Samsung incorporates AI into its air conditioning devices to achieve greater efficiency and comfort

Samsung Electronics has incorporated the AI Auto Comfort technology to their air conditioning devices,which allows the “best conditions of comfort and energy savings” to be automatically maintained, the company said in a statement.

With the arrival of heat waves, the demand for air conditioning increases, so that the residential air conditioning market has grown by around 40% in 2023 compared to the figures for 2022.

A recent study conducted by Samsung Electronics Air Conditioner Europe (SEACE) on half a thousand people reveals that Only 55% of Spaniards have air conditioning in their rooms in front of 73% do have it in large rooms of the house. In addition, excessive noise or cold can make it difficult to rest, as the study shows that 84% consider sound comfort very important as a decisive factor in the process of purchasing an air conditioner.

The three main factors when considering air conditioning for the home, according to the study, are longevity, energy efficiency and sustainability. Also, the 77% of respondents considers the possibility of using smart technology to be attractive help the home to optimize energy and water consumption and reduce waste.

Thanks to the ‘SmartThings’ app It is possible to monitor power consumption and adjust settings accordingly to manage both temperature and power consumption in a single app, Samsung said.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND CLASSIFICATION

On the other hand, 81% of consumers who are thinking of buying or have bought an air conditioning unit say that the Energy rating and efficiency are an important factor when making a decision.

All air conditioners Samsung WindFree have an energy rating of A++ or higherwhich means “having a pleasant and comfortable temperature with an electricity consumption that can be up to 50% more efficient compared to an A+ rated unit,” the company reported.

“With 38% considering the probable purchase of air conditioning in the next twelve months and increasingly strong heat waves, we expect the residential air conditioning market to continue growing in 2024,” said Alejandra Tortosa, head of air conditioning pre-sales at Samsung Electronics Iberia.

Tortosa explained that “AI not only measures the interior temperature conditions of the room, but also measures the ambient outside temperature” and “based on all these signals “builds operating patterns that seek to optimize energy consumption at all times.”

On the other hand, he pointed out that, given their design and conception, “Samsung’s equipment creates a “calm air” atmosphere due to its exclusive design.” “The technology Samsung WindFree and its thousands of micro-holes in the casing disperse fresh air throughout the room without drafts so that the consumer can enjoy a pleasant temperature, as the air is distributed smoothly and quietly with a very low air speed and less noise, promoting rest,” he said.

He also stated that this technology “can reduce consumption by up to 77%, which allows the user to forget about one of their main concerns: the energy bill.”

INTELLIGENT AIR CONDITIONING CONTROL

IA Auto Comfort allows the user to have the intelligent control of the air conditioning in your homes, since the air conditioner maintains comfortable conditions at all times automatically without you having to worry about it. According to Samsung, Automatically optimizes the different modes by analyzing the environmental conditions of the room and the outside personalizing usage patterns to make life easier and improve efficiency.

The unit is based on the users’ preferred indoor temperature and actual outdoor temperature to automatically switch to the most suitable cooling and heating mode to maintain optimal conditions and maximum comfort.

When It’s not so hot in the room anymorebecause it is night or because the air has been working for a while, the mode WindFree is activated automaticallysince the unit does not need to discharge as much air at such a speed.
