R-22 REPLACEMENT, WHY REPLACE? VRVIII Q / VRV / CHILLERS / SPLITS / ROOF TOP PACKAGED / AIR HANDLING UNITS If you have Air Conditioning in your workplace that is 10 years old or more, there is every possibility, even if it is still working OK, that it is coming to the end of its serviceable life by law! REGULATION HCFC R-22 refrigerant is the most widely used in air conditioning, heat pump and refrigeration equipment in the world, however it is classified as an ozone-depleting substance and is the subject of a phase-out programme under the European Community (EC) Regulation no. 2037/2000. From Dec 2014 it will become illegal to use HCFC R-22, virgin or reclaimed, in any AC, heat pump or refrigeration equipment for service or maintenance purposes. LEGISLATION The Energy Performance in Buildings Directive (EPBD) requires that all air conditioning systems with an effective rated output of more than 12kW must be regularly inspected by an Energy Assessor; the inspections must be no more than 5 years apart. Systems >250kW should have been inspected by 4th Jan 2009; systems >12kW should have been inspected by 4th Jan 2011 (systems installed on or after 1st Jan 2008 must have their first inspection within 5 years of being put to service).

It may seem galling that European regulation and legislation appears to be forcing us to replace equipment that we might have expected to last perhaps another 5 or even 10 years with appropriate maintenance. Like it or not, we do have environmental responsibilities and the regulation and legislation we refer to here is all about that. Tough though it may be to find the financial resource to comply, particularly when recovering from a period of recession, replacing equipment still operating with R-22 refrigerant will actually pay substantial dividends in terms of reduced operating and maintenance costs at a price per kw that is actually lower today than it was when the equipment was new! FACT: R-410A is ozone benign and is proven to be more energy efficient than R-22.

THE VRV IIIQ SYSTEM AIR COOLED / DIRECT REPLACEMENT Daikin s VRV systems are among the most energy efficient, reliable, flexible and sophisticated systems on the market today. Many existing VRV systems (the original system of it s type established in 1982) will be nearing the end of their life cycleeither due to age or prematurely as a result of the HCFC (R-22) refrigerant phase-out. DIRECT REPLACEMENT VRVQ Daikin s VRVQ has been introduced to reduce the cost and disruption of replacing an existing older VRV system, the latest innovation in the extensive Daikin VRV range. Historically it has not been possible to replace R-22 systems without also replacing all the interconnecting pipework due to high risk of damage/contamination. Pipework often follows complex routes and is a semi-permanent fixture, therefore difficult and very costly to remove or replace. VRVQ enables existing pipework and some types of indoor fan coil units to be re-used, subject to site survey findings.

VRVQ has been designed to enable older VRV systems to be replaced without the need to renew the existing pipework Above: Actual R-22 Space Air replacements / internal REAL LIFE EXAMPLE: The following real life examples demonstrate the huge benefits VRVQ will give you. HIGH EFFICIENCY Upgrading an old R-22 system with a replacement VRV system will result in increased system efficiency. Efficiency gains of more than 40% in cooling can be realised; by virtue of technological developments in current heat pump technology, and the more efficient R-410A refrigerant. Increased energy efficiency equals reduced energy consumption, subsequent lower energy costs and CO 2 emissions, subject to site survey findings.

VRV SYSTEMS AIR COOLED / WATER COOLED / EXTENDING CAPACITY A complete replacement system may sometimes be the best alternative, based on initial investment and system operating costs. Daikin technology has moved forward at a considerable rate the VRV range has expanded and now includes geothermal type systems and more recently Daikin's VRV TS total solution. Space Air will always survey your existing system and recommend the best option! Daikin VRV TS Total Solutions Today, end users expect far more than just cooling and heating from their air conditioning systems. Daikin's VRV 'TS' is a year round climate control solution for commercial applications, offices, hotels, gyms and so on. Even in winter, when the temperature outside is below 0 C, areas can need cooling where people and equipment are generating heat. The VRV TS modular system is a highly efficient and flexible total solution system for simultaneous heating and cooling that is able to connect to all VRV components: When the VRV heat recovery system is in cooling mode, waste heat is recovered and transferred from the refrigerant cycle to the water circuit via the hydro-box boiler to produce free hot water. The Daikin VRV TS ensures your building has the right selection of equipment and technology to achieve the optimal balance of temperature, humidity, air freshness and control.

The water-cooled VRV has superior efficiencies even in the most extreme outdoor temperatures. The heat recovery system will redistribute heat when in cooling mode. For simultaneous heating and cooling from one system. Heat exhausted from indoor units in the cooling cycle is merely transferred to units in areas requiring heat, maximising energy efficiency, reducing electricity costs and leading to high part load efficiencies (up to 9:1).

HEAT RECOVERY VENTILATION MODULAR VENTILATION / CENTRAL VENTILATION Space Air has been working with Daikin Europe N.V. supplying climate control solutions since 1980 HEAT RECOVERY VENTILATION Efficient ventilation is a key element of the Part F regulations. Daikin s heat recovery ventilation modules can be applied as stand alone units or incorporated with Daikin s air conditioning systems (Split, Sky Air, VRV and Chillers). Temperature and humidity are exchanged between the supply and exhaust air, recovering potential energy losses and reducing the air conditioning loads for further energy savings.
