VRF systems allow the user to cool and heat different rooms simultaneously. VRF stands for variable refrigerant flow. These units are incredibly powerful and efficient. It helps to think of a VRF system as an enhanced version of a ductless mini-split heating and cooling system. Although they are primarily used in commercial buildings, there are residential VRF systems. At Smilie’s Heating and Air Conditioning, our team can help you get reliable heating and cooling for your space.
Unlike a traditional HVAC system, VRF systems can provide differentiating temperatures throughout multiple rooms. The VRF system operates by controlling the refrigerant flow through multiple evaporator coils. Similar to mini-split systems, VRF systems connect multiple indoor units with one central outdoor condensing unit. The indoor units are responsible for delivering heat or cold to different areas throughout the building. The technology behind VRF systems allows them to perform at incredibly high capacities and helps ensure that your indoor air is comfortable.
