Installation and Integration
Inverter-Driven Technology and HVAC Performance
As multifamily development continues
to prioritize space efficiency and higherdensity
layouts, HVAC system design is becoming
a critical factor in overall project
value.
Today’s air handling units are engineered for early-stage specification, enabling engineers to incorporate space-saving HVAC design into project plans from the outset. Installed within the ceiling, the system shifts HVAC equipment out of the occupied living space while maintaining ducted heating and cooling performance.
An ultra low-profile design helps accommodate ceiling space constraints and existing building systems, including ductwork and fire protection layouts.
This configuration eliminates the need for a dedicated mechanical closet, and keeps equipment concealed from primary living areas. The system combines a low-profile, ceiling-mounted design with inverter-driven heat pump performance and optional auxiliary heat capability, providing engineers and developers with a practical solution for buildings where space is at a premium.
