Remember the saying: 'HVAC? Don't forget the "V" – ventilation.
In today's world, we spend up to 90% of our time indoors.1) This makes proper ventilation crucial for transforming our living spaces from potential health hazards into refreshing, breathable environments. Advanced ventilation systems play a vital role in:
• Combating indoor pollutants
• Controlling humidity levels
• Preventing harmful airborne particles
• Lowering indoor CO2 concentrations and supplying fresh air
These systems help reduce respiratory issues and other health complications associated with poor indoor air quality.

To address these indoor air quality concerns, LG has developed an innovative ventilation technology called Energy Recovery Ventilation (ERV).
LG's ERV heat recovery system:
• Minimizes heat loss during air ventilation
• Captures heat energy from exhaust air
• Eliminates traditional energy waste during air exchange
Advanced indoor systems are transforming our living spaces from mere shelters into intelligent, health-promoting environments that optimize air quality, comfort, and personal well-being.
The Energy Recovery Ventilation (ERV) market is rapidly expanding, driven by sustainability, energy efficiency, and indoor air quality concerns.
Expected to grow at a CAGR of 14.3% from 2022 to 2031, the market could reach around USD 9.8 billion, with North America2) leading and Asia-Pacific emerging as a key growth area. As buildings become more sophisticated, ERV systems are shifting from luxury features to essential components of modern, health-conscious design.

LG designs its Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) systems to improve indoor air quality while maximizing energy efficiency. A key feature of these systems is their ability to recover heat during ventilation. This helps stop energy loss that often happens with traditional methods.
The high-efficiency energy recovery core improves comfort and efficiency. It recovers up to 78%* of heat energy from outgoing indoor air. They then transfer this energy to incoming fresh air.
* Based on internal tests conducted according to ErP temperature standards, the following heat recovery efficiency values were obtained under the conditions specified below.
- Indoor Temperature: 25°C DB / Under 14°C WB, Outdoor Temperature: 5°C DB / - WB
* The product model number is ZE050GUCCA0.
This innovative approach reduces energy consumption while ensuring a constant supply of clean, fresh air indoors. ERV systems maintain comfortable indoor temperatures by recovering heat that people usually waste. This can help reduce energy consumption.
LG offers a comprehensive range of ERV solutions tailored for different needs. The company provides a wide variety of ventilation products with capacities ranging from 150 to 2000 CMH (Cubic Meters per Hour).
This extensive lineup LG can meet diverse ventilation requirements across various settings, from small residential spaces to large commercial buildings.
LG ERV systems enhance indoor air quality by filtering pollutants. They automatically adjust ventilation based on CO2 levels and work with heating and cooling units to precondition incoming air, reducing energy use. Let’s explore how these systems work in detail.
a. CO2 Auto Operation
Carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration is a crucial indicator of indoor air quality. Elevated CO2 levels can significantly impact human health, cognitive function, and overall well-being. Maintaining appropriate CO2 levels is essential for creating a healthy and productive indoor environment.3)

LG ERV systems feature an advanced CO2 sensor that continuously monitors indoor CO2 levels. When these levels rise, indicating a need for more fresh air, the ERV automatically adjusts the fan speed to increase ventilation.
This demand-controlled ventilation allows the system to introduce outdoor air only when necessary, improving indoor air quality while conserving energy.
b. High Performance Filter
LG ERV systems are designed with a two-stage filtration process that improves indoor air quality. First, the pre-filter removes larger particles from the air. Then, the fine dust filter captures smaller and more harmful particles, provide cleaner air for your space.
To meet specific air quality needs, LG offers various filter combinations based on the European Norm 16798 standards. This means that depending on the required air quality levels for different environments, LG ERVs can provide the right filters to a healthy indoor atmosphere*.
* Please note that filters suitable for specific air quality requirements can be purchased as optional add-ons.
c. Interlocking Air Conditioner
LG ERV systems feature a function that quickly brings the room temperature to the desired level, reducing both cooling and heating loads. By delaying the operation of the ERV when the air conditioner is running, these systems minimize unnecessary energy loss.
Moreover, LG HVAC offers the convenience of controlling both LG air conditioners and LG ventilation products with a single remote control. This simultaneous operation that energy is used efficiently, allowing for effective cooling or heating while maintaining optimal indoor comfort.
LG ERVs are designed with energy efficiency in mind, improving indoor air quality while reducing energy costs, making them a sustainable choice for any building. With features like CO2 auto operation, high performance filter and interlocking with air conditioner, LG ERVs stand out in the HVAC market.
