Air-conditioning is integral to everyday life in the Philippines, owing to the tropical climate that can get blazing hot. However, according to the Global Competitiveness Report by the World Economic Forum (WEF), electricity in the Philippines ranks a lowly 92ndglobally, meaning the price of electricity is very high.
LG R1 Compressor
LG’s brand-new line up for single CAC, which are perfect for restaurants, small and medium-sized stores, and small and medium-sized offices, include the Floor Standing, the Ceiling Mounted Cassette, the 1 Way Ceiling Cassette, the Ceiling Suspended, and the Ceiling Concealed Duct.
The compressor used in the new lineup is an LG-exclusive R1 Compressor with a shaft through the bottom compression structure. With its innovative technology, the R1 Compressor has resolved the endemic problem of relatively low efficiency in the widely used rotary compressor and improves the tilting motion of scroll. Because of the compressor, it lowers the noise to 4dB and reduces its weight by 20%.

Compared to other companies’ line up for a single CAC, which operated with a non-inverter compressor, all of LG’s CAC operated with the inverters. With the LG Smart Inverter, they expect the annual price of electricity to decline by 25% compared to an on/off model. Likewise, users can receive a quick return on investment within 20 months because of energy savings.
Mr. Young Park, Vice President for Air Conditioners and Energy Solutions of LGEPH giving his closing remarks.
After announcing the brand-new line up for single CAC, LG also introduced the Dual Vane Cassette, an upgraded version of the 4 Way Ceiling Cassette, and the Round Cassette which raised expectations and set the bar high.
LGEPH Air Solutions Business Development Manager Mr. Rod Astoriano is discussing the brand-new Line up for Single Commercial Air Conditioner and Dual Vane Cassette.
Since the dual Vane Cassette has eight vanes, it manages airflow more precisely and provides optimized airflow for users.
LG Electronics Asia B2B Air Solutions Sales Manager Mr. Joohoon Kim is talking about the R1 Compressor and Round Cassette.
With a premium round design, the Round Cassette provides perfect circular airflow with no blind spot by minimizing junctions whereas a conventional round cassette has three outlets to provide a three-way airflow with blind spots.
