You’re in control of your home climate with AirTouch 2+. Featuring a new smart and easy to use interface design, you can now use your smart device to control AC mode, temperature and fan speed of reverse cycle ducted air conditioning units connected to your AirTouch system at home, as well as the air volume for individual rooms. While you can control your system with your smart device over your WiFi network with internet connectivity at home, now you’ll never have to worry about leaving it turned on when you are out and about, as you can check and turn it on or off, and set a timer for when you get home remotely over the internet from anywhere. Requires an AirTouch 2+ system installed by a suitable air conditioning professional.
