Yes, the setup process depends on the type of Fujitsu system you own. Most models follow the same steps of downloading the relevant anywAiR app, connecting the unit to your Wi-Fi and pairing your device. Your Fujitsu air conditioner Wi-Fi setup may differ slightly between single-room units, multi-room systems and central ducted models.

For single-room or wall mounted units, setup is simple. Connect through the app and follow the on-screen prompts. These units are often Wi-Fi ready or can be upgraded with an adaptor.

For multi-room or split systems, each indoor unit may need to be paired individually. This means repeating the connection process for each room zone.

For central or ducted air conditioning, setup may require a professional installer to support pairing. These systems sometimes use different Wi-Fi controllers to manage zones.

Once connected, you can control your comfort from your smart device.
