Owners of the AC Infinity AirTap T4/T6 with a Gen2 vent can replace the factory control board with our ESP32 module to add local smart home control through ESPHome and Home Assistant. The Gen2 housing keeps the original button bracket in place. The kit includes a small display cover bracket made for the Gen2 layout. This guide walks through what is in the kit, how that cover bracket fits, and the exact steps to install the PCB.
This guide explains the parts included with the module, how the display cover bracket works, and the step-by-step installation process.
Plug and Play Option
For the fastest install, we offer a complete ESP32 board that arrives ready to mount. No board modification is required. Connect the cables, fit the display cover bracket, and install the module in the vent.
