has anyone done this themselves. last thing I need is the heating/cooling guy seeing my grow op. i can wire my own circuit breakers and can do things like hardwood floor installations and kitchen renovations so I figure this can't be that bad? any tips?

i got a lg inverter minisplit and did 90% of the install. i did the electric, hung inside unit, ran lines and control wire, and had everything done but vacuuming the lines. the system was prefilled with refridgerant. i found a local ac guy(not a large company) and told him i needed to have the system sucked down and then check pressures, $60 was the charge. he asked about checking inside unit and i explained(lied) that i installed the ac because our master bedroom(above my room) is hard to keep temps and my very ill wife has trouble with the heat and all the hospital equipment makes it warmer. and she said she just couldnt have anyone come in while she is so sick. he did what we agreed, wished my wife well, and happily took the cash, no reciept needed. best thing ive bought for my hobby.

Hate them fukin mini splits. and when they break you gotta get an A/C guy to fix them I live in a non med state so I ditched mine when it went tits up. Went back to window units so if they break I can replace them
