Mermaid M24 – Cool Only FMS A/C Unit 24,000 BTU’s 220V
The Mermaid M24 specifies 24,000 BTU cool-only FMS operation from 220V power for dedicated cooling in larger vessel spaces.
- 24,000 BTU output addresses larger interiors.
- 220V supply suits compatible vessel systems.
- Cool-only operation excludes heating functions.
- FMS designation identifies the configuration.
- Dedicated cooling serves marine cabins.
For boats over 40 feet that don’t need onboard heating, the Mermaid M24 Cool Only strips out the reverse cycle function entirely — same 24,000 BTU cooling capacity, same large-vessel build, just without the added complexity of a reversing valve.
Why Choose the Mermaid M24 Cool Only
Skipping reverse cycle heating draws slightly less current than the equivalent reverse cycle unit — 10.4A versus 11.4A — since there’s no reversing valve to power. For boats cruising exclusively in warm climates with no real heating need, that’s a reasonable trade-off for one less system that can eventually need service.
Like the reverse cycle version, this unit is only available in 220V — there’s no 110V or 230V configuration of the M24. Confirm your boat’s electrical system supports 220V before ordering, since there’s no alternate voltage path on this model.
What to Know Before Installing
- Pump is not included and must be sourced separately
- The 8″ duct collar requires at least three 6″ vents, with splitters available to divide it from Mermaid
- Air discharge is limited to right or top configurations — no left discharge option
- Since this unit has no heating function, confirm it matches your climate needs before ordering
