PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

MRCOOL® DIYHH-18 Hyper Heat 18K BTU Condenser – 5th Gen DIY QuickConnect® (230V)

New for 2025 – 18K Hyper Heat DIY Condenser with Pre-Charged 25 ft Line Set

The MRCOOL® DIYHH-18-HP-C-230D25-O is the strongest 18,000 BTU Hyper Heat DIY condenser on the market, engineered for powerful year-round comfort and reliable heating down to –22°F. This 5th Gen outdoor unit ships with a factory-charged R-454B QuickConnect® line set so you can install it without vacuum pumps, gauges, EPA licenses, or refrigerant handling.

This listing is for the condenser and 25 ft pre-charged line set only. Pair it with a compatible MRCOOL DIY wall mount air handler or DIY OuttaSight® ceiling cassette (sold separately).

IMPORTANT: This is a 208/230V condenser. It cannot be used with 115V air handlers.


The 5th Gen DIY Mini Split Condenser That Leaves Others Behind

If you want the best 18K BTU DIY mini split condenser for cold climates, you are looking at it. The DIYHH-18 Hyper Heat condenser is built on MRCOOL’s 5th Generation platform, delivering:

  • Stronger heat output at low temperatures
  • Higher efficiency with 21.2 SEER2 and 11 HSPF2
  • Next-generation R-454B low-GWP refrigerant
  • More durable outdoor performance with Gold Fin® anti-corrosion
  • Cleaner, quieter inverter rotary compressor operation

No refrigerant handling. No vacuum pump. No licensed HVAC installer. Just connect, tighten, and turn it on. This condenser is a big part of why MRCOOL dominates the DIY mini split market.

Hyper Heat Performance for Real Winters

Most “DIY mini splits” start losing capacity or shutting down as temperatures approach freezing. The MRCOOL DIYHH-18 Hyper Heat delivers usable heat down to –22°F, making it unstoppable in:

  • Midwest and Northeast winters
  • Tennessee & Kentucky cold snaps
  • Mountain and northern states
  • Coastal climates with wind, rain, and salt exposure

You will not find this capability on cheap brands or older 4th Gen units.

Smarter, Quieter, More Efficient

The 5th Gen inverter technology modulates compressor output to maintain steady comfort without harsh on/off cycling or loud startup noise. The result:

  • Lower energy bills
  • Longer component life
  • Faster temperature recovery
  • Premium comfort you can feel in every season

This condenser is ideal for master bedrooms, home offices, garages, workshops, barndominiums, tiny homes, ADUs, apartments, bonus rooms, and any space where ductwork is a headache.
