LG PH Celebrates Success With Launch of the Energy Efficient Multi V i With Cutting-Edge AI Engine

LG takes HVAC innovation to another level with its recent launch of the Multi V™ i, a cutting-edge Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) solution integrated with the company's advanced AI engine. This innovative product is set to make its debut in key global markets, beginning with Europe. Designed to cater to mid- to high-rise buildings, including offices, schools, shopping malls, apartment complexes, and hotels, the Multi V i boasts exceptional energy efficiency and a plethora of intelligent features. These features not only contribute to decreased energy usage but also create a consistently comfortable indoor environment. Additionally, the Multi V i ensures a quieter outdoor setting throughout the year.

During the launch event, LG Philippines also held a thanksgiving get-together to show the brand’s appreciation to its HVAC dealers nationwide. LG gathered the ten best performing accounts across four product categories, namely RAC, SCAC, Multi V, and Overall AC for the year 2022. As an added treat, they were the first ones to see the brand new Multi V i in the flesh.

The LG Multi V i boasts of cutting-edge AI features designed to make operation and maintenance simple and fuss-free. The sophisticated AI engine enables AI Smart Care, which leverages spatial and situational learning to optimize operation; adjusting cooling or heating power according to several variables, including the number of people in the room, humidity levels, and indoor and outside ambient temperature. This enables the product to improve energy savings by up to 24.7 percent. Meanwhile, AI Indoor Space Care helps maintain a steady temperature and reduce energy consumption by automatically turning on indoor units in occupied areas, and turning them off in unoccupied areas. Another efficiency-focused feature, AI Energy Management allows users to set energy consumption targets, which can help to lower the overall power usage of the Multi V i.

The Multi V i’s AI engine powers a variety of smart features, such as Auto Tuning and Remote Upgrade, which help to improve convenience and the overall user experience. The Auto Tuning system automatically tunes the compressor and motor during initial installation or when they need replacing, allowing for faster and easier setup and servicing. Meanwhile, with the Remote Upgrade system, LG’s VRF solution can be automatically updated to the latest software version without an on-site service visit. Furthermore, the Multi V i offers AI Smart Diagnosis, which provides automated system analysis and easy-to-read status reports to help reduce service times and boost reliability.

Aside from the new AI improvements, the Multi V i also offers a host of useful features. One of which is noise target control. Users can set an operational noise limit (from 50 to 70 decibels) in advance to ensure that the sound produced by the outdoor unit does not exceed the level of volume they’ve specified.

Boasting powerful, dependable performance even in extreme weather conditions, the Multi V i has surpassed its predecessor, the Multi V 5, to become the most energy efficient LG VRF solution yet. The unit’s newly designed biomimetic fan and an enhanced air-flow path combine to reduce fan-motor power consumption, resulting in improved energy savings. LG’s outstanding, new model can provide fresh, comfortable indoor air in any season, working at full cooling capacity in temperatures up to 43 degrees Celsius, and full heating capacity in temperatures as low as negative 10 degrees Celsius.

Mr. Sungjae Kim, LGEPH Managing Director, shares a toast to HVAC dealers

Mr. Sungjae Kim, LG PH’s Managing Director, is ecstatic about the new features the Multi V i offers. “LG will continue to deliver complete air solutions leveraging its cutting-edge AI and industry-leading HVAC technologies. We’re beyond excited to eventually offer the Multi V i to the local market. We’re confident that the Multi V i’s outstanding AI engine will offer enhanced energy-savings, a more pleasant indoor environment, and exceptional convenience that’s perfect for the Philippines.”

MusicaFEUropa 14 Choir Competition Set on May 27

All Good Things Do Come to an End: Musica FEUROPA, Far Eastern University’s annual choral competition and festival will have its final run this year.

From just four choirs in 2009 mostly from the City of Manila, the number rose to an all time high of thirty one choirs hailing from all over the Philippines. What used to be a competition for college choirs expanded to two categories: High School and Open including but not limited to university, church, company, government and other ensembles.

Musica FEUROPA became one of the definitive choral competitions in the Philippines.

Tiffany Liong Gabuya, Station Manager of long-time media partner DZFE wrote: “We are all aware that the classical music tradition… which today is multi-national and multi-generational in its practice and appeal—has European roots. In our work of fostering an appreciation for classical music, DZFE continues to support Musica FEUropa inasmuch as it remains one of the too few initiatives here encouraging the hard labor of studying and performing European repertoire. We have also seen how Musica FEUROPA fosters a spirit of patriotism and pride among the participating local choirs. All in all…, the competition has demonstrated the kind of good that can come of a sustained cross-cultural initiative.”

The key criterion for Musica FEUROPA is that each choir has to sing two songs: one from any EU composer in any EU language and one from a Filipino composer in any Filipino language or dialect.

In the last 13 years, choirs sang songs in different European languages such as Czech, Latvian, English, Basque, Spanish, Italian, Latin, German, Finnish, French, French-Flemish, Flemish, Hungarian, Lithuanian and Filipino languages such as Tagalog, Cebuano, Bisaya, Ifugao, Ilokano, Itneg, Kinaray-a, T'boli, Maguindanaoan, Yakan and Hiligaynon.

Through Musica FEUROPA, Filipino choirs and audiences have become more exposed and appreciative of the works of European and Filipino composers.

The impact of Musica FEUROPA is such that in the last 13 years, it has become one of the significant events in the Philippine choral calendar.

Musica FEUROPA definitely leaves a musical legacy when it ends after 14 years.

Musica FEUROPA 14 takes place from 1:30 - 5 PM on May 27, 2023 at the historic Auditorium of Far Eastern University, Manila.

Tickets are at P100 for members of the FEU community, students in general and seniors and P200 for the general public.

The participating choirs for the final round of Musica FEUropa are the NU Chorale, PNU Chorale, SaSeSi, Kammerchor Manila, Tarlac Mannerchor and the Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng San Pablo Chorale.

The adjudicators for this year are internationally recognized stalwarts in the choral industry: Anna Abeleda-Piquero, Arwin Tan, Dr. Ed Manguiat, Jonathan Velasco and Ramon Lijauco, Jr.
