Daikin Perfera 7.1kW (24,000 BTU) Wall Mounted Air Conditioning System

The Daikin Perfera 7.1kW (FTXM71A / RXM71A) is a premium wall mounted split system designed for large residential rooms and light commercial spaces. Combining 7.1kW cooling and 8.0kW heating output with A+ seasonal efficiency, built-in Wi-Fi control and Daikin's Flash Streamer air purification technology, the Perfera delivers a level of comfort and air quality that goes well beyond a standard air conditioning system.

Supplied as a complete package — indoor unit, outdoor condensing unit and remote controller — this system is ready for installation by an F-Gas certified installation company.

Key Features

• 7.1kW nominal cooling capacity / 8.0kW nominal heating capacity
• 24,000 BTU cooling class
• A+ cooling energy label / A+ heating energy label
• Built-in Wi-Fi adaptor for remote control using the Daikin Onecta app
• Flash Streamer technology is designed to help reduce airborne allergens, odours and other contaminants as air passes through the indoor unit
• Two-area intelligent eye sensor for comfort and energy optimisation
• Heat Boost function for rapid warm-up in heating mode
• R32 refrigerant with inverter-driven compressor
• Operating range: cooling to -10°C / heating to -21°C outdoor

Benefits

• Efficient heating and cooling year-round — the inverter-driven compressor adjusts output continuously, reducing energy consumption compared to fixed-speed systems.
• Improved air quality — Flash Streamer technology is designed to help reduce airborne allergens, odours and other contaminants as air passes through the indoor unit.
• Remote control from anywhere — the built-in Wi-Fi adaptor allows full control via the Daikin Onecta app, including scheduling and energy monitoring.
• Cold climate heating — effective heating down to -21°C outdoor ambient, making it a viable primary heat source in UK conditions.
• High capacity in a wall mounted format — 7.1kW output covers large open-plan spaces without requiring a cassette or ducted system.

Suitable Applications

• Large open-plan living spaces (65–75 m²)
• Large commercial offices and meeting rooms
• Retail units and showrooms
• Conservatories and garden rooms
• Single-phase commercial installations requiring high output

Yes. The FTXM71A includes a built-in Wi-Fi adaptor. Control is via the Daikin Onecta app, available for iOS and Android.

What refrigerant does this system use?
R32. Handling requires F-Gas certification.

What pipe sizes does this system require?
1/4" (6.4 mm) liquid line and 5/8" (15.9 mm) gas line.

What is the maximum pipe run length?
30 metres, with a maximum vertical rise of 20 metres.

Is a local isolator required?
Yes. Required by Part P of the Building Regulations.

Professional Installation Required

This air conditioning system must be installed and commissioned by an appropriately F-Gas certified installation company.
