Common questions

Will an 18K handle a two-car garage?
That's a common fit. Go up a size if the garage is uninsulated or has high ceilings.

What breaker does it need?
MRCOOL lists 18 A minimum circuit ampacity and a 20 A maximum breaker on a dedicated 230V circuit. A qualified electrician should size the wire.

How far can the indoor and outdoor units be apart?
The line can run up to 75 ft with up to 65.6 ft of height difference, per MRCOOL's manual. The bundle includes 25 ft.

Can I extend the line set?
Yes, with a 1/4 × 1/2 in extension and the 18K coupler kit.
