can't be used below 5°F, where the Pioneer units are good to -15°F
1 year limited warranty
can't find the SEER rating anywhere, which normally means it's hilariously low... only thing that even mentions it is on the Woot page, which has to be wrong "Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) 2.6"
here's the manual for those interested. [manualslib.com]
wait for the Pioneer units to go back on sale at HomeDepot or a MrCool... i put a Pioneer 9K 240V unit in our 12x20 pot belly pig house last year, worked great over the NY winter, kept the house at a steady 66° even on the weeks we barely got above 0°F during the day and down to -10° over night. that's also with freezer straps on the doorway so the pigs can get out to do their business during the day.
side note... even if you're handy, do all the work up to the final line-set connection and just let an AC guy connect it up, pump it down, fill with nitrogen and leak check. my guy charged 300$, well worth it for the piece of mind to me.
You do not even need refrigerant gauges for 99% of mini split installs unless something is wrong with the system. Most manufacturers do not want you hooking gauges up unless you are troubleshooting.
True, but there is no alternative unless you want a window unit. Kinda like factoring the price of a pot to boil the water when discussing the cost of a pasta dinner.
And you don't "need" lineset covers.
You should NOT shorten the lineset unless the manual tells you to. These systems are "critically charged" and the lineset lengths are taken into account. Meaning a few feet difference lineset length could overcharge the system hurting performance / efficiently. Also half the point of a lineset being pre-flared is ease of install. Shortening the lineset defeats that purpose and adds another step to install...a step that probably will cause a refrigerant leak as well.
While there is a move towards other refrigerants R410a is still the most common in the US.
BTW, I hate these HVAC related posts because there is so much (probably well intentioned) misinformation shared.
Mini Splits....live long and prosper.

Maybe the2.6 refers to it's COP.
