What is a Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) system?

A Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) system is a type of HVAC system that provides highly efficient and customizable heating and cooling for commercial spaces. VRF systems are known for their energy efficiency and ability to heat and cool simultaneously in different areas. VRF systems are a good option for large buildings or properties with varying temperature requirements.

What is a Variable Air Volume (VAV) system?

A Variable Air Volume (VAV) HVAC system adjusts the volume of air based on the heating and cooling needs of specific spaces. VAV systems save energy by minimizing waste. A VAV system is often used in large commercial or office buildings.
