THIS IS THE INDOOR UNIT ONLY. THIS UNIT CAN ALSO BE USED AS PART OF A MULTI-ZONE SYSTEM WITH COMPATIBLE LG OUTDOOR UNITS. This unit is NOT backwards compatible with previous generations of single zone outdoor units and will only work in combination with the LUU189HV. With 18,000 BTUs cooling and 20,000 BTUs heating capacities, the LG LVN181HV4 Multi-Position Air Handler, when connected to the corresponding LUU189HV Outdoor Compressor, has a SEER rating of 19.2 and an HSPF rating of 10.4. As a single zone mini split, this system is Energy Star Qualified and has an EER of 13.3. If the benefits of having separate zones is appealing to you but the look of a traditional indoor unit of a mini-split is not, look no further. LG now gives you the opportunity to benefit from inverter technology, zone comfort control and flexibility of installation. The new ducted, vertical air handler (VAHU) is really a multi-position air handler. It offers vertical upflow and downflow (conversion kit required, sold separately) as well as horizontal left and right configurations. In addition to the 4-way installation possibilities, the LG LVN181HV4 Multi-Position VAHU is also compatible with LG Multi Zone Outdoor Compressors (Tri-Zone or more). When installed as part of a multi-zone system, ratings will differ. Whether you find yourself having to replace your existing central system, you are in need of a new cooling and heating system, or you are looking to separate your home or office into specific zones, LG gives you options! The LG Multi-Position Air Handler can be used in addition to or as a replacement for your existing central system, giving you more zoning options. Also, the vertical air handler offers you the option of adding electric back-up heat. This indoor unit can be installed in a basement or attic - depending on your ducting and installation needs. Features include: - Inverter Technology: inverter heat pump air conditioners use a variable speed compressor, rather than the constant speed found in conventional ACs. Instead of shutting off once the temperature is achieved, the inverter compressor continues to operate at a low speed to maintain the temperature. It is quieter to operate and uses less energy than conventional air conditioners

About Duct-Free Systems
A duct-free system, also known as a “split” air conditioner system, is made up of or includes two components: an indoor unit to deliver conditioned air to the room, and an outdoor unit located outside of the house. Compact refrigerant lines run between the two units, eliminating the need for bulky ductwork. Duct-free systems are ideal for older homes that have no ductwork, room additions, or areas in homes that just never seem to be the right temperature or are never comfortable.
LG duct-free systems are available in a range of sizes and styles--including systems that can heat and cool multiple rooms with a single outdoor unit to fit almost any need. The indoor units are available in many different types to fit with the look and feel of your home. |

FAQ'S ON DUCTLESS MINI SPLIT AIR CONDITIONERS - MOST COMMON QUESTIONS! |
|
What are mini split air conditioners?
Like the central air conditioner units, ductless mini split air conditioners have two main components: an outdoor compressor/condenser, and an indoor air-handling unit. A conduit, which houses the power cable, refrigerant tubing, suction tubing, and a condensate drain, links the outdoor and indoor units through a small hole (3 inches usually) that is drilled in the wall of the building. The main advantages of mini split air conditioners are their small size and flexibility for zoning or heating and cooling individual rooms. The number depends on how much heating or cooling is required for the building or each zone (which is also affected by how well the building is insulated). Since each of the split air conditioner zones/rooms will have it's own thermostat, you only need to condition that area when someone is present, which saves energy and money. If you are in a office building at a higher floor, you can also install Outside Compressor using our Wall Bracket.
How does it work?
For example the our mini splits use a high quality compressor and environmentally friendly green refrigerant to cool your home, and an innovative heat pump technology to keep your interiors warm in cold weather. The near silent operation is made possible by installing the compressor outside your home or offi ce. The air handler (indoor AC unit) in your dwelling is designed for ideal climate control, allowing you to cool or heat or dehumidify your interiors. You can conveniently adjust the fan speed, air flow direction, and oscillating louvers via remote control, or simply set the 24 hour timer for care free operation.
How much do they cost to run?
