How to read the code M1SEFT-18HRN8F-Q8
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)
- N = fixed-speed compressor
The right space for 2.25 HP
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.
What makes the difference in operation
This model is cool & heat, so in winter it reverses the cycle and moves heat from outside in rather than generating it like a heater. That is why it draws far less power for the same feeling of warmth.
Fixed-speed compressor: it runs at full capacity and stops when the set temperature is reached. It costs less than the inverter at the same capacity and is simpler to service, but consumption is higher if the unit runs many hours a day.
The Midea Xtreme series
Midea Xtreme: fixed-speed on R32 and built to carry the high load of the Egyptian summer. The gap to Mission Pro is small in price and large if the room stores daytime heat. 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 Xtreme category · all Midea prices.
When to choose it
You would choose this model when you want winter heating from the same unit without a separate heater. And the space is 16 to 21 m² with an external wall close by for the pipe route. If either of those does not apply to you, look at the alternatives in the table below before paying.
Why pay more? M1SEFT-18HRN8F-Q8 compared
Instead of comparing across websites, here are all the close alternatives we stock in one table at today's prices: the other mode, the other compressor, the other brand, and the higher and lower capacities in the same series.

The cheapest Midea 2.25 HP wall-mounted split in our range is M1SEFT-18CRN8F-Q8 at EGP 30,357; this model costs EGP 3,032 more for heating.
Price against capacity
A simple measure that compares prices fairly: divide the unit price by its rated capacity. M1SEFT-18HRN8F-Q8 costs EGP 33,389 for 18,000 BTU, which means 1,855 EGP per 1,000 BTU.
| This model | EGP 1,855 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.
How we carry out the installation
With a wall split, the position of both units affects cooling more than anything else: the indoor unit facing the length of the room rather than a closed corner, the outdoor unit in open air away from sun reflected off a facing wall, and the shortest practical pipe run between them.
We work to approved specifications and fixed steps, not improvisation: South African or Swedish copper in the right sizes, full Armaflex insulation on both lines, a dry-nitrogen pressure test then a micron vacuum before charging, a correct drain slope that prevents dripping, and photo documentation of every stage on our system.

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.

Common questions about the Midea Xtreme 2.25 HP Cool & Heat Split AC
How big a room does the Midea Xtreme 2.25 HP Cool & Heat 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 Xtreme 2.25 HP Cool & Heat Split AC today?
EGP 33,389 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.
This model uses R32 — what does that mean?
R32 is the newer generation: higher efficiency, a smaller charge and lower environmental impact, and it needs a technician trained for it because it is mildly flammable. The full comparison is in R32 versus R410A.
Does this unit need a special power supply?
No. It runs on single-phase / 220 V, the normal apartment supply, with no meter change. The run from the meter to the unit and any electrical work are priced separately.
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.
