Not sure where to post this as it's about mini-splits in general. It doesn't matter what you mount it to (RV, building, etc).
How flexible are the coolant lines between the inside and outside units of the mini-split?
The reason I'm asking is that I'm getting ready to rebuild the entire front wall on my RV trailer due to delamination. I'm thinking of running conduit from the bottom of the wall to a point near where the ceiling would be on the inside. I'm hoping that if I want to put a mini-split on my RV in the future, I can just run the coolant lines through the conduit instead of having to drill a hole through the wall. Any idea if that would work?
I've never seen a mini-split in person, just in pictures. So I'm not sure what I would be working with. The lines look flexible in the pictures. They're in coils, so how bad could it be?
How large would the conduit need to be to run the lines? The fittings would be the critical part, requiring larger conduit with very gentle bends. I don't know that I can put in a single conduit big enough for the coolant lines, drain and electric. A couple of conduit runs may be better.
