Armstrong Fluid Technology is offering a carefully researched and detailed whitepaper that analyzes the features and benefits of Hydronic systems compared to Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) systems.

Entitled, The Advantages of Hydronic Systems Versus Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) – A Critical Analysis, the 18-page whitepaper presents a detailed review of technical data plus post-installation analysis of system types. The insightful analysis also examines the cost-savings claims made by manufactures.

Some of the key findings include:

  • VRF can require expensive design modifications that increase costs
  • VRF systems can cost 10% to 25% higher than hydronic systems
  • Below 47ºF VFR System energy efficiency degrades considerably
  • Hydronic Systems can offer 57% to 84% energy savings over VRF
