These things have already reduced my electric bill by about 50% – if you’re handy, you can install them yourself – BUT, THE THERMOSTAT ON THE REMOTE IS USELESS – [updated June 17, 2017] – I’ve had two units for about a year or more now, thus far no freon links with a DIY job. The dual zone outside unity seems to be more sturdy and well built (less vibration noise, thicker metal), but one of the indoor units sometimes drips water down the wall. It’s not a problem with the drain line, it’s a problem with condensation formation on the freon lines and dripping down. The other indoor unit doesn’t have the problem and the one with the problem is the only one with the pipes folded in to run behind the unity then exit into the wall. My other two units have the pipes exiting straight out the wall and they don’t have the condensation problem. Over all, no regrets. The two units (one single zone and one dual zone) will have paid for themselves within the next 6 months, partly because of the better seer rating but mostly because I’m now only have to heat and cool the rooms/areas I’m spending time in. One HUGE BENEFIT OF THE DUCTLESS systems; my respiratory/breathing/allergy problems, and my dogs, have been reduced by about 90%. Not exaggerating This is why I removed my central system and used these ductless systems. If you count medical bills and prescriptions, I’ve saved over $1200 a year, and improved quality of life. They’re not the perfectly designed, but they provide a great return on investment.

The unit came in a timely fashion The delivery company was very efficient and helpful with the unloading. Instructions were straight forward, no parts missing, and installation was simple. The only thing I recommend – cut off all the flares on the coper tubing and put on your own flares. I had 1 that would not seal correctly and had to trim it off and flare the end myself…not a big deal… The units (3 head) have worked perfectly since installation. May get 1 more for the other end of the house.

Just installed this 2 zone unit. I called to get the extended line set at 25′ vs the standard 16′
Followed the directions step by step and used Nylog sealant.
No issues during install and everything came out perfect. Both units are functioning awesome. QUIET AND COLD or QUIET AND HOT.
Left this photo as an idea for anyone not wanting a metal stand or pad. I just got the “L” brackets and mounted them to some 4×4 posts. Make sure you dig down at least 2ft and backfill with some rock on bottom and concrete. Then make a support joist between the two posts for extra measure. This way you can build a nice dog house around it for winter months and run it in even colder temps.
UPDATE: The temperature outside is 4F or 28 below freezing! It is still pumping out heat strong. This performs awesome and is well worth the money spent. My electric bill hasn’t increased enough for me to even notice. Super Efficient!

These are fairly new around here. The installation cost me 1500 on top of the purchase price. I love the fact that I only run the units in the rooms I am using. I split the system into 9- 9 -12. The 9000 models are whisper quiet and keep each bedroom at a perfect temperature. The larger unit is in my living room kithen combo area and it can be heard running. The noise level is akin to a window fan. Still way less noise than my old central air unit. The only “con:is the air conditioning can be too cold when running downstairs. I know it said I needed a 12000k unit for 500 square feet and too cold I guess really wouldn’t be a complaint for most people, lol. The heat was perfect while it was cold. The costs are also much cheaper than my central air.
Now for the only cons I can see to purchasing this and it would not prevent me from purchasing again.
1. I had to purchase longer line sets, it really doesn’t make clear that the line sets that come with it aren’t long enough if you are running units from a 2 story condo. I had to purchse 2 more at a cost of about 80 each.
2. The outside line set covers they sell here to go with them? Don’t bother. They are expensive at about $60 a set and still weren’t enough to cover my outside lines. I have done some research and am having the seamless guttering person out to run matching colored downspots to cover them. They willl blend in much better and look much tidier. If your siding is a common color you could go to a home improvement store and buy down spouts yourself for about $10 apiece.
