Model #: 2MXTH18AVJU9
When using a mini split sizing calculator for rooms below a conditioned space, apply an additional .7 factor to your final Btu outcome.
For example, if your Btu requirement via this calculator is 18,000 Btu's: 18,000 Btu's x .7 factor = 12,600 Btu's required. When in doubt, it is okay to go up a size or two. Unlike standard non-variable systems, The mini split inverter technology allows the system to adjust to the actual room requirements in both heating and cooling.
The Daikin 2MXTH18AVJU9 is a dual-zone, cold-climate heat pump system designed to deliver efficient heating and cooling to two separate indoor spaces. With a total capacity of 18,000 BTU/h, this system supports a variety of indoor unit combinations (7,000 to 15,000 BTU/h), making it ideal for bedrooms, living rooms, or home offices.
Engineered for energy savings and quiet performance, the 2MXTH18AVJU9 features a SEER2 rating of 21.0, EER2 of 12.0, and HSPF2 of 10.0. It uses R32 refrigerant, which is more environmentally friendly than older alternatives, and includes a hermetically sealed swing compressor for long-lasting, low-maintenance operation. The system is designed to perform efficiently even at 5°F outdoor temperatures, with a COP of 1.8.
Installation is flexible, with support for up to 164 feet of total piping length and 49 feet of elevation difference between units. The outdoor unit operates at a quiet 54 dB(A) and is built with anti-corrosion protection, making it suitable for coastal or harsh environments.
Its built-in drain pan heater ensures reliable operation even in freezing temperatures, making it a smart choice for colder regions.
What Is a Drain Pan Heater?
In a heat pump system, the drain pan collects condensation that forms during the heating and defrost cycles. In cold weather, this water can freeze, leading to ice buildup that may damage the unit or reduce its efficiency.
A drain pan heater is an electric heating element installed in the pan. It automatically activates when temperatures drop, preventing ice from forming by gently warming the pan. This ensures that water drains properly and the system continues to operate smoothly
Who installs the AC unit after I purchase it?
ACDirect does not yet provide installation services directly. However, most of our customers successfully arrange installation through local licensed HVAC contractors. These systems are designed for professional installation and typically include the components your installer will need.
Here’s how it works:
Note:
Please be aware if you choose to install HVAC equipment yourself and don’t possess proper HVAC licensing, you will void the manufacturer’s factory warranty. If you are capable of a factory-compliant installation yourself, you will need a licensed HVAC contractor to sign off on your work, fully confirming factory-compliant workmanship.
