IT'S TIME TO THINK OUTSIDE THE VRV BOX

摘要

VRV technology, or VRF (Variable Refrigerant Flow) as it is generically known, has won widespread acclaim as being a highly efficient solution for integrating a building's heating, ventilation, air conditioning and even refrigeration requirements. However, there is a tacit understanding that VRV systems are only appropriate for small to medium buildings and that it does not offer the same level of design flexibility as a chilled water system. This is no Longer the case. In fact, VRV systems have come a long way since their introduction more than 30 years ago and offer much greater flexibility than some engineers realise. Advances in technology mean that the scope and capabilities of VRV systems make them suitable for a much wider range of applications, such as hospitals, leisure environments, schooLs, hotels and many more besides.
