Samsung's innovative WindFree™ technology

In accordance with the definition of ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers), still air is an air flow moving at a speed of 0.15 m/s or slower, without creating cold drafts.

WindFree™ Cooling

Samsung's innovative WindFree™ technology is the only system that uses "still air" to create an evenly cool and comfortable environment across a whole occupied zone.¹

Samsung Presents. There is a closeup of a cat’s ear and its hair blowing in the wind. The camera shifts to the back of a cat in a room. The cat turns around. Hey! It’s time to WindFree™. A strong wind blows the cat’s hair from the front and pieces of paper flying in the background. Too Windy? The camera shifts to another room. A wall-mounted WindFree AC is on, sending cold air downward. A woman relaxes in a hammock, enjoying the cool air. COOOL. Super cooling without wind. The scene shifts to a bedroom where a woman is sound asleep. Quiet. 23dB(A) low noise. Next, a man relaxes on a couch with a dog. Saving 77% energy WindFree vs Fast Cooling. The camera shifts to a closeup of a WindFree AC. The word On is highlighted. Cool WindFree Everywhere. The many colorful circles with different people, city landscapes, and animals.

Why you need WindFree™

True comfort

WindFree™ technology creates a much gentler and milder air flow, evenly distributed through tens of thousands of micro air holes, so people in the room feel almost no wind - just comfortable cool air.

WindFree mode turns on and the cat’s hair stops blowing. A close-up of micro air hole appears.

Fast cooling

Cool rooms quickly from corner to corner, so you’re always comfortable. Digital Inverter Boost technology cools the air 43% faster². Its advanced design also has a 15% larger fan, 18% wider inlet and a 31% wider blade. So cool air is dispersed farther and wider³, reaching up to 15 meters.

Energy/Cost saving

When operating in WindFree™ mode, it consumes 77% less energy than Fast Cooling mode⁴. So you can stay comfortably cool without worrying about your electricity bills.

There is a closeup of a blade on a wall-mounted WindFree™. WindFree mode is turned on and the blade starts to close. The camera zooms into the micro holes then shifts to a man relaxing on the couch with a dog. The number 77% is comparing to energy savings between WindFree™ and Fast Cooling modes.

Less noise

The low-speed WindFree™ Cooling features a quiet operation that minimized ambient noise, so it generates much less noise⁵.

A wall-mounted WindFree AC is on. When WindFree mode is off, it is noisy at 80 dB. When WindFree mode is on, it decreases to 23 dB and becomes quieter. A woman and a cat sleep soundly below.

Convenient control

SmartThings

Control the temperature in your home anytime and anywhere. Using the SmartThings App⁶ you can remotely control and monitor the air conditioner with just a touch. Or simply tell the Bixby AI system⁷ what you want and it does it. It even suggests the best settings.

The SmartThings app is onscreen. Around the phone are different rooms with separate WindFree ACs. In one, a woman wakes up and stretches in bed under a WindFree 4-way cassette. In another, a WindFree AC is mounted on a wall. Finally, a WindFree 1-way cassette AC is mounted on the ceiling. Onscreen is SmartThings’s Discover feature, controlling the three ACs.

Easily monitor energy use

SmartThings Energy

Control energy usage to reduce your bills. SmartThings Energy⁸ lets you easily check your power consumption⁹. If the estimated amount¹⁰ exceeds your target, it adjusts the energy usage of all smart appliances. When the air conditioner is on it draws the blinds and alerts you if you go out.

Use 20% less energy¹¹

SmartThings AI Energy Mode

Monitor and reduce the air conditioner’s energy use. AI Energy mode lets you check the power use and allows you to estimate your electricity bill. By learning your usage patterns and analyzing the room conditions, AI Energy mode can reduce energy use by up to 20% by adjusting the temperature and compressor frequency.

Cold air disperses downward from a wall-mounted WindFree AC and butterflies are beneath it. There is a closeup of a smartphone with the SmartThings app open onscreen and numbers to indicate energy savings.
