Sensibo Air Pro
Retrofit smart controller that makes any remote-controlled AC or heat pump smart.
Best for
Adding scheduling and geofencing to a mini-split or window AC without replacing it.
Skip if
You have a hardwired central system that a conventional smart thermostat can control.
What is Sensibo Air Pro?
The Sensibo Air Pro is not a thermostat in the wall-mounted sense. It is a small controller that learns your air conditioner or heat pump's infrared remote codes and then drives the unit itself, which means an existing mini-split, window unit or portable AC gains scheduling, geofencing and app control without being replaced or rewired. That retrofit approach is the whole product, and it is aimed at the enormous installed base of remote-controlled units that smart thermostats cannot touch. The Pro model adds an onboard air quality sensor measuring fine particulate matter alongside temperature and humidity, so the same device that controls the climate also reports on it. It supports geofencing that turns the AC off when the last person leaves and back on before they return, schedules, and integration with the major voice assistants and smart home platforms.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will it work with my air conditioner?
It works with air conditioners and heat pumps that are operated by an infrared remote control, which covers most mini-splits, window units and portable ACs. It does not control hardwired central systems that use a wall thermostat.
Does it need to see the AC unit?
Yes. It sends infrared commands, so it needs a clear line of sight to the unit's infrared receiver. Placement matters and is the most common setup issue.
What does the Pro model add?
The Pro adds an onboard air quality sensor measuring fine particulate matter, on top of the temperature and humidity sensing and control features shared with the standard model.
Is a subscription required?
Core control, scheduling and geofencing work without one. Some advanced automation features and extended historical data are tied to a paid tier, so check which features you need before buying.
