A VRV aircon should be serviced as frequently as any other air conditioner in Singapore. In order to keep this air conditioning unit in top working order and to optimize its efficiency and accuracy its Planned Preventive Maintenance or PPM service schedule should be carried out regularly. This type of service schedule reduces the chances of failure of the equipment before its expected time and by replacing the worn out parts before their failure also improves its reliability.
Evolution of VRV air conditioners
Before knowing more about the frequency of service of VRV aircon you must have brief information about VRV system on the basis of which Daikin has developed a new range of air conditioning units. In 1982 Daikin has launched a new series of air conditioning units known as Daikin VRV Aircon System in which the system of Variable Refrigerant Volume was used for the first time in the world. In this technology only minimum amount of refrigerant is variably circulated at any point of time to enable an individual to control the climate of a certain air conditioning area. In this way Daikin Industries Ltd. has used VRV as one of its trade marks in the field of air conditioners.
