Peak air con season and a new Samsung model for a better sleep

February 9, 2021 2 Comments

FacebookPinEmailTweet

While it felt like Sydney had forgotten it was summer over the Christmas holidays, itโ€™s now definitely hot again and those without air con would be feeling it! Weโ€™ve been lucky enough to be road testing the latest model from Samsung in our master bedroom and to say it is giving us a better nightโ€™s sleep would be an understatement. Seriously!

The Samsung GEO Wind-Free in our bedroom

Samsung released two new air conditioner models at the end of last year, the GEO AR5500 and award-winning GEO Wind-Free AR9500. Packed with intuitive features and smart innovations, the new range includes air filtration, dehumidification functions and in-built Wi-Fi features that make it ideal all year-round. Healthy air is a new concern (obsession!) for me in our home, but more on that later.

Designed to enhance your comfort levels, Samsungโ€™s innovative Wind-Free system disperses air gently and quietly through 23,000 micro air holes, leaving no unpleasant feeling of cold wind on your skin. Weโ€™re really noticing and enjoying this at night. Thereโ€™s no need to hide under the covers to escape a too-icy blast of air!

โ€œThe Wind-Freeย Airย Conditionerย range fromย Samsungย is a breakthrough for our portfolio ofย airย solutions that have been selected and calibrated to help make Australian homes more comfortable through our chilly winters and hot summers,โ€ says Mike Lilly, head of Product and Operationsย Airย Conditioning,ย Samsung Electronics Australia.

โ€œWith our new wind-free technology, people will barely even notice air movement in the room as it is cooled by these air conditioner units. Once the desired temperature is reached, the system disperses fresh air uniformly without the unpleasant blast of wind. With a focus on clean air and smart, efficient technologies, these air conditioners are perfectly suited for the Australian climate.โ€

Ideal for all types of households, the latest Samsung air conditioners consist of a large fan unit; large air intake area and a wide blade to help disperse conditioned air throughout the room. They take the guesswork out of settings and adjusts themselves according to room conditions, outside temperature and previous usage patterns with the inclusion of the AI Auto Cooling feature. This innovative feature learns how you use your unit and customises the setting to suit. Now thatโ€™s what we call smart home technology!

The Wind-Free AR9500โ€™s Good Sleep mode automatically adjusts the air flow direction and fan speed at a pre-set temperature and an operating time the user controls. Perfect for those hot humid nights, Dry Mode helps remove high humidity from the room and the Wind-Freeโ„ข model also uses a Humidity Sensor which accurately measures the humidity. 

The range also features Digital Inverter Boost technology which is designed to maintain the desired temperature with less fluctuation and reduce energy consumption by up to 73%. It also uses strong magnets made of Neodymium and includes a twin-tube muffler to minimise noise and vibration.

Our master bedroom definitely hasnโ€™t been the healthiest air space in our home and itโ€™s long been on our reno list to improve this. Our window is so old it doesnโ€™t open, so that will be being replaced this year! Throughout winter it was sometimes so cold in there, our windows were running with condensation and we had to use a dehumidifier (next winter weโ€™ll have a warmer room and our air conโ€™s built-in dehumidifier to help this).

The Wind-Freeโ„ข AR9500 model also boasts two Tri-Care filters which help keep the air you breathe hygienic, maintain the performance of the unit and can collect up to 98.8% of inactivate bacteria. Music to my ears!

We are so happy to have a much more comfortable and healthy master bedroom space, not to mention we sometimes have four-in-a-bed due to our boysโ€™ nighttime antics!

Disclosure: Samsung provided us with an air con unit in change for an honest review. This post is not paid for.

A glass shower screen is not the only option! In A glass shower screen is not the only option!

In this 80s villa reno, @trentinidesign took inspiration from an archway typical of the era and used it throughout the home.

The bathroom was transformed from a classic three-piece set up that included a shower, bath and vanity. Kathryn removed the bath and split the room in half and designed an arch to sit between the two zones. 

โ€œI wanted something spectacular. Rather than having a vanity with a piece of glass like you would typically see, I was really trying to push myself as a designer. It was costly but it worked out well and the feedback has been great."

One half of popular parenting podcast @wedonthavet One half of popular parenting podcast @wedonthavetimeforthis, turns out former Neighbours actor @gemma_peanut is even more multi-talented than we thought! Will you check out the joyful and colourful reno of her holiday home (and airbnb) @yo_caba_caba?!

Head over to the blog via link in bio to read all about why she went bold and full of pattern in this project, which is a stark contrast to her zen and neutral Northern Beaches abode.

There's also plenty of details about where things are from etc.

"Iโ€™m not an interior designer so I just chose what I liked and followed my gut. Ultimately this home has been an opportunity to explore my alter ego โ€“ it allowed me to do things that I wouldnโ€™t normally do.โ€

Not many friends in life fall into the unofficial Not many friends in life fall into the unofficial family category and they're a special gift. So ends three weeks with @danisteve81 who left her husband and son in the UK (I'm forever grateful they lent her to me!) to come and cheer me up and help me in the most practical ways after I spent Christmas and New Year in hospital. There were tears and I miss her so much already but how amazing to have had all that time together as adults. Such a rare treat and would never have happened without having been through something so challenging. Silver linings and all that. So many other friends have also been incredibly thoughtful and kind. There aren't many times I'd say this without cringing but I am 100% blessed!

I still cannot believe we have been friends since we were 12! 12! Are you still close with your childhood besties?
The renovation of this 80s beach shack @camillo_ho The renovation of this 80s beach shack @camillo_house is a work of art and while almost every surface was updated, the decision to keep the original slate floor was genius if you ask us. 

Owner @clarehillier__ says: "With its purple, pink, red and brown tones, the slate was the starting point for our interior palette."

Come and check out the before and afters via link in bio now and read the reno story. It's a real beauty.

And you can book it for your next holiday too!
