Well.. bought the Mr. Cool 12,000 and installed it yesterday.. much better.. fans were a waste of money but all is good now.. Appreciate everyone chiming in..

how good are these heat inverters? This is the unit I found that looks like the unit: https://www.airesconfort.com/product/mini-split-confort-total-heat-pump-inverter-wifi/ it looks like its $500 for the unit.. The Mr. Cool is $1,700.. what would a $1,200 difference be? looks like the Mr...

so.. its mr. cool for $1,700 and I install or Confortotal installed for $1400.. This is Texas so it gets hot and cold.. both units are 12,000 btu's.. googling Confortotal the only negative was a complaint it could not keep up with really cold.. below 32 which it does get to here from time to...

brand is that confortotal with the red, blue and yellow triangles... 12,000 btu with wifi... just got pictures of the unit..

turns out it is.. getting quotes at $1,400 - $1800 installed but can't get the brand they are using understood

ok.. electrician was out and running a proper power to the shed. He said he could have his AC guy put in a 12,000 split unit for $1K installed.. the unit has wifi, heat, etc.. are these all created equal or is the mr. cool unit better.. he said he would have his guy call me.. $1,000 installed...

I don't have any windows in it...

well.. I am the king of creative.. I found this one which looks like it would work for me: https://www.amazon.com/XTARPS-14-ft-30-Rectangle/dp/B01N4K5MCS/?tag=atomicindus08-20 PVC seems easy but don't want to block drainage on the bottom side.. and don't want wind to take it way.. was...

getting an electrician to come out to quote running another circuit or two.. looks like the lowes by my house have them in stock.. once I have power, install looks pretty straight forward.. if anyone has installed a mr cool, would love to hear how it went. the lines look to be preloaded and I...

This is basically my shed that I turned into my leather working shop.. the modifications are the door is a single medal door and is not centered.. its at the end and I made the shed longer than pictured.. there is a car port area for my riding lawmower and weedeaters, etc.. It has a sliding...

How would you put that on? just drape over the roof resting on the existing roof or build a frame for it? since the roof doesn't have a lot of pitch would worry about water pooling on it and weighting it down. I could pull it tight and staple it to the sides along the drip rail unless it...

the roof rafters are 2x6's with the existing insulation and its not compressed down. so.. top to bottom is.. 1) roll on roof 2) Water & ICE barrier 3)Solar Board Decking 4) 2x6 5) paper faced insulation between 2x6's 6) tongue and grove ceiling When measuring the ceiling with a laser...

I turn the fans up to a much higher temp to kick on to see what the AC is able to do

good point.. the portable AC is running during the hotter parts of the day and the fans kick on at higher temps... right or wrong, I thought the fans up along the roof would **** out how aire and draw the cooler air from down low where the portable AC is..

I actually forget if it was R19 or R13 but take from your post, it should be more.. would have to pull down the tongue and grove which is not a Huge deal but if that would help. Would it be worth it to tear down the ceiling and put r38 there or just do the split unit?
