01The big idea

Solar air conditioning, without the science project.

Most “solar AC” setups need batteries, an inverter, and net metering — you end up spending as much on the system around the air conditioner as on the air conditioner itself.

The MU24 skips all of it. Its DC motors run on the same power solar panels make, so panels plug straight into the unit. Sun out? It runs on solar first. Sun fades? Grid power fills in automatically. You switch nothing, manage nothing — and it works on day one with zero panels.

What you don't need

Inverter
Net metering
Vacuum pump & gauges
Panels plug straight in. That's the whole system.

02How it works

Three ways to power it. Zero switches to flip.

01

Grid only Works on day one

Connect to a 220/240V outlet and enjoy high-efficiency heating and cooling across your connected zones. No solar required — ever, if you choose.

02

Solar only Fully off-grid

Going off grid? We recommend around 3,000 watts of panels for year-round comfort across your connected zones.

03

Hybrid Sunshine first, automatically

The MU24 seamlessly blends grid and solar power so you never lose comfort in any connected zone. Solar is prioritized; grid fills in as needed.

Too little solar? Grid fills in automatically. Too much? No harm done. You never touch a switch.

03Do it yourself (really)

One drill. One afternoon. Six steps.

Most first-timers finish in 2–4 hours. The refrigerant connection itself takes about 5 minutes — by hand.

  1. 01

    Place the outdoor unit

    Set it on a stable surface with room for airflow, positioned to minimize line-set distances to your zones.

  2. 02

    Drill the pass-throughs

    One hole per zone with the included hole saw. Angle slightly downward for drainage.

  3. 03

    Mount the indoor units

    Secure each wall bracket, hang Zone 1 and Zone 2, check they are level.

  4. 04

    Twist to connect each zone

    Route the pre-charged lines from each indoor unit to the outdoor unit. About 5 minutes per zone — no vacuum pump, no gauges.

  5. 05

    Plug in solar (optional)

    Mount the isolator and click the solar connectors together — or skip this and run on grid.

  6. 06

    Turn it on

    Power up, set each zone's comfort mode. Independent temperatures, one system.

Can someone who has never touched HVAC connect a mini-split in under 5 minutes? Timed, on camera.

“So far i have installed both head units and the outside unit. My wife helped hang the inside units, had no problems. I did the rest by myself, still no problems.”

— Jon Keehmer, verified customer

“I have installed over a dozen Airspool units in the last 4 plus years. Zero call backs, zero issues, highly recommend.”

— Tyler Williams, verified customer

You won't be left alone with a manual. Although it is an industry-best manual — full-color photos, written in plain English — you also get dozens of install videos and unlimited phone support if you get stuck.

04The honest question

“Will the twist-connect actually seal?”

What goes wrong with normal DIY mini-splits

Refrigerant leaks from badly-made flare connections. Skipped vacuum steps. Moisture trapped in the lines. Installing a typical mini-split takes a vacuum pump, gauge set, specialized wrenches, adapters, wire cutters — plus the know-how, patience, and time to use them right. Get one step wrong and the system leaks.

Why the MU24 sidesteps all of it

We do that work at our US headquarters. The refrigerant lines arrive pre-charged and sealed with our patent-pending Quick ’n’ EasyTM self-sealing twist valves. No flaring, no vacuum, no moisture risk. You twist the connections by hand — the whole hook-up takes about 5 minutes. They even unscrew and reconnect later without losing refrigerant, if you ever move the unit.

Every single unit is tested on solar, grid, and hybrid power before it leaves our building. That's why we can back it for five years — DIY install included.

    Tyler Williams January 2026 Verified buyer

    I have installed over a dozen Airspool units in the last 4 plus years. Zero call backs, zero issues, highly recommend. Seems possible to find cheaper units now, but I will not stray from these guys. Always someone knowledgeable to talk with when needed, always excellent customer service, worth every penny. The first two units I put on my home over 4 years ago have been running nonstop summer and winter here in Arizona, with no trouble. Just keep the filters and coils clean and enjoy !

    Jon Keehmer November 2025 Verified buyer

    So far i have installed both head units and the outside unit. My wife helped hang the inside units, had no problems. I did the rest by myself, still no problems. Using it now with AC power, will work on the solar next.

    Very happy with it so far.

07The running cost

What it costs to run. Honestly.

50–80% lower cooling-related electricity costs during sunny months — what Airspool customers typically report

Air conditioning is 50–70% of most summer electricity bills. Solar targets that biggest expense directly.

Some customers report running costs under $50 a year — yours depends on sun, climate, and electricity rates.

One outdoor unit, one solar connection, less wiring — a multi-head costs less than two separate systems covering the same rooms.

Run your own numbers: is solar air conditioning worth it?

