Features
- Inverter Technology
- LG's outdoor condensers are designed with efficient inverter technology. An electronic expansion valve and a variable speed compressor carefully regulate the refrigerant flow, reducing energy consumption and allowing for consistent, accurate temperatures.
- Gold Fin Protection
- To ensure the reliability and longevity of the LMU18CHV's heat exchanger, LG employs a Gold Fin coating that prevents corrosion and improves durability.
- Low Ambient Operations
- This outdoor unit supports cooling operations down to 14 degrees Fahrenheit and heating operations down to -4 degrees Fahrenheit. There is also a defrost feature, which removes frost from the condenser coil in frigid conditions.
- Quiet Design
- Thanks to a brushless direct current motor and a twin rotary compressor, the LMU18CHV is significantly quieter than traditional air conditioning systems. These components reduce mechanical sound, electrical sound, and vibrations within the unit.
