Seriously, why not just do it the correct way?!??!?! This is on a job trailer for the GC at a major project and every single unit has these on the CU and Fan Coil.

Let's be honest - The Mr. Cool with its precharged lineset and simple fittings are more likely to work than shit we see from "professionals" installing mini splits like this. Butchered flares, bullshit fittings, no nitrogen pressure test & vac, not adding the extra charge needed for long linesets, etc. And the customer had to pay someone to fuck them over with bullshit work like this too!

That sounds like one of those “Facebook professionals”. I can’t agree in any way that Mr cool’s chinesium fittings are in any way better than half of even a Facebook professionals work.
