MR COOL mini split ac REVIEW needed

[helenvee]

Last fall I bought a 12k mrcool DIY for my 12x24 shed. The shed is insulated. Had someone install it, he charged $250, pretty cheap to install. So far I've used it through the winter, haven't had a summer with it yet. I'm in Nashville, the heat on this worked pretty well for a Nashville winter. There were a couple weeks here or there when it got below freezing outside, and then the unit didn't quite cut it. The shed has a barn roof that's 13' at the peak, in the storage loft it was a comfy temperature but in the main part of the shed at floor level it was a little chilly. For Nashville, this was fine, the heat was sufficient for most of the winter. If you're in a place where winter temps are regularly at or below freezing, then you would probably need supplemental heat.

I realize this thread is a few years old, but I've installed 2 DIY MRCOOL mini splits in my workshop. My experience with MRCOOL has been positive; however, I don't have anything to compare it to.

I wrote a detailed blog about the installation.

One of the mini splits broke and I blogged about my warranty experience.

Both of my blog posts are completely unbiased reviews as I am not affiliated with MRCOOL whatsoever nor am I an HVAC professional.

I can't post the links to my blog to direct you to my posts as I am a new garagejournal member. My username will give you a pretty good idea of my web address.
