Questions about DIY Install of Mini-Splits
hi,
I've been lurking around here for a while now and have been reading all your great posts and have decided to go for it. So now I need your opinions on a few things.
I live in southern Oregon so the weather is pretty mild. About a month of 35ish degree weather in the winter and a couple of months of 100ish degree weather in the summer.
my home is 30 yrs. old and not that tight. I will be adding dual pane windows soon and will change my 3.5 stud walls to 6" and add more insulation.
I wanted to get 2 systems.... dual system for the back 2 bedrooms and a system for my front room, dinning room and kitchen which is all open and 550 sq. feet.
My idea was to get a 12,000 btu similar to this:

Anyway, I'll stop here and wait for comments.
Appreciate any ideas you may have. I'll talk about the two bedrooms in another post.
I will do all the installation and have a guy come out to do the R410A Refrigerant stuff.
Thanks for your help....Mike
