Need to heat and cool 800 sqft. Gets alot of sunlight with 6'x6' windows running 40ft. Would like to keep cost down. Also would like to install myself.

Thanks.

ETA: Also any to avoid?

I got the hybrid solar/grid 24k EG4 unit from signature solar, came with 7 panels outputting up to 3200 watts. It was a diy install and the line sets bolted together. No pump or welding necessary. It has wifi and has been solid. I did have to do a wifi reconnect a few months ago but that was painless. Cost was also around 3200. You can get the non hybrid version that is grid only and has wifi much cheaper. I'm keeping a 2700' barndominium with 60% of that in 10' ceilings and the rest 12' ceilings at 72° You can get wifi remote controls on amazon that duplicates your remote and turns the system on remotely so there's workarounds for non wifi systems. I prefer the wifi as mine tracks solar consumption and grid consumption and pretty much everything else. DIY to me means bolt together line sets.

Some info on my recent installation. I am very happy with the unit so far. Way over cools my space and my electric bill has barely budged for two months
