Customer Impressed or Not? YORK’s New Simplicity Smart Controls Get Demoed

Earlier last month, a few cfm Distributors, Inc team members helped a local mechanical contractor put on a 3-day customer appreciation event, and were asked to talk about “any new technologies or products from YORK”. The topic? It was a no-brainer: YORK’s NEW Simplicity Smart controls and Fault Detection & Diagnostics. The cfm team arrived with a YORK Direct Fit™ packaged unit, iPads, & laptops eager to discuss this exciting new technology.

The reactions we received

I remember my initial reaction to seeing this new technology — I wrote about it here in, “Is the future of Fault Detection & Diagnostics really here?”  The future is here, and people were just as impressed as I was about the new Simplicity Smart controls and Fault Detection & Diagnostics.  There were well over a hundred building owners, operators and technicians at the US Engineering event that came through over the course of the 3-day event.  As people learned about this new technology available by YORK, a couple of the comments we received were, “Wow that’s awesome!” and, “We could really use that in our building!”.  By the end of the 3-days, we weren’t sure if there was anyone who hadn’t been impressed by YORK’s Simplicity Smart controls and Fault Detection & Diagnostics.

What Simplicity Smart Controls can do for you

So, what is this new technology? Fault Detection & Diagnostics is an add on board with temperature and pressure sensors factory installed on each refrigerant circuit. This allows a building owner or technician to view all of the unit’s “vitals” to assure trouble free operation or to troubleshoot the unit. These “vitals” include, but are not limited to, supply/return/ambient temperatures, superheat, subcooling, fault codes, overcharged/undercharged warnings, economizer details, and the list goes on.

Simplicity Smart controls goes where you go

Oh, and the best part? This can all be accessed anywhere in the world with your smartphone or tablet. Pretty amazing, isn’t it?  Let us know what you think about the new Simplicity Smart
controls and Fault Detection & Diagnostics technology in the comments below.  If you’d like additional information, feel free to give us call @ 1-800-322-9675.  I’d also recommend checking out this printable brochure YORK has made available.
