The attention to detail on this project, especially around air sealing the exterior envelope is commendable. I work on high performance and passive house multifamily projects and the types of details you are installing are exactly what we should be seeing for efficient and resilient buildings. One issue we see is that as you say in the video, these types of minisplit systems can be way too over sized for smaller homes. You may find that come summer time, you struggle to fully dehumidify the home. The issue at play is that the systems have so much output that they can meet the cooling demand for the building before they have a chance to effectively dehumidify. If that becomes an issue you could try only running one of the minisplits and leaving the doors open so that the cooling demand for the building is better matched to the output of the unit. You just need to ensure good air circulation between the spaces.

As a structural engineer, drilling such large holes through the plates is a no-no, but an easy fix is to strap across using CS16 straps on either side. Or using 2x blocking between the studs just below the top plate and strapping across there. Ditto for the sole plate.

Interesting video and very instructional. A couple of suggestions though: Leaks should be checked after the valve off the unit is opened. It does no good to check for leaks if the system isn’t pressurized. Also, even though the unit is pre charged it is a MUST to put the evaporator units and lines under vacuum. These lines introduce air and dirt into the system otherwise. Any moisture and dirt from the manufacturing process will cause issues with your entire mini-split system and will lead to malfunction and or failure. Otherwise excellent video!

Glad you got it sorted out, I am really enjoying the build! Two notes from our own Mr.Cool install for people considering trying it ( we put in two of these multi-head systems in our place) 1. Use a torque wrench when making connections and torque to the values specified in the manual. I cannot over stress how hellish it is to try and isolate a leak when you have between 8 and 16 connections on a full unit. Just....do it properly the first time. 2. Be super careful with any type of expansion foam around the lineset. If you are going to use it, make sure it has room to expand and isn't between the lineset and a stationary surface. It can expand and crimp the drain line, causing all kind of water damage and worse in an in-wall application like this. The only bonus is if that happens, you'll know pretty quick 😂

Five years ago I installed mini-splits in my existing home, but half the interior walls are concrete block and half are lath and plaster. I did the refrigerant lines differently, connecting them outside the wall and tucking them inside the unit. The so called "communication wire" in mine has a full 220 Volts and I was not comfortable leaving what is basically an extension cord open to rodents to eat. So instead I used metal conduit and #14 wire. The lineset was too short on one so I had to braze some more copper on it. Of course last weekend the controller board crapped out so I guess it is going to be a pile of scrap metal soon.

I'm confused. When you connected the lines, you checked them for leaks by spraying on the soap solution. Later, when the lines were connected to the compressor unit outside, you opened valves and charged the lines with refrigerant, again checking for leaks. What was in the lines after hook up that would have created a pressure differential to check for leaks as the lines hadn't been charged with refrigerant until later?

How can you check for leaks before you open the refrigerant valve? It’s like checking for water leaks with the water off

According to some of the other comments, those line sets don’t end up with refrigerant in them. Maybe we should watch a Mr cool video. Must get to the bottom of this mystery!

This is a mrcool dyi unit which has refrigerant in their lines. They connect and then that opens them up.

I am looking to do this in a finished house. I want to run the lines through the attic crawl space and drop them down through the interior wall cavities. Any ideas on making the drain lines work since the heads will be below the lines?

Hello, there is a condensation pump that you can buy if you choose to run drain plug. Another option is to leave the drain plug separate and run it down somewhere.

@@mgumapos21 You could run the drain line to the bathroom plumbing. Tie it in the same as a dishwasher drain.

I’d have an access panel for all the refrigeration line connections lol and how did you check for leaks before you let the refrigerant in the lines ?

I have a large Mr. Cool and when you're outside standing next to the compressor it's whisper quiet. Neighbors won't hear it.
