The only "hvac tool" i needed was a harbor freight refrigerant pump and it was $120 with the R410 adapters I needed. The Garvee condenser is pre-charged, the only difference between this and MR cool is that the lines are not pre-charged w/aeroquip easy connect fittings. I did the 220V circuit w/ surge suppressor, rated box myself along with the entire remainder of the install for $900 total including the unit itself.

First timer w alot of mechanical/automotive/electrical experience? Definitely can be a DIY job.
First timer w/little to no experience in hands on mechanical work- Definitely not. Just drilling the hole through the house alone and hitting the wrong area could results in a disaster for you.
I have a TON of plumbing/carpentry/electrical/mechanical experience and the hardest/annoying part for me was getting the lineset cover nice and straight on my house without kinking the copper lines.

220v will require two breaker slots vs 1 with 110v.

You should not be plugging this into an outlet....

GarveeHome's 12,000 BTU 115V mini split is a budget heat pump that cools and heats well, runs quietly, and can be a big efficiency upgrade over window or portable units. The app adds WiFi control, silent mode, and power-limit settings, though the WiFi setup can be finicky and the app is cloud-based. The main tradeoffs are installation and electrical work, since the lines must be evacuated before release, the unit may need a dedicated circuit, and the included line set is short. It is a strong value if you are comfortable handling the install or paying for it.

Common Questions (5)

  • It needs a vacuum pump to evacuate the lines before releasing the pre-charged refrigerant. The line set is reported as pre-flared, so flaring tools usually aren't needed, but a vacuum pump and 410A adapters are commonly mentioned as the key special tools.

    MikeThorZipsorttacomaguy20BlueAction5062

  • It should be on a dedicated circuit, and some reports say the nameplate calls for 19.4A minimum circuit ampacity with a 30A max fuse size, which can mean 12-gauge wire and at least a 20A breaker. For 220V installs, two breaker slots are needed; for 115V, verify the circuit matches the unit's rating.

    frontytasmaniantacomaguy20tacomaguy20

  • It is a heat pump, so it provides heat as well as cooling. Real-world reports say it can heat a basement or garage well, even down near 0°F in some setups, but standard units may struggle below about 25°F and colder climates may need a cold-climate model.

    frontyAdamm345dealsfordadNorwester

  • Yes, if you already have hands-on electrical/mechanical experience; first-timers with little experience are warned off. The hardest parts reported are drilling the wall correctly, keeping the line-set cover straight without kinking copper, and handling the electrical circuit safely.

    BlueAction5062tidnabBrad1960tacomaguy20

  • The unit does not include Wi‑Fi on this listing. App control may still be possible on some Garvee units, but this specific deal is called out as lacking Wi‑Fi, so silent mode and power-limit features may not be available from the remote alone.

People are acting like it's not worth it because you can't get them serviced or warrantied without a professional install, please do you think we are dumb? The saving alone means that if anything breaks it's by far cheaper to just get a new unit than pay HVAC companies thousands.

You can go even cheaper and get a free rental of the vacuum pump from autozone, advanced auto, etc.

You don't need professional grade tools. You can buy a Harbor Freight vacuum pump. Better yet, buy a Vevor vacuum pump or one on amazon for $60. There are gauge sets on amazon for cheap as well. Here are your out of pocket expenses.-equipment pad $25 to $80-line set cover $35-vacuum pump $60-gauges $50I didn't include a new 120v circuit, since that can vary based on your needs. Some tools a pro would have are dry nitrogen to check for leaks prior to vacuum, micron gauge, and torque wrench.If you're doing bare minimum, just buy the things I have listed and possibly some Nylog for the flare joints.Connect the lineset and do the install. Pull a vacuum for at least an hour. Crack the valves on the condenser to release some pressure. Check you flare fittings with soapy water. Open both valves fully and start it up.
Yeah I'm a big believer in most of the failures and issues people have with mini splits can be remedied with more thorough install procedures. So even getting a cheap set of gauges and vacuum pump and renting a tank of nitrogen for a month from your local welding supply shop and doing a triple evacuation and 24 hour pressure test, would probably make your unit last 20+ years.

12000 btu from a window unit is MUCH different than from a mini-split. Window units are less efficient because they run on 110, and the window is never going to be sealed as well as it would be if it was closed. Then you have to take it out and store it every winter and deal with that hassle, and even the inverter units are noticably louder than what you'll hear in the room when the split is going.
Plus, it is a heat pump and provides heat. A lot of window units are just ac only.

I'm more curious how difficult it is to install 220v electrical. (yea i'd suggest an electrician)Edited to remove misinformation
I had a friend looking at putting a mini split in his garage and was getting quotes for $5k-$6k. Sent him a similar deal and said you could screw up 5+ times and still be money ahead. He nailed on the first time. Borrowed the vacuum pump from another friend. Had a few hundred in extra supplies like a mount, breaker, extra wire, etc...If the thing quits working in a year or two who cares. buy another

220v just has two 110s. The neutral and ground are the same.

The qire thickness varies by the amps and length of run.

Special equipment would be small refrigerant pump and 410A fitting adapters. Can be bought HF or Amazon around $120. Everything else is drills, hand tools, etc. I HIGHLY recommend using NYLOG refrigerant seal when connecting your refrigeration fittings. Look up on youtube how to use it.
All of the needed tools can be borrowed for free at AutoZone. Same pump for automotive works on HVAC. Some locations even have HVAC pump connections, otherwise harbor freight sells a set for $20

That's why most in the HVAC industry will try to talk you out of / fear monger with this "but you wont have a warranty"

What they aren't mentioning is the labor to repair these units at $100+ / hr + service call cost is not worth it. 2 service calls , 1 to diagnose and 1 to order parts and you are just about at replacement cost.

Manufactures aren't providing labor warranties for the most part, the reputable installers that charge 10-20K per install may provide something but are basically just baking it in to their install cost.

Portable ACs are really inefficient. They've starting making a portable mini split now, which would work better, although it's probably more expensive. You should look into it.
If its your only source of heat, you'll want a cold climate or "Hyper Heat" setup. The standard units don't heat well below 25 F. I have to use a space heater in my apt when it gets really cold which is pretty short lived here thankfully.

eta Sorry quoted the wrong post but I'll leave it at that. Other post said you can use a mini split for heat.

What's a rough estimate of having a professional install this in a house livingroom / bedroom?

I've owned a split unit in the past when I lived in a different place and liked it just fine, but if you don't wanna pay for installation and your gut is telling you you have no business trying to install this yourself, you should probably listen to it. An easier (not necessarily better) alternative is a "saddle" air conditioner - here's an example refurbished 8,000 BTU unit for $260 (I have no opinion of this make or model, it's just an example):
