  5. Variable Refrigerant Flow http://www.acr-heat-pumps-today.co.uk/Air_Conditioning_and_Refrigeration-ch1/News/216/Zero_Refrigerant_in_Occupied_Spaces_HybridVRF_System_Launched_by_Mitsubishi_Electric/ Branch Controller: • One unit per floor • Cold and Hot lines come from the outdoor unit and go through the Branch Controller then to each individual indoor unit. Advantages: • Efficient Design • Comfort Control: Each room has its own thermostat which allows for one room to be cold and another room to be hot. • Sustainability Outdoor Units: • Range: 3-12 Tons • Maximum Piping Length: 984 FT. • Up to 40 indoor units on one outdoor unit Indoor Units: • Range: 7,500 – 48,000 btu • Types: Ceiling (Concealed), ceiling (Semi-Concealed) and floor or wall (Exposed)

  16. Dedicated Outside Air System • Advantages: • Energy Efficient • Maintains Humidity Levels • Quiet • Minimal Ceiling Space Required • System: • Main duct is 8 inches • Tributary ducts are 4 inches • Location: • Needs an exterior wall • The air from the restroom can be used as exhaust air. • Disadvantages: - Maintenance • Cost from design
