Nicely done

Mitsuman says:

This is not at all how this should be done and certainly not a “quality” installation as some have commented. Lines and drain should all be strapped secure. No cement on the drain connection at the unit!? Ever read the install manual? “Be sure to connect the drain hose connecting part using adhesive of polyvinyl chloride family to prevent leakage”. Wow. The thing is swinging free and wobbling back and forth it’s an insult to craftsmanship. The unit should be installed solid on rigid rod, if you can’t figure out how to do that you shouldn’t be installing. This poor customer. Not to mention who’s going to tell the dry wallers the exact dimension of the opening so they don’t drywall up to the edges of the unit. Then the grill won’t fit on and the drywall will have to be cut back. If it’s to be under insulation (especially blown cellulose) there should be plastic barrier covering unit to protect from dust (again, read install instructions if you’re new to this). It’s much better to install lines, drain and wiring in position, then cut the unit in after drywall is painted. Way cleaner and the customers unit isn’t exposed to all the construction dust. Units can easily be removed from below, they’re designed to be installed into finished ceiling. Yes this equipment lasts very well if it’s applied and installed correctly…which this unit is absolutely not. This is not at all how this should be done.

These units are great till they stop working. Then the shit show starts. Remember products don’t last anymore.

Steve Flynn says:

Nicely done. Does the drain line need to have pitch when it follows the line set?

Ductless Plus www.ductlessplus.com says:

No you need 14.5” inches not 12”

Chilling with Bike says:

Nice work. And for 14 dislike, could please point out why you guy disliked?

D Mac says:

How close to a Tv can you mount the inside unit? Mitsubishi says 3' Have you ever seen problems with this distance?

Timothy Fisher says:

nice,nice,nice,nice,NICE!

Kent Wood says:

Would always be nice to not skip steps…like putting the 2×4 on the other side to make up for truss width too wide for cassette…or did you. See, viewer left to make an assumption. Some degree of off angle is surely undesirable.

TheCablebill says:

Does the drain line pitch up from the unit before it travels to the hole in the soffit? If so, would there be a problem with stagnant water during dormant periods?

Don’t forget to Reem your pipe before you flare it

Brayden Murray says:

I have knee walls in my attic bedroom. Can these be put on a wall instead of a ceiling?

Tony Abdalla says:

I played the "actually" drinking came and I was trashed by minute 4…actually…

786otto says:

Looks great except those home depot hooks, Grainger has professional attachments for threaded rod.

InHocSigno says:

Loctite for the nuts and threaded rod, or double nut them? Seems they might come loose with vibration over time.

M. Lewizz says:

the space above my ceiling are 12 in deep will this unit fit
