Apparatus and process for amateur HVAC installation

Patent # 11125479

 This Summary of the Invention is provided to introduce a selection of concepts in a simplified form that are further described below in the Detailed Description. This Summary is not intended to identify key features or essential features of the claimed subject matter, nor is it intended to be used to limit the scope of the claimed subject matter.

 The present invention generally relates to HVAC systems. More particularly, this invention pertains to an HVAC solution equipped with pre-pressurized line-sets and which configured to be safely installed and maintained by an amateur without professional assistance.

 Accordingly, there is a need for a new HVAC ductless or ducted system, configured for simplified installation by an amateur that has greater efficiency than present duct-free designs on the market, has adequate airflow, is not necessarily reliant on a wall outlet for power, has line-sets which are pre-charged with chemical refrigerants, and may be controlled remotely via a WiFi connection. Such a system is preferably configured to employ quick-connect connection mechanisms equipped with a unique auto-sealing valve disposed at all connection points of the line-set. The line-sets are also equipped with preinstalled insulation, as well as a protection device configured to ensure amateur users may not over-bend the line-set during installation, compromising the line-set.
