VRF (variable refrigerant flow) SYSTEM - has zoning capability; can heat and cool simultaneously; high energy efficiency since air no longer moves through ductwork - instead, system moves conditioned refrigerant to the locations where it is needed.
Air-cooled systems can be placed on roofs, mounted indoors with ducts to the outside and used on grade level installations.
Water-cooled systems can offer a more flexible installation, compact design and can be utilized for geothermal heating and cooling.

A clear view of the south's greenest college building emerges from its schematic design. Here's a close look at the Living Building at Georg
Mechanical system: Radiant pipes embedded in concrete floors will heat and cool most of the building. In the summer, a custom-made dedicated outdoor air system, or DOAS, will dehumidify the building by running outside air over cooler coils that condense out moisture as the air enters the building. And photovoltaic panels on the upper roof are expected to generate nearly 300 kilowatts of electricity.
Brune says his team spent a fair amount of time modeling screening options being considered by the design team to allow natural light into the building while reducing the cooling. To supplement shade trees, the architects settled on strategically placed, external, horizontal shades on east and west windows. The collage of energy solutions offers a tantalizing example of how the building itself might advance one of the project’s larger goals: To serve as a model for regenerative building across the Southeast and in similar climates around the world.
“Our aspiration is that the systems being employed on this project, and the mechanical solutions in particular, will serve as an example to be replicated by others in high humidity climates.”

“There is a myth that radiant cooling can be used only in arid climates. The fact is that radiant cooling has been successfully done in one of the most hot and humid climates in the world — Thailand. The Bangkok airport boasts 1.6 million square feet of radiantly-cooled floor. It is used in a very practical application — to cool areas where there is high solar heat gain through windows onto floors. According to ASHRAE, solar heat gain through large areas of glass can be up to 70% of the cooling load, especially with southern exposure.”
