LG HVAC Solutions at MAQ Software's Noida Headquarters, India: A Smarter, Healthier Office Workplace

• Project Scope — LG Multi V 5 VRF system deployed across MAQ Software's Noida headquarters, serving office areas, office gallery areas, meeting rooms, a conference hall, a guest room, and the cafeteria.
• Scale — Approximately 2,500 employees, with cooling zoned by space type using 4 way, 2 way, and 1 way cassette indoor units, plus an AHU serving the cafeteria.
• Air Quality — Optional PM 1.0 air purification filters (3- and 5-step filtration) address Delhi NCR's air quality conditions.
• Management — LG AC Manager 5 and AC Smart 5 provide centralized, internet-based remote monitoring and control.

MAQ Software's Noida headquarters in Delhi NCR runs on an LG Multi V 5 VRF system that cools open workspaces, office galleries, meeting rooms, a conference hall, a guest room, and the cafeteria for around 2,500 employees. The company chose VRF over a traditional chiller plant for zone-by-zone control, added optional PM 1.0 air purification to address Delhi NCR's air quality, and manages the system centrally through LG AC Manager 5 and AC Smart 5.

The brief for the new building was a workplace where people can work comfortably, collaborate effectively, and stay productive. Designed for a dynamic workforce and evolving business requirements, the facility combines modern infrastructure and intelligent technology. To create a comfortable, energy-efficient, and healthy indoor environment, MAQ Software partnered with LG for an advanced HVAC solution.

For MAQ Software, selection of the right HVAC system was an essential part of planning the new facility. After evaluating different options, including traditional chiller systems, the organization selected a modular approach using VRF technology.

The building includes open workspaces, office galleries, meeting rooms, a conference hall, a guest room, and a cafeteria, each with different cooling requirements. LG's Multi V 5 VRF system was deployed across the facility to provide flexible and efficient climate control. Multiple indoor units can be connected to outdoor units installed on the terrace, at ground level, and in the balcony areas of each floor, allowing the system to adapt to different areas of the workplace. Each outdoor unit runs on LG's Ultimate Inverter Compressor, which varies its speed with the cooling load, so output follows actual demand across zones instead of cycling on and off.[4]

Summary — Unlike a traditional chiller plant, which centralizes cooling into one large system, VRF distributes climate control zone-by-zone — a better fit for a facility with widely varying space types and occupancy patterns. Chillers remain a common choice for very large buildings with steady, uniform loads; VRF makes the most sense where zone sizes, uses, and occupancy differ.

Different spaces demand different approaches for air conditioning. At the MAQ Software headquarters, LG has implemented a combination of indoor units based on the needs of individual areas.

4 way cassette units serve the open office areas and the conference hall, while 2 way and 4 way cassette units are installed in the office gallery areas. 1 way cassette units are used in individual meeting rooms and a guest room, and the cafeteria is cooled by a Multi V 5 system combined with an AHU. This combination helps create a consistent comfort level across diverse workplace environments while supporting the building's modular HVAC design.

In November 2025, Delhi frequently recorded Air Quality Index (AQI) levels in the "Very Poor" band (301–400), according to data published by India's Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB).[1] With around 2,500 employees using the building, MAQ Software made air quality an essential part of its HVAC solution.

LG addressed this requirement with indoor units featuring built-in PM 1.0 air purification filters.* PM 1.0 refers to airborne particles 1 micrometre or smaller in diameter, finer than the PM2.5 and PM10 fractions used in India's AQI. The solution is designed to capture fine dust particles and support a clean indoor environment. The filters are also easy to clean and reusable, making them practical for long-term workplace operation.

*Optional feature — available with 3-step or 5-step filtration.

Summary — Indoor air quality isn't an add-on for offices in high-pollution regions — it's a core HVAC design requirement.

Managing a large HVAC installation can be challenging without centralized control. MAQ Software therefore prioritized the ability to monitor and manage its air conditioning system remotely.

Alongside LG wired remote controllers for local, room-level operation, LG AC Manager 5 and AC Smart 5 let the facility remotely monitor and manage the HVAC system through the internet. This gives the facility team a single view of system status, schedules, and alarms without needing to be on-site.[2] AC Smart 5 can also switch on air-purifying mode and display real-time air quality readings for up to 128 connected units, linking the filtration and control sides of the system.[3]

For MAQ Software, employee well-being, energy efficiency, and long-term sustainability were key priorities. LG's VRF-based HVAC solution brings these requirements together through a modular system, targeted indoor-unit selection, air purification, and centralized management.

The approach demonstrates how commercial HVAC systems can become an important part of a modern workplace strategy — not simply providing cooling, but contributing to comfort, operational efficiency, and a healthy work environment.

LG's made-in-India capabilities and after-sales support further strengthen its role as an HVAC partner for organizations such as MAQ Software. LG Electronics India manufactures air conditioners and commercial air conditioning systems at its plants in Greater Noida, in the same Delhi NCR region as MAQ Software's headquarters, and in Ranjangaon, Pune.[5] For a technology-driven business, dependable infrastructure and responsive support are important to maintain a comfortable workplace.

By combining intelligent climate control, cleaner indoor air, and centralized system management, LG has helped MAQ Software create a workplace that is efficient, future-ready, and designed around the requirements of its people.

Summary — Local manufacturing and service coverage are part of the value proposition — not just the equipment itself.

The MAQ Software Noida headquarters demonstrates how thoughtful HVAC planning can complement the changing needs of modern offices. From flexible VRF technology and different indoor units to PM 1.0 air purification* and remote system management, the solution addresses comfort, air quality, efficiency, and operational convenience.

As workplaces continue to evolve, smart HVAC solutions can play an essential role in creating spaces that support both people and business performance. Through its partnership with MAQ Software, LG continues to deliver technology-driven air conditioning solutions designed for smarter, healthier, and more energy-efficient workplaces.
