It's a four hour job typically with one pro and one helper. I can't even drive to your house and set up my tools for $100 with gas insurance and taxes. The permit for the electric in my city would be $80. An electrician that I subcontract with would be $150 plus probably $250 in romex, breaker, disconnect, outlet etc to be at code.

The built-in WiFi in my old mrcool was trash. The sensibo system I use to automate all 6 of my analog AUX units is excellent. I would recommend going with an analog unit and getting sensibo if the unit is going to cost $100 less than a native wifi one and you need multiple units.

Community Reviews

This GarveeHome 12,000 BTU mini split stands out as a low cost way to add both cooling and heat, with strong efficiency compared with window units and quiet operation. The comments also point to easy DIY installation for handy buyers, and the included line set and precharged setup help keep the job straightforward. The main cautions are that it is not WiFi, the electrical work still needs care, and the listing appears to have shifted from SEER 19 to SEER2 17. It looks best for a garage, shed, or room where 230V power is already available.

  • DIY installation can be completed quickly when mounting hardware and pipe connections are handled carefully.

  • The 120V version can be practical for garages because it may cool effectively while drawing relatively modest power.

  • Mini-splits can remove humidity while cooling, which can improve comfort compared with window units.

  • Some installs report quiet operation and effective cooling of large garage spaces after setup.

  • The unit may not include native WiFi, which can matter for shoppers wanting app-based control.

  • Installation can require extra electrical and permitting steps that raise total costs beyond simple DIY expectations.

  • Vacuuming and line-set handling steps can be a concern, with some guidance questioning whether skipping vacuuming is safe.

  • Support and replacement experiences can be unreliable when a compressor arrives damaged, which can delay getting a second system running.

Cheaper to buy and operate than a window unit and you get heat. No brainer if you have or can borrow some basic tools and can follow a YouTube video on DIY installation.

i need 18000 btu for $400ish. Most on sale as a "good" price are $500s
If 12000 can reach $350... bring on that 18000 for $400ish!!!!

i noticed there is significant discount if you get a unit without wifi.

for those installing in the garage, forget the wifi. Most garages are not insulated well with the garage doors and walls with so much leakage and very inefficient. And unless used for permanent living space dont see the need to preheat or precool. If for actual living spaces the wifi would be useful.

But if strictly for on occasion space usage like garage or sheds, save a good chunk of money and dont worry about not having wifi

Window air conditioner is a huge electric user especially during summer when they are charging for over consumption. These splits use 1/5th or less than those plus remove gallons of humidity from the air. No comparison if you understand them fully.

Yep, I recommend them to everyone I know for these reasons.

Just wondering if all these random name units are either rebranded Gree, Midea, Haier or something else? Reason I ask is I need to know if the remote codes are common with these brands, so I can use my Good old Honeywell wifi connected minisplit IR blaster to control these units. I use these to control my Pioneer units with some success.

I believe these are made by AUX.
