About Klimaire DIY 12,000 BTU 19 SEER2 Mini Split Heat Pump Air Conditioner
Overall Feedback:
87% positive
90% found the ventilation options useful, while 10% were indifferent
The app is much better than the remote with easy-to-understand translations and illustrations, and programming is also easy.
The remote has many features like follow me and timer, which I haven't tried yet.
The remote is confusing with poor English translations. The 'Turbo' button only turns the fan on high and the 'Mute' button only turns the fan on low without turning off the beeps when buttons are pressed.
I find the options for air direction and temperature presets on the remote useful, but the instructions for implementing the online app on my iPhone are confusing.

92% were impressed with the noise level
The split-system-air-conditioner is much quieter than the portable A/Cs I have been using.
I was initially nervous about the possible vibration using the supplied offset wall brackets, but found that both the inside and outside units produce a remarkably low noise output.
91% found it quick to install, yet 9% encountered difficulties
I found the installation process of Klimaire version fairly straight forward and the steps for installation were basically the same as the Mr. Cool mini split. The hardest part of the install was running the new electrical lines for the new AC disconnect. Based on my experience, I can say that it was a rich experience.
The instructions were not always easy to follow, especially with respect to electrical requirements. However, they were good enough to get the job done.
I found it easy to connect and torque the pre-charged lines to the required parameters.
The installation process was easy except for the line issue.

89% liked the cooling capacity, but 11% didn't
I was pleasantly surprised by the cooling quality of the Klimaire unit. I was able to bring down the temperature of my 500 sq ft bungalow from 79 F to 68 F in just 2 hours with no issue.
In a very hot metal building, the temperature difference between intake and exhaust on our indoor unit is only 10-15 degrees.
The air conditioner doesn't cool down my 150 sq ft space, despite being rated for up to 550 sq ft.
