LG Electronics Launches 2022 'Whisen Tower' Air Conditioner with Enhanced Air Purification Features

Features of the 'Hybrid' Function with Automatic + Self-Cleaning Management

LG Electronics will launch the 2022 model of the 'LG Whisen Tower Air Conditioner Objet Collection' equipped with 'Hybrid Clean Management,' an enhanced hygiene management feature, on the 27th. The model is using the new product in various spaces.

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Sun-mi] LG Electronics announced on the 26th that it will launch the 2022 model ‘LG Whisen Tower Air Conditioner Objet Collection.’ The new product features a ‘hybrid clean management’ function that combines enhanced automatic cleaning management, which manages the air conditioner automatically, with self-cleaning management that allows customers to clean it themselves.

The newly added heat exchanger cleaning function in the product launching on the 27th lowers the temperature to freeze moisture in the air, collecting it on the surface of the heat exchanger, then raises the temperature again to wash away contaminants such as dust attached to the heat exchanger with the water created. This function is also effective in removing bacteria that cause odors attached to the heat exchanger.

Automatic cleaning management includes ▲Filter Clean Bot (Stage 1) that automatically cleans the ultra-fine filter ▲Antibacterial ultra-fine filter (Stage 2) that removes bacteria that can attach to the filter ▲Korean Air Cleaning Association CAC certified air purification (Stage 3) that removes ultrafine dust ▲Heat exchanger cleaning (Stage 4) ▲AI drying (Stage 5) ▲99.99% UV LED fan sterilization (Stage 6) certified by the internationally accredited testing and certification body, Germany’s TUV Rheinland. These stages thoroughly and automatically manage the airflow path, allowing customers to use the air conditioner more conveniently and comfortably.

Self-cleaning management is also possible. Customers can easily open the inside of the air conditioner and clean all the fans whenever needed. By simplifying the structure, loosening only the screws attached to the front panel, side grille, and fan connections allows all four fans to be thoroughly cleaned.

The new product inherits the differentiated performance and design unique to the LG Whisen Tower. The ‘Wide Care Cooling’ uses four left-right air guards that freely adjust the wind direction to send cold air toward the walls, minimizing direct airflow to people while keeping the entire room cool. In Comfortable Energy Saving Mode, the indoor temperature is kept cool while the cumulative power consumption is reduced by about 72% compared to the maximum cooling mode, Ice Cool Power, demonstrating excellent energy-saving performance.

The price of the 20 new LG Whisen stand-type air conditioner models ranges from 2.7 million KRW to 7.6 million KRW based on the shipment price. The colors include five options: the new Objet Collection color Calming Clay Brown, Calming Beige, Calming Green, Romantic Rose, and Wedding Snow. LG Electronics plans to hold a live commerce broadcast on its official website at 7 p.m. on the 27th to commemorate the launch of the Whisen Tower new product. Customers who purchase through the broadcast will receive benefits worth up to 300,000 KRW.

Lee Jae-sung, Vice President of the H&A Business Division, said, “We will provide customers with a differentiated experience through next-level clean management and continuous upgrades.”
