We try and make the videos relatable and helpful no matter that the topic. We have literally had thousands and thousands of comments asking about AC.....so this will help a lot of people. Thanks for watching BB

What a great addition to the cabin. So great that you found a solution to handle our crazy Michigan weather! 😂 Love this for you both! ❤

I don't understand why some people are leaving disparaging remarks about an infomercial or sponsorships. A lot of these companies are smaller than they rely upon channels like this to showcase their products. I would never think that you could run an AC off of solar. It's up to each individual whether they believe the person or not but I wouldn't be subscribed to you if I thought you were liars. I'm also not mad that you got it for free. You have like 50,000 subscribers and that can reach a lot of people people with like-minded interests.

I appreciate that Scott......there is definitely a huge misunderstanding from some folks about the whole YT world. Without these awesome companies sponsoring smaller channels like ours, there wouldn't be a channel, it's simple. Without our subscribers there wouldn't be a channel......most folks understand how it works...but the 2% that don't get it are not something I worry too much about. We appreciate you my friend and thanks for being one of the good ones here. Plus I really had fun with this video and answered a question and problem we have had literally thousands of comments about. Win win

What an awesome kit!!! It came just in time for that heatwave, eh? What a relief! That was a hot week 🥵 Nice to have a backup heating system as well. There’s a lot of talk about heat pumps these days..i think the ontario government is starting to give rebates or financial help for those wanting to switch over to a heat pump system for economic reasons. Such a great idea! I look forward to seeing your updates through time. I’m interested to see how it consumes power over time, especially on your solar setup

I think in the long run we will be increasing the size of our battery bank, but honestly I can run it all day long on sunny days because my 2000 watts of solar panels have excess power to spare during the day....so as long as the sun is shining I can run it zero problem. If no sunshine.....then my 5kwh system could the unit for what I would guess is 6-8 hours.

Like to see the longer term on power usage

@OffgridwithJayandJen

5 күн бұрын

I will do updates as the summer goes on. But so far the unit seems to draw 500-600 watts for heat and 700-900 for AC....which is great because our solar can produce enough energy to run it throughout the day

WOW! That is flippen awesome. It looks like MRCOOL thought of everything from a tool kit to finishing touches over piping. Since we run 50 % of our cabin on solar (4.8kWh), I will be interested in the the drain on your system. Cool and heat. In April/Oct we run a propane heater to take the chill off vs. the woodstove. This might be a better option. Thanks for taking this project on. You two rock. 73 & God Bless. JohnyMac

Hey buddy.....as you may remember our system is of similar size and we ran the unit for 8 hours straight during the daytime that week when the Temps we in the high 80s. As long as the sunshine was on my panels, it didn't even effect the batteries.....we pull in about 1200-1500 watts all day long with the good sun exposure we have and that tracker following the sun all day. I did not run it once the sun was off the panels because it would obviously draw the batteries down within 6-8 hours with only having 5kwh Here as well

It takes a few minutes to get heat going; AC comes on faster. Build a snow shield over the outdoor unit. It doesn’t work with snow blowing into or blocking the unit.

I'm sure you will be really happy with the unit after install.....a lot of the labor and costs of having someone else doing it would be running the electrical from your house panel over to the unit itself.

I was thinking of the same thing for our place, glad to see your video. I will be curious the long-term effect on your power storage if you think you might need more storage since you will run this unit more as time goes on. BTW, hope the skeeters are not as bad by you as they are here in Northern WI. Brutal is all I can say.