These energy efficient units provide localized cooling and heating for certain parts of your home or office, rather than cooling or heating other areas that are not occupied. This localized climate control enables you to reduce your energy bills. SEER ratings we have is the best standard in industry and mini split AC's are most energy efficient AC's you can ever find.

What size unit is good for my application? How to choose the right AC?
Keep a pen and paper next to you and write down answers to below questions first. Then move to step 2.
A. First question is how many air handlers (indoor units) would you need?
Answer to this comes from the number of rooms you want to cool or heat. Remember since this is ductless, you will need ONE air handler per room. But if your kitchen, dinning area and living room are all connected and open to each other, in that case you will need just ONE for this entire area. But if your dinning room has walls around it with only a door size opening from the kitchen, in that case you may want to put ONE in kitchen and ONE in dinning room.
B. Are the rooms well insulated? If not we will call it "Situation B"
C. How many windows you have in each room? Are these energy efficient windows? (single pane or double pane windows). If you have 2-3 windows in one room and they are single pane windows that are not energy efficient, we will call it a "Situation C"
D. Then you need to know the height of your ceiling. Is it a regular ceiling or more than 10 ft high? If it has a high ceiling of 15 or 20 ft, we will call it is "Situation D"
E. Do you have any heat generating source in these rooms like sunlight, equipments, computers/server or kitchen etc? If yes, we will call it a "Situation E"
F. Last but not the least you need to know the sq ft of each room.
Once you have the above info, it gets simple then. Below table will help you decide and give you a approx. estimation of what you really need.

For room more than 1000 sq ft, example it is a office space with 1500 sq ft, you will need more than one unit in that one big room for better circulation. So you can buy a 2-3 sinagles zone units or dual zone, trizone or a quadzone depending upon how big the room is as per above calculations. |
|
|
|
|
Now once you have decided how many units you need, it is time to see what features you want. Low Ambience Feature
For example if you live in New York where the temperature goes below 15 deg quiet a few times in a year and if you need this AC unit to do the heating job as well in the winter time, in that case DO NOT buy the standard SEER 13 without Low Ambience. You need the unit that has Low Ambience operation as they can produce heat in temperature as low as minus 4 deg or zero deg depending upon which unit you end up buying. YMGI/LG/Friedrich/Haier for example have units that produce heat in temperature as low as zero deg.
HIGH SEER AND INVERTER FEATURE
Units with high SEER and inverter techonlogy save you a lot of money on electricity bills. As much as $50 per month approx. So if you have a high SEER unit with Inverter which is $300 - $400 more than the standard unit with SEER 13, you still will be better off buying the expensive one, as after 6-8 months savings are all yours plus such units are lot more advanced with many other good features.
How does Inverter work?
INVERTER technology delivers precise cooling or heating power as per your choice.
It works faster and saves energy while ensuring uniform temperature.
In Depth details:
The inverter tag found on some air conditioners signifies the ability of the unit to continuously regulate its thermal power flow.
Traditional reverse-cycle air-conditioners use a heat pump that is either working at maximum capability or switched off, as the compressor's speed cannot be varied. In order to regulate temperature a thermistor is used to measure the ambient air temperature and switch the compressor on when the ambient air temperature is too far from the desired temperature.
Air-conditioners bearing the inverter tag use a variable-frequency drive to control the speed of the motor and thus the compressor. The variable-frequency drive uses a rectifier to convert the incoming AC current to DC and then uses pulse-width modulation of the DC current within an inverter to produce AC current of a desired frequency. The AC current is used to drive a brushless motor or an induction motor. As the speed of a brushless motor is synchronised to the frequency of the AC current, it is thus possible to build a compressor that can be run at different speeds. Similarly, the voltage and frequency can be varied as needed to efficiently run an induction motor at different speeds. A microcontroller can then sample the current ambient air temperature and adjust the speed of the compressor appropriately.
Eliminating stop-start cycles increases efficiency, extends the life of components, and helps eliminate sharp fluctuations in the load the air-conditioner places on the power supply.
The inverter principle has been applied to a wide range of household appliances including microwave ovens, washing machines, and so on.
