Daikin RXV12AVJU9 Ductless Heat Pump Outdoor Unit 1 Ton

Product Description

The DAIKIN RXV12AVJU9 is a ductless mini-split outdoor unit designed for heat pump operation in residential and light-commercial applications. Part of the RXV series, this unit operates on R-32 refrigerant and is rated at 1 ton nominal capacity. R-32 has a lower global warming potential than R-410A, making it a common choice in modern high-efficiency ductless systems. The unit is installed outdoors and pairs with a compatible indoor air handler to form a complete ductless heating and cooling system. HVAC technicians handle installation and commissioning of this equipment.

This outdoor unit is designed to connect to an FFA series indoor ceiling cassette air handler, making it suited for applications where a flush-mount ceiling cassette provides the preferred air distribution. Ceiling cassette configurations are common in commercial spaces, server rooms, open-plan offices, and residential rooms where wall-mounted or floor-mounted units are not practical. The 1-ton capacity targets smaller zones or individual rooms requiring dedicated climate control.
