Reply With QuoteThe high the seer the better. But figue on 2 ton for every 1,000 sguare feet. So for this you will need to have 3 ton. Now what size other than seer is this unit?
Now that I have your Attention:
I am going to finally put A/C in the Havi Boat House/ Garage 34X50X10. I’m strongly leaning towards using one of the “Ductless Mini Split Systems” unless I uncover something to steer me away from them before I pull the trigger.
I have couple of questions:
1. Do I go with the new SEER 21 over SEER13 units, is it worth the extra cash$$ almost double on some size units.
2. If anyone is familiarly with these units, should I install the inside unit on my back wall or center it on the ceiling.
3. HereÂ’s the big question do I install 2 smaller BTU units (12000 to 24000) or one larger BTU unit (36000 to 60000).
I like the smaller two unit deal, cuz IÂ’m all about redundancy unless thereÂ’s some other factor IÂ’m not considering.
Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

I was thinking 2 1-Ton units 12000 to 18000 btu in size. Total cost about 2200.00 dollars.
Also i'm not trying to cool my boat house down to 72 dezgrez 75-78 is fine with me.
Whether to go with one or two units is personal preference. I think if it were me, I would set up two units in my garage. As for efficiency, everyone will have an opinion on this. Some informed, some not so much. The cost of equipment for 18+ seer equipment is waaayyyyyyy more to purchase than 13 seer. Payback on that is a long time. 10+ years depending on how often you use it. You can get cooling cost comparison charts on line and make a decision if you think it's worth it. Unless you use it all year long, many hours a day, the payback just isn't there. Save the two thousand extra dollars you would spend on equipment and use it for boat gas

I put a swamp cooler on top of my RV garage which I hardly use. I bought a portable swamp cooler that hooks up to my garden hose for about $500 that I use all the time when I'm watching TV out in the garage.

I've had the portable swampee for a couple years now don't like the maintenance on it, or the added work to the boat when it blows out all of the white shit.

I haven't had those problems at all. Knock on wood.
Had I known about these Ductless Mini Split Systems 2 years ago, when I bought my portable swampee, well I wouldnÂ’t be asking questions now.

This sound's good. I went from a 12 seer to a 19 1/2 on my house, with a 2 speed fan. It doesn't work near as hard as the old 12 seer did. And I did notice a bigh change in $$$$$ on my bill. And I keep my house at 75, I like it cool.

That's cool, and just the kind of input I wanted to hear.
Is your 19 seer the new inverter technology?
