Slim is in: LG's New Single Duct System Transforms HVAC Installation
-
Installers often face the challenge of working within tight spaces.
In the world of architectural design, every detail matters, including the height between each floor. In residential buildings, plenum space height is a critical factor, often determining not just the aesthetics but also the functionality of each room. This space can vary based on design requirements and regional building codes. Understanding these variations can help homeowners and builders make informed decisions about their construction projects.

To address these challenges, LG has introduced a new Single Duct system. This innovative solution offers flexible installation and can be installed even in a relatively narrower ceiling shaft for installers.

LG's Single Duct Upgrade: Features That Will Make Your Job Easier
LG HVAC has taken a leap forward with their latest Single Duct solution. This innovative system boasts four standout features designed to enhance efficiency and comfort. These advancements make LG’s Single Duct a game-changer in modern living environments.
Let's dive into what sets this product apart.
-
Feature 1: Flexible Installation
Installing conventional ductwork in residential buildings with limited ceiling space can be a challenge, as each floor typically requires around 300mm of plenum space height. To address this issue, LG implemented the following in its single duct system.
-
Low-Height Design
• At just 245mm in height, the Single Duct unit provides up to 55mm of additional installation space, making it easier to fit into tight ceiling shafts without compromising performance.
-
※ The product height may vary depending on the model
-
No Space Limits
• Flexible horizontal and vertical installation options allow for seamless placement in narrow or uniquely shaped areas, offering greater adaptability for various building structures.
-
※ The vertical installation may vary depending on the model
-
Bottom Air Intake
• The unit’s rear and bottom air intake eliminates space constraints, improving airflow efficiency and enabling installation in layouts where side clearance is limited.
-
Feature 2: Built-in Drain Pump
A built-in drain pump enhances installation convenience by eliminating the need for separate pump installation, reducing both labor time and potential errors. This feature also improves installation quality and reliability, allowing for efficient drainage without additional components or modifications.
-
Feature 3: Easy Maintenance
The new Single Duct design significantly enhances accessibility to control devices by allowing service and maintenance from below the unit. This innovative structure eliminates the need for side access, thereby reducing the required inspection space and shortening repair time.
Additionally, the unit’s compact size and flexible installation options make it adaptable to tight spaces without compromising on ease of maintenance. This improved accessibility not only minimizes downtime but also lowers maintenance costs, making it a practical choice for both residential and commercial applications.
-
Feature 4: E.S.P. Control
External Static Pressure (ESP) control is a key feature for installers, providing consistent and sufficient airflow even when ducting is extended into larger spaces. By allowing manual adjustment of ESP, the system maintains optimal air volume and performance regardless of duct length. This flexibility not only enhances installation adaptability but also delivers efficient air distribution for improved comfort in various building layouts.
