Where the scope allows, it has become essential to look for cooling solutions that address Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) as much as they do energy efficiency. In a move aligned to this need, the 9th Edition of the Middle East VRF Conference that we conducted on May 7 in Riyadh, examined the possibility of variable refrigerant flow systems being part of a broader strategy to improve health and safety during pandemics and even during times of normalcy.
