You want to vacuum high and low sides because the TXV valve is going to block the flow from the low to the high side on the evaporator not completely it's just better to pull a vacuum from both sides. You want to make sure you get any moisture out of the lines I usually vacuum for 2 hours once the system has been opened to air especially if you live in a humid part of the country.

Just finished installing a Tosot mini split. Works great. Thanks for this video and your follow up video. Referred to them both several times, really helped with the installation.
Just finished installing my mini split. I had a friend in HVAC help me with my line set, but other than that I managed it all by myself and this video and your "regrets" one gave me the confidence to tackle it. Thanks so much!
You should install EG4 24K hybrid mini split and do a clip on install and performance. I found it`d take about 8-9 450 Watt panels to fully power that mini split during the day (about 2500 Watts delivered for a full performance)
Excellent video! Thank you
24:35 Wait hold up. You installed a 30amp double pole breaker for your 12,000BTU? Breakers are intended to protect wiring but also the system correct? If your unit needs to pop over 15amp, you need 15amp breakers right? Doesn't matter what kind of wire you have.
Or am i wrong here? I'm no electrician but this didnt make sense to me.
Nice, good you installed extra thick wire but braker you need to install according to your equipment. check AC unit amps plus 1.5 %
Does the Tosot compressor come pre-charged with refrigerant? Is that true of all compressors, or is that unique to Tosot and Mr. Cool?
I don't see this specified on the Tosot website other than offhandedly mentioning DIY.
use panduit wireway make wiring simple.
I dont recommend wall mounts as a service tech its a pain.
Thank you, finally someone showing how to do the install exiting from the Left Side properly.
Great video and everything looking simply thank you
XD USA Houses made out of cardboard And duct tape what am I supposed to do with my 3 ft thick concrete walls
It's much easier to mount the head, then run your lineset, you more likely to kink the copper lineset working with it all unraveled like that, plus it's easier to mount the head with just the stock lineset coming from the head.
Thank you
When installing the condenser on the wall, do you feel vibration or noise inside the house when it's running?
It's against code to run paper thru a pipe . It's a fire hazard. You should have just used loose 15amp wire.
When you were done vacuuming the lunit you closed the valve, which isolated the gage from the unit. Of course it's not going to drop. In the end, you did not detect if the unit has a leak.
What was the reason for the vacuum pump? Was that just to test the lines for leaks?
You can use a 3.5" inch hole saw and then use a 3" PVC pipe sleeve to pull the thingies thru the wall. This also keeps the bugs and varmints out of the wall. You can buy a 2 foot long piece of pvc from Lowe's and cut to length with a saw.
That’s why it’s so much cheaper. You’ve got so much more to deal with. Tristan installed a Mr. cool with two heads and it was simple. The hardest part was placing the condenser on its rack on the side of the building. The rest was a piece of cake.
Perfect tutorial
Why is it that this feels like a informecial, like this channel gets paid to advertise. Is that what is happening, companies paying people to get their product sold on YouTube?
