Samsung Showcases High-Efficiency Solutions at North America's Largest HVAC Exhibition

Various New Commercial and Residential Solutions Unveiled

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Pyeonghwa] Samsung Electronics will participate in the largest North American HVAC exhibition, the 'AHR Expo,' held in Atlanta, USA, from the 6th to the 8th (local time). They plan to target the North American HVAC market by showcasing several high-efficiency HVAC solutions.

The AHR Expo is an event hosted by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). Samsung Electronics has prepared an exhibition space of approximately 330㎡ (about 100 pyeong) here. The products on display include new commercial HVAC solutions, new system air conditioners, and a variety of eco-friendly Wind-Free air conditioner product lines such as wall-mounted and cassette-type (ceiling indoor unit) models.

The most eye-catching product is the 'DVM Hydro Unit.' When connected to the DVM outdoor unit system air conditioner, it can supply hot water up to 80℃ along with cooling and heating. It is efficient because it uses refrigerant used for cooling and heating to produce hot water, and operates electrically, reducing the user's burden compared to boilers.

Samsung Electronics will also exhibit the high-efficiency system air conditioner 'DVM S2 Max Heat,' which enhances cooling and heating performance and artificial intelligence (AI) functions. This model provides heating performance even at minus 25℃. By applying a large-capacity compressor, the maximum cooling capacity has been increased, and a new MCU (refrigerant flow direction control device) was developed to increase the number of connectable indoor units from 6 to 12. It also applies 'AI Rapid Cooling Control,' which quickly cools by learning the status of the outdoor unit installed outside and cooling patterns.

Additionally, they introduce wall-mounted and 1Way·4Way cassette-type Wind-Free air conditioner lineups. Among these, the wall-mounted Wind-Free air conditioner is characterized by enhanced eco-friendly functions. By applying the 'AI Saving Mode' of the SmartThings Energy Service, it reduces energy consumption by up to 20%. It also features a PM 1.0 filter that removes fine dust and a function that automatically adjusts the indoor temperature to the optimal state.

Choi Youngjun, Executive Director of Samsung Electronics’ Home Appliance Business Division, said, "Samsung Electronics is expanding its position in the commercial HVAC market with differentiated Wind-Free HVAC solutions," and added, "We will continue to target the North American HVAC market by introducing innovative high-efficiency products while expanding the application of energy-saving solutions through SmartThings."
