LG INTRODUCES ITS AIR CONDITIONER EQUIPPED WITH INNOVATIVE CORE TECHNOLOGY 

With Revolutionary Dual Inverter Compressor™, DUALCOOL Air Conditioner is Both Powerful and Energy Efficient

LG Electronics (LG) is showcasing its latest residential air conditioner (RAC). The DUALCOOL air conditioner combines innovative features, and is the first air conditioner to utilize the company’s Dual Inverter Compressor™, which saves energy without sacrificing cooling performance. The effectiveness of the Dual Inverter Compressor™ has prompted the company to expand its RAC lineup and install the advanced compressors in more models. In addition to its outstanding performance and high energy efficiency, the DUALCOOL’s straightforward installation process saves time and effort for technicians and those making repairs.

As the first air conditioner to implement LG’s Dual Inverter Compressor™, the DUALCOOL delivers powerful cooling performance and outstanding energy savings. This revolutionary technology consumes up to 70 percent less electricity while simulta-neously providing up to 40 percent faster cooling than typical non-inverter RACs and has been certified by the world-renowned testing organization, TÜV Rheinland.1 Thanks to the efficiency and cooling potential of the Dual Inverter Compressor™ users are no longer forced to compromise performance in favor of their pocketbooks. In addi-tion, LG’s incredible compressor technology enables the DUALCOOL to operate at an exceptionally low noise level. The reliable compressor is also backed up by a 10-year warranty.

Along with its slim, elegant design that matches any interior décor, the DUALCOOL’s simplified installation process offers benefits for both users and installers. The quick and easy installation procedure of DUALCOOL air conditioner requires only one installer to put the system in place while conventional models require two. Moreover, LG’s latest RAC comes with a smart detection system which notifies users when refrigerant is low and must be replaced.

“We’re pleased to be presenting our innovative air solution appliances.” said Song Dae-hyun, president of LG Electronics and Home Appliance & Air Solutions Company. “With our state-of-the-art DUAL Inverter Compressor™ and air conditioning systems, LG’s latest DUALCOOL air conditioner offers consumers an array of benefits through its excellent performance to improve consumer’s daily life by adding convenience and efficiency wherever possible.”
