    I am finally getting some movement on finishing the room above my garage and am going to make it a mancave/ kids hangout. (Though I expect be taken over by the kids)
    I'vr been researching mini splits. Ive been told the Mitsubishi models are some of the best, but not sure if I want to spend the $$$ for one for the garage.
    If anyone can share their experience with what they have, good and bad.

    We do have several at work. Mainly Fujitsu and Daikan. The Daikan seems to give us fits more often and won't work at times in certain temps and conditions. But it is over 11 years old.

    It's the Heat Pump Thread in the DIY area - not that many who posted actually did it themselves, just where it kind of made sense to put it.
