Top 3 High Wall Multizone Ductless Mini Split Systems

At D-Air Conditioning Co. we have installed thousands of ductless mini splits for our happy customers in California. After installing so many units and having worked with all the top brands on the market, we have selected the top 3 high wall multizone ductless mini split systems.

Our selection criteria are based on several factors including: 1) reliability, 2) features, 3) aesthetics, and 4) customer feedback.

#1 Mitsubishi MSZ-FS

It is no surprise that the Mitsubishi MSZ-FS takes the top spot on our list. This stylish, reliable mini split packs a big punch in terms of features. The system is super efficient with up to 30 SEER of performance. It has the best in class i-see sensor which can detect your location in the room and deliver targeted heating and cooling. It has an amazing air filtration system using a nano platinum filter and an anti-allergy enzyme filter. Overall this is the best performing system in terms of specs and our customers love Mitsubishi.

This system is a luxury product. The Mitsubishi MSZ-FS is the Rolls Royce in terms of performance and price. If you are planning on using your system for the long term, this can be a wise investment. If you are looking to rent out your place, there are other more affordable options with fewer bells and whistles.

#2 Daikin Emura

The Daikin Emura is a sleek stylish design which is considered one of the best looking high wall mini splits on the market. The innovative system opens by lifting the front panel up is unique in its design. Similar to the Mitsubishi system, this unit has an intelligent eye sensor which detects heat and cool signatures in your room and can deliver precise comfort wherever you are. The Daikin Emura has an efficiency of 18 SEER and has a Titanium Apatite Photocatalytic Air Purifying Filter.

Daikin is the #1 manufacturer of air conditioners in the world. In the air conditioning space, they are well regarded for their high performance, great reliability, and long lasting durability. They are considered the Toyota of this market and you really can't go wrong with choosing this product.

#3 Fujitsu Halcyon™ ASU

The Fujitsu ASU is a no frills, reliable HVAC system that gets the job done. These systems have fewer bells and whistles than the Mitsubishi MSZ-FS or the Daikin Emura but make up for it in sheer simplicity and reliability. As one of the leading manufacturer of computer components and medical devices, Fujitsu has turned their expertise to developing a multizone system that is both functional and distinct in its looks. The angled sides make it a sleek modern aesthetic.

Being a much simpler design than Mitsubishi or Daikin, you will also find that the Fujitsu ASU is less expensive than the two former heavy weights. If you are looking for a reasonably priced system that just works and you are only looking for a system that heats and cools, this one can be a good option.

Honorable mention - Daikin CIRRA

One of the most surprising announcements in 2021 came from Daikin. It was a surprise in a good and totally unexpected way. Daikin announced a super simple and super affordable Daikin CIRRA line. This system is much more affordable than the Emura while boasting similar efficiency ratings.

The one quirk about this system is that it is currently only available as a dual zone system where you can use a combination of 7k, 9k, or 12k indoor heads. As a specially designed system, the condenser is much slimmer and more compact that comparable two zone condensers.

We believe that the CIRRA has a lot of potential and is a great product. Although it is only available in 2 zones, we hope that in the future Daikin will release a 3 zone solution as well. The two zone system is still exciting because it is suitable for most ADU or tiny home applications, one of the fastest growing market segments for ductless mini splits.

If you are in California and are looking for a reliable mini split installer, contact our team at D-Air Conditioning. We specialize in ductless mini splits and currently offer 12 of the best brands on the market. We have offices in San Jose California and Orange County. Our team of ductless mini split pros are happy to help you through any project.

Once he said the Mitsubishi mini split is like the rolls Royce and the daikin is the Toyota I understood perfectly

[thegreatujo]

I have a Daikin and I love it. I also had an older Mitsubishi before and that was good too but I prefer the Daikin. I'm not in the US though. There's also a top of the range Daikin called Ururu Sarara here in Europe (not sure if available in the US, but in Australia I understand is knows as Daikin US7) that is way above the top-of-the-line Mitsu both in performance/features and price so I'm not sure if Toyota of the ACs designation is really appropriate ;)

If the the expensive unit is so much more efficient than the others seems like you would recover the higher cost in lower operation cost.

I'm up in the cold northern part of Canada. which one do you think we should be getting for the cold long months as opposed to the hot days because we would use it more of a heat source than an air conditioner

[mememe]

The question is what is more reliable with least issues. Not the one that has most bell and whistles.

If I'm going to hire someone to do it, should I purchase the ac unit and blower separately so that I can choose? Or does the installer have to approve? Electrician first or last?

[sevadahakobyan]

Can I install mini split system in an apartment? Are they soundless?

[tronixfix]

Best system is General and second best is Bosch. After that is LG, Samsung, Carrier, Reem, Trane. And at the end of quality spectrum are chinese noname systems that get names like "homecool" "super general" or "xingbao".

[tronixfix]

0:15 do they come with free plant or why does it look like a jungle in there?

[tronixfix]

Daikin and Mitsubish are crap... they last for 5-10 years before the outside unit fails or rots. Fujitsu is good.

[famousdude]

Fujitsu has shitty tect service and junky equp. a lot of failure leaks and pc board failures

[ChipSmith-rfwv]

Fujitsu is the
I put in a three room ceiling mount mini split it has had to have gas twice per year every year and the ceiling units leak the gas out. And they will do nothing to fix or reimburse. JUST DON’T BUY IT.