If you want Ductless split air conditioner with install kit in your package deal
Usually brands like YMGI, Senville, AirCon, Klimaire will have a package deal with installation kit included. But other brands will not come with install kits at all. In such cases we offer Copper Tubings, Service valve adpater, Condensor pads, Wall Brackets etc as optional accessories to buy. Your installer probably will already have them in his truck. If not, you can buy them separately from us when buying brands like Mitsubishi, LG, Sanyo, Friedrich etc.
Is this something that I could install myself?
YES and NO. Depends if you are good technically. You may or may not be able to do it. Some people do the handyman work on the indoor and outdoor unit and pay a small amount to an electrician to hard wire the outdoor unit and pay HVAC professional to vaccuum the lines before releasing the refrigerant. Some people choose to do it all by themselves with their past experience. Manufacturer recommends to have it installed by an HVAC professional. Any of your local professional air conditioning company should be able to install it easily for couple of hundred dollars. It is worth spending this money initially, this way you can have it installed professionally and enjoy the benefits of energy efficient mini split AC for year's to come. You may loose your warranty in some cases if you install this unit yourself. Some brands specifically require you to have an invoice from your HVAC installer to provide warranty help. So make sure to read warranty details before making your purchase.
But How easy are the units to install? For Complete Installation Guide, you can click here To ensure an easy installation and fault free operation, we recommend the unit be installed by a professional HVAC installer. Some brands will not cover warranty if installed unprofessionally by homeowner.
Does mini split air conditioner have air purification capabilities? Air filters?
Yes. Most of them have Cold catalyst air filter. BUT LG IS THE BEST IN AIR PURIFICATION WITH IT'S PLASMA AIR PURIFICATION CAPABILITIES. SEE VIDEO BELOW
How noisy are the units?
WHISPER QUIET OPERATION is one of the many reasons why they are very popular. The indoor units are typically no noisier than a standard domestic fan, but as they do make some noise, consideration should be given to their location.

Why choose a mini split air conditioner? What are the advantages of ductless split AC?
=> Whsiper quiet operation.
=> Energy efficient, save money on electric bills!
=> Lot cheaper than central air conditioner.
=> Easy installation procedure.
=> Long term solution, good for new additions or when replacing existing air conditioner.
A mini split air conditioner is a cost effective choice to central air conditioning. However, it is typically more expensive than a wall or window air conditioner and you need a professional to install it. Since the compressor sits outside the split air conditioner is very quiet and efficient. Since mini splits have no ducts, they avoid the energy losses associated with the ductwork of central forced air systems. Duct losses can account for more than 30% of energy consumption for space conditioning, especially if the ducts are in an unconditioned space such as an attic.
Mini split air conditioners are also sometimes easier to install than other types of air conditioning systems. For example, the hook-up between the outdoor and indoor units generally requires only a three inch hole through a wall for the conduit. Also, most manufacturers of this type of system can provide a variety of lengths of connecting conduits. So, if necessary, you can locate the outdoor unit as far away as 50 feet from the indoor evaporator depending upon which mini split AC you buy. This makes it possible to cool rooms on the front side of a building or house with the compressor in a more advantageous or inconspicuous place on the outside of the building.In comparison to other add-on systems, split air conditioners offer more flexibility in interior design options. The indoor air handlers can be suspended from a ceiling, mounted flush into a drop ceiling, or hung on a wall. Floor-standing models are also available with LG. Most indoor units have profiles of about seven inches deep and usually come with sleek, high tech-looking jackets.

What is HSPF?
HSPF is the abbreviation for the Heating Seasonal Performance Factor. This factor rates the efficient operation of the heating portion of the heat pump. As the HSPF increases, the unit functions at a more efficient level. New units in the United States have HSPF ratings from 7.0 to 9.4.
Heating Seasonal Performance Factor-the total heating output in B.T.U's during it's normal usage period for heating divided by the total electrical energy input in watt hours during the same period
What is a Heat Pump and How Does It Work?
