The Daikin NEXIO MAX DVH1203W000001S is the high-static configuration of the 12 ton (114,000 BTU) DV Series inverter packaged heat pump — the largest capacity, highest airflow unit in the initial NEXIO MAX release, now configured for applications where duct system resistance demands more than the standard platform can deliver. Rated for up to 2.0 in. W.C. maximum external static pressure and equipped with a 5.0 HP direct-drive indoor blower at 15.1A FLA, it pushes 3,600 CFM nominal airflow through demanding duct systems while maintaining the same 21.5 IEER / 12.1 EER efficiency and full inverter performance of the standard DVH1203D.
At 12 tons serving large commercial spaces — sprawling retail floors, full-service restaurant groups, multi-wing school buildings, or large open-plan offices — duct systems routinely accumulate static pressure that exceeds the 1.4 in. W.C. limit of standard rooftop units. Long primary trunk runs, branch takeoffs to distant zones, high-efficiency filtration media, pressure-dependent VAV damper systems, and the pressure losses inherent in complex multi-zone air distribution all contribute. The DVH1203W is the specification answer to those conditions: same inverter compressor platform, same R-32 refrigerant circuit, same BACnet-ready controls, same cabinet and curb footprint — with the blower hardware sized for the actual static pressure the duct system presents.
The inverter compressor continuously modulates speed to match real-time building load, avoiding the short-cycling and temperature oscillation of fixed-speed staging across the part-load conditions that dominate commercial operating hours. A subcooling heat exchanger, vapor-injection solenoid, and electronic expansion valves across both indoor and outdoor coils optimize the refrigerant circuit in all operating modes: cooling, heating, defrost, oil return, and hot gas reheat on HGRH-configured models. A dedicated BACnet PCB is physically installed in the indoor control panel as standard for native BAS integration without any field-add hardware.

FAQs
Q: What is the difference between the DVH1203W000001S and the DVH1203D000001S?
A: External static pressure rating and blower motor. The DVH1203W is rated for 2.0 in. W.C. maximum external static versus 1.4 in. W.C. on the DVH1203D, achieved with an upgraded 5.0 HP blower motor at 15.1A FLA versus 3.5 HP / 11.7A on the standard model. The higher blower FLA drives MCA up from 54.0A to 57.8A while max overcurrent protection remains 70A across both 12-ton models. All performance, refrigerant, capacity, and cabinet specs are otherwise identical.
Q: When should I specify the DVH1203W over the DVH1203D?
A: Specify the W model when your duct system's calculated total external static pressure exceeds 1.4 in. W.C. At 12 tons serving large commercial spaces, high-static conditions are particularly common — sprawling trunk duct systems serving multiple zones, older undersized ductwork on retrofit projects, high-MERV filtration banks, VAV systems with pressure-dependent zone dampers, and complex multi-branch layouts with accumulated fitting losses. Always run a full duct static pressure calculation before specifying; the 0.6 in. W.C. of additional headroom the W model provides can be the difference between proper airflow and an underperforming system at commissioning.
Q: What is the IEER efficiency rating?
A: 21.5 IEER / 12.1 EER — identical to the standard-static DVH1203D. The high-static blower upgrade does not affect the unit's cooling or heating efficiency ratings.
Q: What are the electrical requirements?
A: 208/230V, 3-Phase, 60 Hz. Minimum Circuit Ampacity (MCA) is 57.8A and maximum overcurrent protection is 70A. The MCA steps up from 54.0A on the standard DVH1203D due to the higher 5.0 HP blower FLA, while the 70A overcurrent protection rating is shared across both 12-ton models. Power supply conduit knockout is 1.375 in. diameter; low-voltage conduit is 0.5 in. diameter. Verify panel and breaker capacity before substituting the W model on an existing circuit sized for the D model.
Q: How does the DVH1203W compare electrically to the 10-ton high-static DVH1023W?
A: Very close. The DVH1203W draws 57.8A MCA versus 56.5A on the DVH1023W — a difference of just 1.3A reflecting the slightly higher compressor inverter input at 12 tons. Both models share the same 5.0 HP / 15.1A blower configuration, the same 70A max overcurrent protection, and the same 208/230V, 3-Phase electrical supply requirement.
Q: Is BACnet MS/TP standard on the high-static model?
A: Yes. All DV Series NEXIO MAX units include a dedicated BACnet PCB physically installed in the indoor control panel as standard. Native BAS integration requires no field-add communication cards regardless of static pressure or voltage configuration.
