Overview
VRF systems vary refrigerant flow to each room’s load, giving good part-load efficiency and individual zone control. Heat-recovery models can cool and heat different zones at the same time.
Design must check pipe lengths, level differences, refrigerant concentration in small rooms per safety standards, and well-ventilated outdoor unit positions. The system suits fast-track projects and phased expansion.
