How Are DIY Mini Splits Installed?
Exact installation instructions vary slightly from manufacturer to manufacturer. However, several steps are consistent throughout, including mounting the indoor air handler, connecting refrigerant piping, connecting the drain hose and power wires, securely installing the outdoor condenser, and connecting both parts.
What Tools Are Required for Installation?
Typically, with DIY ductless systems, all needed installation materials, like line sets, screws, mounting plates, hoses, anchors, and more, are included with the system. You'll want to check your owner's manual and installation kit to verify the materials included. Standard tools you may need for installation are a drill, screwdriver, and wrench.
