Wall Controller SAMSUNG Touchscreen MWR-SH12UN | Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, South Shore & North Shore

The Samsung MWR-SH12UN is for people who want to control their Samsung air conditioner or heat pump with a fingertip, without hunting for the remote or working through complicated menus. This wired touchscreen wall controller brings the essential controls together on a clean, clear surface: on and off, temperature, operating mode, fan speed and louvre position. It also gives you access to Samsung-specific functions such as WindFree mode and quiet mode. Its big advantage: according to Samsung, it is compatible with current and previous Samsung models, which makes it an excellent upgrade for a system that is already in place.

Simple touch control for Samsung equipment, new or older

Many owners of Samsung wall-mounted heat pumps, cassettes or ducted systems installed a few years ago want to modernize their controls without replacing the equipment. The MWR-SH12UN meets that need. It connects to indoor units in the RAC (residential), CAC (light commercial), FJM (Free Joint Multi multi-zone), DVM S (variable refrigerant flow) and DVM Chiller FCU (fan coil unit) ranges, in current generations as well as earlier ones. Before every installation, our technicians confirm the exact model of your unit and any interface accessories it may require.

WindFree comfort, right on the wall

On Samsung units that offer it, WindFree mode cools the room by diffusing air gently, without a draft aimed at the occupants. With the MWR-SH12UN, this mode is activated directly on the touchscreen. It is a useful setting in bedrooms, offices and living rooms, where a jet of cold air quickly becomes uncomfortable. Quiet mode rounds out this approach by reducing the indoor unit's noise, for example at night.

Timer and Outing function

The MWR-SH12UN does not offer a weekly schedule, but it does include a timer that starts or stops the unit after a delay you choose. The Outing function holds a protective temperature when you leave the house or the office, then lets you get back to your usual setting quickly. For fully automated operation based on the days of the week, the advanced MWR-WG01UN controller, with its 7-day schedule and dual setpoint, is the model to consider. We are happy to help you choose between the two based on how you use the space.

Practical everyday functions

Several details make this controller pleasant to live with. The louvre position can be adjusted from the wall, so you can direct warm air downward in winter and cool air upward in summer. The filter reminder tells you when it is time to clean the indoor unit's filters. The error display shows the code sent by the system, useful information for our technicians when you call us. Finally, the key lock prevents unwanted changes, an asset in a store, a waiting room or a child's bedroom.

A more accurate temperature reading

The controller has a built-in temperature sensor. In many rooms, the indoor unit is mounted high on the wall, where the air is warmer than at the occupants' level. Depending on the configuration, the reading at the wall can be used as the reference and make the regulation more representative of what you actually feel, especially in heating mode.

Installation and commissioning by AirGreen

We start by checking your equipment: the range, model and configuration of the indoor unit. We then choose the controller's location with you. Ideally, it goes on an interior wall, away from a sunny window, an electric baseboard or an exterior door, so the sensor reads the room's real temperature. The control cable is carefully routed to the indoor unit, with as little impact as possible on the wall finish.

Once it is connected, we configure the controller, set the reference sensor and test each mode: heating, cooling, dehumidification, fan and WindFree if the unit supports it. We then show you how to use the timer, the Outing function and the key lock.

Saving energy in winter

In Québec, a wall-mounted heat pump works hard from December to March. A few habits help reduce consumption without giving up comfort. Use the Outing function when you leave for a few days, to protect the house without heating it needlessly. Point the louvres downward in heating mode so the warm air reaches the floor.

Maintenance

Clean the touchscreen with a soft cloth, without abrasive products. Follow the filter reminder: clogged filters reduce airflow and the unit's efficiency. If an error code appears, write it down before contacting us, which speeds up the diagnosis. An annual maintenance visit by our technicians also lets us check the controller's connections.

In a store or a waiting room, use the key lock once the settings are in place: the temperature stays constant from one day to the next, and staff no longer have to undo changes made by visitors.
