Do I need a Bridge?
For central HVAC systems with ductwork:
A Bridge is required for new home installations.
Every Flair home using Smart Vents requires a Bridge to serve as the central networking device. A centrally located Bridge covers ~4,000 sq ft homes. Layout and building materials impact range. Additional Bridges can be added to increase range.
For mini splits/ductless heat pumps:
A Bridge is recommended.
Want your Puck to be fully wireless? You need a Bridge. Comfortable with a wired connection? You don't need a Bridge.
If you're using Flair Pucks to run multiple head units, we recommend integrating a Bridge into your system for expedited setup and enhanced connectivity.
Note for existing home installations:
Using the Puck as the central networking device is fully supported. We recommend the Bridge if you need extended wireless range, have many connected devices, or want fully wireless (battery operated) Pucks.
What size Smart Vents do I need?
To determine your vent size, measure your duct openings.
Remember to measure ALL your duct openings as there can be different sized vents throughout your home.
- Remove your existing vent cover
- Measure the length and width of the duct opening
How many Smart Vents do I need?
A Room with Too Much Airflow
Have a room that’s too cold in the summer and too hot in the winter? Start off with a Puck/temperature sensor and a Smart Vent just for this room.
A Room with Too Little Airflow
Have a room that’s too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter? Place a Puck/temperature sensor in this room, and then use Pucks/temperature sensors and Smart Vents for the other rooms.
Uneven Temps Across Your Home
Do your room temperatures change depending on the time of day and season of year? You’ll need Pucks/temperature sensors and Smart Vents for every major room in your home.
How many Pucks do I need?
For central HVAC systems with ductwork:
Every room with Smart Vents needs a temperature sensor so Flair can keep track of temperature changes in the room. A temperature sensor can be a:
- Flair Puck, OR
- Integrated Smart Thermostat (ecobee, Honeywell [Wi-Fi], Nest, Carrier Infinity, or Bryant Evolution), OR
- Room Sensor*
*Flair integrates with ecobee SmartSensors and Honeywell Smart Room Sensors. Flair does not integrate with Nest Temperature Sensors. Room Sensors must be paired with the same brand of thermostat.
For mini splits/ductless heat pumps:
1 Puck is required for every mini split head unit.
