Midea M-Thermon A 8 kW Monobloc Air Source Heat Pump

The Midea M-Thermon A 8 (model MHC-V8W/D2N8-B2E30, code 14082173) is a monobloc air-to-water heat pump from the Arctic range, designed for heating and cooling in homes and commercial spaces with a thermal demand of around 8 kW (A7/W35). It features R-32 refrigerant, wired control, WiFi connectivity, and compatibility with zoning solutions (Airzone, Acuazone) and BMS.

Important: This unit does not autonomously produce domestic hot water (DHW); to have DHW, an external storage tank/indirect tank (not included) with the corresponding hydraulic and control accessories is essential.

Key Features

• Services: heating and cooling. DHW only with external tank.
• 100% water installation: only hydraulic supply/return (no refrigerant handling).
• High temperature supply: water up to 65 °C with +5 °C outdoor; up to 60 °C with −15 °C.
• Connectivity: WiFi (MSmartLife app), compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.
• Smart Grid Ready and cascade operation without special control to modulate power.
• USB Setup: quick parameterization and diagnostics via USB port.
• Zoning and BMS: Native Modbus RTU; BACnet/KNX via gateway.
• CTE 2020 / CYPE: considered a renewable solution and included in the CYPE database.

Required Components for DHW (not included)

• DHW storage/indirect tank with coil sized to demand.
• Tank probe and 3-way valve for heating–DHW switching.
• Safety elements: safety valve, non-return valve, air vents, sanitary expansion vessel if required.
• Thermostatic mixing valve to limit consumption temperature.
• Secondary circulator if required by the system hydraulics.

Recommended Applications

Single-family homes and well-insulated apartments with underfloor heating, fan coils, or low-temperature radiators. The 100% water monobloc design reduces paperwork and speeds up commissioning thanks to USB setup.

Installation and Maintenance

• Hydraulic supply/return connections; no refrigerant handling required.
• Maintain service distances, level base, and anti-vibration elements.
• Size inertia and balancing according to flow/minimum volume.
• Check wiring sections and protections according to maximum current.
