Another species of Roseomonas, R. aeriglobus, was also isolated from an air conditioner.Lee Y, Jeon CO. Roseomonas aeriglobus sp. nov., isolated from an air-conditioning system.

The optimum growth temperature for R. aerofrigidensis is 30 °C, but can grow in the 10-45 °C range. The optimum pH is 7.0, and can grow in pH 4.5-9.5.
