PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

MRCOOL DIY 5th Gen E-Star Series 18K BTU, 1.5 Ton, 21.5 SEER2 Ductless Mini-Split Heat Pump System with Ceiling Cassette Air Handler – R-454B

The MRCOOL DIY 5th Gen E-Star Series 18K BTU Mini-Split Heat Pump System offers next-generation efficiency, low environmental impact, and true do-it-yourself installation. This single-zone system features a premium ceiling cassette air handler designed for discreet comfort, delivering powerful heating and cooling performance without sacrificing aesthetics.

Unlike traditional wall-mounted units, the MRCOOL ceiling cassette installs between standard 16” ceiling joists, making it the ideal low-profile solution for modern residential and office spaces. This model uses MRCOOL’s latest R-454B refrigerant, which has a lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) and is fully compliant with updated refrigerant regulations.
