Daikin Launches NEXIO Max Inverter-Driven Rooftop Heat Pump for Light Commercial Applications
The Daikin NEXIO Max package heat pump is an inverter-driven rooftop solution engineered to support building electrification, deliver energy-efficiency performance, and provide comfort in light commercial applications. Utilizing low-GWP R-32 refrigerant and Daikin variable-speed technology, NEXIO Max delivers high-performance heating and cooling across a broad range of operating conditions.
NEXIO Max is designed to help simplify replacement projects by aligning with common rooftop unit footprints without requiring a curb adapter, helping maintain existing curb and duct compatibility while managing installation time and cost.
Factory-wired and labeled connections help streamline startup and commissioning, while an open-access cabinet design provides convenient access to key components for service and maintenance. Integrated Power Protection with phase-monitoring capabilities helps safeguard critical components, supporting reliable operation and reducing unplanned downtime.
Featuring native BACnet™ integration, Daikin NEXIO Max is designed to support Building Automation System, enabling connectivity with building management systems for real-time monitoring and control. The units are configured to operate with Daikin controls, and are compatible with a range of third-party thermostats.
Remote monitoring, diagnostics and control capabilities are available through the Daikin HERO platform.
Smooth, low-noise operation is enabled by inverter-driven compressors, designed to manage cycling and support consistent sound levels. Direct-drive fan technology does not require belts, supporting maintenance considerations while delivering low-sound operation and dependable performance over time.
Configurable options, including Multi-Zone VAV and Hot Gas Reheat, enable NEXIO Max to support multiple commercial applications, while delivering comfort, humidity management, and operational flexibility. It is available in 7.5-, 8.5- and 10-ton capacities, delivering up to 114,000 Btu/h of cooling performance.
