Last spring, I had a few different HVAC contractors come out to give me a quote on a new ductless mini split install.
Some buddies were telling me about these systems and how much money they could save you on the energy bills.
They were telling me about the amazing comfort because there were different zones with customized temperature control settings. When you are able to focus your comfort in one section of the home instead of the whole house, it really saves you a ton of money! Well, I was thinking that the quotes were reasonable, but I also remembered that my buddies told me these systems could be installed by the homeowner too. At first, I thought there was no way I could do something like that, because I’m no HVAC expert. However, I ended up watching some installation videos with my friends and I realized that it seemed like the work wasn’t all that challenging. I figured so long as I could follow each step in the installation video, I would be fine. So I ended up ordering a DIY ductless mini split system. The new HVAC arrived within days and I was eager to get started! Not only was the work easy for me to do, but it was really exciting! I had my buddies helping me out so we were able to finish the installation of 3 zones within a single day. I thought it would take longer since none of us were technically professionals, but a few of my buddies did have some experience. I can’t believe it now, I have this awesome HVAC system that works great. My energy bills are low now and I can’t get over how much I saved taking care of the installation with my friends.
