VRF (variable refrigerant flow) or VRV (variable refrigerant volume) air conditioning is ideally suited for medium to large applications, including large offices, retail spaces and mixed-use buildings. It is efficient, reliable and easy to control.
The two types of VRF/VRV system are heat pump and heat recovery. Heat pump VRF/VRV systems provide either heating or cooling to a building at any particular time.
Heat recovery VRF/VRV systems can provide heating and cooling simultaneously to different areas, making them ideal for properties with lots of rooms. They recover waste heat from around the building making them one of the most efficient commercial air conditioning systems, using it to heat other rooms and hot water.
