MRCOOL DIY® 5th Generation Single-Zone Mini Split System

This MRCOOL DIY® 5th Generation single-zone mini split system is a complete heating and cooling solution for homeowners who are done dealing with window units and portable ACs that are loud, inefficient, and temporary. It provides permanent, year-round comfort for a single room, garage, workshop, or addition, without requiring professional HVAC installation.

The system is sold as a matched package that includes both the outdoor condenser and the wall-mounted indoor air handler, ensuring proper performance and compatibility. Everything needed for installation is included, and no special tools, vacuum pumps, or refrigerant handling are required. If you are comfortable with basic home improvement projects, this system can be installed on your own schedule, saving significant labor costs.

DIY installation is made possible by the pre-charged Quick Connect® line set, which comes factory sealed with R-454B refrigerant already inside. The included 25 ft line set is part of the system and cannot be removed or exchanged for a different length. Installation is completed by tightening the connections with a standard wrench, with no vacuuming, brazing, or HVAC training required.

If the full line set length is not needed, the excess can be neatly coiled behind the outdoor condenser without affecting system performance, as long as the line set is not cut or modified.

The wall-mounted indoor air handler delivers quiet, consistent airflow and maintains steady temperatures without the hot and cold swings common with window units. Temperature and mode adjustments can be made using the included remote or through the SmartHVAC app, allowing control from anywhere. Voice control through Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant is supported but not required for normal operation.

This system is available in multiple capacities and power options to match different spaces and electrical setups. The 9k and 12k BTU models operate on 115V power and are well suited for standard rooms and smaller areas. The 18k, 24k, and 36k BTU models operate on 230V power and are intended for larger rooms, garages, workshops, and open spaces that require higher output and efficiency.

Warranty coverage is designed for long-term ownership. The system includes a standard 7-year compressor warranty and a 5-year parts warranty. Homeowners who enroll in the MRCOOL Care auto-ship program can upgrade coverage to a limited lifetime compressor warranty.

What Is Included

  • DIY® 5th Gen outdoor condenser, factory charged with R-454B

  • DIY® 5th Gen wall-mounted indoor air handler

  • 25 ft factory-sealed pre-charged Quick Connect® line set

  • Communication wire and drain hose

  • Remote control and WiFi dongle

This system is a practical upgrade for homeowners who want dependable heating and cooling, cleaner installation than window units, and the ability to do the work themselves without cutting corners.

  • MRCOOL DIY Mini Split Sizing Guide


    Which air handler is best for your room size?

    The size of your room is the main factor in choosing the right unit. MRCOOL DIY 4th Gen comes in various sizes, each designed to cool and heat specific square footage ranges.

    Here's a quick reference for choosing the right BTU based on your room size:

    • 6,000 BTU covers up to 250 square feet
    • 9,000 BTU covers up to 350 square feet.
    • 12,000 BTU covers up to 550 square feet.
    • 18,000 BTU covers up to 800 square feet.
    • 24,000 BTU covers up to 1,050 square feet.
    • 36,000 BTU covers up to 1,500 square feet.

    How BTU Limits Work in Your Mini-Split System

    You can opt for high BTU air handlers for strong heating and cooling. But, if you plan to run multiple air handlers at the same time, consider the main unit's (condenser) maximum power.

    Here’s the deal: Suppose your condenser can handle 18,000 BTU, and you have two indoor air handlers, each at 12,000 BTU. If both run simultaneously, they’ll automatically adjust to 9,000 BTU each to match the condenser's limit. This ensures the system runs safely.

    If you usually run one air handler at a time, a lower BTU condenser might be sufficient. But if you plan to use all air handlers together, a higher BTU condenser is the way to go. This lets you enjoy the full power of each air handler without overloading the system.

    By considering these factors, you can ensure your MRCOOL DIY 4th Gen unit is perfectly sized for your needs, keeping you comfortable year-round.
