In detail: Daikin Sensira FTXC60D + RXC60D, reversible split air conditioner 21000 BTU
The Daikin FTXC60D/RXC60D belongs to the professional Sensira Bluevolution range, sold as a complete ClimaConveniente bundle that includes the fitting accessories directly: 7 metres of copper pipe (1/4" and 1/2"), electrical cable, condensate drain hose and wall brackets for the outdoor unit. This reversible fixed split air conditioner, rated at 21,000 BTU/h (6.1 kW nominal cooling, 6.4 kW heating), targets large living rooms or small commercial spaces, with a Class A++ cooling and A+ heating energy rating.
Under the hood, the Inverter compressor continuously adjusts the output delivered, from 1.8 to 7.0 kW cooling and 1.48 to 8.0 kW heating, rather than switching on and off at full power. The result: a SEER of 6.4 and a SCOP of 4.24 in an average climate, solid figures for the category. The R-32 refrigerant, part of the Bluevolution range, lowers environmental impact compared with older gases while improving the unit's energy efficiency.
On the noise side, the indoor unit drops to 30 dB(A) at its lowest fan speed, close to the ambient noise of a quiet room, and stays under 46 dB(A) even at full power. The outdoor unit sits between 49 and 54 dB(A) depending on the mode. A dehumidifying mode and a fan-only function round out the seasonal uses, while a standby mode limits power draw when the unit isn't actively running.
Unlike more recent models from the brand, WiFi is not built in as standard on this Sensira range: it requires adding the optional dedicated Daikin interface for remote control from a smartphone. Worth knowing before buying if standard connectivity is a priority for you.
Like any fixed split air conditioner, made up of an indoor and an outdoor unit connected by a refrigerant line, installing the FTXC60D must be entrusted to a certified professional to handle the refrigerant gas. The supplied kit still makes the job considerably easier by avoiding a separate order of pipes and accessories from a wholesaler. For anyone after reliable 6 kW Daikin output, with most of the fitting hardware already in the box, this model remains a sound option on a controlled budget.

Comparison
Around £1,000 to £1,800, the Daikin FTXC60D regularly comes up against the Mitsubishi Electric MSZ-HR60VF, another reversible split air conditioner of similar output, in searches like "Daikin FTXC60D vs Mitsubishi HR60VF". Here is how the two compare, based on the public specifications of both manufacturers.
| Criterion | Daikin FTXC60D | Mitsubishi MSZ-HR60VF |
|---|---|---|
| Cooling capacity | 6.1 kW (21,000 BTU/h) | 6.1 kW (21,000 BTU/h) |
| Heating capacity | 6.4 kW | 6.8 kW |
| Indoor noise level | From 30 dB(A) | From 33 dB(A) |
| Connectivity | Optional WiFi (dedicated interface) | Built-in WiFi |
| Installation kit | 7 m included (pipes, cable, brackets) | Not included, sold separately |
| Price observed | ≈£1,075 (complete kit) | ≈£1,829 (unit only) |
In short, both units offer identical cooling capacity. The Mitsubishi brings built-in WiFi and slightly higher heating output, at a higher price and without a fitting kit. The Daikin FTXC60D banks on an unbeatable price-to-kit ratio, with most of the installation hardware already in the box, a real advantage for a job with no last-minute parts order.

Our tester's verdict: Christophe Delpuech
Fitted at a client's home to serve a large living room over 50 sq m, where the priority was strong output without paying for Daikin's most premium ranges. The complete kit supplied with the unit, copper pipes, electrical cable and wall brackets all included, saved me real time on site: no separate order to plan ahead with a wholesaler before starting. Once both units were connected and the line run, the living room cooled convincingly, reaching a comfortable temperature drop within about twenty minutes. The noise level I measured on my phone in quiet mode stayed discreet, under 35 dB(A), a genuine plus next to a bedroom. On the heating side, the heat pump takes over efficiently in the shoulder seasons, a real advantage over a cooling-only unit. My only gripe: WiFi isn't built in on this Sensira range, you need to add the optional interface if remote control matters to you. For a client after reliable Daikin power at a contained price, installation kit included, this is a model I'm happy to recommend.
Frequently asked questions: Daikin Sensira FTXC60D + RXC60D, reversible split air conditioner 21000 BTU
Yes, for most residential setups where the outdoor unit sits close to the room being cooled. The kit includes 7 m of 1/4" and 1/2" copper pipe, the electrical cable and the condensate drain hose. Beyond that distance, a longer line will be needed, fitted by a certified professional.
No, unlike more recent models from the brand, WiFi isn't built in as standard on this Sensira range: you need to add the optional dedicated Daikin interface to control the unit remotely from a smartphone.
At 21,000 BTU/h (6.1 kW), this model typically suits a well-insulated room of 50 to 60 sq m, or more depending on orientation and ceiling height. Our power calculator refines this estimate for your exact setup.
Yes, it's a reversible model working as a heat pump: alongside cooling (6.1 kW, Class A++), it heats with 6.4 kW nominal output, Class A+ and a SCOP of 4.24 in an average climate, for year-round use.
The indoor unit drops to 30 dB(A) at its lowest fan speed and stays under 46 dB(A) at full power. The outdoor unit sits between 49 and 54 dB(A) depending on the operating mode, a common range for this output category.
