5 Reasons why people prefer VRV/VRF systems over traditional systems of air conditioning.
The buzzword in the HVAC industry for a long-time has been VRV/VRF systems..
Not many people know the difference between these terms. Variable Refrigerant Volume (VRV) is a type of technology invented by Daikin Company in 1980’s. They had put a copyright mark on this keyword and thus VRV couldn’t be used by other HVAC companies. Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) means the same as VRV, the only difference being the former is used by Daikin and the latter is used by other companies for their marketing and communication.
We list down 5 reasons why most architects, builders, designers & consultants prefer VRV/VRF systems over traditional systems of air conditioning like chiller systems.
- SMART System

Unlike the traditional chiller systems VRV/VRF can help in cooling certain areas of the site and reduce energy consumption. This is possible as VRF systems are smart systems which work on logic electronically fed. It regulates the cooling/heating through one refrigerant only. It captures the indoor temperature required through the remote and based on calculations of outside ambient temperature it regulates the flow of refrigerant.
- SPACE Saving
The traditional unitary Dx (Split) systems have one outdoor unit for one indoor unit. This means for every individual indoor unit there is an outdoor unit. In VRV/VRF systems there is a single outdoor unit for multiple indoor units. The capacity is measured in HP. In a city like Mumbai where space is rarely available the designers generally go for VRF systems.
- Customization
The best part about a VRF system is that one can fit different types of air conditioning units with a single outdoor. Be it a split unit or cassette unit or ducted unit all of them can be matched with a single outdoor as per user requirement.
- Power Saving
Compared to traditional systems VRV/VRF systems help in saving the electrical cost by 30-40%. This is because of the smart functionality of these systems which regulate the flow of refrigerant through the systems.
- Simultaneous heating & cooling
The machines of VRV/VRF come with the flexibility of running on heating mode and as well as cooling as users require. So according to the ambient temperature and human comfort one can switch between the modes anytime
The future of air conditioning is VRV/VRF systems. Ditch that traditional system and go for VRV/VRF systems today.
