So sometimes you have to get a new line set numbers 1 2 and 3 above.
Run new ac line to attic.
The line set is easily accessible and wouldn t be too costly to replace.
New board arrived and that solved the problem.
The line goes from.
It is a r 22 system.
The coolant line comes into the basement and then runs to the attic through the first and second floor walls.
The house i recently purchased had a retrofitted additional ac unit installed in one attic.
Line sets need to be insulated primarily to avoid accumulating condensation frost creating localized moisture problems the thermal losses are a secondary issue with only a tiny effect on system efficiency.
One of my biggest weaknesses.
I have a 34 year old trane air conditioner that needs to be replaced.
Just open the box and figure it out.
The compressor unit is outside at the other end of the house and the refrigerant supply return lines wander about 50 through a second attic into the cooling unit.
Short run line sets at ground level fit the bill here.
It started at my first christmas.
New lighting cable computer networking and sound systems can all require wiring that may need to come through the ceiling.
The amount of surface area of the line sets exposed to the attic are tiny and heat gain loss is quite small.
But to answer the question is there a minimum length for a mini split s line set.
The contractors i had come in want to cut the line in the basement and attic flush it with a cleaner and then re use.
If your indoor unit is in your crawlspace this might be you.
Have explored multiple places to run line set and original contractor hosed me by running it up the wall between windows.
