KOVA Comfort Intelligent HVAC is an innovative, AI-powered system that seamlessly integrates into any interior space and aligns with users' daily routines. Embracing the rise of artificial intelligence, KOVA Comfort leverages machine learning to analyze behavioral, environmental, and unit-specific occupancy inputs to optimize comfort and energy usage in each living environment. With a minimal footprint, sleek design, and elegant profile, the compact system is a cutting-edge solution for multifamily, hospitality, and residential properties.

While traditional HVAC systems are prone to inefficient downtime and excessive energy use, KOVA Comfort addresses these challenges by combining existing energy efficiency capacities with AI and a variable-speed compressor, significantly minimizing the energy needed to meet heating or cooling loads. KOVA Comfort is designed for installation between standard vertical stud walls, eliminating the loss of valuable unit square footage inherent in traditional HVAC systems. The slim form factor, along with the innovative wall-integrated sleeve and quick-connect mechanism, ensures fast and easy installation, leading to reduced labor and material costs.
