My guys don't care, they get paid whatever they do. It's just another job for them. They charge me for a service call sort of thing, gas is extra if needed. Doesn't take them but maybe an hour although on one it took a bit longer on the newer 2-head unit because one of the flare connections

Something I’ve been wondering as I read about everyone doing this on their own then having someone come and do the final connect/charging - is there any reluctance on the part of a professional HVAC guy being willing to do this? Isn’t is sort of like going to the garage and bringing your own pa

I have put in 2 condenser units with 6 (4+2) head units in the house, and have another I have to do soon. I hired out the vacuum and fill because the warranty wanted a licensed HVAC guy to do it but it is easy enough to do. The units have the gas in them so basically after pulling a vacuum fo

Sounds good Scott. I have a 30k BTU unit in my garage about 7 zones installed in my house. I did all the installs myself. Its only a few more tools if you already do automotive AC stuff. I think these are great units. I use them as primary heating and even leave my uninsulated garage at 55 in

I thought I'd relate my experience installing a 1200 BTU mini split HVAC system in an out building. The building is mainly a workshop but it has running water and I store ammo there so I wanted to protect from freezing and humidity. I bought a "Pioneer" min split system from High SEER for a bi
