Emerson’s Sensi Predict Good HVAC Wins 2021 Edison Award
Edison Award recognizes Emerson’s innovative technology to protect HVAC systems and further digital transformation in homes
Emerson (NYSE: EMR), a leading provider of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) technologies, today announced that its Sensi ™ Predict intelligent HVAC solution has received the Silver Edison Award in the Innovative Services – AI Applications category, providing peace of mind that it brings to consumers.
The award recognizes Emerson’s Sensi Predict as a 21st century home heating, ventilation and air conditioning maintenance solution that shares real-time system insights to help homeowners monitor performance and prevent unexpected problems. The Edison Awards, named after inventor Thomas Alva Edison, recognize and honor the world’s best innovations that are at the forefront of new product and service development, marketing and human-centered design.
Emerson’s Sensi Predict uses 10 sensors to analyze the performance of heating and cooling systems, one of the most expensive assets in a home. Sensi Predict technology provides real-time monitoring and alerts homeowners and their contractors when their HVAC systems are not operating at full efficiency. Conveniently accessed via a smartphone, these alerts can help predict and prevent problems and, along with corrective maintenance, reduce operating costs and extend the life of HVAC systems.
“Our heating and cooling systems are critical to the health and comfort of our families and the environment, but we have so little insight into their day-to-day performance,” said Jamie Froedge, executive president of Emerson’s Commercial & Residential Solutions business. “We are honored to be recognized for this innovative technology that provides both awareness and peace of mind when it comes to an integral part of our home.”
Fault detection and diagnosis are new standards in HVAC technology, and Emerson, with Sensi Predict, has taken responsibility for bringing this innovation to the housing market. Both homeowners and contractors can take advantage of the technology, which provides a seamless and simple user experience. For home builders, Sensi Predict is quick and affordable to help differentiate their value proposition and service offering to homeowners, and provides enhanced credibility to stand out and build trust.
The story goes on
The Edison Awards highlight high-level new product innovation, service development, and human-centered design. The finalists for the Edison Awards were selected as the “best of the best” by 3,000 of the world’s top business executives, academics and innovation professionals.
“We were very impressed with the level of collaboration and discovery in this year’s entries,” said Frank Bonafilia, Executive Director of Edison Universe. “Somehow, despite the unprecedented challenges of this global pandemic, companies around the world have figured out how to work safely and intelligently while still innovating at an award-winning level.”
