What Can Google Assistant control in Flair?

Using Google Assistant, you can do the following:

  • Adjust the temperature for a room
  • Check the current temperature in a room
  • Turn off a room (this will turn off any mini splits, window units or portables - and/or set rooms with Smart Vents to Inactive).

To adjust the temperature in a room, say, "Set the <room name> to <set point> degrees".

To find out the temperature in a room, say, "What's the temperature in the <room name>?".

To turn off a room, say, "Set the <room name> to off". Google Assistant will either turn off all the mini splits, window units or portables in that room or close the Smart Vents.

Sync Flair rooms in Google Home

After authorizing Google Assistant to use Flair, Google Home will import all your Flair rooms.

Your Flair Rooms will sync with any of your Google Home rooms. If you choose, you can assign your Flair rooms to different Google Home rooms.

Use Google Home to Control Flair

Once your Flair rooms are imported into Google Home, you can click into a room to adjust the temperature and mode.

Note: Mode can only be adjusted for a room containing a single mini split. This excludes multi-head mini splits.
