What this specific model is sized for, how it installs, how it performs, and what it costs to run.

Room & Space Coverage — 18,000 BTU

The ProDirect 1.5 Ton up to 15 SEER2 18,000 BTU Split System Heat Pump delivers 18,000 BTU of cooling and heating capacity (1.5-ton class), sized for spaces up to 900 sq ft in standard 8-ft ceiling rooms with average insulation. At this capacity the unit handles medium primary rooms, master suites with attached bath, converted garages, and workshops. If your space includes a sunny west-facing wall or a finished bonus room above it, lean toward the upper end of the coverage range.

Efficiency & Operating Cost

This unit is rated at 14.3 SEER2 and 11.7 EER2 at full load. SEER2 measures seasonal cooling efficiency — higher is better — and 14.3 meets current federal baseline. For heating performance it carries a 7.5 HSPF2 rating, which translates to roughly 200–250% heating efficiency versus resistance electric — one kilowatt-hour of electricity moves three kWh of heat into the space at mild outdoor temperatures. Running the unit 8 hours a day at full load draws roughly 302 kWh/month — about $48/month at the US average $0.16/kWh residential rate. Real-world draw is usually 30–50% lower because inverter compressors modulate down most of the time.

Power & Electrical Requirements

Power requirement: 230V 1-phase 60Hz (standard US residential 240V service).

Install Difficulty — Professional Install

This is a professionally-installed condenser that requires a licensed HVAC technician with EPA 608 certification. The tech will pull a vacuum on the line set to 500 microns, pressure-test with nitrogen, release the factory charge, and commission per MrCool's startup procedure. Budget 1 full day for install on a single-zone system.

Sound Level & Comfort Features

Rated sound output is 60 dB(A) at full operation.

Warranty & Certifications

When you register your unit within 60 days of purchase you get 10 year parts on parts through MrCool's registered warranty program. AHRI certified and UL/ETL listed for North American electrical safety — required for most utility rebate and tax credit programs.

What's in the Box & Compatibility

Ships as a Split System Heat Pump.

Product Details

You deserve the best year-round comfort for the longest amount of time, which is why you should switch out your old, faulty condenser with the MRCOOL ProDirect 1.5 Ton 15 SEER Split System Heat Pump Condenser. This unit has a rotary compressor that pressurizes the refrigerant to get it ready to absorb more heat from your home. The piston flow control device that it runs through is great for increasing efficiency, because it regulates the speed and the volume of the refrigerant. This unit is equipped to take care of you for years to come, thanks in part to the galvanized steel cabinet and the Gold Fin® condenser coating. This coating, which is environmentally friendly, completely non-toxic, and improves insulation, stops rust and corrosion from forming by keeping water from sticking to the coils. When you register your unit online, you’ll be able to enjoy an industry-leading warranty. Admitting you need a new heating and cooling system is a big step, so make sure you get the best with the MRCOOL ProDirect 1.5 Ton 15 SEER Split System Heat Pump Condenser.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about this product

What size room will the ProDirect 1.5 Ton up to 15 SEER2 18,000 BTU Split System Heat Pump cool?

At 18,000 BTU this unit is sized for rooms up to 900 sq ft under standard 8-ft ceilings with average insulation. Add 10–20% for sun-exposed rooms, poorly insulated spaces, or ceilings above 9 ft.

Do I need a licensed HVAC installer?

Yes — this unit is professionally-installed. The installer needs EPA 608 certification to handle the refrigerant, plus standard HVAC tools (vacuum pump, manifold gauges, nitrogen kit). Expect a one-day install on a single-zone system, more on multi-zone.

Is this unit eligible for the federal 25C tax credit?

At 14.3 SEER2 this unit may not meet the 25C efficiency threshold — check the current ENERGY STAR CEE tier requirements. Confirm with your tax advisor and save the AHRI certificate from your order confirmation.

What electrical circuit do I need for installation?

230V dedicated circuit with the disconnect within sight of the outdoor unit per NEC 440.14. An electrician will size the breaker based on the minimum circuit ampacity shown on the nameplate. Budget $400–$900 for a new dedicated 240V circuit if one isn't already present.

What warranty do I get?

10 year parts parts warranty with registration (3-minute process at mrcool.com within 60 days of purchase). Without registration, coverage drops significantly — make registration part of your install-day checklist.
