When it comes to effectively air conditioning more than one room, two main types of systems stand out as the most commonly used: multisplit<\/strong> \u0438 centralized air conditioning systems (VRF\/VRV type)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The choice between them depends on several key factors \u2013 building size, need for individual control, budget and architectural constraints<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the following lines we will present a comparison between the two approaches, based on technical and practical aspects<\/strong>, which we often discuss with our clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are systems?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Multisplit system<\/strong>
This is a configuration where one outdoor unit<\/strong> serves several indoor units<\/strong> (usually between 2 and 5). Suitable for homes, small offices and commercial premises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Centralized system (VRF\/VRV)<\/strong>
It is mainly used in medium and large scale buildings<\/strong> \u2013 offices, hotels, public and industrial facilities. Allows the connection of dozens of indoor units to one or several outdoor modules, with individual control and high energy efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Main differences<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Criterion<\/th>Multisplit system<\/th>Centralized system<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
Number of indoor units<\/strong><\/td>Usually up to 5<\/td>Up to 64+ <\/td><\/tr>
Control<\/strong><\/td>Independent for each body<\/td>Full individual control + centralized management<\/td><\/tr>
Installation<\/strong><\/td>Suitable for small buildings; limited piping length<\/td>Flexible configuration; suitable for multi-story and large-scale buildings<\/td><\/tr>
System price<\/strong><\/td>Lower initial investment<\/td>Higher initial cost, but savings in the long run<\/td><\/tr>
Energy efficiency<\/strong><\/td>High for a small number of rooms<\/td>Extremely high, especially at partial load<\/td><\/tr>
Expansion options<\/strong><\/td>Limited<\/td>High degree of scalability<\/td><\/tr>
Automation and smart functions<\/strong><\/td>Limited<\/td>Advanced BMS integration and remote control capabilities<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Suitable applications<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Multisplit:<\/strong> apartments, family houses, small offices, shops<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Centralized system:<\/strong> business buildings, hotels, hospitals, logistics centers, educational institutions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    What to consider when choosing?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Area and layout of the premises<\/strong> \u2013 with a large distance between rooms, a centralized system is more flexible.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Need for control and automation<\/strong> \u2013 if precise control is required, VRF systems offer more options.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Budget and planned operation<\/strong> \u2013 multisplit solutions are more affordable, but not always the most effective for long-term use.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Opportunities for future expansion<\/strong> \u2013 the centralized approach offers greater flexibility.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Conclusion<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      There is no universal \u201ebest\u201c solution \u2013 the choice between a multisplit and a centralized system depends on the specific needs of the building and the user<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
