Mini-Splits by Joseph designs, installs, and supports Fujitsu VRF systems for offices, retail, restaurants, breweries, multifamily buildings, and light industrial facilities across the Front Range.
Flexible VRF Design for Denver Buildings
Fujitsu AIRSTAGE VU-V outdoor units can operate either as heat pump (HP) or heat recovery (HR) systems with simple configuration changes and branch units. That gives engineers and owners flexibility to support spaces that need simultaneous heating and cooling, such as perimeter vs core zones. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
- Single-module lineup from approx. 6–16 tons
- Combination capacity up to 36 tons on one system
- Up to 64 indoor units on a large system design :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
- Wide piping allowances — total piping up to about 3,280 ft for design flexibility :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
- Adjustable external static pressure for mechanical room or louvered installs :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}
We coordinate with your architect, engineer, or GC to make sure equipment placement, piping routes, and electrical requirements fit your Denver project.
Key AIRSTAGE VU-V Features for Colorado Projects
Wide Capacity Range
Single outdoor modules from 6–16 tons and system combinations up to 36 tons reduce the number of outdoor units and free up valuable rooftop or grade-level space. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}
Heat Pump & Heat Recovery
Choose heat pump for uniform operation, or heat recovery where zones need simultaneous heating and cooling (ideal for offices, hospitality, and mixed-use buildings). :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}
Wide Operating Range
Outdoor operation down to roughly -15°F in heating and up to about 126°F in cooling supports the Front Range’s temperature extremes. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}
Long Piping & Design Flexibility
Generous total and vertical piping limits allow remote equipment yards, mechanical rooms, and multi-story distribution up to about 3,280 ft total piping. :contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8}
Energy-Saving Scroll Compressors
Advanced scroll compressors with wide speed ranges and sensorless sine-wave control improve energy efficiency and reduce sound levels. :contentReference[oaicite:9]{index=9}
Advanced Controls & Monitoring
Compatible with the AIRSTAGE controls and cloud platforms for scheduling, zoning, and remote facility monitoring. :contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}
Typical Fujitsu VRF Use Cases in Denver
| Building Type | VRF Approach | Design Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Office / Tenant Improvement | Floor-by-floor VRF with heat recovery zones | Core/perimeter zoning, future TI flexibility, BMS/controls integration |
| Mixed-Use & Multifamily | Central VRF with branch boxes, multiple indoor unit styles | Sound levels, service access, metering strategies, code compliance |
| Restaurants / Retail | VRF serving dining, back of house, and individual tenant suites | High load variation, heat recovery between sunny/shaded zones |
| Hotels & Hospitality | VRF for guest rooms + public spaces | Individual room control, low sound, integration with DOAS/ventilation |
| Breweries & Taprooms | VRF for taprooms, offices, and support spaces | Works alongside dedicated process cooling and walk-ins |
We can also integrate VRF systems with walk-in coolers & freezers and other commercial HVAC systems for a complete building comfort solution.
Designed for Denver’s Climate, Codes & Neighborhoods
From downtown Denver to Edgewater, Lakewood, and the greater Front Range, VRF systems have to be designed around altitude, outdoor temperature swings, and local building codes.
- Altitude-aware equipment selection and commissioning
- Coordination with electrical panels and MCA/MOP values
- Proper clearances and serviceability on rooftops and pads
- Integration with existing systems and future expansion
We frequently work in neighborhoods around Edgewater, Sloan’s Lake, Highlands, LoHi, Wheat Ridge, Arvada, Lakewood, Golden, and commercial corridors throughout the Denver metro and Front Range.