08Straight talk

Is the MU24 right for you?

We'd rather point you at the right unit than sell you the wrong one.

Right for you if…

  • Two rooms that each need their own temperature — bedrooms, office, den (option to add a third)
  • Rooms reasonably close to one shared outdoor unit
  • 220/240V 20-amp power available — a plug can be added free of charge upon request
  • Winters that rarely drop below 5°F
  • You want solar now, later, or just the option

Not right for you if…

Airspool exists because we decided the hard part of a mini-split install — the refrigerant work — belonged in our shop, not on your wall. Every unit is customized and tested on solar, grid, and hybrid power at our US headquarters before it ships. If you have a question before or after you buy, call or text (725) 699-1200 — you'll get the same people who build and test these units, not a call center.

14Everything else

Questions, answered straight.

How loud is the MU24?

The indoor units operate at a whisper-quiet level — comparable to a library. The outdoor unit is similar to a normal conversation. You’ll barely notice any of them running.

Can I set different temperatures in each zone?

Yes! Each indoor unit has its own remote and can be controlled independently through the Airspool app. Set Zone 1 to 72°F and Zone 2 to 68°F — the system handles it.

Can I heat one zone and cool the other at the same time?

No — this is one of the tradeoffs of a multi-split system. Both zones must be in the same mode (both cooling or both heating). If you need the ability to heat one room while cooling another, consider two separate mini-splits instead.

If I add a third unit, how does the math work? (12K + 12K + 12K = 36K, but the outdoor unit is 24K?)

Great question. With a third indoor unit, the indoor heads total 36,000 BTU (12K + 12K + 12K), but the outdoor compressor is rated at 24,000 BTU. This is normal for multi-splits.

All zones rarely demand maximum power simultaneously. When one room is near its setpoint, it draws less power — leaving more for the other zones. If all the zones are working hard (like initial cool-down on a hot day), the system intelligently distributes capacity. All rooms will still reach their targets.

What's the difference between Zone 1, Zone 2, and an optional Zone 3?

Both included zones use 12,000 BTU indoor heads. Zone 1 includes a 16 ft line set. Zone 2 includes a 10-ft line set, extendable up to 90 ft. If you add the optional third zone, you can choose the head size and line set that fit that room in the builder.

What kind of electrical outlet does the MU24 need?

220/240V, 20-amp — same type used for clothes dryers. Most homes already have this available. A plug can be added free of charge upon request.

Do I need solar panels?

No — the MU24 works perfectly on grid power alone. Add solar whenever you’re ready. We recommend about 3,000 watts (~$1,150 for panels plus mounting) when you do.

How long does the MU24 take to install?

Plan on 3-5 hours. About 2-3 hours for the first zone (mounting, drilling, routing), then another 1-2 hours for the second zone. The twist-to-connect connections are about 5 minutes per zone.

What tools do I need?

Just a drill — and ideally an extra set of hands for hanging the indoor units. We include the hole saw, drill bits, screwdriver bit, level, and all hardware for both zones.

Can I add a 3rd zone later?

The MU24 supports two zones. If you need three zones, check out the MU36 (36,000 BTU, 3 zones). Or combine an MU24 with a separate mini-split for maximum flexibility.

Should I get the MU24 or two separate mini-splits?

Multi-split (MU24) advantages: lower cost, one outdoor unit, less wiring, one solar connection, smaller outdoor footprint.

Separate mini-split advantages: full redundancy, shorter line sets, ability to heat one room while cooling another simultaneously, 120V option for 12K units.

If your zones are close together and don’t need simultaneous heat/cool — go MU24.

Can I move the MU24 after installation?

Yes. All twist-to-connect valves unscrew and reconnect without losing refrigerant. The entire system is portable — disconnect in about 5 minutes per zone.

What happens if I have too much or too little solar power?

Same as all Airspool units. Too little? Grid fills in automatically. Too much? Excess goes unused harmlessly.

What maintenance does the MU24 need?

Clean each indoor unit’s air filter quarterly. Vacuum the indoor coils and spray down the outdoor coil annually. Simple and quick for all zones.

What's included with my MU24?

The standard MU24 package includes 1 outdoor unit (24K BTU), 2 indoor units, pre-charged twist-to-connect line sets for both included zones, 220/240V power cord, communication wire, 2 wall brackets, 2 remote controls, condensate hose, and the free Quick ’n’ EasyTM Bonus Kit. If you add the optional third zone in the builder, that extra indoor unit and its matching hardware are included with that configuration.

How much does shipping cost for the MU24?

Shipping is highly discounted worldwide and shown at checkout before you purchase. The MU24 ships palletized and arrives on a truck with a lift gate to your residence or business.
