LG Air Conditioners

LG window and portable air conditioners are cool and convenient, with features like Wi-Fi connectivity, voice control, and easy maintenance.

What you should know about LG window-mounted air conditioners

LG window air conditioners are easy to set up, connected to a standard 115V electrical outlet and offering powerful cooling for different sized rooms. Energy Star certified for efficiency, 6,000 to 14,000 BTU models offer different fan speeds that you can adjust as desired.

With the ability to dehumidify the air as well, some LG wall-mounted air conditioner models even have a supplemental heat option for cooler days. Another feature you’ll find in dual inverter LG window air conditioners is an auto restart in the event of a storm or power outage.

Most LG window air conditioners come with a remote for easy operation. But for even greater convenience and control, some are also Wi-Fi-enabled. Use the LG ThinQ app to control them from anywhere using your phone, while with Alexa and Google Assistant, you can use voice commands to turn the air up, down, adjust the temperature, and more.

What you should know about LG portable air conditioners

If you prefer an LG portable air conditioner that’s easy to move from room to room, LG has quiet, energy efficient dual inverter models with oscillating air vents that circulate air evenly throughout a room. They come on casters for effortlessly wheeling them from one room to another.

The most convenient about many LG portable air conditioners is that they feature a bucket-less design. Moisture created from the mix of the hot and cool air is evaporated inside so there’s no bucket of water to empty at the end of each day.

With removable, washable filters, and LED displays, LG air conditioner with remote included with some are super easy to set up and operate, often with a window installation kit included. Many models also feature Wi-Fi to work with the LG ThinQ app, and accept voice commands via Alexa and Google Assistant, just like the window air conditioners.

How do you choose the right LG air conditioner and what are BTUs?

British Thermal Units (BTUs) measure heat, and an air conditioner with a higher BTU number offers more efficient cooling for larger-sized rooms. A DOE label from the Department of Energy with an ASHRAE rating deducts the heat a portable air conditioner generates from this number to report a more accurate cooling power: a 14,000 BTU air conditioner, for example, might be 10,000 BTU, DOE. What does this all mean?

BTU suggests to the size of the room the window or portable air conditioner can cool to help you buy the right one. A 10,000 BTU portable air conditioner, for example, can cool a room 400-450 square feet in size.

Choosing between an LG portable and window air conditioner comes down to budget, where you live (you might not be able to install a window AC in a rental home), available space (portable AC units are larger), and the size of the space you want to cool: window AC units are generally more effective at cooling larger rooms, but they’re not as easy to uninstall nor move from room to room.
