Mini Split 9,000 BTU Gree Livo 20.5 SEER2 115V Heat Pump System LIV09HP115V1R32AO, LIV09HP115V1R32AH
The Gree Livo R32 LIV09HP115V1R32AO condenser paired with the LIV09HP115V1R32AH wall-mount air handler is a single-zone ductless heat pump that runs on ordinary 115-volt single-phase power, so a small room can be conditioned without pulling a new 208-230V circuit. Rated 9,100 BTU/h cooling at 95°F and 10,000 BTU/h heating at 47°F, it earns 20.5 SEER2, 11.9 EER2, and 8.8 HSPF2 on low-GWP R-32 refrigerant. A variable-speed DC inverter compressor lets the system modulate between 2,700 and 11,600 BTU/h in cooling instead of cycling on and off, and a wireless LCD remote is included in the box. This is the Livo size homeowners, landlords, and remodelers reach for when the goal is quiet year-round comfort in a bedroom, home office, or finished attic on the electrical service that is already there.
Is 9,000 BTU the Right Size for Your Room?
Nine thousand BTU is the smallest capacity in the Livo R32 lineup and it is matched to a single room rather than a whole floor. Think in terms of heat gain instead of floor area: a well-insulated interior bedroom sheds very little heat, while a sunroom of the same square footage with glass on two walls behaves like a much larger space. A 9,000 BTU head that is asked to carry too much load runs at full speed constantly and never reaches the efficiency it is rated for, and one that is oversized for a small room short-cycles and leaves humidity behind.
Insulation values, window area and orientation, ceiling height, attic exposure, the number of people in the room, and heat-producing equipment such as computers or a television all move the number. Because this model is fed by a 115V circuit, the electrical side matters too: the LIV09HP115V1R32AO draws 12.5 A in cooling and 15.4 A in heating with a 19 A minimum circuit ampacity, so it needs its own dedicated 20-amp 115V branch circuit rather than a shared receptacle.
Ideal for: Bedrooms, home offices, nurseries, finished attics, small apartments, converted bonus rooms, and any retrofit where running a new 208-230V circuit to the equipment is impractical or expensive.
Need more capacity? Step up to the 12,000 BTU Gree Livo 19 SEER2 115V Heat Pump System to gain roughly a third more capacity while staying on 115-volt power.
Recommended applications are general guidelines only. Actual system requirements depend on insulation, window area, ceiling height, ambient conditions, occupancy, and internal heat gain. Request free sizing assistance, contact Budget Heating, or call 813-885-7999.

The condenser and air handler ship as a factory-matched pair carrying AHRI certification 214779525, so the rated efficiency belongs to this exact combination. The outdoor unit holds an 18.7 oz factory charge and is pre-charged for 25 feet of line set, with 0.2 oz per foot added beyond that. Flare connections are 1/4 inch liquid and 3/8 inch gas, total pipe length can run from 10 to 66 feet, and maximum elevation difference between units is 40 feet. Wi-Fi is included and an optional XE71 wired controller interface is available if a hard-wired wall control is preferred over the handheld remote.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the LIV09HP115V1R32AO really plug into a standard household circuit?
It runs on 115V single-phase power, which is the same voltage as a standard household circuit, but it still requires its own dedicated 20-amp branch circuit. The submittal lists a 19 A minimum circuit ampacity, a 20 A maximum overcurrent protection, and a 20 A suggested breaker size, so it should not share a circuit with receptacles or lighting.
How much heat does this 9,000 BTU Livo produce when it gets genuinely cold?
Heating output is 10,000 BTU/h at 47°F, 6,000 BTU/h at 17°F, and a maximum of 7,600 BTU/h at 5°F. Rated heating operation extends down to -13°F outdoor ambient. Like every air-source heat pump, capacity falls as outdoor temperature drops, so cold-climate installations should be sized against the design heating load rather than the nameplate figure.
What is I-Feel and why does it matter in a bedroom?
I-Feel moves temperature sensing from the air handler to the remote control. Because a wall-mounted head reads the air near the ceiling, the room can feel warmer than the thermostat believes. With I-Feel active, the system controls to the temperature at the remote — on a nightstand, for example — which keeps sleeping spaces closer to the setpoint you actually chose.
What refrigerant does this system use and does it need a special line set?
It uses R-32, a lower-global-warming-potential refrigerant that operates at higher pressures than R-410A. Standard flare-connection mini split line set in the correct 1/4 inch liquid and 3/8 inch gas sizes is used, but installers should follow the service manual's pressure ratings and torque specifications, and R-32 is mildly flammable (A2L) so the manual's handling requirements apply.
How far apart can the indoor and outdoor units be placed?
Total pipe length runs from a 10 foot minimum to a 66 foot maximum, with up to 40 feet of elevation difference between the two units. The condenser arrives pre-charged for 25 feet, and 0.2 oz of refrigerant per foot is added beyond that length.
Is a wall control available instead of the handheld remote?
Yes. The wireless remote with LCD display is included in the box, and Gree offers the optional XE71 wired controller interface for installations where a fixed wall control is preferred — rental units and light commercial spaces, for instance. Wi-Fi is also included for app-based control.
