    LG's devotion to providing efficient ductless solutions can be seen across the Multi F line of outdoor condensers. The LMU36CHV is a multi-zone mini split outdoor condenser capable of supplying ductless heating and cooling for up to four rooms in your home. With inverter technology and nearly two dozen compatible indoor units in a variety of styles, the LMU36CHV is a great choice for nearly any applications.
  • 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 LMU36CHV's heat exchanger, LG employs a Gold Fin coating that prevents corrosion and improves durability.
  • Quiet Design
  • Thanks to a brushless direct current motor and a twin rotary compressor, the LMU36CHV is significantly quieter than traditional air conditioning systems. These components reduce mechanical sound, electrical sound, and vibrations within the unit.

Excellent Buy

Review Posted 08/26/2022 
We have been using this AC unit for the past 2 weeks, it is excellent and noiseless (a great plus).
Time will tell if all this will remain the same, however I have great confidence in this product.

Excellent multi-zone unit
By Robert P.

Review Posted 08/21/2020 
I've had this multi-zone outdoor condenser running for two heating and cooling seasons and absolutely love it! It's quiet and have worked flawlessly. It was a self-install and I've installed another exact same unit and had the same results.

Excellent Unit AND SUPPLIER-super responsive&helpful.
By Don J. 
Denver, Colorado
Purchased 06/01/2018 | 
Review Posted 07/20/2020 
Unit is as good as described (we got the LMU36CHV 4-zone model by LG) and my wife loves the picture frame interior unit we put in her office.
All equipment functions very quietly and smoothly.
-we got this two years ago 2018 and it continues to operate well. Saved thousands by doing the rough work and then hiring local HVAC and electrician to do the detail work.
We also got the line set covers for the exterior and painted them to match the house so they blended right in.
Note:
eComfort was consistently pleasant and helpful, so much so that i wouldn't even look elsewhere for additional equipment. We plan to use them for another split system in another home. Units were delivered to our driveway on pallet, very smartly secured and protected.

Review Posted 11/23/2019 
Installation of the LG units went fairly easy. I purchased the split zone for two rooms. I hired a local AC guy to help with the installation and an electrician to run the power. Once everything was connected and turned on the power, we were all amazed of how quiet the inside and outside units were when turned on. I mounted the outside unit on a bracket and anchored it to the exterior wall. No vibration at all. Super smooth and just whisper quite. Living in Florida where the summers are hot, these units did a remarkable job in cooling each room. Very impressed. We are moving into our winter season, anxious to see how the perform when it starts to cool down.

Great Condenser
By Mark K. 
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Purchased 06/12/2018 | 
Review Posted 10/06/2019 
I have had this unit(LG36k) for 2 years now and it runs great! Its connected to 3 LG art cool gallery wall mount units. 2 units upstairs at 9k and a downstairs unit at 12k. All run extremely quiet and are effective at cooling and heating even when the unit is first turned on.
I had one issue earlier this summer when we first started the cooling cycle, noticed the compressor or any other parts weren't running so called my hvac guy. Here the coolant had leaked due to a small flange leak, the unit was smart enough to notice low coolant levels and didn't kick on which probably saved me from further damage!

Great Unit!

Review Posted 09/28/2019 
I am a general contractor and purchased this unit over the Daikin base on the better SEER rating.
I roughed in the line sets and mounted the outdoor compressor and wall unit brackets.
I had a HVAC contractor make the line set and electrical connections. I considered doing this myself, however making perfect flare connections is beyond my skill set.
The installation instructions are not very intuitive, even for my installer. He usually works with the Daikin.
Super quiet, very efficient, works great.
