Delivery and installation of VRF and mini VRF systems
VRF and mini VRF systems deliver precise, room by room comfort with impressive efficiency and quiet operation. They are an excellent choice for offices, retail spaces, multi room homes, and buildings where zoning and temperature stability matter. Our team provides reliable delivery, careful installation, and a clean handover so your system performs as designed from day one.
From selecting the right capacity to placing indoor units for best airflow, we manage the full process with safety and workmanship in mind. Whether you are replacing older equipment or fitting out a new space, we coordinate the practical details that make a complex installation run smoothly.
What we deliver and install
VRF systems use a single outdoor unit connected to multiple indoor units, adjusting refrigerant flow to match real demand. Mini VRF solutions bring the same core advantages to smaller properties with simpler layouts and fewer indoor units. We install both heat pump and heat recovery configurations, depending on how you need the building to operate.
- System planning and equipment delivery with coordinated timing for site access, lifting, and storage
- Indoor and outdoor unit installation including wall mounted, cassette, ducted, and floor console options
- Refrigerant pipework and insulation sized and routed for performance and service access
- Condensate management with correctly pitched drains and condensate pumps where required
- Electrical and controls integration including wired controllers, central control, and basic BMS interfacing when specified
- Commissioning and performance checks to confirm stable operation, temperatures, and error free start up
If you are comparing solutions or coordinating multiple building services, we can also align the VRF work with broader hvac installation services requirements to reduce downtime and avoid clashes on site.
Our installation process
1. Site survey and design confirmation
We begin with a detailed site survey, checking room layouts, ceiling voids, wall construction, and suitable locations for outdoor units. We confirm pipe routes, maximum pipe lengths, elevation limits, drainage options, and electrical supply. If you already have drawings, we validate them on site and highlight any practical changes needed for reliability and serviceability.
2. Preparation and safe delivery
Delivery is scheduled to match your site readiness. Equipment is inspected on arrival, stored safely, and protected from damage. For tight access areas, we plan how units will be moved through corridors, stairwells, or lifts, and we coordinate any required lifting support.
3. Installation of indoor units, pipework, and wiring
Indoor units are mounted with attention to airflow, noise, and future maintenance access. Refrigerant lines are installed neatly with proper support, insulation, and labeling. Electrical cabling and communication wiring are routed cleanly and terminated to manufacturer guidance. Where ducted units are used, we confirm return and supply paths to avoid short cycling and comfort issues.
4. Pressure testing, evacuation, and commissioning
We pressure test the system to verify tightness, then evacuate to remove moisture and non condensables. After releasing the correct charge and completing start up procedures, we run checks across operating modes, verify temperatures, and confirm stable communications between all units. We also demonstrate controller functions so your team can use schedules and zones effectively.
Why VRF and mini VRF are a smart choice
These systems are designed for variable demand, which helps reduce energy waste compared to fixed output equipment. They also provide zoning, so meeting rooms, offices, and bedrooms can be conditioned independently.
- High efficiency through inverter driven compressors and capacity modulation
- Zoned comfort with individual room control and flexible indoor unit types
- Compact footprint especially with mini VRF for smaller properties
- Quiet operation suitable for hospitality, clinics, and noise sensitive spaces
- Scalable expansion in many cases, additional indoor units can be added later within design limits
For projects that also include ventilation upgrades or comfort balancing, we can coordinate with related ventilation services so air movement and temperature control work together instead of competing.
Quality, compliance, and aftercare
VRF installations involve strict requirements for pipework integrity, condensate handling, electrical protection, and refrigerant safety. We follow manufacturer procedures and applicable regulations, using calibrated tools and documented test steps. Our goal is to deliver a system that is efficient, reliable, and straightforward to maintain.
After installation, we support you with practical guidance on filter care, basic controller settings, and recommended service intervals. If you need ongoing support, we can arrange planned visits aligned with hvac maintenance services expectations for your building type and usage patterns.

FAQ
How long does a VRF or mini VRF installation typically take?
Timeframes depend on the number of indoor units, pipe routes, and access. Many small mini VRF projects take a few days, while larger VRF systems can take one to two weeks. We confirm a schedule after the site survey and coordinate delivery to match readiness.
Can you install VRF in an existing building without major disruption?
Yes, in many cases pipework can be routed through ceiling voids, risers, or service corridors to minimize disruption. We plan noisy or high access tasks outside peak hours when possible. A site survey helps identify the cleanest routes and any constraints early.
What commissioning checks do you perform after installation?
We pressure test and evacuate the refrigerant circuit, verify correct electrical protection, and confirm communication between indoor and outdoor units. We test heating and cooling operation, check temperatures and drainage, and review controller functions with you. Any installation notes and recommended maintenance intervals are provided at handover.
