Virtual showroom is LG’s cool option

KOREA: LG Electronics has launched the LG HVAC Virtual Experience, a new, interactive online showroom demonstrating the companies portfolio of air conditioning and heat pump solutions.

Visitors can traverse a number of application environments – residential apartment, residential villa, office general, office high-rise, retail and hotel. Customers can roam their selected 3D environment using a mouse or touchscreen device, while clicking on menus takes them to additional information like specifications, features, product videos and case studies for each model. 

In addition, the virtual showroom allows visitors to see the behind-the-scenes details and technologies. By pressing on-screen airflow and piping buttons, visitors can uncover how air travels in an air conditioner or air purifier and how pipes direct water and refrigerant through a system. They can also virtually switch operational modes and observe how airflow changes from one air conditioner to another. 

The showroom also demonstrates LG’s commitment to ensuring a sustainable future, highlighting innovative LG technologies, such as the energy-efficient R1 Compressor, and the company’s early adoption of the eco-friendly R32 refrigerant.

Beyond the technology and science, the showroom also allows visitors to check out LG’s designs to see how they match various virtual interiors.
