Sensibo Releases Smarter Air Conditioning

Sensibo has launched Sensibo Airbend, a new software allowing hotels to manage air conditioning and air quality monitoring devices in bulk, reducing heating and cooling costs, while ensuring healthy air quality for their guests. Sensibo Airbend can lead to savings of over 40 percent on energy bills by optimized monitoring and management of all air conditioning (AC) in the hotel.

Sensibo Airbend is a powerful and smart AC management solution that allows hotels to take control of their energy usage to reduce their operational costs and help them meet their sustainability goals. Airbend allows operation managers to remotely manage all of their units and set smart rules and parameters to optimize AC usage in individual rooms; keeping guests comfortable, while reducing energy consumption.

“For ten years, Sensibo has worked hard to promote our vision of Beyond Air Con for the private home, helping more than 200,000 homes save energy and the climate worldwide”, said Ran Roth, CEO and Co-Founder of Sensibo. 

“Now we are launching Sensibo Airbend for Hotels which will help the hospitality industry manage the energy consumption of their AC units with insights, data, sensors and AI along with improving the climate experience for guests”.

There has always been a desire to increase visitor comfort while reducing costs. A few unique challenges lie with air conditioning management, such as managing dozens of separate units, the lack of control once guests are in the room, and the fact that energy waste from ACs can account for a big portion of their energy bill. 

In addition, hotel management needs to preserve hundreds of physical remote controls, struggle to manage units in different locations and maintain the health of AC units in order to reduce maintenance costs. Sensibo’s Airbend is compliant with recent regulations in certain EU countries requiring various buildings to limit the AC temperature to minimise energy consumption.

Between running air conditioners when rooms are empty and guests misusing air conditioning units when they’re in the room, lots of energy waste occurs due to air conditioning mismanagement, leading to unnecessarily high energy bills.

Inefficient air conditioning units draw a sizable amount of energy, emitting Co2. Hotels spend 40 percent of their energy consumption on heating and cooling. Now, Sensibo offers a unified platform that allows hotels to manage all their devices from one centralised dashboard, reducing emissions, reaching ESG goals and saving money in the process.
