Samsung Electronics said on the 3rd it will participate in the AHR Expo, North America's largest HVAC exhibition, held in Las Vegas from the 2nd to the 4th (local time).
The AHR Expo, organized by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, is an event where about 1,800 global companies showcase their latest products and technologies every year.
At this exhibition, Samsung Electronics prepared a 350㎡ (about 100 pyeong) booth and unveiled the Hylex (Hylex) R454B outdoor unit, which applies inverter technology to residential unitary systems widely used in North America, and the Mono R32 (Mono R32) lineup of residential EHS products using heat pump technology that provides high-efficiency heating and hot water in various climate conditions.
It also introduced the DVM S2+, a large-capacity system air conditioner that learns the surrounding environment based on AI to provide optimized solutions, and the Bespoke AI WindFree air conditioner.
These products use refrigerants that reduce the global warming potential (GWP) by up to 78%, taking into account the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)'s refrigerant transition regulations.
Samsung Electronics also set up a space to experience SmartThings Pro, an AI-based B2B solution that provides energy efficiency and integrated space management functions tailored to various space types and purposes such as residential spaces, offices, and commercial buildings.
In a space designed like a real home, visitors can experience automation features such as SmartThings linked to a door lock detecting a user's return home to automatically turn on lights and open curtains, the Quick Remote feature that lets users easily control nearby appliances with a mobile phone without a separate remote, and the AI Energy Mode feature that monitors electricity usage to optimize power consumption.
In 2024, Samsung Electronics established a joint venture with the U.S. HVAC company Lennox to target the North American HVAC market. Last year, it acquired FläktGroup, Europe's largest HVAC equipment company, expanding its global HVAC competitiveness.
