I have put in 3 LG heat/cool systems, total 8 head units, ordered from AC Wholesalers in FL somewhere. Easy install, 20A or 30A 220V circuits. (Don’t forget a power shutoff at the condenser) Nothing difficult about the install if you can get the lines in or through the wall (2” hole) and power to the condenser. The only real work is drilling the line hole and running power and mounting the unit brackets. I hang the condenser on the outside wall because of storm surge flooding concerns.
I have my AC guy come to pull down the lines and charge the system. I think for the warranty you need that. I put in a 24k BTU system with 2 12k heads last summer, I think with all the lines and such it was about $2200 or so plus a coupla hundred for my guy to spend a coupla hours fooling with it. A single unit will be much less. Look on their website and order one. Mitsubishi is supposedly “the best” but these LGs have been fine though I have fried 2 controller boards in the big system due to lightning hits nearby. You might consider a surge protector in your system somewhere. --FT Sent from iPhone > On Jun 27, 2020, at 9:06 AM, Dan Penoff via Mercedes <mercedes@okiebenz.com> > wrote: > > As my standby generator install is wrapping up and a new 4 ton Lennox AC > system is going into the house, I’m getting close to the point of installing > a mini split system to take the edge off the heat and humidity so I can work > in the garage without sweating buckets. > > I got a quote from my AC guys for a Lennox 12,000 BTU system, which I knew > would be expensive - $3200 expensive.
