Whats more effecient a 2-5 multi zone outside 18k btu w two or three 9k btu wall units or 2 or 3 individual 9k units you can turn off and on individually. I worry 9k wont be enough on really hot days for the living room/kitchen and I may want two wall units down the road, one on each end of the living room and one in the bedroom. More than likely it will just be 1 in the room and 1 in the living room/kitchen. Wouldn't efficiency drop if I add three 9k wall units to one 18k outside? Then if I'm running just one wall unit I'm waisting power running the 18k outside unit w only 1 wall unit. I will have about 4kw spare power unused currently to run the system during the day after batteries are charged around 9am. I have 28kwh battery and will be adding a windmill for on top of my hill where the cabin will be mainly to get heat at night in the winter.
Example. I only need to heat the bedroom at night until we wake up. Then Alexa or a phone app could auto start the living room wall unit to heat for the day. So all night the one bedroom unit will be running the 18k btu outside unit all night vs an individual 9k unit... But maybe it will heat better nc its a 18k unit thus run on less power?
I'm also looking for the best place to buy 120v high seer/ best bang for buck mini splits. I'm not sure the low seer Amazon prices are good anymore. Signature solar doesnt have them anymore. Where is a good place?.I'm hoping for 24 seer or better and -20f based on where I live.
An no over hyped Mr Cool brands.
Europe and Central/south america have been using well priced Midea, daikin Pioneer and C&H for decades and they last forever. So why buy a cheap Chinese MR Cool. If I wanted cheap I would get an innoviar 38 seer for $1300 - Just saying.
I saw these:
Cooper hunter 25 seer -22F $1200 https://www.minisplitwarehouse.com/...-heat-pump-ac-cassette-ducted-console-options
Midea 2-5 zone with -22f. I'm wondering if its cheaper down the road as I finish out rooms or on a really hot day if I should just have a multi zone since each wall unit is only $300-500 each. But then what will power usage be like? I'm assuming with the smallest 18k btu outdoor and only one 9k wall unit you will have more wattage used but if you do two wall units then the the single outdoor and two indoor is more effecient than two of each.
