large-scale ductless HVAC system that can perform at a high capacity.'
VARIABLE REFRIGERENT FLOW
33
usually used for cooling the small buildings or the rooms on the single floor
'DIRECT EXPANSION
34
supplies chilled water for cooling needs of all the building air- handling units. (AHUs)
CHILLED WATER SYSTEMS
35
facilitator of heat transfer between the inside of a building and outside of a building
CHILLED WATER SYSTEMS
36
are installed in an open window.
WINDOW AC
37
unit that includes the compressor, refrigerant and liquid line
WINDOW AC
38
On the exterior the heat drawn from the interior is dissipated into the environment as a second fan blows outside air over the condenser.
WINDOW AC
39
The condenser is separated from the "indoor unit", thus the term "split"

40
They are ductless and they can be great for use in both residential and commercial buildings.
SPLIT AC
41
equipment uses a stream of compressed air directed downwards to form shield to exclude drafts
