LG Electronics (LG) revolutionized Malawi’s indoor climate scene by introducing its cutting-edge Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) technologies to over 60 professionals on July 26, 2024, in Lilongwe.
This inaugural seminar showcased LG’s commitment to providing top-notch product training, supply, and after-sales support to its Malawian customers.
The event drew a diverse crowd of contractors, architects, building engineers, MEP consultants, project managers, developers, and government officials.
LG’s latest air conditioning solutions took center stage, highlighting their efficiency, sustainability, and innovative features.
By enhancing awareness and training, LG aims to increase the adoption of innovative HVAC technologies in the local market.
The company is partnering with industry players to strengthen its B2B business and provide a platform for sharpening technical skills, supporting the uptake of its state-of-the-art air conditioners.
Attendees engaged directly with LG representatives, gaining valuable insights into optimizing indoor comfort and energy management with LG HVAC systems.
“We are thrilled to introduce our new products to Malawian professionals and ensure they have access to our latest technologies,” said Barrack Onyango, Design Engineer, LG Electronics.
The event also facilitated a productive networking session, reinforcing LG’s position as a leading global provider of HVAC solutions.
“This timely workshop allowed construction and property industry players to share best practices for indoor climate and heating system management,” said Harold Jere, Managing Director of Anderson Engineering, LG’s East African partner.
LG showcased its energy-efficient residential and commercial HVAC product lineups, including the MULTI V i, an AI-powered Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) technology that allows users to control heating, ventilation, and hot water simultaneously via smooth connectivity with indoor units.
The system operates in temperatures from -30°C to 52°C, with full performance in the -10°C to 43°C range, unmatched for a single-unit system.
The intelligent system uses data on user behavior patterns, temperature, people, season, and humidity levels to create an optimal indoor environment while decreasing energy usage.
All systems on display can be integrated into the LG ThinQ app for temperature management optimization.
Additionally, customers in the region can rely on the Total Management System (TMS-BECON Cloud and HVAC), recently introduced to the Eastern Africa market, allowing LG to support customers through real-time monitoring of their LG air conditioners from the Nairobi office.
