Frequently Asked Questions
What size mini split stand do I need?
Most single fan mini split units work well with our standard stands such as the PS-GS-12, PS-GS-18, and PS-GS-24 stand. For double fan units, or for larger single fan condensers, you may require the PS-GSX-12, PS-GSX-18, and PS-GSX-24. Each product page on our website contains product drawings with mounting dimensions. Always check your unit’s mounting hole spacing before ordering.
Are your stands compatible with Mr. Cool units?
Yes, our XL aluminum stands are compatible with most Mr. Cool mini split units. Our PS-GSX-12, PS-GSX-18, and PS-GSX-24 will all fit Mr. Cool.
Should I order a 12", 18", or 24" stand?
For northern climates that get snow, often times code will specify what height a mini split needs to be off the ground. Most HVAC contractors use either 12" or 18" stands. For climates that don't get snow and just want to get their mini splits off the ground to prevent damage from moisture and debris, a 12" stand is usually sufficient.
Do you offer contractor pricing?
Yes! Please send us an email off the contact form, and we'll send along discounted pricing. Please note that these discounts are reserved for HVAC contractors only, not for homeowners.
Are Pro Stands good for coastal environments?
Definitely. Most of the competing products, including the Diversitech Quick Sling, are made from painted steel which will begin to rust very quickly from salt air along the coasts. Pro Stands are made from powder coated aluminum and will never rust.
Are Pro Stands products a good alternative to the Diversitech Quick Sling?
Absolutely. Pro Stands products are similarly priced to Quick Sling. Customers love that Pro Stands products are powder coated aluminum, set up in under 5 minutes, are very rigid, highly adjustable, feature long-lasting EPDM rubber anti-vibration pads, and are Made in America!
Are your products BABA compliant?
Yes! For projects using federal funding, the Build America Buy America Act has a requirement for sourcing product that is predominantly manufactured in the USA. Pro Stands products are some of the only commercially available, stocked offerings that would be BABA compliant.
