MRCOOL MDPH18060D — Universal 5-Ton (60 kBTU) 18 SEER2 DC Inverter Packaged Heat Pump R-32

Product Description 

The MRCOOL MDPH18060D Universal 5-Ton packaged heat pump delivers 60,000 BTU of heating and cooling in a single high-performance unit. Designed for whole-home comfort, this DC inverter system achieves up to 18 SEER2 efficiency, providing faster temperature response, quieter operation, and superior seasonal performance compared to standard single-stage equipment.

Powered by MRCOOL’s Universal inverter technology, the MDPH18060D automatically modulates output to match real-time demand. This reduces energy waste, cuts electric bills, and eliminates the loud start-stop cycling found in conventional HVAC systems. The packaged design simplifies installation by combining the condenser, evaporator, and compressor in one outdoor cabinet without separate indoor coils or air handlers.

This model uses R-32 refrigerant, a next-generation formula with significantly lower GWP (global warming potential) compared to R-410A. Combined with inverter control, high airflow capacity, and efficient defrost operation, the MDPH18060D provides reliable comfort in both summer heat and winter cold without the complexity of split systems.

Ideal for retrofit replacements, new construction, rooftop installs, and property upgrades, the MDPH18060D offers premium performance with lower operating costs and long-term reliability. Ships fast from MRCOOL DIRECT with full warranty support.

 Compatible with standard ducted installations and rooftop packaged HVAC configurations. No external air handler required. Designed for full-home or light commercial applications requiring 5-Ton (60k BTU) capacity.

Key Highlights

• True 5-ton capacity (~60,000 BTU) to serve larger homes or spaces needing substantial conditioning.  
• High efficiency: Rated at 18 SEER2 (cooling), making it a smart choice for lowering energy usage.  
• Advanced DC inverter compressor and DC motor fan deliver variable-speed operation — smoother temperature control, quieter performance, fewer start-stop cycles.  
• Designed for extreme climates: Heats reliably down to –22 °F (–30 °C) and cools up to 125 °F (52 °C).  
• Uses modern refrigerant R-32 for lower environmental impact while maintaining power.  
• Multi-position installation flexibility: suitable for rooftops, standard returns or horizontal/vertical setups.  
• Backed by strong warranty: 10-year parts & labor (check registration requirements).  

Why It’s a Great Fit

If you’re outfitting a mid- to large-sized home, warehouse space or any ducted system requiring robust capacity, this MRCOOL unit gives you modern efficiency + broad climate-tolerance. Instead of a conventional fixed-speed system that blasts and idles, the inverter design adjusts dynamically — less wear, less noise, more comfort.

Ideal Applications

• Homes in regions with extreme winters and hot summers (think–22 °F to 125 °F range)
• Systems replacing older fixed-speed, less efficient packaged units
• Applications where a single outdoor unit simplifies installation & footprint
• Environments where quiet operation matters (variable-speed = less “bang-on” start)

• Voltage: 208/230 V, Single Phase, 60 Hz.  
• Uses R-32 refrigerant.  
• Compact packaged design (outdoor unit in one cabinet) reduces need for separate indoor unit.
• Compatibility: multi-position air return and airflow options (downflow/horizontal) for flexibility.  
• Corrosion-resistant components (Gold Fin® condenser, etc.).  

Customer Benefits

• Lower utility bills through higher efficiency and smarter operation.
• More consistent indoor comfort without large temperature swings.
• Fewer service interruptions and longer lifespan thanks to reduced mechanical stress.
• Easy upgrade path from older systems — modern refrigerant, future-friendly.
• One-unit solution simplifies installation logistics for contractors and end users alike.

Important Considerations

• Ensure proper sizing: This is a full 5-ton unit — over-sizing can lead to short-cycling and poor dehumidification.
• While the unit supports heavy duty performance in extremes, correct ducting, airflow, and return/return setups remain crucial for best results.
• Verify that your installation meets the required electrical circuit, breaker size, and minimum/maximum ambient specs as per the full spec sheet.
• Check warranty conditions (registration, professional installation requirements) to ensure the 10-year parts & labor coverage is intact.
