Hey guys, here's the short story. I bought a mini-split online and had it installed in my shed late fall 2020. It's not one of the pre-charged units. Everything was working fine until the following February when the compressor died. They sent me another one and my guy (Danny) came out and replaced it. Again, everything worked fine until late summer when it stopped cooling. Danny came by with a sniffer and found a leak in the head unit. They replaced that too. Now I can't get Danny to come back. He's like every other HVAC guy, covered up with work! I've called two other guys and got no response. This new head unit has been sitting in my garage since September. Here's where I need advice. I guess I have a couple of options. Leave it alone until I've harassed someone enough to come out and do the whole job. Or take it out and try to solder the line set myself then look for someone to charge it. I'd even be willing to buy a vacuum pump and gauges and learn how to do all of it but I still wouldn't be able to get the refrigerant. What say you?
