Which is the best air conditioning Wi-Fi controller on the market
With
many home appliance devices now becoming controllable via internet based
remote controllers on smart phones and tablets the air conditioning
market seems to have been slow to catch on with a fully integrated unit.
A lot of heating manufacturers already have integrated Wi-Fi so why not
on air conditioning? Many of the big names in air conditioning are using
a third-party controller such as Fujitsu and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries
air conditioning who use a Intesis based system with a proven security
record. These types of air conditioning Wi-Fi controller unit are of a
IR control style which means they sit remotely to the unit, have their
own power source and work like a TV remote controller in the sense that
the IR transmitter needs to be pointed at the receiver. The
air conditioning manufacturers that have a retro-fit integrated Wi-Fi
control unit are Daikin air conditioning and Mitsubishi Electric Air
Conditioning who use their own self certified unit which they
manufacture themselves. The Mitsubishi electric air conditioning
MELCloud is by far the best of the main manufacturers as it an
integrated unit which plugs onto a socket on the main indoor PCB of
the Mitsubishi electric indoor unit. As of 2016 none of the main
manufactures have Wi-Fi as standard. The only manufacturer doing Wi-Fi
as standard are the Chinese manufactured Midea air conditioning unit's
which now come standard. How secure these units are is a essentially
down to the server the App runs through, most Wi-Fi control
devices and remote access systems usually require a Proxy server for the
transfer of data, acting as a third party for your commands and data
retrieval. Some apps from lesser known manufacturers in the past have
had a tendency to request unnecessary data from your smart device such
as full contact's list. Recently an entire far eastern manufacturer of
CCTV remote access cameras was hacked to the extent that they were
controlled remotely by a hacker to attack other servers in a denial of
service attack. The main air conditioning manufacturers are most likely
at this stage still working on the security aspect of the technology
before releasing a fully integrated Wi-Fi control as standard or they
are waiting for the technology to get cheaper. The Mitsubishi Electric Air Conditioning unit's MAC-5571F MELCLOUD WiFi Connection Interface:
