Title: AC & Heater Split in Large Room.
Review: I got the COSTWAY Blast Series 24000BTU Mini Split Air Conditioner & Heater for our big living room, and wow.. itâs a total life saver. It cools down our space super quick, even when itâs really hot outside. I have a large room, and this thing handles it so good! Itâs strong enough to cool our entire living room, so it doesnât matter if youâve got a big area or not it still does the job.Setting it up was pretty easy. Once itâs on the wall, it just works. The remote control is easy to use too, so I can change the temp without getting up. And itâs also a heater, so I donât have to worry when winter comes around next month. I donât even need to buy a separate heater anymore, which is soooo handy.Itâs supposed to be energy efficient, and my last bill wasnât too crazy, so I think itâs doing its job there too. Plus, itâs quieter than other ACs Iâve tried. I can actually watch TV without cranking up the volume every time it runs. This is exactly what I needed and was worth every penny. If you need a strong AC that doesnât cost a fortune to run and keeps a big room comfy, this is the one! I love ours.

Title: Quality, solid, durable build. Sleek modern design.
Review: I purchased the 12000BTU Mini Split Air Conditioner & Heater, 20 SEER2 115V. The item came in two different boxes on the same day. Both boxes were packaged well and the shipment came much faster than expected via FedEx. The unit has a sleek and modern design that blends well with any room decor. Most of the build quality feels solid, with durable materials used throughout. It includes an indoor unit for air conditioning and heating, an outdoor compressor unit, and a remote control for convenient operation. There are no visible problems with the unit, as I’ve heard can be found on similar products. The primary reason for choosing this mini split system was its dual functionalityâcooling and heating. I currently have a window unit that unfortunately is too loud to do calls or video classes etc, so am looking forward to this unit being much quieter. It should have much higher energy efficiency compared to my older window unit. I don’t have any experience with HVAC systems, and so may opt for professional installation. From the manual, the instructions provided seem clear and the install looks like medium difficulty for the typical DIYer. As someone else has noted, the mounting bracket on the back of the indoor wall unit appears to be somewhat flimsy and on this model has holes for mounting to the studs on 12″ centers, which is not the US standard of 16″. This may require further reinforcement. Certainly a great price, hopefully it lasts!

Title: Quiet and powerful
Review: Following the manual and instruction video, as a person without any previous experience, I could finish the installation without any problem. You need to order an oil vacuum pump with the refrigerant refill kit to vacuum the lines so that it could work properly. The custom service was able to provide assistance promptly when I had a minor issue with the connection of the vacuum line. Make sure the vacuum could maintain for a while when the vacuum pump turns off, which means the seal is good. When the AC turns on, the first expression is that itâs so quiet that you can hardly notice itâs working if you are not targeted by the breeze. Even the outdoor unit is also quiet that you can only hear the noise if only you are very close. However, it cools down very fast. Our living room, dining room and kitchen are open space. It cools down the whole area without any problem. Even the bedrooms become comfortable if the doors are left open for a while. We have also a portable AC and window AC. They are not comparable at all even the power rating is almost the same. Wall AC is definitely worth the hassle for installation.

Title: circuit board did not control temp from day 1
Review: This unit is supposed to be able to hold a set temperature. It does not. Contacting tech support revealed u cannot talk directly to a tech. You tell the problem to a receptionist who then passes the info on. Its like whisper down the lane but worse. The responses were never in anyway helpful resulting in multiple contacts with no help at all. Finally, I sidestepped the provided customer service number and contacted Costway through their websites contact info. They responded that the unit will maintain a temp of 78 in cooling and I think 72 in heating. If that is the only temps it will automatically maintain, then that’s not helpful. Mine does not automatically maintain any temp in any mode. I called an ac repair tech and he says the circuit board isn’t functioning. Now we begin the process of trying to replace that. I’ll add to this when I find out if the unit will maintain any set temp, and how Costway does at dealing with the circuit board.Update 10/17: Costway has no service team that could assist my AC guy in trouble shooting the problem. They also have no parts to repair the unit. They suggested submitting a warranty claim. I’ll update this post.

Review: The 12000BTU Mini Split Air Conditioner & Heater is a versatile solution for cooling and heating spaces up to 750 sq. ft. With a 17 SEER2 rating, it ensures energy efficiency, saving on utility bills. Its inverter AC with a heat pump provides both cooling and heating capabilities, offering year-round comfort. The wall-mounted ductless design is convenient and space-saving, ideal for various room setups. The included installation kit streamlines setup, ensuring a hassle-free experience. Users praise its efficient performance, rapid cooling/heating, and relatively quiet operation. However, some note that installation may require professional assistance due to its complexity. Overall, it’s a reliable option for maintaining comfortable indoor temperatures efficiently.