Q: Is there a 460V high-static version of the 12-ton available?
A: Yes — the DVH1204W000001S is the 460V, 3-Phase high-static variant with a 10.6A blower FLA at 460V and 30.3A MCA. Contact us at 678-535-7176 to confirm availability.
Q: What does this unit weigh and how does it ship?
A: Operating weight is 1,293 lbs. and ship weight is 1,365 lbs. — identical across all twelve DV Series models regardless of tonnage, voltage, or static pressure configuration. Units ship LTL freight to all 48 contiguous states. Call 678-535-7176 for a freight quote before ordering.
Q: Where can I buy the Daikin NEXIO MAX DVH1203W000001S?

Heat Pump System:
Heats and cools your home using electricity and outdoor air. More energy-efficient, lower operating costs, environmentally friendly, and works well in moderate to warm climates. Qualifies for rebates and tax credits.
Gas System:
Uses natural gas for heating and requires a separate air conditioner for cooling. Better for extreme cold climates where heat pumps are less efficient. Higher fuel costs but may have lower upfront equipment expenses.
Best choice depends on: Your climate (heat pumps excel in Georgia), budget for upfront costs, long-term energy savings goals, and environmental priorities. Heat pumps typically save more money over time through lower utility bills. Contact our team for a personalized recommendation based on your home and location.
The best way to ensure you've chosen the right system is to match it with your home's cooling and heating needs. Consider your home's square footage, climate, insulation, and the number of zones you want to control. You can look at the sizing guide here, and our support team can help you narrow down options based on your specific situation. If you're unsure, we recommend consulting with a professional HVAC technician who can perform a detailed load calculation for your home.
Split System: Features separate indoor and outdoor units ideal for homes with basements or crawlspaces. Offers higher SEER ratings, better efficiency, and more customization for placement.
Packaged System: Contains all components in one outdoor unit, perfect for smaller homes or limited indoor space. Easier to install with lower maintenance needs.
Quick decision: Have indoor space? Choose split for superior efficiency. Limited space? Choose packaged.
HVAC sizing is measured in tons, where one ton equals 12,000 BTUs of cooling capacity. While you can estimate using square footage (roughly 600 square feet per ton for residential homes), the most accurate method is a professionalManual J load calculationthat considers your home's insulation, orientation, windows, climate, and occupancy patterns.
Tonnage => BTU/Hour
1 ton => 12,000 BTU
1.5 ton => 18,000 BTU
2 ton => 24,000 BTU
2.5 ton => 30,000 BTU
3 ton => 36,000 BTU
3.5 ton => 42,000 BTU
4 ton => 48,000 BTU
5 ton => 60,000 BTU
Home Size (Sq. Ft.) => Recommended Tonnage
750–1,000 => 2 tons
1,050–1,400 => 2.5 tons
1,450–1,700 => 3 tons
1,750–1,900 => 3.5 tons
1,950–2,200 => 4 tons
2,250+ => 5 tons
Important: Undersizing leads to inadequate cooling; oversizing wastes energy and money. When in doubt, consult a professional. Reach out to us at sales@acunitsforless.com or via Live Chat.
If you're planning multiple units (for a ductless mini-split system or zoned setup), calculate the cooling needs for each zone or room separately using the same Manual J methodology. Add the tonnage requirements for each area to determine your total system capacity. For example, if your master bedroom is 800 sq. ft. (requiring 1.5 tons) and your living room is 1,200 sq. ft. (requiring 2 tons), you'd want a 3.5-ton system or a multi-zone setup with smaller indoor units. Our team can help you design a custom multi-zone layout based on your home's layout and needs.
Currently due to regulations, we are only selling and shipping Trane Residential units in the state of Georgia.
SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio-it measures how efficiently an air conditioning or heat pump system operates over an entire cooling season.
SEER2 stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio 2-it's the updated, more accurate standard introduced in 2023. SEER2 provides a more realistic assessment of real-world performance by testing at various load levels and temperature conditions.
The key difference is how the systems are tested.
SEER testing used fixed temperature conditions and didn't fully account for the external static pressure in typical duct systems.
SEER2 testing is more comprehensive-it accounts for varying temperatures (65°F to 104°F), includes partial-load efficiency testing to mimic real-world fluctuating demands, and uses proper duct system static pressure to prioritize furnace blower efficiency.
Important to know:SEER2 ratings are typically 4–7% lower than SEER ratings for the same system because the testing is stricter and more realistic. For example, a 16 SEER system might have a SEER2 rating of around 14. Don't compare old SEER numbers directly to new SEER2 ratings-they use different standards.

