LG Electronics, a global leader in heating, ventilation and air conditioning, has introduced its latest Multi V 5 commercial air conditioner into the Nigerian market. The unveiling to ensure penetration of this commercial air conditioner into the market to meet the growing need for air conditioners that can perform on a higher level, took place in Lagos at the weekend.

Speaking at the unveiling ceremony, General Manager, Air conditioning and Energy Solution Division, LG Electronics West Africa Operations, Mr. Cholyong Park said: “As a company with a great focus on producing energy-saving and efficient products, we are happy to introduce the Multi V 5 into the Nigerian market. With this product in the market, we are in a better position to work with our dealers and business partners to make LG the No. 1 provider of smart and efficient HVAC solutions.

“Equipped with LG’s exclusive Ocean Black Fin, the MULTI V 5 is protected from corrosive substances such as salt, sand and other elements brought in by sea winds as well as industrial pollution. The black coating of the Ocean Black Fin heat exchanger keeps water from accumulating in order to minimize moisture build up. The durability enhancement prolongs the product’s lifespan and lowers maintenance costs, paving the way for improved performance.

“Efficient systems like the Smart Load Control make it possible to effectively regulate outdoor unit discharge refrigerant temperature, increasing energy efficiency anywhere from 15 to 31 per cent depending on humidity conditions. This is ideal especially for tropical environment as the Smart Load Control function’s comprehensive understanding of its surroundings helps optimise energy efficiency while maximizing indoor comfort levels.

“Typical VRFs normally fluctuate considerably in order to maintain a set indoor temperature, making them highly inefficient. The introduction of the new technology is coming at a time LG is looking at the direction of laying more emphasis on its business to business in Nigeria, where the demand for energy-saving technology is increasing on a daily basis.

“The unveiling of the Multi V 5 which is LG’s newest Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) solution is evidence of the electronic giant’s drive to always be ahead of competition and lead in innovation by ensuring consumers’ satisfaction and comfort is a key concern when manufacturing products. Expectedly, this cutting edge technology would gain significant market share in Nigeria and indeed, Sub-Sahara Africa.

“Interestingly, the Multi V 5 solution is designed to offer exceptional performance even in extreme climate conditions with its streamlined functionality optimising energy efficiency and maximizing user comfort at all time. It is equipped with an innovative Dual Sensing Control that monitors temperature and humidity level to efficiently manage cooling and heating. The Multi V 5 is no doubt a powerful climate control solution that can excel in tough climates,” Park said.
