Choctaw General Hospital in Butler, Ala., installed a variable refrigerant flow (VRF) zoning system when it chose an HVAC system for patient comfort in its 44,000-square-foot addition, according to a case study on the Mitsubishi Electric website.
Rush Health Systems (Rush), Meridian, Mississippi, opened the first hospital in Choctaw County, Alabama in 2012. The Choctaw General Hospital, a 74,000-square-foot critical access hospital, needed a unique HVAC system to meet patients’ comfort needs.
Fred Rogers, Rush Health Systems's vice president, chief resource officer and facility manager said he installed his first VRF system years ago in the flagship Rush Health Systems hospital in downtown Meridian. The system saved $36,000 the first year.
"I now specify VRF zoning for all new critical access hospitals we build: Choctaw is our fifth.”
