Taqeef Middle East Unveils Innovative VRF Cooling System Designed for Gulf Climates
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, May 28, 2025: In a remarkable advancement for climate control technology, Taqeef Middle East has officially launched the VC-V Series, O General’s inaugural desert-engineered, cooling-only Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) system. This cutting-edge system has been specifically developed to meet the severe climatic challenges posed by the Gulf region, particularly its extreme temperatures which can soar to unprecedented levels during the summer months.
The VC-V Series introduces a pioneering approach to air conditioning systems that distinguishes itself from conventional dual-function models. By concentrating solely on cooling capabilities, Taqeef asserts that the VC-V has achieved a commendable Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) of 5.07, a feat particularly significant given that it can maintain optimal performance even in ambient temperatures approaching 55°C, marking a significant leap in energy efficiency for cooling solutions tailored to arid climates.
Tariq Al Ghussein, the CEO of Taqeef, characterized the launch as nothing less than revolutionary. “The VC-V isn’t just a VRF upgrade; it’s a breakthrough,” he remarked. “We tore up the existing concepts and started from scratch to create a system that’s purely focused on cooling and specifically designed for our region.” Al Ghussein’s confidence echoes a commitment to innovation that Taqeef has upheld since its inception in 1973 with the introduction of its window air conditioning units, which fundamentally altered the living and architectural landscape of the Middle East.
One of the many advantages the VC-V system boasts is its minimal footprint; each unit occupies just 0.71 m², with an ability to scale up to an impressive 80 HP through modular construction that connects multiple outdoor units. This design philosophy not only streamlines the installation process by reducing the quantity of required equipment, piping, and materials but also correlates with significant project cost savings. Moreover, the system’s environmental credentials align with green building initiatives, notably meeting standards set forth by LEED and Estidama, thus promoting sustainable development across the region.
Among the technical specifications, the VC-V system integrates sophisticated features, including intelligent refrigerant control, four-face heat exchangers, and sine-wave DC inverter technology, which collectively enhance its operational efficiency. The advanced scroll compressors come equipped with refrigerant-cooled printed circuit boards (PCBs) shielded by anti-corrosion protections and silicon coatings, ensuring durability and functionality even in the harshest of desert conditions.
Taqeef also highlights the use of a propeller fan optimized via Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), along with DC fan motors that promise quiet operation while enhancing efficiency. Furthermore, maintenance protocols are facilitated through user-friendly 7-segment diagnostic displays coupled with automatic indoor address setting, which simplifies servicing needs for technicians.
An intriguing aspect of the VC-V Series is its versatility—offering 51 configuration combinations ranging from 8 to 80 HP—with the capability to connect up to 150% more indoor units in a single network. The system’s design includes unobtrusive one-way and 3D airflow cassette units that enhance air distribution, making it ideally suited for diverse architectural styles and retrofitting existing structures. Coupled with high static pressure capacities and broad piping design options, the VC-V system is prepared to accommodate even the most complex building designs.
As the Gulf region continues its rapid urban expansion, the demand for innovative and efficient cooling technologies will only grow. Taqeef’s VC-V Series represents a significant response to this demand, offering the promise of enhanced comfort for occupants while adhering to the sustainability goals that are becoming increasingly important to developers and residents alike.
Whether for commercial or residential applications, the newly launched VC-V Series stands as a testament to Taqeef’s legacy of innovation and commitment to efficient climate control solutions tailored specifically to the unique demands of the Gulf region.
