Mini Split Air Conditioner Heat Pumps: 12,000 BTU vs 18,000 BTU From $298 to $749

Compare four ductless air conditioner heat pump options-an 18,000 BTU 220V model and three 12,000 BTU units-to choose the right coverage, voltage, and controls.

Last updated Aug 17, 2026

Mini split air conditioner heat pumps solve a common problem: you want heating and cooling without ductwork, but you have to match the unit to your room size, voltage, and price. These four ductless systems all do both jobs. One is an 18,000 BTU 220V model for a larger space, and three are 12,000 BTU systems for rooms up to roughly 700-750 sq ft.

Quick take

The largest system here is the Confortotal 18,000 BTU unit, which covers an 851-900 sq ft area. The other three are 12,000 BTU heat pumps, and they are grouped around smaller rooms. If your space is near 900 sq ft, the 18,000 BTU option is the only one built for that range. If you need less capacity, the three 12,000 BTU units are separated mainly by power supply, smart control, and listed price.

Decision matrix

  • Largest room: Choose the Confortotal 18,000 BTU 220V model if your space is in the top coverage range.
  • Lowest price: The Senville 12,000 BTU 110V unit enters at the lowest price point.
  • 115V middle pick: The Garvee 12,000 BTU is the 115V mid-size option.
  • Smart control: The WiFi-Enabled 12,000 BTU system includes WiFi, though the Senville also lists WiFi compatibility.

Product notes

Confortotal 18,000 BTU 220V Mini Split

18,000 BTU Ductless Air Conditioner Heat Pump Mini Split 220V 1.5 Ton W/KIT,WiFi

If your room falls in the 851-900 sq ft range, this 18,000 BTU system is the highest-capacity option here. The package includes the indoor air handler, an outdoor unit with a Toshiba compressor, and a complete installation kit with line set and wire. It also includes WiFi and a remote control in Fahrenheit. At USD 749.00, it is the most expensive of the four, and its power supply differs from the 110V/115V models. Choose it when square footage matters more than the lower prices of the smaller units.

Garvee 12,000 BTU 115V Mini Split

12000 BTU 19 SEER2 Mini Split Ductless Air Conditioner Heat Pump 115V 750 Sq Ft

The Garvee is a 115V heat pump priced at USD 365.14 and covers 701-750 sq ft. It has six operating modes, five fan speeds, and a remote control. It also includes sleep mode, timer, and ECO mode. If you are choosing among the smaller group, this one sits between the Senville and the WiFi-enabled unit in price. It does not offer the 18,000 BTU capacity of the Confortotal, so it is not the right pick for a much larger room. For a space in the 701-750 sq ft range, it gives you a direct 115V option.

Senville 12,000 BTU 110V Mini Split

12000 BTU Ductless Mini Split Air Conditioner and Heat Pump 21 SEER 110V

The Senville is the lowest-priced system in this group at USD 298.00, and it is a 110V heat pump. It is a single-zone system for spaces up to about 700 sq ft, with variable-speed airflow, 1000-1999 CFM, remote control, and Wi-Fi that works with Amazon Alexa. That makes it a fit for bedrooms and home offices. The trade-off is coverage: if you need more area than this unit offers, the Garvee or Confortotal covers more. The Senville is the better starting point for a smaller room at the lowest price.

WiFi-Enabled 12,000 BTU Mini Split

12000 BTU Mini Split Air Conditioner Heat Pump System WiFi Enabled

This system is priced at USD 380.99 and covers spaces up to 750 sq ft, with WiFi-enabled control and a 17 SEER2 rating. It offers the same coverage class as the Garvee but at a higher price. The main reason to pick it is if you want smart control in a 12,000 BTU unit and do not need the 18,000 BTU capacity of the Confortotal. The trade-off is the price: it costs more than the Senville and Garvee while staying within the same smaller-room coverage range. If smart control is the priority, the Senville also includes WiFi and Alexa compatibility at a lower price.

Bottom line

For a large room in the top coverage range, the Confortotal 18,000 BTU unit is the clear pick. For a smaller room at the lowest price, the Senville 110V model is the one to start with. If you want a 115V system for a mid-size room, the Garvee is the middle option. The WiFi-Enabled 12,000 BTU unit is worth a look when smart control is your priority, though the Senville also offers WiFi at a lower price.
