The Toshiba VRF systems can optimize room comfort and reduces energy and maintenance costs, combined with maximized simplicity and operating flexibility. VRF benefits from the advantages of direct expansion linked to inverter control and the most sophisticated electronic control. This technology has many advantages, from the system design to the installation and operation phase. The wide range of indoor units makes VRF the most flexible choice to satisfy any building requirement.
As buildings turn smarter, they are becoming physical manifestation of saying ‘we want you to feel comfortable and relax’. They should be able to adapt to the needs of the people and the businesses within them.
