Daikin | Reverse Cycle Split System 7.1kW Cora Series | R32 Inverter
The Daikin FTXV71WVMA-KIT is a 7.1kW reverse cycle split system air conditioner from the Cora series, rated for 7.1kW cooling and 8.0kW heating on R32 refrigerant. The FTXV71WVMA-KIT pairs the FTXV71WVMA indoor head with the RXV71WVMA outdoor unit, running on a single-phase 220 to 240V supply. It carries Sensitive Choice approval from the National Asthma Council Australia.
Sizing a split system to a large open-plan living area is where a 7.1kW head earns its place, because undersized units struggle to hold temperature across combined zones. The FTXV71WVMA-KIT delivers 7.1kW cooling and 8.0kW heating, covering main living zones, large lounges, and open kitchen-dining spaces that smaller heads cannot manage. R32 refrigerant operates at a considerably lower global warming potential than the older R410A units it replaces on renovations and new installations.
Installers specify Daikin on domestic fit-offs for the brand recognition that closes a quote and the 5-year parts and labour warranty that reduces callbacks after handover. The Cora series operates at 30 dBA on its low fan setting, so bedrooms and living areas remain comfortable without the fan-noise complaints that follow cheaper units. A 30-metre maximum pipe run provides installation flexibility for outdoor unit placement across constrained or awkward sites.
Features
- Rated capacity — the FTXV71WVMA-KIT delivers 7.1kW cooling and 8.0kW heating, with a capacity range of 2.0 to 8.9kW cooling and 2.0 to 10.8kW heating.
- R32 refrigerant — around 66 percent lower global warming potential than R410A, reducing environmental risk on new installs and replacements.
- Reverse cycle operation — heats and cools from a single unit, covering both summer and winter from one wall head.
- Inverter powerful operation — a cooling or heating boost runs for 20 minutes, even when the unit already operates at high capacity.
- Coanda airflow — discharge louvres stream air along the ceiling for rapid cooling and even temperature across the room.
- 2-Area Intelligent Eye — occupancy sensing helps prevent cold draughts and enables energy-saving operation when the room is empty.
- Air purification filter — an enzyme blue deodorising filter traps microscopic particles, breaks down odours, and deactivates bacteria.
- Precision temperature control — room temperature sets in 0.5 degree increments for closer comfort control year round.
- Low sound level — the Cora indoor head runs down to 30 dBA on its quiet fan setting, suitable for bedrooms.
- Sensitive Choice approved — the FTXV71WVMA-KIT carries the National Asthma Council Australia butterfly symbol for air quality.
- Single-phase supply — runs on 1 phase, 220 to 240V, 50Hz, standard for domestic homes, with a 30-metre maximum pipe run.
- Professional install only — refrigerant charging and connection must be done by a licensed air conditioning installer, not a general handyperson.
Where to use
- Large open-plan living — the FTXV71WVMA-KIT is sized for main living zones where lounge, kitchen, and dining share one large space.
- Big lounge and family rooms — 7.1kW cooling holds temperature across high-ceiling and north-facing rooms that smaller heads struggle with.
- Combined kitchen-dining zones — even airflow from the Coanda louvres suits long rooms where a single head must cover the full length.
- Renovations and new builds — the FTXV71WVMA-KIT is a common spec on domestic reno and new-build fit-offs needing a larger-capacity head.
- Rental and holiday properties — the Daikin name and 5-year warranty support a low-maintenance install for landlords and managers.
- Replacement of ageing units — a straight swap for a tired R410A wall unit, moving the install onto lower-GWP R32 refrigerant.
The FTXV71WVMA-KIT is not suited to small bedrooms or studies, where 7.1kW output oversizes the space and short-cycles. Installation and refrigerant handling must be carried out by a licensed air conditioning installer, not a general handyperson. The outdoor unit needs adequate clearance and a stable mounting base.
