The Daikin 17 Series mini split air conditioners are the best ductless acs for value.
Each is designed w/ a single-zone inverter, making them super energy efficient and whisper-quiet.

Fairly easy to install, it’s a good basic ductless mini split air conditioner and heat pump system.
As a DIY unit, the Daikin mini split systems are super affordable – if the 24000 BTU is not the right size, they are offered in a range of sizes ranging 9000 to 48000 BTU.
For simplicity my review will focus on the Daikin 24000 BTU mini split system.

Offered in multiple sizes, the Daikin mini split 17 Series are offered as single-zone, DIY units.

Settings and Functions
Buyers say that the Daikin ductless mini split units offer a variety of features. Since it is a DIY mini split, they are more affordable for every day consumers.
One feature users like is the mini split control panel which lets you set timers and a daily schedule. It helps save money in the long-run because you are able to operate it more efficiently than a regular HVAC system.
If you have a consistent work schedule, the 24-hour timer or weekly-timer function can be used to automatically turn on/off.
FYI: buyers suggest pre-cooling ahead of time
Another reason the Daikin mini split systems are great is their low noise.

Just got a Daikin 3 ton mini split for my garage a couple weeks ago. It’s nearly useless. The app is rated at just under a two star, that’s one star two many. The unit only works if I turn it on manually or leave the fan running 24/7. Support is nonexistent useless cranky people who tell you they can’t help you. I strongly recommend folks find a different brand.
Sorry to hear about your Daikin model.
It’s actually a pretty big company – I used to work for Kohl’s customer support and depending who you get on the phone it can be a good or bad experience. From my experience I’ve noticed that any type of phone support is better in the mornings than in the late afternoon or evening.
Also isn’t there a warranty to get it replaced?
