Buying an appliance always involves several issues in addition to the price of the product. In the case of air conditioning, it is no different. Choosing an air conditioning device must be careful to avoid future headaches and excessive maintenance costs or extra energy costs.
The wide range of devices on the market always leaves consumers in doubt when purchasing. In addition to the different models, colors and sizes, you need to choose an air conditioner that has the capacity (in BTUs) ideal for the environment that will be installed, as well as additional features that add greater comfort and convenience — such as integration with the connected home.
Check out this article which are the best air conditioners in the world. LG to create a more comfortable environment in your home.
Key Features
In addition to air conditioning and making the environment more comfortable, air conditioning units also need to meet requirements such as economy, modernity and being silent. Check out other features present in the products LG that can improve your daily life.
Dual Inverter Compressor
Among the various features that air conditioning LG have, one of them is the technology dual inverter, a more optimized and updated version of Inverter. But what does this mean?
Air conditioning units with Dual Inverter are capable of reaching the chosen temperature up to 40% faster. This occurs because the compressor has a system with two rotors, coupled to a motor BLDC (brushless direct current), which provides a more constant flow of refrigerant gas, reducing noise and vibrations while improving the response time of the air conditioning.
Furthermore, devices with Dual Inverter have incredible energy efficiency, which can save up to 70% and are very silent. A great example is the LG Dual Inverter Voice, which can be controlled by voice through the ThinQ app, connected to Google Assistant and Alexa.
LG ThinQ connectivity and voice assistants
The creation of connected home appliances brings more convenience to everyday life, allowing customers to have a smart, modern, economical and comfortable home. With the various advances in technology, today it is possible to turn on the washing machine or control the air conditioning temperature without having to be at home.
In 2015, LG launched the app LG ThinQ, an artificial intelligence software that integrates devices and voice assistants, such as Google Assistant and Alexa, to automate various actions such as turning on, choosing functions and turning off appliances such as air conditioning, TV, microwave and washing machine, for example. The application is available on Google Play Store for Android and also on App Store for iPhone/iPad.
LG ThinQ's main goal is to create personalized experiences for its users. The application's artificial intelligence can develop personalized experiences based on user preferences recorded while using equipment linked to the application.
With it, you can monitor when maintenance on household appliances will be necessary, create home cleaning routines and receive alerts about the expiration date of food stored in the refrigerator, for example. Other possibilities offered by LG ThinQ include routine settings, where the user can activate “Exit Mode” and automatically turn off all appliances and electronics.
How to choose Air Conditioning capacity?
Anyone who thinks that to buy an air conditioner you just need to go to a physical store or access a website and place an order is mistaken. For your purchase to be good and actually meet your needs, you need to analyze other details before making the purchase, such as:
- What is the climate like in the region where you live?
- Does the environment chosen to install the device have a lot or little natural lighting?
- What are the dimensions of the place where the air conditioning will be installed?
- How many people remain in place?
- Do you have more appliances in place? If so, which ones?
All of these issues directly influence the choice of the best air conditioning refrigeration power, or as it is better known, BTU — acronym in English for british thermal unit, a thermal unit that measures the power of heaters and refrigerators. In short, the higher the number of BTUs, the greater the power of the device.
To calculate the required capacity, an HVAC professional can determine the required power — but for simple environments, LG's capacity simulator is sufficient.
LG air conditioner capacity simulator
A LG offers on the website a capacity simulator which helps you choose the best device for your space and region.
Usage is very simple. When accessing the website you must provide some information:
Step 1: The region in which you live;
Step 2: What is the natural lighting in the environment where the device will be installed;

Step 4: How many people use the environment;
Step 5: What other appliances are installed there.
Step 6: Lastly, click See result and check out the device suggestions that best suit your needs.
In the simulation carried out by showmetech, we used the following information: a 9m² room; located in the central-west region; in an area with lots of natural lighting; used by four people. Furthermore, the space has four computers and a TV.
In this case, the most suitable air conditioning units are those from the LG Dual Inverter Voice, a line with energy savings of up to 70% e up to 40% faster cooling. For those who work or study in places with air conditioning, you know how important a noise-free device is, right?
