Visitors to the Samsung booth can experience first-hand the company’s leadership in HVAC technology, with the full Wind-Free cooling system lineup – comprising both residential and commercial units – showcased at the expo. Highlights include the Wind-Free 4Way Cassette, which was named a finalist in the Cooling segment of the 2019 AHR Expo Innovation Awards.

Samsung has also unveiled its complete range of ventilation systems specifically made for the North American market, including its Dedicated Outdoor Air System (DOAS) and Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV). The DOAS system is used in conjunction with a Samsung air conditioner and treats 100% of the outdoor air to match the desired indoor room temperature and humidity levels, thus improving indoor air quality and reducing the load on other HVAC equipment in a building. The ERV system ventilates a room by transferring the indoor air’s thermal energy outdoors. Users can enjoy clean air thanks to the system’s special structure, which blocks pollution sources from flowing back into the room. The system also keeps the room temperature constant, so users can save on the operating costs of heating and cooling.

In addition, the company debuted a system air conditioner that strengthens connectivity with other smart devices and is equipped with Open Connectivity Foundation (OCF)-based Wi-Fi technology. Samsung’s IoT technology has facilitated easy-to-use and energy-efficient HVAC solutions, allowing users to control or monitor their air conditioner inside the home with their voice alone via Family Hub.

The Wind-Free 4Way Cassette harnesses a two-step operation that first lowers the room’s temperature to reach the desired conditions, then utilizes the unit’s 15,700 micro holes to gently and evenly disperse cold air in order to maintain a cool environment without wind.

Samsung’s Wind-Free residential air conditioners were also on display at AHR 2019, with the company strengthening its market leadership by expanding the units’ capacities from 9,000 BTU/h, 12,000 BTU/h, to 18,000 BTU/h, 24,000 BTUh.

At its booth at the AHR 2018 Expo, Samsung will provide visitors with a special Wind-Free unit* experience demonstration, which highlights how the advanced cooling technology creates still air to cool a space, and utilizes thousands of micro holes to gently disperse cold air. The engaging experience will allow visitors to feel the difference between standard cooling technology and Wind-Free advanced cooling technology.

Samsung will also highlight its full line of Wind-Free units for residential and commercial applications, in particular 4Way Cassette. 4Way Cassette, which will be exhibited for the first time, has a blade up to 31% larger than conventional products and a widening swing angle of 10°, which can deliver wind up to 5m – around double that of conventional products. In addition, 4Way Cassette is equipped with a motion detection sensor (MDS) to detect the position of the person and automatically adjust the direction of the wind, but also is able to be utilized even in the absence of a person.

Samsung will also showcase expansions to current product lines such as the Max Heat series and DVM S Eco which support advanced heating performance and efficiency at -13°F. All Max Heat series were certified by the US Environmental Protection Agency as ‘Energy Star’ and boast excellent energy efficiency.

In addition to these innovations, Samsung’s booth will also feature Samsung’s series of new fresh air systems, Fresh Access, -40° low ambient cooling systems, dedicated outdoor air systems, energy recovery ventilation systems, along with notable products such as the 360 Cassette, DVM Chiller, and Hospitality Management Solutions (HMS).

*The Wind-Free unit delivers an air current that is under 0.15 m/s while in Wind-Free mode.  Air velocity that is below 0.15 m/s is considered “still air” as defined by the ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers).
