How to control air conditioning the ‘smarter way’ with Panasonic Conex Zone Controller

Panasonic launches the Conex Zone Controller, a new feature which controls air conditioning from smart devices.

With built-in Wi-Fi, the Conex Zone Controller can be mounted in several locations and can be connected to a ducted system.

The wired remote control or Panasonic’s Comfort Cloud app feature personalisation and control various air settings at a touch of a button. It also allows eight zones in the home to be managed individually.

“The pandemic has changed the way we live, with people spending more time at home whether working, studying, entertaining, relaxing or exercising. The new Conex Zone Controller supports this new flexible lifestyle by making it easier than ever to adjust air settings across multiple zones to suit different needs at different times of the day or week,” comments Panasonic Australia product marketing manager air conditioning Jack Tey.

“In fact, the Conex Zone Controller offers daily and weekly timers that can be set up for each zone, providing greater comfort from a regulated temperature as soon as you arrive home,” adds Tey.

“The timers also help reduce household energy consumption, which we know is important for Australian families. By setting a timer, you can have the air conditioning turn off when you leave the house and turn on as you return home, rather than leave it running while you’re out.”

Panasonic also introduces Smart E Box, a new feature that can be installed inside the ceiling and can be connected to one or multiple Damper kids—a technology that enables or restricts airflow to specific areas of the house via damper blade.

These blade adjustments (opening and closing in 10% increments) help to control room temperatures and save electricity.

A target temperature control setting switches temperature in targeted zones to make the whole family comfortable, as one room can be warmed or cooled without impacting the rest of the household’s air settings.

Panasonic’s nanoe X technology can be controlled thorough the Conex Zone Controller and Comfort Cloud App to purify your home’s air.

The technology inhibits indoor pollutants and odours in the air and on surfaces through the release of nano-sized, atomised water particles.

Additional features include:
Built-in Wi-Fi for App control via smart devices including both android and IOS smartphones or tablets.
Individual air flow control with damper technology
Ideal temperature control with optional up to five temperature sensing points
Control of Panasonic’s nanoe X purification technology
Voice control with Alexa and Google Assistant devices for basic functions like turn on/off ducted air conditioning, mode changes and temperature changes.

The Conex Zone Controller is available through Panasonic Air Conditioning distributors (excluding VIC/TAS) or Panasonic Air Conditioning dealers (VIC/TAS only) and requires a specialist installer to install this system.
