re: Mini split cost … seeking info and advice

I am paying someone to do mine fully installed for $4800
Im just not going to mess with this one. Ive done so many things but Im tired and gonna let a company install it
Your situation sounds very close to what I’m attempting to achieve as well. And that price you have feels accurate.
I’m absolutely not doing it myself. I do a lot of my things around the house out of enjoyment and personal satisfaction, but I’m quick to use the “people get paid to do this, and I’m not one of them” policy when it comes to stuff like this.
$10,000 just ‘feels’ way too much.
Thanks for all the feedback so far.

I guess I wrongfully assumed up to $5000 range. The quotes I was given are $10,000.
It’s super easy empty access and mount area. The outside space is totally empty and seemingly set up and all the power and circuits and what not. Basically just needs a cut through the bricks. 500 sq ft space unit. Feels like confidently less than half day install.
That’s why I’m asking you folks who would know much better than me. It just feels really high compared to 5 ton Trane I had installed in previous house (albeit back in 2017).
Edit:
Admittedly, I don’t know shite about these things. That’s why I’m asking what to expect. If that’s reasonable, ok cool. I just really and truly don’t know. Thanks.

Mini split cost … seeking info and advice
Posted by habz007 on 2/14/26 at 6:36 am
Converting a detached garage into a closed off and sealed ‘man cave’ type room with mini split unit.
Total square footage is 500-600 sq ft or so.
Looking to get an efficient mini split unit. The quotes I’m hearing seem pretty outrageous. But I don’t know. I’m curious what’s the cost I should reasonably expect.
I don’t want to say it yet before hearing responses, but the quotes I’m getting seem double what I assumed.
Thanks,
habz007

295 is laughable…
I think Lyn even mentioned he’s “north of 3 bills”. Or maybe I imagined that :lol:
I’m a big ole baw, but that dude has me beat by quite a bunch. Doesn’t matter, love him already, ha

Magician2 plans to fire Jay on the spot following a non run rule game.
Probably result of not enough diversity.

suddenly started getting opposition from some of the liberals and a couple gay dudes
I don’t know a lot of gay guys, so pretty small sample size, but I do know two pretty well that I’ve specifically asked their opinion. Not awkward question to ask them as they have an easygoing basically “ask me anything” policy.
They’re not a fan of trannies and do NOT like being grouped with them.
That makes perfect sense to me that gays would largely feel that way. Again, small sample size but I believe it. I could see true lesbians feeling even more strongly about it because they don’t want anything to do with a penis no matter which gender is hanging one.

I clicked thinking this was going to be a post about what games actually looked like. It’s actually pretty wild to see how awful and grainy games from the 90s were when we actually thought they were pretty good resolution at the time.
What a leap we’ve made in terms of high definition.
Sorry, not to hijack your topic

Recently had a personal record of 21 on the parade route last weekend.
Not in a “sitting”, but I have had a day of 34 drinks starting at 5am at MSY airport and continuing throughout the flights and after landing at brunch and lunch and boat rides and cocktail hours and pre dinner and during dinner and after dinner and late night bar etc. Every drink and location was so damn specific that I could account for them all.
I can’t say that I’m proud of it, but I saw everyone back safely that night from final bar back to the hotel… some really really drunk people.
I felt absolutely fine. I guess it was just the pacing. And next day in conversation, wife’s coworker friend told her what a gentleman I was for helping everyone and she would have never even known I had been drinking.
:dunno:
I’ve probably had some Mardi Gras or game days of more drinks (or poorly paced drinks), but those days weren’t so pretty and I can’t account for them all.

I've heard great things about them here and elsewhere.
Not from me. Ours has been an absolute lemon. Someone mentioned they had some “down years” around 2020 or so (not Covid related, I think we got around 2018-2019 or so.)
I’ll never own another one. Has been repaired and serviced multiple times. Maybe 9/10 folks on this board would strongly recommend. But I can’t. So just be advised. Speed Queen is never in my home’s future again once these go out for good.
Even something as simple as the dyer light bulb didn’t even last a month when we first bought it. They don’t need my money and don’t care about a single customer, but absolute trash experience. They sent a meth head looking guy and his girlfriend to fix it once. That’s what speed queen warranty paid for and provided us after less than a year of owning it.
What are other recommended brands out there today? It’s actually getting close to time.

You’re enough of a fan to come here and post, but not enough of one to even learn how the head coaches name is spelt.
These clowns also hate Jay Johnson when he drops a game because they had a much better plan. And they would have all signed the #1 portal class by end of day 1 when “Kiffen” was taking way too long.

Agree. It’s a good change up getting to watch games on a Thursday night time to time.
And it just so happens it works out well for me (albeit selfishly) that I can get out there easier on home game Thursday nights.

I hate that the opener is at 2:00pm. I wanted to take my son to the opener but I'm not taking off of work nor am I taking him out of school to go.
I kinda feel the opposite. I’ve been trying to take him as a new tradition. Something to look forward to… we plan to be there on Friday with little sister too. Works out well this year because their Friday is pretty meaningless with school parking lot Mardi Gras parade half day.
But I’m also likely in the minority of loving Thursday night games during SEC play. I try to drive in and catch them on my work off weeks. Friday nights are still best, but Thursdays happen to work well for me.

Oh Lord … I assumed this was an intentional troll post, but you’ve been here since 2021.
Can’t be debated? Current coach won championship Natty in year 2. Enjoy your arbitrarily chosen past ‘17 years’ of SEC championship and Men’s dominance and yet not shite else to show for it. And repeated failure to even make the tournament.
Were you just born stupid??? You probably hate Jay Johnson too.
Where are your season tickets located? I’ll go visit you tonight and the next home game. Retard.

No. No. And NO.
Verge can’t just coast on forever off a single hire, but he still gets rightful credit and had to actually convince Kiffin and make the hire.
We had many who didn’t want Lane to even begin with and then another too large percentage of others who wanted to move on because he didn’t finalize his decision and make it soon enough for their liking. And yet even more who seemingly questioned their own life existence because Kiffin didn’t have the entire portal class signed by end of day 1.
Never ever underestimate the stupidity of the Rantards on this board and the awful decisions they’d surely make.
