See Your Garages

Re: See Your Garages

I've been looking at a "split system" like a Mr. Slim for my two car garage/shop and curious if this is a DIY project? I've got a pad for the compressor on the outside; it than looks like its running wires and pipe, drilling a 3" hole and hooking it up to panel.

Tom -

I have a 42,000-BTU "Mr. Slim" cooling my 2600SF garage, installed three years ago; I left the install to the dealer as a turnkey job, as I don't know much about refrigerant systems. If you install it yourself, you won't have a warranty, and most dealers won't touch a DIY installation if you need service. Pics at this link:
