Components-Products-Control Solutions Unveiled at 'AHR Expo'
Targeting 'Profit-Based Growth' with Region-Specialized Products/Solutions

LG Electronics is pursuing the North American HVAC market by leading with region-customized comprehensive HVAC solutions consisting of components, finished products, and control solutions.

LG Electronics showcased a wide range of region-specialized strategic products at 'AHR Expo (The International Air-Conditioning Heating Refrigerating Exposition) 2018' held in Chicago.

LG Electronics established three exhibition booths spanning 556 square meters (m2): a 'Control Exhibition Hall' showcasing various HVAC control solutions based on connectivity, a 'Product Exhibition Hall' displaying diverse system air conditioners, and a 'Components Exhibition Hall' introducing key components such as motors and compressors mounted on HVAC products.

LG Electronics introduced the 'MultiSITE' solution, a commercial building management system (BMS; Building Management System), at the 'Control Exhibition Hall'. This solution was developed based on the 'Niagara' technology platform commonly used in the North American region, enabling integrated management by connecting other building facilities such as lighting and security devices. LG Electronics also displayed various IoT devices compatible with system air conditioners. Key devices include artificial intelligence speakers such as Google Home and Amazon Echo, as well as temperature control devices from Nest and Honeywell.



At the 'Product Exhibition Hall', LG Electronics introduced system air conditioners such as 'Multi V' and 'Multi F' that implement heating and cooling according to building size, characteristics, and purpose.

'Multi V' is drawing attention in the commercial HVAC market by incorporating a high-efficiency inverter compressor that simultaneously delivers performance and energy efficiency. LG Electronics supplied 'Multi V' to CBS Colombia Square.

LG Electronics also showcased cold-region specialized products targeting the northern United States and Canada where winter temperatures are low. 'Multi F' can operate heating even at minus 25 degrees Celsius and offers high energy efficiency, earning 'Energy Star' certification from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

LG Electronics displayed numerous core components mounted on HVAC products. The company plans to actively pursue the U.S. system air conditioner market with enhanced Two-Stage Scroll Compressors and Unitary Duty Rotary Compressors.

Song Dae-hyun, president of LG Electronics' H&A Business Division, stated, "Based on LG's differentiated technological capabilities, we will lay the foundation for 'profit-based growth' in the North American HVAC market by leading with region-specialized products and solutions optimized to customer needs."
