Source 1 has teamed up with Boldr, giving contractors an easy way to upgrade every ductless mini-split install with a modern smart thermostat experience.

The Boldr Smart Controller

The Boldr Smart Controller replaces OEM remotes with a real smart thermostat experience — no wiring to the equipment required. 

It mounts on the wall or sits on a dock, connects wirelessly to the mini-split, and is set up through the Boldr app in under five minutes.

With it, homeowners can:

  • Control their system from anywhere
  • See energy costs in real time
  • Reduce energy consumption
  • Never lose a remote again

It also works with the smart-home platforms customers already use, including Google Home, Apple Home, Samsung SmartThings, Amazon Alexa, Home Assistant, and Matter.

Works with any mini-split brand

The Smart Controller is compatible with all ductless mini-split brands, including Mitsubishi, Daikin, Fujitsu, Carrier, LG, Gree, Samsung, Bosch, Hitachi, Haier, Trane, Lennox and many more. 

That means one Controller covers virtually any ductless install or service call.

Under the hood, it also brings thermostat-grade intelligence to ductless systems that never had it: Comfort Zone AI to cut temperature swings and overshoot, multi-zone conflict resolution to prevent nuisance callouts, presence sensing that adjusts comfort automatically, and energy and cost monitoring accurate to within 98–99%, with no separate meter needed.

Stay connected to the customer relationship

The value continues long after the installation is complete.

Every Smart Controller installed through the Boldr Pro app is added to your contractor dashboard, giving your business one place to view and manage the systems you have installed. Features include fleet visibility, maintenance alerts, deadband correction, multi-zone conflict resolution, and remote system-management tools.

Custom Pro branding keeps your company’s name and contact details visible to the customer, helping establish your business as the contractor of record for the life of the system. When the customer needs maintenance, an upgrade, or new equipment, your business remains front and centre.

Each Pro installation is also supported by an exclusive five-year warranty and free live support from the Boldr team, Monday through Friday.
