MRCOOL DIY 5th Gen 36,000 BTU 5-Zone Ductless Mini Split Heat Pump System (9K + 18K Air Handlers with 25 ft QuickConnect Line Sets)

The MRCOOL DIY® 5th Gen 36,000 BTU 5-Zone Multi-Zone Bundle is a comprehensive HVAC solution designed to deliver personalized heating and cooling across multiple areas of your home or workspace, while still offering true DIY installation convenience. This system combines a high-capacity 36,000 BTU outdoor condenser with two indoor wall-mounted air handlers — a 9,000 BTU unit for smaller rooms and an 18,000 BTU unit for larger spaces — providing versatile zoning capabilities for enhanced comfort and efficiency.

Installation is simplified through the use of QuickConnect® pre-charged line sets, which come factory sealed with refrigerant and eliminate the need for vacuum pumps or other professional HVAC tools. The included 25-ft line sets offer flexibility in unit placement and make the installation manageable with basic tools, saving both time and cost.

Each indoor unit operates independently, allowing you to set different temperatures in each zone. The system’s advanced DC inverter technology ensures smooth, efficient, and quiet operation throughout the year, reducing energy consumption while maintaining optimal comfort. Wireless remote controls make it easy to manage each zone, and smart control readiness enables remote access and integration with smart home systems.

Built with durability in mind, the outdoor condenser features corrosion-resistant construction that withstands varied environments and weather conditions. Backed by robust manufacturer warranty coverage, this MRCOOL DIY® multi-zone system bundle is ideal for homeowners seeking professional-grade zoned heating and cooling with true DIY installation ease.
