Description

DIYCOOL Perfect Aire 3PAMSHQC12 Mini-Split AC & Heat Pump

Overview

The Perfect Aire 3PAMSHQC12 Mini-Split AC & Heat Pump is an 12,000 BTU unit suitable for medium to large spaces up to 500 square feet. The installation is simple and requires no special tools or training. The DIYCOOL™ connectors included with the unit eliminate the need for soldering, refrigerant handling, gauges, vacuum pumps, or a licensed contractor. You can follow the step-by-step instructions and connect the outdoor condenser to the indoor blower with the included 25-foot line set. You can then use the included remote control to choose between four operating modes.

The Perfect Aire app enables you to download the built-in smart features to your smartphone or tablet. This feature allows you to control, program, and monitor your mini-split from anywhere with a wireless connection. Additionally, you get a full warranty on both compressor and parts, even if you install the unit yourself.

DIY vs. Non-DIY

If you choose the DIY installation method, you will incur no installation costs apart from the time you invest in installing the unit. On the other hand, the non-DIY method comes with a lower unit price, but you will need additional installation accessories, which could increase the overall cost by up to 15%. The estimated cost for professional installation by an HVAC technician is about the same cost as the equipment, if not more. Also, the warranty is only valid if installed by a licensed HVAC company.

Operation

The Perfect Aire 3PAMSHQC12 has four main operating modes:

  • Cooling: The unit efficiently cools spaces up to 500 square feet with 12,000 BTUs.
  • Heating: The efficient heat pump technology delivers 11,500 BTUs of heat, making it suitable for spaces up to 450-500 square feet.
  • Dehumidify: With the DRY mode enabled, the unit acts as a dehumidifier, removing more moisture than air conditioning alone. In this mode, you can remove 1.5 liters of moisture per hour, almost matching the energy factor of best-selling portable dehumidifier brands.
  • Fan Only: The unit offers four fan speeds in any operating setting or use the fan mode alone to circulate fresh air throughout your space.

You can set your desired temperature between 62 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Additionally, the Perfect Aire 3PAMSHQC12 has energy-saving modes:

  • AUTO Mode: The unit will choose the most appropriate operating mode to achieve maximum comfort in your space.
  • SLEEP Mode: The unit will adjust the temperature by 2 degrees towards a less costly operation. It does this every hour for the first two hours and then locks in that optimal running state for the next five hours before shutting off automatically.

Smart Operation

The 3PAMSHQC12 model comes with a built-in wireless smart controller that allows you to download the Perfect Aire app, connect your smartphone or tablet, and have a virtual remote controller. With a Wi-Fi connection, you can switch between modes and program run times anywhere