Review: I’m speaking on two units I just installed over the past two weeks so this isn’t a full “reliability over time” review.As described, the units arrived in two boxes each (the indoor unit with it’s bits in one box and the other bits in the outdoor box).Since the units are economically priced and the performance ratings seem quite good, and I only need heat in the shoulder seasons before I switch to full on wood heat (vs the $$$ electric forced air), they seemed to fit the bill. The heating comment is based on the notes that these will work down to -10C (14F). I don’t know if that means the units will cease to work or if they will lose efficiency, time will tell.With all that, I decided to do the install myself. Here is where you learn about vacuum pumps, gauges and oil (another ~$200), electrical cutoffs, codes, etc. Did my research before I ordered and the work involved seemed to be straight forward, including running 12/2 wire and conduit (and a new breaker / etc).Following various install videos and a chat with an HVAC buddy of mine, I quickly determined the best approach and took it, and here’s what I learned:- the 2″ hole required is going to be a tight fit, so when wrapping with the vinyl, make it tight. If one goes larger than 2″, note that the wall cap cover isn’t going to fit (as it’s 2″) and the larger hole will require more filling.- the drain hole in the bottom of the outdoor unit is 25 mm, and if you cannot drain directly out, you will need some extras for it (note the size). I installed my units onto a wood deck so I didn’t want the water just running wherever so I did this bit of extra, and here is where you need to know the size, which is in the manual- One has to remove all the plastic protective shipping covering from the indoor head to get the tape off, which has to be done to install the com wire. Make sure to take care when handling afterwards to not mark up the plastic.Once the connections were made, line sets torqued to spec, vacuumed for 15 minutes and vacuum leak checked via gauge, everything in place and electrics connected, only then I opened the valves to release the R32 gas and pressure checked all the fittings again for leaks ( with a 50/50 soapy water solution).Verifying no leaks, time to throw the power. LEDs lit up and with some batteries in the remote, I had the unit pumping out heat within minutes of turning on the main power.The units so far work as planned. The heat stability in the house is better than ever (haven’t had to cool with them yet, may update after next summer). They are very quiet, even the outdoor units are near impossible to hear inside, and outside it’s mostly a whirring fan sound.Now, why the support comment? One outdoor unit arrived in a damaged box, which I didn’t notice until after the delivery guy was long gone. When I opened the box, I noticed that the unit had a considerable dent on the business end (connectors / electrics / control unit). I contacted Costway via the Amazon contact process, complete with explanation and photos of the box and the unit, and in less than 24 hours they had a new outdoor unit on it’s way. If I could complain about anything it would be the nearly two weeks to wait for the new unit (same time to get the original one). However as I was not intending to install them right away (and I had one good unit to install currently) and Costway DID CHECK to see if the time to receive it was OK, and it was so I’m not faulting anyone.So far so good, and time will tell. At this stage I’m recommending my friends and family to consider these units as I now know what is involved for the install, and they work well (they are quiet and throws heat, cooling shouldn’t be an issue, and reasonable to install with what’s provided).

Review: So I had a split installed in our living room by an Hvac pro at a cost of $400 so when i watched them it looked simple so a year later we wanted an a/c in our bedroom so i ordered a costway First it was a great price, 2- i would try the install myself and 3- twice the warranty from our first unit from another company…Well we received the units ,unpacked and assembled with the help of my wife …. it was simple to install ,we even bought an a/c manifold set and a vac pump from Amazon . So after 2 hours of work the unit was up and running ..now to note i can do house wiring so that was no problem and the vac and set up again no problemso all in all …simple set up and works perfect …the hardest part was drilling the hole which took 10 min. other than that straight forward . we are now going to put one in my work shop and our guest cabin .even buying the tools it was still cheaper than hiring an Hvac company …Thanks Costway

Review: For the first week or two, this machine did not like running anywhere near freezing. It completely iced over on the protective screen. Thus it could not the ice and make any heat. Once I discovered, the icing was on the protective screen, I took it off. Then it worked much better. Heated my home down to -17 Cthe coldest day this winter. But!, When thereâs high humidity around 0° This device struggles to make heat. It doesnât like the high humidity conditions. It ices over and spends most of its time deicing. I donât know if thereâs a solution to fix that. Or if itâs a problem with justice model, or if this is a common problem on all heat pumps. That being said, it ran flawlessly all winter. it might be that this heat pump is too small for my living space. In terms of near 0° high humidity conditions. I recommend getting a larger size then you need if youâre going to use it for heating. Probably in all brands.

Review: The unit arrived as described. I installed the unit myself but be advised you will need a vacuum pump and adapter.It’s been heating and cooling our summer kitchen with ease and it’s really quiet to boot. I’ll be buying another in the next year or so for another room in our house.
