Havell’s India has come out with a new range of intelligent fans to be introduced as a part of its 2019 line-up.
The fast moving electrical goods company, which is a relatively later entrant into the fan market, has already garnered a share of about 17 per cent in terms of value in the Rs 7,000 crore country’s fan industry.
The company, which demonstrated its new range of smart and Internet of Things connected fans, is looking at catering to a generation of customers looking forward to such fans that add to convenience.
Saurabh Goel, President, Havell’s India, said, “Havell’s has been in the forefront of using technology and out new range of intelligent and stylish fans are set for launch in Summer of 2019. Apart from providing greater comfort they will revolutionise the fan industry with their features.”
Apart from the new range, which includes eight new fans, the company has also introduced a retrofit option that converts the existing fans into IoT devices, which can be controlled remotely using mobile phones and remote controls.
Developed in the company R&D centre and produced at the Haridwar manufacturing facility, which has a capacity to churn out 70 lakh units annually, they are also highly energy efficient.
Enticer smart is an IoT based smart fan with a base version having a retro fit module. Apart from enabling one to control, it remotely connects through a mobile app, and Wi-Fi connectivity, the fans have capability to adjust its speed based on temperature and humidity in the room.
Compatible to Alexa, Google Home
These fans would be compatible Alexa and Google Home connectivity applications, Goel explained.
The fans come with a number of styles and combinations including under light version. The R&D initiatives at the company have helped it make these fans extremely energy efficient. From 80 watts of power consumption, it has been brought down to below 40 W and to 26 W, making them most energy efficient.
“We have adequate capacity and continue to expand when required. Every critical component is manufactured and assembled in house,” he explained.
