LG Electronics has launched its new wall mounted air conditioner, Titan, with the world’s first cyclotron plasma and twin cooling technologies.

Designed specifically for use in homes in the Middle East, the Titan responds to customer needs in the region by offering faster cooling and providing safer indoor air through the industry leading technologies.

“Research has shown that indoor air quality is a major concern for people in the Middle East,” said H S Paik, president of LG Electronics Gulf FZE.

“The Titan is the perfect alternative to natural ventilation, which is essential for healthy air but insufficient in this region,” he added.

“Just as important as this air conditioner’s ability to cool homes quickly is its ability to help clean sand, dirt, odors and allergens from the air. The Titan will solidify its position as the leading air conditioner in the Middle East market.”

According to consumer research conducted by LG, homes in desert climates need a fast, powerful air conditioner to live comfortably.

Titan’s dynamic double vane technology uses two wide vanes that direct air across an area up to 10 metres. This eliminates air conditioning dead zones, helping to maintain an even temperature throughout a room.

For larger rooms, LG also developed a circulator, creating the world’s first twin cooling system. When positioned on the wall opposite the main cooling unit, this second unit helps cool large homes up to 40 per cent faster and 70 per cent more evenly.

The circulator also humidifies the dry air with its water plasma technology, which uses sterilized, bacteria-free water.

To further increase its cooling effectiveness, the Titan’s selectable swing modes can be set to sweep air across a room in several different directions, including seven vertical adjustment modes, five horizontal modes, and left and right full swing modes.

This improves comfort levels by redirecting airflow to prevent it from blowing directly on family members and guests.

To help purify the air, the Titan incorporates the world’s first cyclotron plasma technology, which improves the collection of dust by up to 30 per cent compared to a conventional plasma kit.

With LG’s innovative filtration system, the new air conditioner reduces allergens in the air by as much as 70 per cent. An antibacterial pre-filter first reduces pollens, mould and large dust from the air.

The triple filter on the underside helps reduce symptoms associated with exposure to various organic compounds including formaldehyde. As a final step, a nano carbon filter traps fine odorous particles to completely remove odors from the home.

The new air conditioner also features an auto alarm for filter cleaning, simple remote control with a wide display and one touch function, and a stylish exterior design including interior lighting, artistic patterns and hidden display.

The Titan will be available across the Middle East by end of March, said a statement. – TradeArabia News Service
