Overview
If you wish to toggle your Flair System between Auto and Manual tap the System button in the Control Bar at the top of the Flair app. There are two System options: Auto and Manual.
Flair's automation will only function when your Flair System setting is Auto.
The Manual setting is generally used temporarily for testing.
Manual Widgets
When your Flair System is set to Manual the Flair app displays widgets that allow you to manually operate your Smart Vents and Mini Splits.
Below you can see two examples of Flair widgets. On the left is a Vent widget with a Vent slider. On the right is a mini split widget with controls to issue commands to the mini split.
Note: When in Manual it may take up to 30 seconds for a Smart Vent or mini split to respond to commands.
Dry Mode for Mini Splits
For mini splits that support it, Flair will allow setting Mode to "Dry" when the System is set to Manual. This will appear under the Mode menu in the mini split widget. The modes supported by Flair are Auto, Heat, Cool, Fan, and Dry. Modes not supported by the mini split will not appear in the menu.
For mini splits that do not offer a Dry Mode you can still accomplish some dehumidification by running the mini split in COOL mode with the FAN on its lowest setting. This mimics Dry mode as it lowers the mini split's fan speed so that the humid air moves more slowly over the cooling coil and loses more moisture than it otherwise would.
