Airzone has announced the launch of its KNX-certified Aidoo Pro controller in the United States. This HVAC control solution enables U.S.-based electrical contractors, systems integrators, and mechanical contractors to integrate Inverter (VRF and mini-split) HVAC systems with KNX, the world’s leading open standard for home and building automation.
The arrival of the KNX-certified Aidoo Pro in the U.S. marks a significant step forward for open standards-based building control and automation in the country. KNX, a widely adopted global standard, has been used for over 30 years to integrate and control residential and commercial building systems worldwide. This open protocol allows more than 8000 certified devices from over 500 member manufacturers to communicate seamlessly, providing specifiers unmatched flexibility in product selection.
With the release of the Aidoo Pro KNX, U.S. integrators can now integrate Inverter (VRF and mini-split) systems with KNX-certified building technologies — such as lighting and shading — through a single, unified platform without the need for additional APIs or custom programming. Inverter HVAC systems rely on proprietary manufacturer protocols for internal commands and diagnostics: The Aidoo Pro enables bi-directional communication with all KNX-certified devices, giving installers full control of HVAC systems through the KNX interface.
Using KNX’s ETS software, contractors and integrators need only one tool to program and manage all devices, streamlining the integration process and minimizing the learning curve for specifiers and technicians. KNX and the Airzone Aidoo Pro are both fully interoperable with BACNet, enabling U.S. integrators to integrate existing HVAC systems in hospitality and light commercial settings with KNX-controlled lighting, security, or shading.
The Aidoo Pro KNX is shipping now in North America. Learn more about Airzone and Aidoo Pro at airzonecontrol.com. Explore KNX products and members in the United States and learn how you can become a certified KNX partner at knx.us.
