- LG’s Most Advanced Commercial HVAC Solution
South Africa, November 25, 2010 – LG Electronics (LG) today unveiled its new Multi V III commercial air conditioner in South Africa, targeting large-scale facilities such as commercial buildings, office complexes and retailers. The third generation of the popular Multi V series, the new air conditioner will be LG’s flagship product locally, where demand for energy-saving technology is growing fast.
The launch of the Multi V III, the company’s most advanced commercial HVAC solution, is a central part of LG Air Conditioning Company’s plan to secure USD 10 billion in global sales by 2014. With its advanced efficient heating system, the Multi V III is expected to gain significant market share throughout South Africa.
The Multi V III boasts three key consumer benefits; higher energy efficiency, larger capacity and longer piping design. The unit’s energy efficiency, boosted by LG’s unique V-Scroll inverter compressor and HiPORTM (High Pressure Oil Return) technology,[1] delivers a COP (coefficient of performance) level[2] of 4.6, one of the highest in the industry. LG’s new Multi V III can help building owners reduce their operational costs and be friendlier to the environment.
Another advanced feature of the Multi V III is its continuous heating system, which maintains a pleasant indoor temperature without any heat loss from defrosting. In addition, with an increased piping length of 1,000m, 20HP capacity per unit (with a maximum of 80HP with four connected units) and smaller space requirement, the Multi V III is extremely easy and efficient to install and maintain.
“At LG Electronics the demands from local dealers and partners for innovative solutions that are energy efficiency is a priority throughout our entire product development lifecycle. The Multi V III addresses all these requirements of businesses that places LG in strong position as a leading provider of smart and efficient HVAC solutions in South Africa,” says Dr. Michelle Potgieter, Corporate Marketing and Communications at LG Electronics.
The Multi V III will be available in February 2011 from all accredited LG Aircon installers.
