Daikin / Contractor equipment reference

Daikin MXM Multi-Zone Heat Pumps

Plan a multi-room R-32 system with outdoor-unit specifications, indoor-combination guidance and manufacturer literature in one contractor reference.

Plan the equipment around the job

Choose the zones before choosing the outdoor unit.

An MXM proposal starts with each room’s load, the indoor-unit styles and the way those rooms will be used. Outdoor nominal size is one part of the selection—not a promise of full capacity at every indoor unit simultaneously.

01 / Indoor combinations

Specify every room and every head

Record the complete indoor model for each zone. Wall mounts, concealed units and other styles must be checked against the combination tables for the selected outdoor model; a shared brand or refrigerant does not approve a pairing.

02 / Connected capacity

Compare demand, not just nameplates

Use the manufacturer’s allowed combinations and corrected performance data. Adding indoor nameplate capacities does not establish the capacity available to a particular room when several zones call together.

03 / Installation planning

Bring the full piping route

Total piping length, each room’s branch length and vertical separation are different limits. Document the proposed route and required controls before quoting the equipment and installation accessories.

  • These values cover the listed AVJU9 models. They do not establish AVJU8 or five-zone 5MXM48 specifications.
  • Nominal size and port count are selection identifiers. Confirm connected indoor capacity, corrected capacity and operating limits for the complete job.
  • Cabinet dimensions are not installation clearances. Port sizes do not replace the manufacturer’s branch-piping and adapter requirements.
  • Confirm electrical data against the unit nameplate and applicable installation instructions before designing the circuit.

Match the indoor units before putting efficiency on the proposal.

The published MXM family reaches up to 21 SEER2 and 10 HSPF2 in qualifying combinations. The actual rated combination, indoor-unit arrangement and application determine which figures apply. Select the complete outdoor and indoor models in the AHRI finder, then verify the official record. Design-temperature capacity still requires the manufacturer’s performance data.

  1. Room-by-room loads, design temperatures and intended use of each zone.
  2. Full outdoor model and every indoor-unit model, including style and capacity.
  3. Total piping, individual branch lengths, elevations and planned equipment locations.
  4. Electrical supply, control strategy, drainage and required installation accessories.
  5. The rated combination and the documents needed for the proposal and startup.

Selection questions

Does a four-port outdoor unit approve any four indoor units?

No. Port count is only the connection limit. Confirm the manufacturer’s indoor-model combinations and connected-capacity rules, then establish the capacity available for the actual operating conditions.

Does the chart cover five-zone MXM equipment?

No. The engineering reference used for this chart covers the listed two-, three- and four-port models. Use the separate manufacturer instructions and specifications for 5MXM48 equipment.

What should be included in the price comparison?

Compare the complete indoor/outdoor combination, controls, drainage, mounting and piping accessories, delivery needs and installation scope. Ask Mar-Hy for current contractor pricing and availability; this page is not a live stock feed.
