Mitsubishi Electric US, Inc. Cooling & Heating Division (Mitsubishi Electric), a leading manufacturer of Zoned Comfort Solutions™ and Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) cooling and heating systems, offers energy-efficient personal comfort control for a variety of commercial applications. Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) zoning is an innovative technology that cools or heats each room or zone in a building to the precise level needed, maximizing occupant comfort and energy efficiency. Popular commercial applications include both new construction and renovations in education, hospitality, health and wellness, multifamily and mixed-use facilities, among others.
Mitsubishi Electric was the first manufacturer to introduce VRF technology to the U.S. market over 10 years ago. The systems connect one outdoor unit (pictured left) to as many as 48 indoor units (one style is pictured below, right) through small piping and electrical wiring.
“VRF technology is a smarter way to cool and heat buildings,” says Kevin Miskewicz, director, commercial marketing, Mitsubishi Electric US, Inc. Cooling & Heating Division. “Traditional cooling and heating systems require tremendous energy to force air from a central blower to a room through a complex system of ductwork, which uses space in

Other key benefits of Mitsubishi Electric’s VRF zoning systems include: – Personalized comfort control. Mitsubishi Electric systems offer advanced userfriendly climate control options for buildings using an intelligent proprietary controls network, including functions such as individual metering and centralized temperature control and monitoring. – Energy efficiency.
VRF systems consistently use 30 to 40 percent less energy than conventional HVAC systems and are designed to help buildings earn Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED®) points from the U. S. Green Building Council (USGBC). Up to 89 percent of the materials used to build a standard CITY MULTI® system are recyclable, minimizing landfill impact. – Hyper-Heating INVERTER™ (H2i®) technology. Mitsubishi Electric has seven years of cold-climate heat pump experience, and offers a complete family of hyper-heating products from single-zone 9,000 Btu/h up to multi-zone VRF systems of 16 tons.
The H2i R2-Series, introduced in 2014, allows for 100 percent heating capacity at zero degrees Fahrenheit and simultaneous cooling and heating down to minus 4 degrees Fahrenheit. – Easier installation and operation. VRF technology is advanced, but the system itself is straightforward to design and install. The system components are compact, resulting in minimized labor requirements, fewer materials, faster installation and a lower operating cost. – Quiet operation.
VRF systems are designed to provide the quietest possible operation for both indoor and outdoor environments. Indoor units operate between 19 and 34 decibels – quieter than a human whisper. – Simultaneous cooling and heating. Mitsubishi Electric’s CITY MULTI R2Series VRF System can simultaneously cool and heat different zones in a building with the industry’s only two-pipe design. The multi-zone system offers the Mitsubishi Electric Offers Energy-efficient Personal Comfort Control for Commercial Applications Page 3 capability for each zone to be set to optimum temperatures, according to each individual room’s conditioning requirements.
