The inside unit on a typical mini split probably weighs about the same as a mini split so I would guess it would be sturdy enough. The inside unit needs to be mounted on a secure mount that doesn't move. The copper lines will not tolerate any movement. I have heard of people using special flex lines but I am not familiar with those. -
Yea, I looked on my limited access and didn't find anything. I will keep looking though. Rod -
I think the mounting arm is the failure point and if you remove it from the install I would think you would be fine. Do take the mounting bolts out of the bracket and ensure they are "Machine" thread and not a "Wood Screw" type. Apply a bit of Locktite and monitor it. You could put a 25lb weight on it and take it for a spin to see if anything loosens up while on the road. Depending on what season you plan to use it most would be my biggest location concern. You want it above you if you plan on mostly hot weather use and below you if it's mostly cold weather. I guess in the middle if you want to use for both but, make sure you can tolerate if it's "Blowing" directly on someone who is trying to sleep in front of the outlet. Noise from the ODU is also a potential issue I didn't take into consideration when having the upgrade HVAC install several years ago. The ODU still is TOO NOISY at times and soon I'll have to turn the IDU in the living area off because even with the temperature set to my comfort level in that area if the kitchen wants more cooling it transfers that desire to my desk. So far I haven't figured out how to keep the super cold chill from going down my neck. Rod

You’re right Dan. I should have said possible rate increases or cancellation. I mentioned it because Miller Insurance (where we have our Progressive policy) wanted me to be aware of the possibility.
