I doubt you have that class of expertise. Use of inverters, as I'm sure you know, allow the makers to produce much higher seers than 20 years ago with single speed motors. DC fans and compressor can be tweaked to produce ratings this high and in time, with even better refrigerants, better yet.

This compressor also only has 3 speeds, most modern mini splits either have 5 speeds and some are infinitely variable, thus able to be extremely efficient. And how long will something like this last if it is is the dirtiest, most debris ridden place like the undercarriage of a truck? Something just isn't right here, maybe im wrong, but at least i am precise enough to be super sketpical. This looks like an old design with inefficiencies that make it have to be expensive.

I am SHOCKED this guy would promote or install this GARBAGE on ANY vehicle. Overpriced to begin with $3500+usd and that undercarriage install ?? Seriously Dumb. That system would be TRASHED in months after a few good rocky roads. Not to mention clogged to hell with mud and dirt. THEN on top of it the Manufacturer says it wont suffice in any high humidity areas , So unless your on paved roads in the Pacific Northwest it's useless. 😂 I have been installing both 12/24v a/c systems on RV's snd Boats over 15 YEARS and this whole system is laughable. A Dometic Brisk Air II , for $1800 , 15,000btu, 2-3 hour install is a far better option, or ANY roof air for that matter. My Nomad Rig is a 2010 FORD E350 - 400watts solar, 600ah Lithium , Twin Renogy 3000watt inverters , and using a Soft Start , I run a Frigidaire 13,000btu Round Tower AC unit. 12" round footprint, 34" tall, 1 exhaust hose. SIRI & Alexa can run it to my liking, and with my Starlink I can run it while im not inside should I need to leave the dog for a couple hours. All for the whopping price of $899. And in winter I can take it out in 60 seconds. In Weather that's 95 degrees it will keep the whole van at 65 degrees after initial 15 minutes and on LOWEST setting. With my 600ah Lynac Lithiums it'll run for about 8-9 hours every day !!! I can recharge my lithiums quickly if need be with my Honda Gen or starting the van. Which I have rarely ever had to do because who sits in the van all day while parked !! When doing Nomad Rigs or Small RV's - Durability and Efficiency are KEY ! You want the biggest bang for your buck and have the Durability to KNOW its gonna work when you need it. This Undermount A/C unit is Junk folks. Tok many easily breakable parts , pathetic output per dollar, and the Avg person is NEVER going to do all this crap to install one. A Rooftop is done by anyone with a jigsaw and caulking and a basic level of wiring knowledge. And heat RISES , so a floor unit is already half cooked before you turn it on. The EXACT reason I chose the Frigidaire round modern space ship looking unit with its fancy wifi features and Tiny footprint and No Tools install - (exhaust hose out a corner roof vent ). In Conclusion, I imagine Tim & Katie were given these units FREE in exchange for this Promo Video. Well I challenge that company to send me one. I will gladly install it asap and do a 20min install video on my channel.... And IF in 90 days im 1000% satisfied with it , I'll pay for it in full. Just to Prove my point and that there is no comparison to Experience. And lastly there is 2 Chinese companies making 'seperate' systems similar to these and far easier to install for 1/3rd the price. I just installed one in a Nissan Microvan , Powerqueen Lithium 400ah battery, Victron Multiplus, 24volt setup, 5500btu , total cost $3700 for Everything and it makes that 120sq ft van an Icebox in 10 minutes and runs 5-6hrs . I cannot see ANY login in the unit in this video. Ford Factory battery powered a/c system is only a bit more expensive than this system. Sorry Y'all.

Even for those living in the US, if you self install your still going to pay an extra $700 -$1000 to have the system gassed and commissioned. I suspect you wouldn't be doing this install if you had to pay the full price. This is a joke at the current price.

The under side unit will get wet, things will hit it, and snow would be a complete drag on the unit. i am completely skeptical about this unit, and its ridiculous price, when better tech is available for (in the case of mistubishit mini splits) 1/2 the price. you can even go less reliable and warranty with other units for 1/4 the price.

This was very helpful since the unit I bought has no instructions at all. Since I am using it in a vehicle that never came with AC and is more than 50 years young, I am going to have to come up with a condenser that fits in the available space or make some space above the rear transaxle and in front of the engine by sacrificing the rear package space. The evaporator can be the same as that in a similar sized car for an under dash mounting. what I found helpful was the addition of an extra battery. I planned on installing a larger alternator output of 105A and with the dedicated battery for the AC compressor, the higher alternator output should take car of the dual batteries.

@@erickessler6094 Depending on your vehicle can consider looking for ductless mini-split systems which are in the 8-12k BTU range. But these would be for larger vehicles. A few years ago, saw someone who mounted a highly efficient system on this rear driver door, but he did a good bit of customization for the mounts. Also keep in mind if you are driving off-road the vibrations will shorten the life of any system not specifically designed for them.

Why not use expanding foam to seal the pipes into/out of the floor?

Tim - thanks for your amazingly detailed video! I have had the unit for my 144" Sprinter for a while but just getting around to doing the final startup as I had to make some custom mounting solution. What type of 2" hose did you use and how did you attach it to the evaporator - any special clips to keep them in place?

I used standard automotive 2.5″ Flexible Duct Hose and attached them to the evaporator with SS hose clamps

@@TimKatie I was looking for this info as well. Do you happen to have a link to the louvered vents that you purchased? Everyting I find is smaller than 2.5". Is it ok to clamp the 2.5" hose down to 2"?

As with any refrigerant system, it's better to use soft copper line sets rather than rubber hose. The molecules of refrigerant can penetrate the rubber and leak out. This gets more prone to do so with age. Rubber is provided by manufacturer to get johnny-handy to buy in with the promise of easier installation, however the issues begin after the warranty is up. Soft copper can be fitted with not much more difficulty than the cheesy rubber hoses.

And yet the rubber hoses on my cars AC seem to be fine, and when I had it checked it was full- at 20 years and over 300k miles. Meaning, modern rubber hoses with the lining, chemistry, etc., don't leak and fail in just a couple years like you suggest. Not saying copper isn't still better, but flaring/sweating/etc. are a bit out of some DIY-ers skill set. Also, copper lines are subject to vibration and work hardening, leading to cracking in mobile applications. Which may be why you don't see any OEMs using copper lines.

Hmmm. Seems a copper line set would be superior in this application. Simple enough when the e coil is like a 24” run from the compressor.

Except every single MVHVAC system I have seen has rubber hoses in the system. And those hoses are crimped to aluminum, not copper.

Great job. 47kWp, 7 tons of high efficiency heat pumps. It’s interesting everyone that bashes you for spending YOUR money on that…all while they’ll blow $80k on a truck or boat, $20k on vacations or weddings, fill their garages, outbuildings and storage rentals full of s%it.

Condensers below the van means it will catch lots of dirt and choke the same ? No insulation on the cold air ducts ?