A Heat Pump is an electrical device that takes heat from one place and transfers it to another. A heat pump transfers heat by circulating environmentally friendly refrigerant through a cycle of evaporation and condensation. A compressor then pumps the refrigerant between two heat exchange coils. In one coil the refrigerant is evaporated at low pressure and absorbs the heat from the surroundings. The refrigerant is then compressed on the way to the other coil where it condenses at high pressure. Now the heat pump releases the heat it absorbed earlier in the cycle. This process is reversible for the summer months and the heat pump acts as a cooling system.
Why Purchase A Heat Pump?
A heat pump is the most energy efficient way to heat and cool your home.
Heat pumps utilize the renewable heat sources in our surroundings in order to produce heat. The air, ground and water provide useful heat that is warmed up by the heat pump and delivered into the home. Sources such as the air, ground and water provide more heat than realized and the heat pump makes use of these sources that are continuously heated by the sun.
WIth British Columbia's mild weather conditioins, having a heat pump is the most logical, environmentally friendly and efficient source of in-home heating and cooling.
How Do You Measure A Heat Pump's Efficiency?
Heat pumps provide both cooling and heating, so the efficiency is measured in two different ways. When the heat pump cools, a SEER rating or Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio measures the efficiency. The SEER rating is similar to gas mileage on a car. The higher the SEER rating the more efficient it is. Most of today's heat pumps have a SEER rating between 13.0 and 19.0 SEER. When the heat pump heats the home, a Heating Seasonal Performance Factor or HSPF rates the efficiency. The HSPF rating works the same way as the SEER rating does. The higher the HSPF, the more efficient the system is. Most new units today have a HSPF rating between 7.7 to 9.0 HSPF.
How does an air conditioner work?
An air conditioner seems as if it cools your home's air, but it actually makes your home less warm by removing heat from the indoor air and transferring that heat to the outdoor air. Heat is extracted from the home by passing indoor air across a refrigerant coil in the indoor unit. Refrigerant lines then carry the heat to the outdoor unit, where it is released into the outside air. The cooling cycle continues until the indoor temperature reaches the thermostat setting.
What does SEER mean?
Season Energy Efficiency Ratio. It is a system for rating the efficiency of air conditioning equipment. SEER is calculated by dividing the cooling capacity in BTU/H, of a continuously operating air conditioner, by the electric power input, or watts, of power consumed. The higher the SEER, the less the unit should cost to operate.
What is R-410A?
R-410A is a hydro fluorocarbon (HFC), which is an environmentally friendly refrigerant that is considered by most to be the likely replacement for R-22.
What is Freon/R-22?
Hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC), known as R-22 has been used as a refrigerant for more than 40 years by HVAC manufacturers. While HCFC's are considered safe for the environment they do contain chlorine which is classed as an ozone-depleting chemical. The Clean Air Act set a target date of January 1, 2010 after which HVAC manufacturers can no longer build products that use R-22. Manufacturers of refrigerants will still be allowed to produce R-22 until January 1, 2020 after which time only recovery and recycling will provide R-22 for servicing older installed systems.
Is The Refrigerant Used In A Heat Pump Safe For The Environment?
Both Carrier and Lennox heat pumps use envronmentally friendly R-410A refrigerant. This refrigerant does not deplete the ozone layer and is seen as the logical replacement for Freon R-22. Carrier beat the competition by six years and introduced Puron refrigerant or R-410A. Use of R-410A adds to the efficiency and realiability of a heat pump.
Are there any good reasons for replacing my existing system if it is still functioning?
You should consider replacing your system if it is old, and therefore less efficient or if it will probably need major repairs in the near future. New systems can be 60% more efficient than systems built only 10 years ago. Normal wear and tear can reduce the efficiency of your system. Another costly season of utility bills or paying for an expensive failed part can go a long way toward the cost of a new system.
How do I know what to buy?
Make sure the unit that you select is the correct size for your needs. Systems that are too large or too small can be inefficient. We would be pleased to provide an energy analysis to show you the true operating cost. If someone in the family has allergies, an air filtration system should be part of the installation.
