No minisplit contractors close by
Would it be stupid to install a Fujitsu or Mitsub minisplit with the nearest Fujitsu or Mitsub contractor 60-75 miles away? Can other contractors work on these?

Brad,
I'm in favor of having a service technician closer than that -- 30 miles or less.
There isn't a lot of proprietary "special magic" under the sheet metal, but some, and competent refrigeration techs should be able to debug most problems. Having support closer than 60-70 miles is better than not having it, but 60-70 miles isn't necessarily a show-stopper if the contractor is dedicated to supporting their installs. You'd have to read the fine print on the warranty to find out whether having a random refrigeration tech working on it creates a problem.
