I've been eyeing Mr Cool's DIY flush mount units.

I have a 100+ y/o farm house, so retrofitting can require some creativity. These recessed units should work, but I'm also toying with the idea of integrating mini-splits into built-in cabinets/dressers. I've been obsessed with greeting a nice large format wood CNC and I like the idea of hiding the return unit behind cosmetic panels.
- bagels 2y agoI put a mr cool in my garage, no regrets at all.
- woleium 2y agoI have also heard good things about mr cool.
- ortusdux 2y agoI have trouble gauging them because they have flooded the DIY youtube crowd with free review units. There is no direct quid-pro-quo that I know of, but it's rare to see a DIY person bash something, and I worry it's out of a fear of biting the hand that gives them free stuff.
- bagels 2y agoI bought mine, and this was before they were giving them to YouTubers. I've definitely seen those videos since then.
- rickydroll 2y ago90 yr old house here. Steam heat, crappy vinal windows from the past 20 years, vermiculate insulation (asbestos risk??). I like the idea of recessed units within the central wall with condensers in the attack. I need to vent the heat somewhere. Maybe if I get rid of all the gas (water, furnace), I can vent out the chimney.
