The technology allows for cost-effective year-round comfort that is otherwise unavailable in typical fixed-speed or staged heat pumps. H2i overcomes issues commonly associated with conventional heat pumps—such as decreases in low-side pressure, refrigerant mass flow rate, and operational capacity. H2i is used in conjunction with Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) zoning systems and is compatible with the control adapters. The result of coupling H2i’s exceptional heating performance with VRF’s benefits is impressive performance reliability, sole heat source functionality, energy efficiency, cost savings, space savings, and low ambient cooling.
