Description
The Daikin 2MXTH18AVJU9 is a 1.5-ton, 2-zone Aurora series multi-split heat pump outdoor unit engineered for cold-climate ductless installations. Using R-32 refrigerant and an inverter-driven swing compressor, this enhanced-capacity condenser delivers 17,200 BTU/h cooling and 18,000 BTU/h heating capacity to two independently controlled indoor zones.
What sets this Aurora unit apart is its built-in drain pan heater, which prevents ice buildup around the base pan during freezing conditions — a key feature for contractors installing in northern climates where standard units risk drainage issues in sub-freezing temperatures. This is paired with automatic defrost and a quick warming function to maintain reliable heating performance even as outdoor temperatures drop, plus anti-corrosion treatment on the outdoor heat exchanger for long-term durability in harsh weather.
The unit also offers Night Quiet Mode and quiet outdoor operation for installs near bedrooms or property lines, along with priority room setting and cool/heat mode lock for flexible zone management. Built-in self-diagnosis with LED indicators and a wiring error check function help installing contractors troubleshoot quickly in the field.
Operating on 208-230V single-phase power at 60 Hz with a 19.6 min. circuit amp rating, the 2MXTH18AVJU9 is ENERGY STAR certified and backed by a 12-year limited parts warranty with online registration. Manufactured by Daikin Comfort Technologies in Mexico, it ships with 3/8″ gas and 1/4″ liquid line connections for standard mini-split line set installation.
