If you have a lot of rooms, using conventional minisplits may not be practical. Think for a moment an ask yourself "am I really going to put a HVAC head unit in the bathroom??". So a ducted system may be the best fit for your house. Minisplit systems are really efficient though... they have variable speed compressors and variable speed fans. They like to run low and slow and remove a lot of humidity... but how do you combine the whole house ducted system with the benefits of a mini spllit?

Look into a ducted minisplit. Mitsubishi makes an indoor air handler that works with their minisplit compressor. This combines the soft start, variable speed compressor with a ducted system.

When it was time to upgrade the HVAC system in this house I was able to downgrade from a 5ton conventional split system to a 3.5ton ducted mini-split. The house maintains a humidity of 40-50% due to the longer run times of the minisplit.

The previous conventional split HVAC system here had a 2 speed compressor, but it pulled nearly 20kw surge just to start. It ran 6 minutes and shut off... 20minutes later, it ran 6 minutes and shut off... Pulling 3.5kw when running. Now this ducted minisplit system runs 45minutes to 4 hours at a time pulling about 1kw most of the time.

Just food for thought... I welcome any comments you have.

Additionally, the minisplit compressor works down to 14F (-10C), and an option for -5F is also available.

Diesel Crisis Hits US Harvest as Global Grain Demand Explodes [VIDEO]

The world is hungry for grains and looking to the US...but diesel costs are already making the harvest economically unviable for many American farmers.

We saw this before in Australia, where crops were abandoned and left in the ground.

New data on inventories and demand just came out, and confirms we are rapidly entering a food crisis.

A buddy of mine who lived in a bad part of town installed these motion lights on each corner of his house. But he didnt' connect the bulbs. He ran the switched electric line into his kitchen and had 4 small lamps in the kitchen. That let him see if someone was lurking outside. These things are CHEAP.

I'll post a few videos from this channel. The pace of these videos are a little slow but I cannot find anything wrong with what is presented.

I did something a few months ago.... put a door peephole in the staircase going down into the basement. a 223 will shoot clean thru the kicks on the stairs and it might be nice to see out from under the little room under the stairs.
