- SEER2 rating helps consumers compare energy efficiency when choosing a new air conditioner. Higher SEER2 ratings mean significant utility savings. The federal minimum is 14 SEER2 with ratings into the 20 SEER2 range. A 20 SEER2 uses half the energy of a 10 seer much like MPG ratings for vehicles.
- Heat pumps are all electric and good for mild and cold climates.
- You'll need about 20-30 cooling Btu's for most climates depending on construction type and insulation values.

Mini Split Sizing BTU Calculator
Use this Free & Easy Mini Split BTU Calculator to Select the Right Size Mini Split AC or Heat Pump for your Home.
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.

Daikin Inverter Technology
Instead of repeatedly cycling the compressor on and off like a conventional fixed-speed system, Daikin inverter technology adjusts compressor speed according to changing comfort demands. This helps minimize temperature fluctuations, reduce wasted operation, and maintain more consistent heating and cooling throughout the conditioned spaces.
Cold-Climate AURORA Performance
Daikin AURORA is engineered to continue providing heat when outdoor temperatures fall. The system delivers 100% heating performance down to 0°F and supports heating operation at temperatures as low as -13°F, making it well suited for applications that require dependable heat pump performance through colder weather.
Efficient Two-Zone Comfort
The 2MXT18AVJU9 supports compatible two-zone configurations, allowing a single outdoor condenser to serve two indoor comfort zones. Each properly matched indoor unit can address the comfort requirements of its individual space, providing greater flexibility than conditioning the entire home or application as a single zone.
R32 Refrigerant
The AURORA 2MXT18AVJU9 uses R32 refrigerant, which has a lower Global Warming Potential than R410A. Combined with Daikin inverter technology, R32 supports the next generation of efficient Daikin residential heating and cooling equipment.
Built for Long-Term Outdoor Performance
An anti-corrosion treatment on the outdoor heat exchanger uses a hydrophilic coating designed to help keep the outdoor coil clean through rainfall or simple rinsing. This protective treatment helps support long-term system efficiency and durability.
Build flexible two-zone comfort with the Daikin AURORA 2MXT18AVJU9 18,000 BTU Multi-Zone Heat Pump Condenser. Always verify approved indoor-unit combinations and system matchups before selecting equipment.

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:
- Hire a licensed HVAC technician in your area
- Use platforms like Angi, Thumbtack, or a local HVAC directory to find reliable professionals
- Confirm your installer is experienced with the system type you’re purchasing
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.
