LG ELECTRONICS LG Electronics USA Air Conditioning Technologies Rather than the entire HVAC system set to one temperature, the Multi V 5 allows for each zone to be set independently. With a heat recovery system, different zones can be simultaneously heating and cooling affording residents the ability to precisely control the temperature in their space. The Multi V 5 features a new biomimetic fan design, which enables the unit to operate more efficiently and increase airflow, while rducing the perceived noise level by about 20 percent for a quiet system that doesn't interrupt residents' activities or rest. Facility owners and operators will experience a more substantial return on investment with this variable refrigerant flow system. With a smaller installation footprint throughout the entire facility, the Multi V 5 has comparable first costs to a simple, inexpensive HVAC system due to its reduced structural and architectural requirements. In addition to the cost savings of its compact and lightweight design, the Multi V 5 system, named by Buildings as "Top Money Saving Product 2017," also has a lower operational cost than traditional HVAC systems. LG Electronics USA Commercial Displays LG Electronics commercial digital signage displays communicate entertainment and educational information to visitors and patients through hospital directories, information kiosks and menu boards.
