A provider of smart home HVAC control solutions, Flair, has launched Bridge Pro, a cutting-edge Staged Heating (Integrated Controls) communication and control interface between ductless heat pumps (DHPs), boilers and electric baseboards.
Powered by Flair's innovative hvacOS platform, Bridge Pro delivers a simple, flexible, cost-effective and energy-efficient approach to staged heating.
It directly integrates to boilers or electric baseboards via 24 VAC and Dry/Wet contacts to support up to seven heat zones.
Configured and managed in the Flair App, it enables full control of staged heating systems and rapid installation without C-Wire pulls.
Flair founder & CEO, Daniel Myers, said the Bridge Pro represents a major step forward in staged heating control.
“By combining Flair's advanced hvacOS technology with the simplicity and versatility of industry standard equipment interfaces, we're providing HVAC professionals with unmatched solutions to enhance comfort and efficiency for homeowners, while reducing installation time and complexity,” Myers said.
Key features of the Flair Bridge Pro include:
- 24 VAC and RS-485 BUS HVAC equipment interfaces.
- Dry/Wet contacts to support up to seven boiler or electric baseboard zones.
- Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and 915 MHz communication interfaces for fully wireless solutions.
- Simplified installation without requiring C-Wire pulls for boiler or baseboard thermostats.
- Flair Puck Pro or Smart Thermostats integration to manage DHP heat staging.
The Bridge Pro can also provide direct access to Integrated Controls rebates and significant additional incentives for the purchase of DHPs in many markets.
