The MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC PEAD-M71JAADR1.TH / PUZ-ZM71VHA2-A is a low-profile reverse cycle ducted air conditioning system designed for homes, apartments, and offices where ceiling space is limited. Its slim indoor unit, flexible static pressure settings, and built-in drain pump make it ideal for shallow roof cavities, bulkheads, and homes with restricted ceiling access.
With 7.1kW cooling and 8.0kW heating capacity, this model is ideal for medium-sized homes, open-plan living areas, offices, and spaces around 35–55m² depending on insulation and layout. It can modulate from approximately 3.3kW to 8.1kW in cooling mode and from 3.5kW to 10.2kW in heating mode, helping maintain stable temperatures while reducing running costs.
Key Features & Benefits
Low Profile Indoor Unit
The PEAD series features a slim indoor unit height of just 250mm, making installation possible in homes with low ceilings and minimal roof cavity space. The indoor unit measures approximately 250mm high, 1100mm wide, and 732mm deep.
Flexible Static Pressure Control
The system supports five-stage external static pressure settings of 35Pa, 50Pa, 70Pa, 100Pa, and 125Pa. This allows installers to tailor airflow performance to suit different duct lengths, room layouts, and ceiling configurations.
Single-Phase Power Supply
This model operates on standard 230V single-phase power, making it suitable for most residential homes without requiring a 3-phase electrical upgrade. Rated running current is approximately 10.3 amps in cooling mode and 8.8 amps in heating mode, with a recommended 25-amp breaker.
Energy Efficient Inverter Technology
The system uses Mitsubishi Electric inverter technology to automatically adjust compressor speed based on room conditions, helping maintain more consistent temperatures and lower running costs. It delivers an AEER of approximately 3.63, EER of approximately 3.83, ACOP of approximately 3.93, and COP of approximately 4.14.
Strong Airflow Performance
Airflow ranges from approximately 292 litres per second on low speed to 417 litres per second on high speed, helping provide even air distribution throughout multiple rooms and open-plan areas. Three fan speeds provide flexibility for different room sizes and comfort requirements.
Quiet Operation
Indoor sound pressure levels range from approximately 30dBA on low speed to 39dBA on high speed, helping maintain quieter day-to-day performance. Outdoor sound pressure levels are approximately 47dBA in cooling mode and 51dBA in heating mode.
Built-In Drain Pump
The PEAD series includes a built-in condensate pump as standard. The drain pump can lift water up to 700mm from the lower surface of the indoor unit, helping simplify drainage in tighter ceiling spaces.
Optional Wi-Fi and Zone Control Compatibility
Optional Wi-Fi control allows the system to be managed remotely from a smartphone or tablet. The PEAD series is also compatible with optional zone controllers that can manage up to eight zones for greater comfort and energy savings.
R32 Refrigerant
The system uses modern R32 refrigerant for improved efficiency and lower environmental impact compared to older refrigerants. It comes pre-charged for pipe runs up to 30 metres and supports maximum piping lengths up to 50 metres with a maximum height difference of 30 metres.
