Daikin Alira X 7.1kW Split System

Model FTXM71AVMA / RXM71AVMA

The 7.1kW Daikin Alira X Split System is sized for open-plan living and dining areas. As a guide, it cools a room of up to about 51 to 59 m². That is from Mitsubishi Heavy Industries' sizing chart for an insulated room: the larger figure if it faces north, the smaller if it faces east. Western sun, poor insulation and high ceilings bring it down. It is the largest capacity in the Daikin Alira X Split System range. For a smaller, well-insulated room the 6kW will do the job for less power draw.

Part of the Daikin Alira X Split System range, Daikin's split system line, in 7 sizes. Running costs below use the Sydney median rate; the Eastern Suburbs and Western Sydney pages cost systems on their own network tariffs. Check the size against your rooms, compare it with other 7.1 kW options, see every 7kW split system ranked by running cost, or ask about supply and installation.