What does it mean to zone my house and why should I zone my house?
A zoning system is designed for the many ways you use your home. Maybe you're caught up in family "thermostat wars"? Or perhaps you have unoccupied areas that do not need conditioning? A Lennox® zoning system allows you to divide your home into separate areas, giving you the comfort and control you've always wanted. The main benefits of residential zoning are: Comfort Zoning meets the specific temperature and airflow requirements of one area, without affecting other areas. Efficiency A properly designed zoning system can save you hundreds of dollars in energy costs each year. Control Zoning divides the home into different areas and comfort into different levels, giving you more choices and control than ever before. Quiet Performance When integrated with variable speed and/or two-stage HVAC systems, zoning allows your heating and cooling equipment to deliver peak performance and efficiency without continually operating at peak capacity. Lower speeds mean lower sound levels.
What else might be needed if I replace my old system?
Beside the installation of new equipment, other items need to be inspected and possibly replaced, such as, thermostat, ducts, refrigerant piping, electrical service, wiring, condensate piping, insulation, flue piping and terminations, chimney liner, slabs, filter, registers, grills, drain pans and evaporator coil.
Should I change my indoor coil?
When replacing your air conditioner or heat pump the answer is probably yes. If only the outdoor portion is changed the efficiency of the entire system could be lowered and consequently your savings could be less.
How long should my unit last?
With proper maintenance, industry averages suggest that an air conditioner should last 12-15 years (high humidity/salt air applications may be less than that) and a gas furnace should last as long as 20 or 25 years.
How often should I change or clean my filters?
Dirty filters should be replaced to prevent equipment from working harder, resulting in energy waste and possibly causing damage to your unit. Filters should generally be replaced every month when the system is running. Filters should be replaced with the same kind and size as your original filter. If the filter is not disposable, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning it.
Should I cover my outdoor unit in the winter?
Covering the unit is not necessary. Air conditioners are built to withstand a wide range of climate changes. Rain even helps keep your unit clean. Since heat pumps run all year long, they should not be covered.
Should I set my thermostat fan to the "ON" position so the fan runs all the time? (not available with all brands and models)?
There are advantages. One is full-time filtering of the air in your home. Another is that you can maintain a more even temperature throughout your home.
What causes indoor air pollution?
Many everyday household items contribute to poor indoor air quality. Compounds found in carpeting, furniture, upholstery and drapery fabric consistently emit gas or fumes. Other sources of pollutants can include, but are not limited to, cleaning agents, paints and personal care products. Also, newer homes that are tightly sealed for energy efficiency tend to limit air circulation, which can contribute to a buildup of contaminants. Likewise, things like weather stripping and storm doors keep stale air in and fresh air out.
How can I improve my indoor air quality?
There are five basic strategies for outsmarting indoor air pollution: Identify the problem:
The first step toward better indoor air is to identify the types of pollutants present in the home. The best way to do this is to schedule an in-home air-quality test. Reduce concentrations of particles and bioaerosols
Routine cleaning and housekeeping helps reduce indoor air pollutants, but these simple fixes are not cure-alls. Some contaminants are so small that they may escape through the vacuum or never land on a surface. Lennox HEPA filtration systems, electronic air cleaners, high-efficiency air filters capture even the smallest of particles and bioaerosols. Reduce or eliminate chemical vapors and odors
Chemical vapors and odors can come from many different sources inside and outside the home. Once inside the home, these potentially toxic pollutants circulate through the ductwork, entering every room and living space. A Lennox air purification system removes and destroys 50% of household chemical vapors and odors within 24 hours. Ventilate Your Home
Today's modern homes are well-insulated and sealed to conserve energy, which means airborne pollutants have no way to escape. Lennox® ventilation systems help remove particles and bioaerosols by exchanging stale, recirculated indoor air with fresh, filtered outside air.
Control Temperature and Humidity
Improper humidity levels and high temperatures can actually increase concentrations of particles and bioaerosols. Lennox SignatureStat™ and thermostats regulate moisture levels and temperatures to improve indoor air quality and enhance comfort.
