Our take on the MRCOOL DIY Select 18,000 BTU Ductless Mini-Split System (Indoor + Outdoor), 230V

The MRCOOL DIY Select 18,000 BTU is a ductless mini-split that heats and cools up to 800 sq ft on 230V power. Its selling point is true DIY installation: the 11.5 ft line set comes pre-charged with R-454B, so there is no vacuuming, and the 13 ft DIYPRO cable removes the need for electrical conduit. It is a single-zone system with a wall-mounted indoor unit, remote, app and Alexa/Google control. Against pro-installed brands like Mitsubishi and Daikin it trades some efficiency and multi-zone flexibility for self-installation, and owners of the DIY line generally report it works well when the line set is handled carefully.

What reviewers say

Owners of MRCOOL DIY systems generally report the pre-charged line set makes installation manageable for a careful DIYer, and that the unit cools and heats a room well. Complaints tend to center on the 230V wiring work and on line-set connections that need to be seated correctly.

Questions and answers

Can I really install this myself?
Yes, the design is aimed at DIYers: the line set is pre-charged so no vacuuming is needed, and the DIYPRO cable avoids conduit. You still need a 230V power source at the outdoor unit, which often means an electrician.
How large a space will 18,000 BTU handle?
MRCOOL rates it for rooms up to 800 sq ft. Insulation, ceiling height and sun exposure change that, so a well-sealed room is the best fit.
Does it heat as well as cool?
It is a heat pump and provides heat as well as cooling. Output drops in very cold weather, so in harsh climates treat it as supplemental heat.
What comes in the box?
The wall-mounted indoor unit, outdoor condenser, 11.5 ft pre-charged line set, 13 ft DIYPRO cable, wall plate and hardware, and a wireless remote.
Can I control it from my phone?
Yes, through the MRCOOL Comfort app, and it also works with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.
Can I add a second indoor unit later?
No. This is a single-zone system with one indoor unit; multi-zone setups need a different MRCOOL model.
