DuctlessAire Outdoor Wall Bracket - Mini Split Mounting Bracket - Ductless Air Conditioner Wall Mount - Mini Split AC/Heating System Accessories for Window AC, HVAC, Heat Pump & More (9000-36000 BTU)

This mini split mounting bracket is sturdy and well-made. Installation was straightforward, and it holds the unit securely without any wobbling. The metal feels durable and weather-resistant, giving confidence that it will last. Overall, a reliable bracket that does its job and makes mounting a mini split much easier.

Instructions say the top horizontal arm holds no weight and weight must be placed on the fasteners of the 2 vertical arms. So Its nice to hit 2 studs. Unfortunately I did not, and hit 1 stud..Then Drilled a 1/2 inch hole into the stud. Trying to install a toggle bolt...Luckily, after careful deliberation I filled the 1/2 inch hole with exterior wood glue and a piece of half inch dowel, and was able to capture, at least, 1 vertical arm with the included lag bolt fasteners on a stud. The other arm got the toggle bolts. Unfortunately I could not locate a stud for 1 vertical arm. After doing some heavy engineering maths on 3 or 4 different types of fasteners I used, I came up with the number of how much weight this could hold, based on the fasteners, and it was well over 4x the 60 lbs. I weighed my condenser at. Using the engineering maths weights I felt comfortable doing a few dips off of the mounting bracket to check my work. I do believe the top horizontal arm does add some structural support and the manual is saying dont depend on it, just forget the top arm exists when making your engineering weight calculations with fasteners and what youre mounting into. Now that the mount is mounted with fasteners. The quality of the mount is there. Its fully capable of securing the 55 lbs of load. The rubber feet dampeners do help with noise reduction and I consider what is included robust for the quality of the dampener. Most importantly is the arms length. Its a little longer and gets my unit farther away from a flush mount with the wall. This is important to increase the efficiency of the unit as it tries to draw in air from behind it. You want these long arms to give more room behind the unit.

These brackets worked out perfectly for our mini split installation. The unit was professionally installed, and even the installers commented on the solid quality of the brackets and how well they were built to hold the weight. The picture shows our larger 24,000 BTU C&H unit, and the brackets are supporting it with no problem at all. They’ve proven sturdy and reliable, giving us confidence in the setup, and I will update this review if anything changes!

This wall mount is great,I bought a 2nd one I was so impressed with the first. What I believe sets this apart from the majority of the other mounts, is the bracket that you mount to slide both of the legs into allows you to easily line up and adjust the width of the compressor mounts vs. the other mounts which require you to be pretty much dead on when you mount them width wise. The same is for the depth of the mounting feet which give you plenty of adjustment for pretty much any mini split mounting footprint. The mount is well built and solid and I don't foresee any issues with it. I used them both, one for an 18k compressor and also a 12k compressor. There was still plenty of adjustments for the mounting pads that I'm sure would accommodate up to the largest mini split compressors. The anti-vibration pads work great and were easy to install and line up. I would highly recommend this mount as I don't think it can be beat both for the price and quality and ease of mounting. 7 stars

This is the actual wall mount I used for my mini-split outdoor unit. Overall, it’s solid and does the job, but it loses a star because it does not have standard 16" on-center mounting points, which is a real consideration for wood-frame construction. To install it properly and ensure it could handle the shear load, I had to add horizontal 2×6 blocking tied into the studs. Once mounted that way, the bracket felt secure and stable with no flex. The bracket itself is well-built and works fine for the supported BTU range, but installers should be aware that extra framing may be required if you’re mounting on a typical stud wall. If you plan for that ahead of time, it’s a good product—but it’s not a simple bolt-to-stud solution out of the box.

The instructions are very clear it all went together easily. I used the provided wall fasteners, but they will need to be painted- they will rust.

Works as designed

Simple to install, works well with a 18K unit, has all the hardware needed. Not much else to say
