The DAIKIN FBA100B-VF2V is a premium slimline reverse cycle ducted system designed for apartments, townhouses, larger homes, and offices where ceiling space is limited. Its ultra-low profile indoor unit makes it ideal for narrow roof cavities, bulkheads, and underfloor installations while still delivering powerful year-round heating and cooling. With 10.0kW cooling and 12.0kW heating capacity, this model is ideal for medium to large living areas, offices, and spaces around 45–70m² depending on insulation and layout. The system can modulate from 3.5kW to 11.5kW in cooling mode and from 3.5kW to 14.0kW in heating mode, helping maintain stable temperatures while reducing energy use.

Key Features & Benefits

Slimline Low-Profile Indoor Unit

The indoor unit measures only 245mm high, making it one of Daikin’s most compact ducted options for tight roof spaces and restricted ceiling cavities. Indoor dimensions are approximately 245mm high, 1400mm wide, and 800mm deep, while the outdoor unit measures approximately 870mm high, 1100mm wide, and 460mm deep.

Premium Inverter Technology

Daikin’s Premium Slim-Line series uses a DC fan motor, cross-pass heat exchanger, and hermetically sealed swing compressor to provide smoother temperature control, quieter performance, and improved seasonal efficiency.

Improved Energy Efficiency

The system delivers an EER of 3.58 and a COP of 4.11. Residential TCSPF ratings reach up to 5.55 in hot climates, while HSPF ratings reach up to 5.57, helping reduce ongoing running costs.

Strong Airflow Performance

The unit provides airflow of approximately 533 litres per second with multiple indoor fan speeds available for flexible operation. Indoor fan speed settings include high, medium, and low.

Automatic Airflow Adjustment

The fan speed can automatically adjust to suit the duct design for improved airflow distribution and simplified commissioning. The DC fan can also provide static pressure up to 150Pa for greater installation flexibility.

Long Pipe Run Capability

The system supports refrigerant pipe lengths up to 85 metres for the 100–140 class models, giving installers greater flexibility for apartments, townhouses, and larger multi-room homes.

Flexible Return Air Options

The indoor unit offers either rear or bottom suction return air options, allowing greater flexibility depending on the duct design and ceiling space available.

Built-In Condensate Pump

A built-in drain pump with up to 850mm lift capability comes standard, helping simplify drainage installation in tighter ceiling spaces.

Night Quiet Mode

Daikin’s Night Quiet Mode automatically reduces outdoor operating noise during sleeping hours and resumes normal operation in the morning, helping minimise disturbance to occupants and neighbours.

R22 Retrofit Capability

This model supports R22 retrofit applications, allowing existing pipework to often be reused when replacing older systems. This can help reduce installation time and overall project 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 and light commercial installations.

Australian-Made Indoor Unit

The indoor unit is specifically designed and manufactured to Australian standards to better withstand harsh summer conditions and demanding local applications.

Wired Controller Included

The system is commonly supplied with Daikin’s BRC1E63 Nav Ease wired wall controller for simple temperature control, scheduling, and system management.
