I'll start off by saying, i know nothing about mini splits. What i have is a drive under basement, that's about 1600sq ft. It's about half under ground, with 2 garage doors on one end. We park my car, my wifes jeep, my 2500 and my boat in there. It's usually fairly comfortable in the basement, with summer time temps getting as high as 80, and winter time temps about 50.
Right now, it's 77, but humid. I'd like to both decrease humidity, and cool it down a few degrees. One of the threads recently on here had me looking at mini splits, but I don't really know much about them.
Price looks pretty good, 1k-2k. Looks like top brands would ve Mitsubishi, LG and the like. I'm not sure what brand, how big, or how hard of an install they would be. My basement is insullated, but unfinished. Any advice would be appreciated. Here's a picture of part of the space.
