Description
Overview
This Mitsubishi Electric Smart Multi heat pump system pairs the MXZ-SM48NL outdoor unit with 3 PEAD-AA mid-static ducted indoor units connected through a branch box for tri-zone heating and cooling. Every indoor unit uses the same mount style, so each room gets matching appearance, airflow and controls. The system runs on 208/230V, 1-phase, 60 Hz power and uses R-454B refrigerant.
What Is Included
- 1 x MXZ-SM48NL Smart Multi outdoor unit
- 2 x PEAD-AA09NL (9,000 BTU class PEAD-AA mid-static ducted)
- 1 x PEAD-AA15NL (15,000 BTU class PEAD-AA mid-static ducted)
- 1 x PAC-LMA30BC 3-port branch box
Performance
Ducted system ratings for the MXZ-SM48NL: up to 17 SEER2, 8.4 EER2 and 9.5 HSPF2, with rated capacities of 48,000 BTU/h cooling and 50,000 BTU/h heating. Connected indoor capacity for this combination totals 33,000 BTU/h class (9K + 9K + 15K). Heating operation is rated down to -13 F outdoor temperature. Final efficiency depends on the exact AHRI-matched combination.
Comfort and Noise
Each zone has its own indoor unit and controller, so occupied rooms can be conditioned independently. The INVERTER-driven compressor modulates capacity to hold set points closely and reduce on/off cycling.
Smart Features
Wi-Fi control through the Mitsubishi Electric Comfort app is available with the optional Wi-Fi interface kit. Each indoor unit supports Mitsubishi Electric wireless or wired controllers.
Use Case Fit
Concealed ducted indoor units sit in an attic, crawlspace or soffit and deliver air through short duct runs. Confirm room loads, line set lengths, branch box location and electrical requirements before ordering.
Value and Reliability
Bundling the outdoor unit, matched indoor units and branch boxes in one product simplifies ordering. Warranty: 7 Years Compressor & 5 Years Parts | Registration Required within 90 Days of Purchase
