Water Cooled VRV Air Conditioning
Water cooled air conditioning is a popular choice where space is at a premium. High rise buildings in urban centres are a good example of the ideal application for such units.

Benefits of Water Cooled VRV Air Conditioning

Water cooled air conditioning units have several beneficial features:-

1. Ideal for installation in restricted spaces.
Water cooled VRV units require considerably less space than conventional air cooled air conditioning. The footprint of a water cooled unit can be only 60% of that of an air cooled one. Additionally, the low height casing of a water cooled unit enables double stacked installation. A water cooled VRV unit will weight around 40% less that an air cooled VRV unit.

2. Energy Efficient Start Up
The compressor start is very smooth and soft and is accelerated gradually with no rush current. This avoids a costly power spike on start up and enables a down sizing of power cable, a further cost saving

3. F-Gas Content Reduction
The refrigerant charge compared with an air cooled VRV air conditioning unit can be reduced by over 40%. This is a serious contribution toward the objectives of the F-Gas regulations – see F-Gas Regulations page. The highly efficient compressor used in water cooled air conditioning units also reduces the probability of refrigerant links – a key requirement of the F-Gas regulations. See F-Gas Context for details.
