Ordering PeakSmart signal receivers
A signal receiver must be fitted to an air conditioner to make it PeakSmart Active. It's fitted either at the same time the air conditioner is installed or later as a retrofit, and only takes around 5 to 10 minutes to fit. Here's a full list of PeakSmart models.
The signal receiver can also be retrofitted to a previously installed PeakSmart capable air conditioner. The signal receiver can respond to Audio Frequency Load Control (AFLC) signals sent through the electricity network (similar to economy tariff control of hot water systems and pool pumps etc). The signal temporarily reduces the compressor’s electricity consumption.
Different PeakSmart signal receivers are used across our network. So installers need to make sure they fit the correct signal receiver for their customers location. If the wrong signal receiver is installed we won’t be able to control the air conditioner during a PeakSmart event and the customers cashback application may be rejected.
