MRCOOL 12k DIY 5th Generation Mini-Split Condenser 115V

Stop waiting for HVAC contractors and paying premium installation fees for medium-sized spaces. The MRCOOL DIY 5th Gen 12,000 BTU Condenser delivers professional-grade outdoor performance for areas between 350-500 sq. ft., engineered specifically for DIY installation without special tools, vacuum pumps, or refrigerant certification. This Energy Star certified outdoor unit comes pre-charged with eco-friendly R-454B refrigerant. With a pre-charged 25-foot QuickConnect line set filled with R-454B refrigerant, setup is simple and eliminates the need for vacuuming

The included DIYPRO cable enhances durability, replacing traditional electrical conduit to protect against weather, animals, and yardwork damage. Controlling your comfort is seamless with multiple options, including the included remote, the SmartHVAC app for Apple and Android devices, or hands-free commands via Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. Additionally, the Gold Fin Condenser provides exceptional corrosion resistance, making it a great choice for coastal environments. Equipped with a variety of features, this system enhances efficiency and comfort. The Timer function helps manage energy use, while Auto mode maintains your desired temperature without constant adjustments. After a power outage, the system automatically resumes previous settings, and the anti-mildew function reduces condensation buildup in the air handler.

Built for longevity, the 5th Generation MRCOOL DIY Mini Split offers an industry-leading warranty, including a limited lifetime warranty, plus a 7-year compressor and 5-year parts warranty. Combining advanced technology, user-friendly operation, and long-term reliability, this system is designed for hassle-free home comfort. Whether you're adding climate control to a master bedroom, large home office, retail space, restaurant dining area, or rental property, this condenser gives you the power to handle bigger spaces without the professional installation headaches.
