    Hey y'all, good job making another Mr. Cool video. I was looking all over for install videos and one of yours really helped. I installed a 12k btu diy Mr cool in my 500 sqft shed-house and while it's incredibly efficient, I had to supplement the other side of the house with a portable unit. My added tip is go way overkill if you are trying to get the most out of one of these units!
    As far as the process goes, it's very straightforward, follow the instructions and buy the additional mounting kits. And if you're not confident about the electrical, you can always learn.
    Thanks y'all, also, the Texas Boys sent me 👍

    I have a 16x40 and have used a mini split for a couple of years. Very efficient. We bought 2 more this year for 2 small apts. Love them and I am also in Texas. Super easy. We did choose to keep the outside unit off the ground. Just make sure you buy the pre charged unit. I bought mine off of marketplace. 12k btu

    Good tip on installing the lines straight out the wall! Other reviewers say the line sets can be installed in either direction depending on applications but it’s clear yours were poorly done the first time.

    Nice work, looks legit. Now that we’re moved down here from Idaho we are looking at barndo style. I am taking a year off to build and this looks like a good thing. I take it they have bigger sizes for DIY? Y’all have come a long way over the years. You show and have way more confidence in what you’re doing and talking about now Beau. Our rental house is so poorly done I can’t even stand it....

    Hey y'all thanks for the video. You have given great advice on land exposure I looked in Texas for land the prices just quadrupled and taxes are just like new Jersey anywhere I looked ...oh and Florida it's just as bad car insurance cost double . I found the place in Alabama closing July 9th. ... Need to find the video how you converted the shed going to try to do the same thing. What's the shed company name when you have a chance please let me know thank you.

    Great summary! Do any of you have experience of using these units in a 'cold climate'? I have heard they do a much better job that in the past using the latest technology etc....
    We are going to be putting on a 500' addition to our house with a finished basement also. The main floor will have an natural gas fireplace that can supplement when needed, and in the basement I was thinking o fusing electric baseboard as supplement when needed.
    Our winters can get down to about -30 degrees on occasion, but more typical is in the single digits for overnight lower and teens during the days.

    Show us step by step how electrician did the connection so we can do it ourselves. I know you have to buy a separate breaker and plug both cables into then put the breaker back on the box. But I would need a visual to do it.

      Keep in mind you don't necessarily need a huge shed if you take advantage of the outdoor space. You can have one main shed and a kitchen shed or outdoor kitchen or separate bunkhouses for teens/visitors. Or build big covered porches. There are lots of different ways to set these up.

    It's really sad when you walk into something like install in your main house or worse, I know I've seen them. I then spent 12+ years doing Tech Support for installers and many installers who had to clean up after installs like that.
