A cool project….

I used to use an old Airstream trailer as my office. It came with the typical RV air conditioner that was so loud I couldn't hear the phone, and no heat. I installed a mini split heat/cool system with the outside unit on the trailer tongue (I used Austin Healey anti-sway bar bushings for noise insulation). It is so quiet I can barely hear it.
 
I am curious how it performs once summer really kicks in for you in central PA. If the heat pump handled winter fine, cooling should be the easy part by comparison.
I ran it over the weekend when the temps and humidity were high and it cooled my work area just fine.
 
Nice, great that you could do it with your hands, avoiding extra costs.
It was actually pretty straightforward. Basic electrical and carpentry skills. I was lucky that I knew someone who had a vacuum pump which you need to remove moisture from the lines.
