Samsung Electronics today announced its ongoing participation in Mostra Convegno Expocomfort (MCE) 2026, a leading international trade fair for heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration (HVAC+R), renewable energy and water solutions, to be held March 24–27 at Fiera Milano in Milan. Samsung is showcasing a broad range of HVAC innovations spanning residential, commercial and smart building applications — including, for the first time, a joint display featuring key products from FläktGroup, the leading European HVAC company acquired by Samsung last year.

“Samsung has been steadily expanding its presence in the HVAC industry, bringing new innovations to customers every year,” said Sean Lim, Executive Vice President and Head of the Air Solution Business Team for Digital Appliances (DA) Business at Samsung Electronics. “At MCE 2026, we are showing how our approach translates into better living — and we invite everyone to come and experience it firsthand.”

At MCE 2026, Samsung has organized its booth into dedicated product and service zones — including EHS, WindFree™, Chiller and DVM areas, along with a SmartThings service zone — demonstrating how its solutions work together to support a more integrated and comfortable environment.

Next-Generation Residential Comfort With Bespoke AI WindFree Pro

At its booth, Samsung is presenting its latest Bespoke AI WindFree Pro air conditioner, featuring a refreshed exterior design that complements modern living spaces. To elevate everyday comfort, it offers an expanded range of personalized cooling experiences, building on Samsung’s WindFree™ heritage.

At the heart of the model is Motion Wind — a three-blade system¹ that creates seven tailored airflow patterns,² ranging from powerful Max Wind for rapid cooling to gentle WindFree™ for draft-free comfort. The two AI-driven modes³ are AI Direct Wind, which follows the user with targeted airflow for immediate cooling, and AI Indirect Wind, which keeps the user comfortable without blowing air directly onto them.

The model also features AI Fast & Comfort Cooling,⁴ which analyzes indoor and outdoor temperature, humidity and room size to automatically activate the right cooling mode — Fast Cooling for instant temperature reduction, WindFree™ for comfortable draft-free cooling and Dry Comfort for pleasant dehumidification without cold air. Users can also activate AI Energy Mode via the SmartThings app, which analyzes usage patterns and environmental conditions to reduce energy consumption by up to 30%.⁵

All-in-One Heat Pump System for Year-Round Home Comfort

In the EHS zone, Samsung is spotlighting an all-in-one heat pump system that combines a single outdoor unit with an indoor unit (EHS ClimateHub) to support space heating, cooling and domestic hot water through both air and water in one integrated system.

The system enables flexible, year-round residential operation, supporting simultaneous functions such as water-based space heating with air heating, water cooling with air cooling or hot water supply combined with air heating — delivering adaptable comfort across seasons. The fully integrated design also enables efficient heat recovery; rather than discharging heat absorbed during cooling outdoors, the system can redirect it for water-based space heating or domestic hot water production — and vice versa. This results in a COP of up to 8.2,⁶ making it a highly energy-efficient solution for year-round residential comfort.

Strengthening HVAC Solutions for Various Commercial Needs

Samsung is also showcasing a broad lineup of commercial HVAC solutions, including DVM systems and chiller offerings tailored to diverse building requirements.

This includes Samsung’s latest VRF system, named DVM S2+. The new DVM S2+ is equipped with R32 refrigerant in line with global standards, as well as built-in safety measures that ensure peace of mind. DVM S2+ also comes with on-device AI features that add convenience.⁷ For example, AI Adaptive Control⁸ adjusts the outdoor unit’s performance based on its surroundings to help reduce energy usage by up to 25%⁹ under certain conditions.

Another key highlight at MCE 2026 is the inclusion of solutions from FläktGroup, a leading European HVAC specialist whose acquisition has strengthened Samsung’s applied HVAC capabilities — particularly in large-scale facilities such as data centers. FläktGroup’s lineup for the event includes core products such as air handling units (AHUs), chilled beams, fan coil units (FCUs) and other air terminal solutions, demonstrating expanded capabilities across commercial and industrial environments.

Connected Control for Daily Comfort

Samsung is demonstrating how connected services can simplify HVAC management across homes and businesses. Visitors can explore usage scenarios enabled by SmartThings Pro, including streamlined monitoring, integrated device control and energy insights designed to provide comfort and operational efficiency.

Samsung remains committed to expanding its HVAC business globally through continued innovation across residential, commercial and smart building applications. Visitors to Samsung’s booth at MCE 2026 can explore the latest products and connected solutions, engage with representatives and experience Samsung’s vision for smarter, more comfortable environments.
