Compatible Air Handler Combinations (Max 54,000 BTU)

This condenser supports a wide mix of MRCOOL 5th Gen 6K, 9K, 12K, 18K, 24K, and 36K air handlers. Minimum of 2 air handlers must be connected. Total combined capacity must not exceed 54,000 BTU.

Example combinations:

  • 12K + 12K + 12K + 12K + 6K = 54K
  • 18K + 12K + 9K + 9K + 6K = 54K
  • 24K + 18K + 12K = 54K
  • 36K + 12K + 6K = 54K

Recommended Wire Size

  • Recommended: 8 AWG copper wire – supports 30A MCA and 35A max fuse
  • One Size Smaller (10 AWG): May run hot under load and is not code-compliant at this amperage—avoid use
  • One Size Larger (6 AWG): Best for long runs—minimizes voltage drop and increases safety margin

Note: These units are pre-charged with R-454B and are not compatible with earlier R-410A systems. Always confirm your air handler configuration before purchase. Specifications subject to change.

DIY SO EASY SO COOL

Only bought I tool 3.5" hole saw. Everything else is is in order. Measure area width before purchase though. 18k is larger than the 9k. Had to change locations for it. If not sure. Call them. We have had no air since July. 100+ temps for months. Now I have a blanket on my feet with it set at 73. Will add 2 more downstairs next spring.
