Daikin Launches NEXIO Max Inverter-Driven Rooftop Heat Pump for Light Commercial Applications

With capacities up to 10 tons, the NEXIO Max provides flexible heating and cooling solutions, supporting building electrification, humidity control, and operational flexibility in light commercial settings.

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.
