Panasonic has unveiled its new, large capacity, Mini VRF side blow system. Available now from 4 to 10HP, this compact system is the ideal solution for applications where outdoor space is at a minimum, but where a quality and reliable heating and cooling solution is paramount.

Heating and cooling solutions

Perfect solution for small shops, offices, large residential properties or condominiums where outdoor space is minimal, as well as larger, commercial applications including hotels or larger office buildings where the outdoor system should not intrude on the exterior décor.

Bluefi n (only for 8-10HP)

Bluefin treatment protect the coil itself against corrosion, ensuring that the unit continues to function with the same outstanding thermal exchange efficiency and performance over time.

New Inverter compressor (only for 8-10HP)

Thanks to its top class COP, high heat exchange performance due to its wide heat exchanger and extensive Inverter compressor range, which provides a high efficiency operation by the load, it is also incredibly energy saving.

Silent mode

Maximum 7dB(A) can be reduced by setting. External input signal is also available. In case of the installation at Condominium, quiet operation performance is important, especially in night time.
