To rephrase: what was the problem with the pioneer?
Seems like lack of maintenance, or a refrigerant leak, or even replacing the batteries in the remote control could be a repairable situation.Edward Young Retired
After you make that expensive repair and you still have the same problem, What will you check next?

Can you locate the leak? Tech support can't help you do that. Someone on site must be there to find the leak. Once you locate the leak then you need to repair the leak.PaintherMofe said:It's a leak and it works and stops. I tried to contact tech support but I did not get help
I don't think you would replace an automobile that stops working because the radiator fluid spills out on the driveway. I think you might repair the leak in the radiator or the hoses before you consider a replacement vehicle. But if you are that kind of person, I would select Mercedes over VW. But that, just my German choices.
Hope that helps.Edward Young Retired

I have read on other forums that the amount of moisture from a greenhouse will cause mold growth in mini splits. Also VOC offgassing from fertilizer can also kill mini splits too. No first hand experience, just relaying other reports.Slant Fin Galaxy GG100(1986) , 2 zone hot water baseboard, T87 Honeywell thermostats.1

If this is an indoor growing facility, such as the kind to grow marijuana, you should treat it almost like a pool room, but that gets expensive. A mini split will cool it well, but will likely not last very long in that environment. Depending on the overall size of the operation "throwaway" splits (the cheapest ones you can find) may still be the best option. If you want them to last longer you really need to get in and clean the junk off of them, as @gyrfalcon mentioned mold can grow on them and cause issues in short order0

I'd suspect you'd need something with a stainless evaporator and to protect the refrigerant lines from condensation to last in that environment.0
