The Daikin FDYAN71AV1 / RZA71C2V1 is a compact and efficient reverse cycle ducted system designed for small to medium homes, townhouses, and open-plan living areas. With Daikin’s inverter technology, slim indoor profile, and quiet operation, it provides discreet year-round comfort while remaining hidden within the ceiling space.
With 7.1kW cooling and 7.5kW heating capacity, this model is ideal for homes around 3–4 bedrooms, open-plan lounge and dining areas, and spaces approximately 40–70m² depending on insulation and layout. The inverter compressor can modulate output from 1.8kW up to 8.0kW in cooling mode and from 2.0kW to 9.0kW in heating mode, helping improve efficiency and maintain stable temperatures throughout the home.
Key Features & Benefits
Advanced Inverter Technology
Daikin’s inverter technology continuously adjusts compressor speed to maintain a more stable indoor temperature while reducing power consumption and operating noise compared to conventional fixed-speed systems. The system uses a hermetically sealed swing compressor for efficient and reliable performance.
Compact Indoor Unit Design
The indoor unit has a low-profile height of approximately 300mm, making it ideal for tight roof spaces in modern homes. The indoor unit measures around 300mm high, 1210mm wide, and 900mm deep.
Space-Saving Outdoor Unit
The outdoor unit uses a compact side-discharge design measuring approximately 595mm high, 845mm wide, and 300mm deep, allowing more flexible placement in homes with limited outdoor space.
Night Quiet Mode
Daikin’s Night Quiet Mode reduces outdoor noise levels during sleeping hours and automatically resumes normal operation in the morning, helping minimise disturbance to occupants and neighbours.
Strong Airflow Performance
The unit provides nominal airflow of approximately 425 litres per second, with maximum airflow up to 566 litres per second, helping deliver even conditioned air across multiple rooms and open-plan spaces. Indoor sound levels are approximately 37.3dBA in cooling mode and 40.5dBA in heating mode.
Improved Energy Efficiency
The system delivers an EER of 3.23 and COP of 3.89, helping reduce running costs while maintaining strong heating and cooling performance. Residential TCSPF ratings reach up to 4.43 in hot climates.
Long Pipe Run Capability
The system supports refrigerant pipe lengths up to 50 metres, making it suitable for multi-room homes and more complex ducted installations.
Wide Operating Range
The system can operate in cooling mode from -5°C to 46°C outdoor temperature, making it suitable for year-round Australian conditions.
R22 Retrofit Capability
This model supports R22 retrofit applications, allowing existing pipework to often be reused when replacing older systems, helping reduce installation time and costs.
R32 Refrigerant
The system uses modern R32 refrigerant for improved efficiency and lower environmental impact compared to older refrigerants.
Single-Phase Power Supply
This model operates on standard 220–240V single-phase power, making it suitable for most residential installations without requiring three-phase power.
Wired Controller Included
The system is commonly supplied with Daikin’s BRC1E63 wired wall controller, providing simple scheduling, temperature control, and system management.
