In addition, the TCL Air Conditioner Guangzhou Smart Manufacturing Base boasts the world’s only AI-empowered intelligent ultra-high-precision heat exchanger production line. Through AI algorithms, it has created the world’s only fully automated and intelligent production line with one-flow full robotic arms for evaporator and condenser stamping, punching, and swelling, improving labor efficiency by 41.7%. The three world-class fully flexible dark factories achieve the round-the-clock dark production of evaporators and condensers, piping, and injection molding, and establish a full-process unmanned operation system with AI-based all-round control characterized by self-perception, self-decision-making, and self-scheduling, becoming a global benchmark intelligent production line for the manufacturing of core components of air conditioners.

 

Yue Yang, Deputy Secretary of the CPC Nansha District Committee and Head of Nansha District, Guangzhou, stated that Nansha will continue to serve and escort the development of enterprises as always, keep optimizing the business environment, refining policies and measures, improving service efficiency, and providing comprehensive support for enterprises, and make every effort to build the base into a new benchmark for intelligent manufacturing in the Greater Bay Area, and assist TCL Air Conditioner in expanding and strengthening its presence in Nansha.

 

Du Juan, CEO of TCL Industries, stated that the TCL Air Conditioner Guangzhou Smart Manufacturing Base has achieved the miracle of “obtaining land, commencing production, and being included in statistics in the same year”. Deeply practicing the ESG governance philosophy, the park aims to become the first “digital intelligence + zero carbon” dual-benchmark park in the global air conditioner industry and to achieve the comprehensive integration of smart manufacturing and green production. Next, TCL Air Conditioner will leverage TCL Industries’ deep-rooted intelligence and AI capabilities in the smart terminal industry, with the inauguration at the Guangzhou base being a new starting point. It will refine its product layout from sleep fresh air to AI intelligence on the consumer side, and advance its exploration from commercial energy storage to thermal management solutions on the industrial side, striving to become a global leader.

Efficiency Meets Power

TCL Air Conditioners transform the home environment through a dual-core philosophy: pristine air quality and peak energy efficiency. At the heart of this innovation is the T-AI Energy Saving technology, an intelligent system that intuitively eliminates power waste. By merging high-performance cooling with smart consumption, TCL transforms everyday comfort into measurable value for the modern Filipino home

It is comfort that doesn't just respond to you, but anticipates your needs.

Cooling That Fits Your Vibe

Smarter Cooling Starts Here: Stay Cool and Spend Less with TCL T-AI ACs

 With summer just a few months away, staying cool at home can feel like a challenge, especially when the thought of soaring electricity bills looms over. For many households, the fear of high energy costs makes running an air conditioner a stressful choice rather than a comfortable one. TCL, the Triple Global Top 1 TV Brand and the world leader in AC sales, is addressing this concern. By combining intelligent technology, energy efficiency, and modern convenience, TCL’s latest air conditioner lineup helps households beat the heat without breaking the budget.

TCL’s FreshIN 3.0, VoxIN, and BreezeIN+ air conditioners are powered by T-AI Energy Saving Technology. This results in perfectly balanced cooling while reducing electricity consumption, turning air conditioning into a smart, efficient, and lifestyle-driven choice.

“Our T-AI technology transforms air conditioning into a truly intelligent experience. Rather than simply reaching a set temperature, FreshIN 3.0, VoxIN, and BreezeIN+ learn your patterns, anticipate your needs, and provide comfort in the most efficient way possible. From reducing unnecessary energy use to maintaining a consistent, pleasant indoor climate, T-AI makes running an AC stress-free, convenient, and economical, especially for families preparing their homes for warmer months,” says Bert Cheung, Deputy Director of AC Product Operation and B2B Business.

T-AI Powers TCL Air Conditioners for Effortless Comfort and Savings

 

Imagine an air conditioner that cools as intelligently as it operates. TCL’s T-AI technology powers a smarter home by automatically adjusting compressor output and airflow based on real-time conditions and user needs. This prevents overcooling and eliminates unnecessary energy use by helping reduce electricity consumption by up to 37%. With TCL, households enjoy the perfect combination of premium comfort and energy-efficient savings.

The TCL FreshIN 3.0 series extends intelligent cooling by prioritizing air freshness and overall indoor comfort, while keeping energy efficiency in check. Powered by T-AI technology, FreshIN 3.0 automatically manages airflow and fresh air circulation to help prevent stale indoor air and maintain a more pleasant living environment. This technology continuously evaluates indoor and outdoor conditions to optimize performance and reduce power use. Supporting features such as healthy fresh air circulation, quiet operation through a Quadruple Noise Reduction System (reducing noise by up to 17%), and convenient voice command functionality further enhance everyday comfort, without adding complexity or energy waste.

For the TCL VoxIN series, T-AI technology simplifies daily cooling through smart automation and adaptive learning. Through the TCL Home App, users can monitor usage and adjust settings while T-AI works in the background to optimize energy consumption. Features like Smart Arrive/Leave Home ensure the AC runs only when needed, while Eco Mode maintains comfort at lower power levels. Over time, Smart Learning Mode adapts to preferred temperature settings, minimizing manual adjustments while optional voice command control adds hands-free convenience without compromising energy efficiency.

In the TCL BreezeIN+ series, T-AI technology gently regulates compressor speed and airflow direction to deliver a soft, natural breeze, rather than forcefully pushing cold air to hit a set temperature. The cooling feels smooth and unobtrusive, never harsh or overwhelming. By precisely managing when and how cooling power is applied, BreezeIN+ maintains consistent comfort while minimizing energy spikes and reducing overall power consumption.

 

At the heart of every TCL air conditioner is T-AI Energy Saving Technology—the intelligent system that powers FreshIN, VoxIN, and BreezeIN+. By learning usage patterns, adapting to real-time conditions, and delivering only the power needed, T-AI ensures consistent comfort while significantly reducing energy consumption. It transforms air conditioning from a cost concern into a smart, long-term investment in comfort, efficiency, and peace of mind.
