Description

Not every boat runs 230V, and the 220V version of the Mermaid M16 Cool and Reverse Cycle brings the same 16,500 BTU cooling and heating platform to vessels wired to that slightly different voltage standard — same construction, same capacity, same installation requirements as its 230V counterpart.

Key Features of the Mermaid M16 (220V, Reverse Cycle)

Reverse cycle heating handles both cooling and heating from a single unit
304-18 gauge stainless steel construction, a heavier-duty spec than Mermaid’s compact M6/M9 models
Soft start and variable speed blower reduce startup strain and improve comfort precision
Mechanical freeze protection built into the redesigned control system
Available in right, left, or top air discharge configurations

Mermaid M16 Technical Specifications (220V, Reverse Cycle)

Running Amperage: 13.5 A
Cooling Capacity (Volume): 1,400 cubic feet
Recommended Boat Size: up to 40′ cruiser or 45′ sailboat
Unit Dimensions (L x W x H): 19.75″ x 13.5″ x 13.75″
Ducting: minimum three discharges recommended — one 8″x6″ grill within 6 feet of the unit, plus two 4″ round supply vents
Warranty: 5 years against material defects and workmanship

Why Choose the Mermaid M16 (220V)

Electrically, this performs identically to the 230V version at the same 13.5A running amperage — the voltage input is the real distinction, relevant mainly for boats built to or imported from markets using the 220V standard rather than the more common US 230V.

Confirm your vessel is genuinely wired for 220V rather than 230V before ordering, since the two aren’t always interchangeable depending on regional electrical conventions and what’s already installed onboard.

What to Know Before Installing

Plan for three discharge points: one 8″x6″ grill within 6 feet of the unit, plus two 4″ round vents
Pump is not included and must be sourced separately
Verify your vessel’s actual voltage standard (220V vs 230V) before ordering
All three air discharge positions are available on this model
