(No woodworking experience required.). The wiring freaked me out a little because I had never installed a breaker before and the overall process was totally new to me so I was learning as I go. The bundle come with a cylindrical sleeve that can be cut down to length and used to seal the hole off nicely. If Ambient Temperature Is Below 17C (63F).
Read on to get all the details of how the install went, start to finish. A solid mounting area is needed for the outdoor unit. That gets connected to the outdoor unit and provide power to the indoor unit.

Today we are talking about a totally DIY ductless system from MRCOOL which is what I will be installing in my workshop. Mini splits can be ducted to multiple spaces or ductless. Then, all thats left is the ground wire that gets connected to the metal plate below the connections.

The outdoor unit is already in place but we needed to make sure it didnt move around so we anchored it to the slab using Tapcons with the rubber vibration pads in-between the unit and the concrete. This means that two wires are hot. This is an example of how we installed the 36k Btu bundle in our detached workshop, the Rogue HQ. Then, the mounting bracket was leveled and screwed to the plywood and studs. Then, we drilled a hole in the exterior wall, and attached weathertight conduit to a 30 amp fused disconnect boxwhich is where we connected the end of the 10/3 wire to. Since my line was mostly ran on the interior of the building I needed to insulate it to make sure the line didnt sweat. There is a white connecter and a ground wire that are used to do so.The power to the outdoor unit from the 30 amp disconnect is ran using a preassembled liquid tight conduit. Disclosure: This tutorial contains affiliate links and was sponsored by MRCOOL however the opinions are 100% my own. Flip up the front panel to expose it and plug it in.

Once they are tighten down you can then remove the caps on the side of the lines to expose an allen wrench key that gets turned until it stops to release the refrigerant in the lines and pressurize the system.This is the part of the system the differentiates it from other mini-splits. Within that white sleeve there is a black electrical line that runs back to the indoor unit. The drain line is also routed through this hole, however, extra care must be taken to make sure the drain line is pitched appropriately and drains freely with no traps in the line. Your tools, materials, and skills will vary, as will the conditions at your project site. Lastly, youll need to tie the wire into the panel. Even the wiring and panel work wasnt bad at all. The break then gets inserted into an open slot on the panel. Once you get the breaker in you can then replace the face of the panel and flip the main breaker back on.
Luckily, we still had access to all the interior walls so we pulled a 10 AWG, 3 conductor wire with ground from the panel, through the interior walls to the location we were going to install the outdoor unit.
Do note that the fuses do not come with the disconnect. In most other cases this unit would be mounted to an exterior wall and the lines would be routed through a hole in that wall and outside.

Installing a mini split is an easy way to bring heating and cooling to a space. Unfortunately, the dog walked over it not once, but twice. I am not a licensed electrician and dont claim to be. This should complete the install. They have to be purchased separately. Next, I cut out a spot for the lines to run, attached the drain line to the unit and mounted the indoor unit in place. The refrigerant lines get threaded onto the connections. To start, the main breaker (big switch at the top) needs to be turned off, the face of the panel can then be removed and the insulation should be removed from the wire after it enters the panel.
Then, the ground wire gets stripped and tied into the ground bar. Now it was time to move inside and mount the indoor unit. With most other units the refrigerant is added after the fact using a system that most professionals have. Below, I have put together what I think are appropriate sizes for each of the units. Therefore, both the red and the black wires get stripped and tied into the breaker. With the spray foam insulation that we have this should be more than enough to cool the building in the summer. However, we needed to get it as low as possible due to a window above it. We first removed the top soil, then framed out the pad and leveled the frame, followed by mixing the concrete, pouring into the frame and using a board to screed it flat, filling all the low spots. This is pretty straight forward, there is a usb adaptor that gets plugged into the back of the front panel. However, these sizings are based on ideal conditions and there are a lot of other variables that should be considered. Once the concrete started to set up a bit, I troweled it smooth. However, since we have access to the walls and have some dead space behind the unit to route the excess lines we were able to have the lines exit the building right where they need to be. They are both different sizes, so you cant screw it up. This is usually towards the outside of the panel. I'm a Christian, father, husband and former aerospace engineer. The lines are then ran through this hole and outside to the exterior unit.
