Stay comfortably cool
WindFree™ Cooling
Stay comfortable cool with WindFree™ Cooling. It gently and quietly disperses air through 23,000 micro air holes, so there is no unpleasant feeling of cold wind on your skin. Its advanced airflow also cools a wider and larger area more evenly. And it uses 77% less energy than Fast Cooling***.
* ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers) defines “Still Air” as air currents at speeds below 0.15m/s that lack the presence of cold drafts.** Tested on the AR12TXCAAWKNEU model. WindFree™ mode generates only 23dB of noise, compared to 26dB with the Samsung conventional model.*** Tested on the AR07B9350MA3 model by Intertek, a leading Total Quality Assurance provider to industries worldwide, comparing the power consumption of Fast Cooling mode vs. WindFree™ Cooling mode. Results may vary depending on the actual usage conditions.
Enjoy a good night’s sleep& save energy
WindFree™ Good Sleep
Get a really good night’s sleep every night. The WindFree™ Good Sleep mode creates the ideal climate for sleeping – without an unpleasant cold air flow. Its temperature control with WindFree™ cooling helps you fall asleep fast, sleep deeply and comfortably and wake up feeling fully refreshed
Cools you faster
Fast Cooling
Cool rooms quickly from corner to corner, so feel comfortable wherever you are. Digital Inverter technology cools the air 43% faster*. Its advanced design also has a 15% larger fan, 31% wider blade. So cool air is dispersed farther and wider**, reaching up to 15 meters.
* Tested on the AR12TXCAAWKEU model compared with the Samsung conventional AQ12EASER model, measuring the time taken to reduce the room temperature from 33°C to 25°C.** Tested on the AR24TXFCAWKNEU model.
Less ultrafinedust for cleaner, safer air
PM1.0 Filter
Protect yourself from inhaling bacteria and tiny particles. A PM1.0 Filter captures even ultrafine particles and sterilizes over 99% of bacteria*. It works twice as fast as a PM2.5 Filter**. Colored lights also show the current air quality. And the washable filter is cost-effective to maintain.
* Based on independent witness by Intertek. Removes 99% of certain bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Results may vary depending on environmental factors and individual use.** Removes 50% of 0.3µm size dust particles in a 30m² indoor area with 10 minutes operation per hour. Tested on the AR13TYAAAWKNST model. Results may vary depending on environmental factors and individual use.*** It can only be set using a mobile App.**** The PM 1.0 Filter line-up may differ between regions.

Simply wash inside to optimize performance
Freeze Wash
Maintain the optimum performance with the push of a button. Freeze Wash* quickly freezes the Heat Exchanger and then defrosts the ice. So it is washed in water, which removes dirt and 95% of microorganisms**. Finally, it dries up any moisture. And it alerts you when it is time for a clean***.
* The Freeze Wash function is only available on certain WindFree™ models.** Based on testing by Intertek.*** Only available on certain models that have Wi-Fi connectivity.

Automatically stays fresh and hygienic
3-step Auto Clean
Keep the inside of the air conditioner hygienic by doing nothing! After it’s been working, the Auto Clean function automatically dries the Heat Exchanger using a 3-step process. It removes moisture by blowing air for between 10 to 30 minutes***.
* Models without WindFree™ mode will operate with the blade open, if additional cleaning is required. ** Only available in WindFree™ models that have a humidity sensor.*** The Auto Clean time will vary depending on the condition of the air conditioner.
