36000 BTU Mini Split

A 36,000 BTU multi-zone mini split can cool spaces ranging from 1,600 to 2,050 sq. ft., depending on the configuration of indoor units. This makes it ideal for large homes, open-concept areas, or multi-room setups where individual temperature control is needed for different zones.

For 2-zones:

• A 12K BTU + 24K BTU combination can cool up to 2,050 sq. ft.
• An 18K BTU + 18K BTU combination can cool up to 2,000 sq. ft.

For 3-zones:

• A 9K BTU + 9K BTU + 18K BTU setup can cool up to 1,800 sq. ft.
• Three 12K BTU units (12K BTU + 12K BTU + 12K BTU) can cool up to 1,650 sq. ft.

For 4-zones:

• Four 9K BTU units (9K BTU + 9K BTU + 9K BTU + 9K BTU) can cool up to 1,600 sq. ft.

A 36,000 BTU mini split in Della's Versa (TL) series consumes 2,600 watts (2.6 kW) for cooling and 2,890 watts (2.89 kW) for heating.

To estimate annual energy costs, assuming the 36k BTU mini split AC unit runs an average of 8 hours per day for 6-months cooling and 6-months heating, and an average electricity rate of $0.13 per kWh:

Cooling Cost:

• Daily consumption: 2.6 kW × 8 hours = 20.8 kWh
• Monthly consumption: 20.8 kWh/day × 30 days = 624 kWh/month
• Cost for 6 months: 624 kWh/month × 6 months × 0.13 USD/kWh = 486.72 USD

Heating Cost:

• Daily consumption: 2.89 kW × 8 hours = 23.12 kWh
• Monthly consumption: 23.12 kWh/day × 30 days = 693.6 kWh/month
• Cost for 6 months: 693.6 kWh/month × 6 months × 0.13 USD/kWh = 540.40 USD

Total Annual Cost: 486.72 + 540.40 = 1,027.12 USD/year
