The Daikin Aurora Series is a perfect multi-zone mini split system for all climates but especially cold weather climates. It features a heating operating range of -13°F up to 60°F and cooling range from 14°F to 115°F (with optional drain pan heater). These expanded temperature ranges help to make this quad-zone system a great solution as a primary heating and cooling source almost anywhere in the USA. This unit will heat at 100% capacity to temperatures as low as 5°F. Operation will continue with lower temperatures but with reduced heating capacities.
The newly designed drain pan heater (KEH082A41, sold separately) for the 4MXL36TVJU is also more efficient than the drain pan heaters for other outdoor units. The drain pan features 10 drain holes as well as built-in slopes for less ice and water build-up under the unit. This is especially helpful in the colder, Northeast climate of the United States. Similar to current Daikin drain pan heaters, it will be on full time at temperatures at or below 32°F. While other drain pan heaters remain on full time up to about 46°F and then shut off completely, the drain pan heater for the 4MXL will continue to operate at temperatures between 32°F and 50°F, but only before and after the defrosting mode. It will shut off completely when temperatures reach 50°F. Additionally, the PCB board is specially manufactured with enhanced cold climate parts.
Also new on the 4MXL36TVJU is Daikin's Intelligent Defrost Mode. This mode allows the outdoor unit to optimize the duration and frequency of defrost operation based on the last cycle of the system. This will maximize operation without loss of heating during the defrost mode for additional indoor comfort.
With Daikin's new enhanced capacity Quad-Zone solution, any combination of two to four rooms can be controlled individually. It also offers up to 100% Heating Capacity with temperatures as low as 5°F and 100% Cooling Capacity when it is as hot as 104°F. The 4MXL36TVJU Quad-Zone is rated for 34,400 BTU Cooling Capacity and must be connected to a minimum of two and a maximum of four indoor units. The combined BTU ratings of the units chosen can total up to a maximum connected BTU rating of 48,000 BTUs. A mini split system is an excellent way to add air conditioning to separate areas of your home or office. Whether you have just added an additional room or don't have central air, with the 4MXL36TVJU Aurora Series with Enhanced Capacity Mini Split System you can heat and cool up to four separate areas of your home or light commercial space at one time. Simply choose two, three or four indoor units based on your individual needs and before you know it, you will have cooling and heating in your space when and where you want it.
The MXL Aurora Series system, with inverter technology, works with CTXS and FTXS Standard Wall units, the Emura Series Wall units FTXR, the Vista Series FFQ Ceiling Cassette units, FDXS Concealed Duct units, and FVXS Floor units. Depending on the indoor units you choose, with the 4MXL36TVJU outdoor unit you will be able to achieve energy efficiency levels of up to 21.7 SEER, 12.5 EER, and 11.2 HSPF. Comfort control with added savings! When connected to all non-ducted units, the Aurora MXL Series is also Energy Star Rated. With these ratings, utility rebates should be available for you!
The Daikin 4MXL36TVJU incorporates technology which allows you to connect higher BTU indoor units than its 34,400 BTU capacity. This will allow you to address higher load needs that are used at different times such as living spaces and sleeping spaces. Based on the square footage of the rooms you are conditioning, you may need a 15,000 BTU unit for your living room, a 9,000 BTU unit for your bedroom, a 9,000 BTU unit in a second bedroom and a 15,000 BTU unit for the rec room in the basement. With the Aurora Series, you can connect all of these to the 34,400 BTU 4MXL36TVJU outdoor unit. The system will allocate the required BTUs needed in each area up to the total of 34,400 BTUs. Let's say you need to condition the rec room during the day. No one will be in the living room or the bedrooms at this time so you have these zones shut off. When you turn on the system in the living room, the Daikin technology will supply the required BTUs to the living space up to the maximum output of the 15,000 BTU indoor living room unit. A short while later you decide to get the bedroom ready so you turn on the bedroom zone. The system will distribute power to the zones as needed. If all four zones need full power, then each zone will split the 34,400 BTUs respectively, based on each unit's own capacity. For example, the 9,000 BTU units will use approximately 6,500 BTUs while each of the 15,000 BTU units will use approximately 10,750 BTUs per zone. If one zone needs more or is shut off, the system will adjust accordingly.
The 4MXL36TVJU Aurora Series outdoor inverter "variable speed" compressor features a space-saving design and quiet operation. With Reactive Temperature Monitoring, once you set your temperature, the system will automatically adjust output according to the condition requirements. It uses R410A refrigerant, the industry standard. It also includes anti-corrosion treatment of the outdoor Heat Exchanger Fin.
