Based in Washington, Dc, Capitol Seniors Housing (Csh) has developed or acquired more than 120 senior housing communities nationwide and deployed over $2.5 billion of investment capital. The firm specializes in the design, development, financing and operation of state-of-the-art senior living communities and has earned a reputation for comfortable, safe, resident-centered life experiences for older adults.

Csh has used CITY MULTI® Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) zoning systems from Mitsubishi Electric to maximize year-round comfort and improve net operating income (Noi) at several facilities since 2016. The INVERTER-driven systems use the minimum amount of electricity to reach and maintain set points, offering residents consistent comfort while reducing energy bills. Simultaneous heating and cooling operation via heat recovery further improves energy efficiency and comfort by moving heat from zones in air-conditioning mode to zones in heating mode. Since the systems include Hyper-Heating INVERTER® (H2i®) technology, Csh has experienced gas-free heating at temperatures as low as -27.4° F.

Ultra-quiet, four-way ceiling cassettes or horizontal-ducted units condition resident rooms, fostering a peaceful environment for sleep or recreation. Simple MA Remote Controllers empower residents to fine-tune their room’s comfort, while Ae-200 Centralized Controllers allow the Csh operations team to access, control and diagnose the HVAC equipment onsite or remotely with a computer or smart device. While the VRF systems provide precise temperature control, PremiSys® Dedicated Outdoor Air Systems supply fresh ventilation air.
