Why the 5th Generation?

The biggest upgrade in MrCool DIY history

R454B Refrigerant

The new environmentally-friendly refrigerant has 78% lower global warming potential than R410A used in the 4th Gen. It's the future of HVAC — and it's here now.

Built-in WiFi

Control your mini split from anywhere with the MrCool app. Works with Amazon Alexa and Google Home. Set schedules, adjust temperature, monitor energy use.

Quieter Operation

The 5th Gen indoor unit operates as low as 32 dB — quieter than a whisper. Improved compressor technology means the outdoor unit is significantly quieter too.

Higher Efficiency

Up to 22 SEER2 rating means lower energy bills. In California's climate, a mini split can cut your cooling costs by 30-50% compared to central AC.

Beat the California Heat This Summer

California summers are getting hotter. A MrCool DIY mini split cools your space efficiently without the $10,000+ cost of central AC installation. And in winter, it doubles as a heat pump — keeping you warm without gas bills.

☀️

Summer Cooling

Powerful cooling up to 36K BTU. Inverter compressor adjusts speed for consistent comfort. Dehumidifies as it cools.

❄️

Winter Heating

Heat pump mode provides efficient heating down to 5°F. Replace your space heater and save on gas bills. Works in all California climates.

💰

Year-Round Savings

Mini splits use 30-50% less energy than traditional HVAC. No ductwork losses. Zone your home and only cool/heat rooms you use.

Frequently Asked Questions

For rooms up to 250 sq ft, choose the 9K BTU. Up to 350 sq ft, go with 12K BTU (our best seller). 350-550 sq ft needs 18K BTU. 550-750 sq ft needs 24K BTU. For large spaces up to 1,000 sq ft, the 36K BTU is ideal. When in doubt, size up — an oversized unit runs less frequently and lasts longer.

The 5th Gen uses R454B refrigerant (more environmentally friendly than R410A), has improved WiFi connectivity, runs quieter, and achieves higher SEER ratings for better energy efficiency.

Why Buy a MrCool DIY Mini Split?

The MrCool DIY mini split has revolutionized home cooling and heating. Unlike traditional HVAC systems that cost $10,000+ to install with ductwork, a MrCool DIY system can be purchased and installed for a fraction of the price. The pre-charged line sets eliminate the need for an HVAC technician to handle refrigerant, and the quick-connect fittings make installation accessible to any handy homeowner — or our professional installation team.

MrCool DIY 5th Gen vs. Other Mini Split Brands

While brands like Mitsubishi, Daikin, and Fujitsu make excellent mini splits, they require professional installation by a licensed HVAC contractor — adding $2,000-$5,000 to the total cost. The MrCool DIY line is the only ductless mini split designed for true DIY installation. With the 5th Generation's R454B refrigerant, WiFi control, and SEER2 ratings up to 22, you get premium performance without the premium installation cost. And when you buy from Zomg The Handyman, you're buying from an authorized dealer with full warranty support.
