Yet another major VRF HVAC manufacturer finds tremendous value in CoolAutomation’s solution that allows Home Automation and Air Conditioning systems to work as one. Following a series of rigorous tests and evaluations, Blue Star, a VRF HVAC manufacturer in India announces its successful integration with CoolAutomation’s CoolMasterNet.

This development enables Blue Star installers the ability to partner with Home Automation integrators in order to significantly simplify the integration of VRF HVAC communication network with a Home Automation control system. As a result, Blue Star customers will now be able to control their Air Conditioning systems through a single controller.

Commercial refrigeration company

Blue Star is India's air conditioning and commercial refrigeration company, with annual revenues of over US$ 682 million. They have a network of 32 offices, 5 modern manufacturing facilities, 2,800 employees, and 2,900 channel partners. One out of every three commercial building in India uses a Blue Star product.

Home Automation control systems and Blue Star HVAC communication networks use different languages to communicate and are therefore unable to speak with one another. The only way to overcome this barrier is through the utilization of a universal gateway that can communicate with both the HVAC communication network as well as the Home Automation control system. Blue Star’s DVRF Modbus Converter is all that is needed to merge the BlueStar HVAC with Home Automation.
