Model code M1SEFT-18HRDN8F-Q8 explained
The code is not random; reading it lets you make sure you are comparing the same model at any seller (per the brand's Egyptian models):
- M1S = the Midea Egypt wall-split prefix
- HR = heat & cool
- 18 = cooling capacity in thousands of BTU (18,000 BTU/hr ≈ 2.25 HP)
- DN = DC inverter compressor
How much space does 2.25 HP cover?
Using our approved heat-load method (length × width × height × a factor of 300 / 350 / 400 BTU/m³ depending on exposure), this capacity covers 16 to 21 m² at a 2.8 m ceiling. Used in small halls, living rooms, large bedrooms and offices. The classic mistake at this size is calculating on the room's dimensions when it actually opens onto another space. Large glazing, a kitchen and the number of occupants raise the load, so confirm with a real calculation: how engineers pick the right AC capacity · what HP and BTU mean · the AC calculator.
Operating mode and compressor
Besides cooling, this model heats in winter (heat pump): one unit for both seasons instead of buying a separate heater, and at much lower consumption than a heater.
With an inverter compressor the unit does not keep cutting out and restarting; it holds a low speed that keeps the temperature stable. That narrows the gap between the temperature you set and the one you feel, and keeps it quieter at night.
The Midea AI Eco Master series
Midea's core wall-split inverter, on R32 with AI Eco Master technology. The natural choice for a bedroom that runs all night or an office that runs all day. Our range has 6 models in this series from 1.5 to 3 HP, and this model sits mid-range in the series. All models are in the AI Eco Master category · all Midea prices.
Who is this model for?
This model makes sense if the unit will run long hours every day (a bedroom all night or an office all day), and the space is 16 to 21 m² with an external wall close by for the pipe route. If your situation is different, the comparison table below shows the closest alternative with its exact price difference.

Cost per 1,000 BTU
A simple measure that compares prices fairly: divide the unit price by its rated capacity. M1SEFT-18HRDN8F-Q8 costs EGP 37,764 for 18,000 BTU, which means 2,098 EGP per 1,000 BTU.
| This model | EGP 2,098 per 1,000 BTU |
| Average across our wall-mounted split range (44 models) | EGP 1,971 |
| Cheapest model of the same type | EGP 1,570 |
| Most expensive model of the same type | EGP 2,652 |
That figure sits close to the average for its type with us (only 6% apart), so the price is consistent with the rest of the range rather than an outlier either way.
Installation and execution with El Shora
Installing a wall split takes one day if the space is ready. What matters: nothing blocking the indoor unit's airflow, an outdoor unit in a ventilated rather than boxed-in position, and a drain running outwards with slope and no back-fall.
What decides a unit's life is not the brand alone, it is the installation: copper at the right diameter with no extra joints, full insulation on both lines, a dry-nitrogen test and a micron vacuum before the refrigerant is released, and a correct drain slope. Every step is photographed and logged on our system under the project name. Details in AC installation · AC maintenance.
The unit price includes delivery only within our service areas; installation, commissioning, warranty activation and after-sales service are a separate paid service, written clearly in the quotation together with any extra pipe length, preparation, chasing or scaffolding the site needs.

FAQ about the Midea AI Eco Master 2.25 HP Cool & Heat Inverter Split AC
How big a room does the Midea AI Eco Master 2.25 HP Cool & Heat Inverter Split AC cover?
This capacity (2.25 HP ≈ 18,000 BTU) covers 16 to 21 m² at a 2.8 m ceiling, based on 300 to 400 BTU per cubic metre. On a top floor or a sunny façade treat it as the minimum, and you can check with the AC calculator.
What is the price of the Midea AI Eco Master 2.25 HP Cool & Heat Inverter Split AC today?
EGP 37,764 for the unit including delivery only within our service areas (updated 12 September 2026). Installation, commissioning, warranty activation and after-sales are a separate paid service, written clearly in the quotation before any work.
Can I buy the unit and have someone else install it?
Of course; the price covers the unit and delivery only. Keep in mind that installation quality is what actually decides the compressor's life: the nitrogen pressure test, micron vacuum and full insulation are not cosmetic details, and warranty activation happens at commissioning.
Where do you deliver and how fast?
Delivery is included within our service areas in Cairo, Giza, the new cities and the coast. Because the warehouse is in 6th of October, deliveries to October, Zayed and nearby areas are scheduled faster, and in every case we confirm the appointment before dispatch.
Is the unit genuine and invoiced?
Yes. El Shora is an authorized Carrier and Midea distributor; the unit is handed over with a registered serial number, a warranty certificate and an official invoice in your name. That is what keeps the warranty valid if you need it, and it is the difference from buying on the parallel market.
Does it really heat in winter?
Yes, this is a cool & heat (heat pump) model that heats from the same unit at far lower consumption than an electric heater. Heating efficiency drops on very cold nights but is enough for an Egyptian winter.
Where we deliver and install
Supply, installation and maintenance run from our base in 6th of October, with appointments confirmed before the visit and photo documentation. Among the areas we serve: AC in Sheikh Zayed · AC in Mohandessin & Dokki · AC in Fifth Settlement · AC in Obour · all service areas.