R-32 is a single-component, low-GWP refrigerant used in modern HVAC systems as an eco-friendly alternative to R-410A. It has a Global Warming Potential of 675-one-third lower than R-410A (GWP 2,088)-and offers zero ozone depletion potential. R-32 delivers approximately 10% better energy efficiency and improved heat transfer, requires 30% less refrigerant charge, and has been safely used in over 160 million units worldwide since 2012. It's classified as A2L (mildly flammable) and represents the next generation of environmentally sustainable cooling technology.
R-454B is the next-generation, environmentally friendly refrigerant with the lowest Global Warming Potential (GWP of 466) compared to R-32 and R-410A. It maintains high efficiency, meets current EPA regulations, and ensures your system remains compliant for years to come. Choosing R-454B means investing in future-proof technology that's better for the environment and your wallet.
Effective January 1, 2025, the EPA enacted a regulation prohibiting manufacturers from producing or importing new HVAC systems using R-410A. This is because R-410A has a very high Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 2,088-meaning it contributes significantly to climate change if released into the atmosphere.

FAQs
Q: What is the difference between the DVH1203W000001S and the DVH1203D000001S?
A: External static pressure rating and blower motor. The DVH1203W is rated for 2.0 in. W.C. maximum external static versus 1.4 in. W.C. on the DVH1203D, achieved with an upgraded 5.0 HP blower motor at 15.1A FLA versus 3.5 HP / 11.7A on the standard model. The higher blower FLA drives MCA up from 54.0A to 57.8A while max overcurrent protection remains 70A across both 12-ton models. All performance, refrigerant, capacity, and cabinet specs are otherwise identical.
Q: When should I specify the DVH1203W over the DVH1203D?
A: Specify the W model when your duct system's calculated total external static pressure exceeds 1.4 in. W.C. At 12 tons serving large commercial spaces, high-static conditions are particularly common — sprawling trunk duct systems serving multiple zones, older undersized ductwork on retrofit projects, high-MERV filtration banks, VAV systems with pressure-dependent zone dampers, and complex multi-branch layouts with accumulated fitting losses. Always run a full duct static pressure calculation before specifying; the 0.6 in. W.C. of additional headroom the W model provides can be the difference between proper airflow and an underperforming system at commissioning.
Q: What is the IEER efficiency rating?
A: 21.5 IEER / 12.1 EER — identical to the standard-static DVH1203D. The high-static blower upgrade does not affect the unit's cooling or heating efficiency ratings.
Q: What are the electrical requirements?
A: 208/230V, 3-Phase, 60 Hz. Minimum Circuit Ampacity (MCA) is 57.8A and maximum overcurrent protection is 70A. The MCA steps up from 54.0A on the standard DVH1203D due to the higher 5.0 HP blower FLA, while the 70A overcurrent protection rating is shared across both 12-ton models. Power supply conduit knockout is 1.375 in. diameter; low-voltage conduit is 0.5 in. diameter. Verify panel and breaker capacity before substituting the W model on an existing circuit sized for the D model.
Q: How does the DVH1203W compare electrically to the 10-ton high-static DVH1023W?
A: Very close. The DVH1203W draws 57.8A MCA versus 56.5A on the DVH1023W — a difference of just 1.3A reflecting the slightly higher compressor inverter input at 12 tons. Both models share the same 5.0 HP / 15.1A blower configuration, the same 70A max overcurrent protection, and the same 208/230V, 3-Phase electrical supply requirement.
Q: Is BACnet MS/TP standard on the high-static model?
A: Yes. All DV Series NEXIO MAX units include a dedicated BACnet PCB physically installed in the indoor control panel as standard. Native BAS integration requires no field-add communication cards regardless of static pressure or voltage configuration.
Q: Is there a 460V high-static version of the 12-ton available?
A: Yes — the DVH1204W000001S is the 460V, 3-Phase high-static variant with a 10.6A blower FLA at 460V and 30.3A MCA. Contact us at 678-535-7176 to confirm availability.
Q: What does this unit weigh and how does it ship?
A: Operating weight is 1,293 lbs. and ship weight is 1,365 lbs. — identical across all twelve DV Series models regardless of tonnage, voltage, or static pressure configuration. Units ship LTL freight to all 48 contiguous states. Call 678-535-7176 for a freight quote before ordering.
Q: Where can I buy the Daikin NEXIO MAX DVH1203W000001S?
