have an optional LIMITED LIFETIME compressor warranty*, a 7-year compressor replacement* warranty, and a standard 5-year parts warranty for the original registered owner.

No contact, the Mitsubishi is the winner. For the DIY guy, if they want to do it every 3 years, on the Mr cool system, more power to them. I'd rather have a system that I don't worry about for 12 years. One person commented on the audio quality, I have to agree.

Hello, I have a Senville SENL24CD/IX. I am needing to remove the squirrel cage fan but there is no access to the motor retaining screw. Based on the maintenance manual it looks as though the evaporator needs to be lifted up on the motor side to access the retaining screw. Unfortunately the refrigerant lines going through the wall will not allow me to raise the evaporator. Is this the design? It's basically impossible to do unless I pull the unit off the wall way high in the air just for routine service?

Just to feedback that your voice is super soft but the sudden music is loud.

Working for minisplit Brand innovair?

Does the position of the head unit relative to the outdoor unit affect the need for a pump? My understanding is that a head unit creates the condensate. We're getting varying quotes for a ductless mini split for a garden level basement. The head unit is on an exterior wall, about two feet above ground. So i assume gravity will take care of it. The line set coming out of the head unit, through the exterior wall, can be sloped. However, maybe the head unit being lower than the top of the outdoor unit somehow compromises that? I can't figure out why they are quoting for a pump. It's a well known, locally owned company. They just keep saying "you need it in a basement install"even after the site visit.

I am considering at 4-zone mini split ( having 4 wall consoles ) to air condition 2 large ( 400 sq ft ) bedrooms and 2 small bedrooms ( 200 sq ft ) on the same floor. The LG offering - LG-L4H36F09091212 - has much better dialed down capacity as it can go down to 8400 BTU for cooling and 10080 for heating. A similar 4-zone system for Mitsubishi - MXZ-4C36NA4-U1 - dials down to 11700 for cooling and only 18300 for heating. This is very important difference as my two small bedrooms will have very light load particularly in shoulder season. But Mitsubishi has an advantage - they offer 6K btu indoor ceiling cassette and LG has lowest as 9K. Surprisingly, Mitsubishi has no min cooling/heating rating for the ceiling cassette, while LG does say that its 9K wall console has min cooling/heating as 4270/4600 btu - which makes it competitive if not better from 6K Mitsubishi ceiling cassette for small rooms. Do you think I should opt for LG option , despite Mitsu being perceived as higher quality product ?

Mr Cool is easiest to install, but much pricier than a Medea mini-split and vacuum pump ($70 Amazon). You need the pump to suck down the supply lines and indoor unit before opening the pre-charged refrigerant. Also allows you to cut-flare the tubing for correct length rather than having to coil extra tubing like w/ Mr Cool. You can use the vac pump later on your automotive AC. Medea (China) makes most mini-split brands (Pioneer, Della, ...) except a few (Mitsubishi, Daikin, ...). A few mini's (ex. EG4) can run on a combo of grid plus solar panels (direct, no inverter needed).

You didnt mention anything about humidity. If you live in a very humid area, it makes sense to slightly undersize the unit so that it runs longer and will dehumidy.

Is a 2x6 wall deep enough to run a line inside? I’d like to run the inline set inside the wall for a few feet before I could get down into a space behind a kneewall and run the line set out the end of the house in a traditional way.

A Btu was originally defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of liquid water by one degree Fahrenheit at a constant pressure of one atmospheric unit. There are several different definitions of the Btu that differ slightly.

How far can I run the line set. I know that the more corners the line set has to bend around the shorter the total distance. Does this distance depend on the compressor model. I have a mitshabishe hyper heat.

Will not subject myself to this horrid audio quality. Bye.

I have a question looking and doing a mini split in my garage. My choices are bosh or mitsubishi?

Great video! I just installed a new Fujitsu mini split. Going to dump the condensate next to Condenser outside but leave a little space between both drain lines so I can check both flex lines from time to time to make sure they're both draining. Mark you're a great presenter and your videos answer alot of my questions. thanks for the great content! please keep the videos coming!

Can mini splits use Geothermal energy?

Does the indoor fan run continuously on each of these units, or is there a fan cycle option?

Great video, well stated.

Thanks for the hyper heat specs. It would be cool to know how they acheive almost 90% heat when zero degrees. What’s the air temperature output at zero degrees?

Dude audio stinks

As an HVAC sole proprietor I charge way more labor per hour to install a mini split that I would a furnace or an air conditioner. At least $1,000 just for me to get into an attic

I was reading through the manual of the hyperheat and saw it mention a gas line. Does it require gas for solid heating?

It seems you just glossed over the fact that the Mr. Cool is 115V and the Mitsubishi is 230V. That's a *BIG* difference! That's also the main reason the the Mitsubishi has such better ratings. Pretty much all appliances run more efficiently when they are made to use 230V. Also many people who install one or the other don't have 230V at the location they want to put one in. I don't think you emphasized this difference at all. It also makes the other comparisons pretty much invalid, making this a REALLY _"apples to oranges"_ comparison.

please sort out your audio setup.

Excellent video. I'm currently having a garage built, and I'm trying to decide between through-the-wall and mini-split for cooling... and maybe the one or two days a year I might need heat, here in Florida. The main issue with mini-split seems to be cost, and a big part of that is cost of installation, so I'm starting to understand why Mr. Cool is a bit pricier than some -- it's got nearly everything you need in the kit and the pre-pressurized lines allow self-installation, at least if you're experienced at home improvement/repair. Thanks for making this, it's really helpful.

