The Aurora Series provides energy efficient, comfort control for a single room. This unit is a cooling system with a heat pump. It includes both the indoor and outdoor units as well as a remote control for your convenience. The streamlined, wall-mounted FTX18UVJU pairs with a quiet, compact outdoor unit (RXL18UMVJUA). This unit offers 15,000 BTUs AC capacity and 18,300 BTUs heating. This single zone unit is energy efficient allowing you to control it independently of any other climate control system. This unit has 20.3 SEER and 12.5 EER making it super efficient while running.
Even when the outdoor temperatures drop as low as 50°F, this unit will keep cooling. It will continue to cool with outdoor temperatures ranging from 50°F up to 115°F. If you choose to add an optional wind baffle (KPW937E4, sold separately) and make some field setting adjustments, your system can operate in the cooling mode with an outdoor temperature as low as -4°F allowing you to keep rooms like server rooms or kitchens cool all year long. The heat pump will continue to heat the room at 100% capacity with outdoor temperatures as low as 5°F. It is a great option for several regions of the country. Your Aurora Series will provide heat with outdoor temperatures as low as -13°F.
Daikin is the world leader in cooling technology. They include many standard features in each mini split unit. A variable speed compressor with inverter technology is energy efficient and offers quiet operation. Inverter technology allows the unit to scale production up or down based on the needs of the room. This decreases temperature fluctuations, providing you with the right amount of cooling and heating comfort. Indoors, the wall unit offers a space saving design with quiet operation.
Standard features of the FTX18UVJU include Econo and Stand-by modes, mold resistant washable air filter, auto-swing (both up and down and left to right), auto fan speed, night set mode, dry function, fan only and on/off timer. This heat pump includes features such as auto changeover and hot start function. The RXL18UMVJUA outdoor unit features quiet operation and a slim, compact design that will be relatively unassuming in any outdoor installation. Plus, it includes an Anti-Corrosion Treatment on the heat exchanger to give your system protection from the elements.
Whether you're renovating a single room or adding on an entire wing, this mini split system's space-saving, modular design is ideal. Since a mini split does not tie into your main cooling/heating source, it can be used in many installations including separate areas like a garage, basement, office or nursery.
