Need advice on mini-split location on second floor

Sizing Mini Split Air Handlers for Upstairs Bedrooms
2020年11月6日 · The smallest Mitsubishi 3 Zone mini split that I am aware of is the Mitsubishi MXZ-3C24NAHZ2 -- a 24,000 BTU unit.

2020年6月11日 · I don't see this mentioned very often, but the single zone mini-split heat pumps generally have a 3-point higher cataloged HSPF than the multi-zone units (13 vs 10).