If I have wi-fi adapters on all the heads and using the Kumo cloud app, will the system work if the internet service is down? It seems like that was the case the last time I used this system.

Effing false title. These are not made in the US.

Could not continue to watch this video due to the sound issues 😮

Since this is a prepressured…. Are you not allowed to cut the copper lines down so there won’t be to rolled up?

I am about ready to buy a mini split heat pump system. But don't know if I should get two 12K BTU units or a 12K and a 9K. Those I'm looking at are both Pioneer Diamonte series, so same features, same 19 SEER, etc. Either way should cover the 18,200 btus required to heat and cool my small home (that's based on only square footage… I may need at least 20,000 based on poor insulation and windows. The price difference of the two units (12k vs 9k) is only about $20 currently for the prices I'm looking at with Home Depot. (The 18K is $300 more than those and the 24K is out of the question for me.) Of course, I'd be happy to pay a little more to get the second 12k, ***** UNLESS THE 12K WILL COST SIGNIFICANTLY MORE TO RUN THAN A 9K.***** That is the important question that I need answered. A 12K would go in the larger Living Room/ Kitchen area; The small bedroom/bath area will get either a 12K or 9K. BTW: So far it looks more cost effective to get two units than to get one larger unit that feeds two blower heads. Plus with two separate units I'll always have a backup and I can shut one down in mild temps. Also one larger unit feeding two blowers will require longer lines which adds cost.

The Mr Cool leak detection is useless as you will not find a HVAC company to work on these units…

What's the difference between Mitsubishi Electric PAC-US445CN or Mitsubishi Electric PAC-US444CN?? Thanks

👍

3 questions 😅 this cielo max will make any non-wifi enabled unit, essentially wifi-enabled correct? or does the unit itself have to be wifi-enabled to begin with? 2- can one cielo max be used to operate two different heads? or do you need one cielo for each head? 3- can you wire this to the electricity cables that run to a traditional thermostat and power it that way? thank you!

The Mitsubishi is not aimed at diy, however in the small size single head units they are diy adjacent, the units come precharged you just have to evacuate the linesets, which is not that hard, and the equipment is pretty cheap. When you get into the multi zone units from them they get exponentially harder for a diy install with having to add freon to makeup for your linesets and your indoor air handlers, vs the mr cool, which seems like its pretty much diy no mater what. The other thing to note is that decibels are not a linear scale, every 3 DB is roughly twice the noise, so every plus 3 is significant.

If one goes with mini splits in a new build, does every room need one?

I was thinking of buying the central 2.5 ton unit does anyone know how reliable these are ?

Mitsubishi mini splits way too expensive for the amount of problems you’re going to have in the cost of getting those problems fixed

I’m not sure where all this information is coming from, but I work with these systems almost daily. From my experience, Fujitsu is noticeably quieter than Mitsubishi, and their customer support is more responsive. However, one downside of Fujitsu is their ceiling-mounted units, which are more labor-intensive to install and have fewer features compared to Mitsubishi's ceiling mounts. Aside from that, Fujitsu is quieter all day long, their customer support is better, they are more cost-effective and efficient, and I have three supply houses fully stocked with parts and new units. I moved away from Mitsubishi during the hype when parts and units were nearly impossible to get for months. Now, I can visit my local Fujitsu dealer and get three heads and a condenser the same day. As for durability, the tests seem to favor Mitsubishi, but I haven't noticed any significant difference between the two when installing or running them over time. While I’ve seen more Mitsubishi units break down, there are also more of them out there, so it might be an unfair comparison. All in all I think Fujitsu is the way to go and that's coming from someone who has installed and serviced them both.

I have a hyperheat system and kumo cloud. Installer for the second set of units i got did not install the thermostat. I'm wondering if I should just get the MK whatever thermostat that comes with the unit or just get this since it's cheaper?

I’m looking at a new house and they have already roughed in the piping and wiring for an LG system. If I was to move to Mitsubishi would the wiring be the same and would the condensate line also line up.The units are on interior walls so changing things at this point would be challenging. Thanks in advance.

Thank you very much...

I would not try diy-unless you are gifted with various mechanical and electrical skills and you have a friend to help. Approximately $14000-17000 for 3 zones. Installed Samsung The ac is not the most attractive item hanging in the room, but I guess function over fashion. It looks more modern/industrial than my decor. I did not pay attention to size of box hanging in a 20x15’ room. I would have picked a smaller size if I had known. I am thankful for the relief though. Very thankful.

if you have 2 1800 sq ft homes and you had a new ac unit put in one home and whatever minisplits that would be required for the other home and they ran the same amount of time and everything was equal would the minisplits save more on your electric bill?

I have the Breez Max, but you didn't talk at all about the product tiers. Specifically you didn't mention anything about the Cielo's ability to coordinate the rooms via multi-zone mini-split control and also you made no mention of the Comfy Max feature - both these things are why you'd purchase the Max over the lower price point products.

I have a question. I had 5 units installed a few weeks ago and the unit in our bedroom is making some loud popping/cracking noises all night. We have to turn it off to sleep. We've been told that the unit experiences expansion and contraction and that is why it makes these loud noises. Apparently, Mitsubishi is aware of this and that there's nothing that can be done. Has anyone else had this problem?

I Bought a 12K BTU 115V Unit that Came with One indoor Handler. Can I Add Another Indoor Unit To Cool/Heat Another Small Room? If So, How? Do I Have To Get The Same Make/Model Of Indoor Unit? Or Can I Get One From A Different Maker?
