Duct-Free Split Systems
LG HVAC systems offer a range of solutions that are cost efficient,
quiet and attractive. Duct-Free Split systems are “split” into indoor
and outdoor units, and provide a smart alternative to both central
HVAC and window-mounted air conditioners. These inverter heat
pump systems are available in a variety of configurations to suit different cooling and heating situations. Installation by a qualified HVAC
contractor is safe and easy – little to no duct work or sheet metal is
required.
Inverter Systems
LG Single Zone Art Cool™ Mirror Wall Mounted air-source systems
offer the opportunity to minimize ductwork in the same configuration.
The system offers zoning without the need for zone damper systems.
The LG Single Zone Inverter Wall Mount system’s advanced controls
provide exceptional building dehumidification and temperature
control, and can rapidly adapt system operating parameters to the
ever changing building load. The LG Single-Zone Art Cool Mirror
Wall-Mounted system is easy to design, install, and maintain. The
modular design allows occupants to control their environmental
condition, providing individualized control of the setpoint temperature
and allowing occupants to condition only the occupied zones.
Quality Commitment
LG is committed to the success of Duct-Free Split projects. We
provide industry leading technical support during installation and
commissioning. LG offers a variety of classes designed for installers
and servicers to ensure that every system installation is completed
successfully.
Classes are conducted at LG’s training centers and in field locations
at various times throughout the year and upon special request.

Mirror Wall-Mounted
Systems
Choosing an LG Single-Zone Art Cool
Mirror Wall-Mounted product provides
a system designer an edge to engineer
a system with individual control, and
design flexibility with advanced controls.
These single-zone systems are available in a nominal capacity range of 3/4
to 1-1/2 tons. These are best suited for
applications with zones that require heating or cooling, such as residential, and
small business office buildings. SingleZone Art Cool Mirror Wall-Mounted
outdoor and indoor units are available in
208–230V/60Hz/1Ph.
•Quiet operation inside and outside
•Duct-free split system

Art Cool
Adaptable and Flexible
Single-zone wall-mounted duct-free split
systems allow cooling or heating for the
entire residence or just a single room
without the need for invasive ductwork.
There is minimal renovation needed.
Long refrigerant piping lengths allow
for extra design flexibility in indoor unit
installation.
These units may be used for a number of
residential or commercial environments
such as:
•Older homes
•New home construction
•Office buildings
•Restaurants
•Hospitals / Medical facilities
•Schools
•Nursing homes
•Retail establishments
•House of worship
Inverter Technology
Inverter variable-speed duct-free split
systems are measurably quieter and
consume less energy than conventional
air conditioners. The inverter compressor
ramps up or down to match the required
room capacity and maintain the comfort
level. When the selected temperature
is reached, the inverter compressor
operates at low speed to maintain that
comfort level, thereby using less energy.

Due to our policy of continuous product innovation, some specications may change without notication.
LG Electr onics U.S.A., Inc., Englewood Cl iffs, NJ. All r ights reserved. “LG ” is a re gistered trademark of LG C orp.
Single zone systems are equipped with
inverter components that offer superior
load matching and long piping installation.
The product works for optimizing power
consumption in residential and small office
buildings. Utilizing multiple indoor wall mount
units each with custom temperature controls
allow for precise temperature settings in
each zone of the building. Single zone systems allow flexibility in interior design and
complement any decor.
Low Sound Levels
When outdoor units run at full load, they
have a quiet operating sound level. To promote a quiet, comfortable environment, the
LG single zone system indoor units operate
at sound levels as low as 23 dB(A) (19dB(A)
in sleep mode) (Art Cool Mirror Wall-Mounted) and the outdoor units as low as 45 dB(A)
at full load (Art Cool Mirror Wall-Mounted).
All rotating components are soft-started by
the controller using digitally controlled inverters, which reduce undesirable noise caused
by fans and compressors cycling on and off.
Comfort Control at Its
Best
Unlike traditional air conditioning control
systems, which use thermostatic controls to
Mirror Wall Mounted Engineering Manual
maintain room temperatures, LG single zone
™
inverter controls continuously vary the indoor
unit fan speed and refrigerant flow.
LG single zone one-to-one systems continuously measure the room temperatures and
adjust system operations accordingly to
Art Cool
maintain set temperature.
The outdoor unit responds by varying the
compressor speed and outdoor fan motors as needed to maintain system operating pressure. As a result, the single zone
systems deliver targeted space temperature
control.
Inverter Driven
The rotary (9k/12k Btu/h systems) and
twin-rotary (18k Btu/h systems) compressors are optimized to maximize compressor
efficiency, which reduces power consumption and monthly utility bills. This latest
inverter technology allows single zone
system outdoor units to vary the compressor
motor shaft speed to deliver an appropriate
amount of cooling to the indoor unit. Precise
refrigerant volume delivery translates into
long periods with coil surface temperatures
below dew point and minimizes compressor
and fan component run time which may lead
to lower utility usage.
Simplified Installation
Cooling and heating applications that use
single zone systems simplify and reduce the
mechanical and control system design time.
The designer no longer has to be concerned
with interconnecting chilled and condenser
water piping, air-distribution duct systems,
matching and selecting chillers, towers,
pumps, coils, fans, air handlers, or Variable
Air Volume (VAV) boxes.
Operating Range
Single zone systems have a nominal capacity range of 3/4 to 1-1/2 tons (depending on
outdoor/indoor units).
Outdoor unit operating ranges for single
zone systems:
Cooling: 14°F DB to 118°F DB
Heating: -4°F WB to 65°F WB
Installing an optional Low Ambient Wind
Baffle Kit will allow operation down to 0°F in
cooling mode for these single zone systems.
Compact Size
Single zone outdoor units have the following
footprints.
LSU090HSV4, LSU120HSV4
(WxHxD (in)) 30 5/16 x 21-1/2 x 11-5/16.
LSU180HSV4
(WxHxD (in)) 34-1/4 x 31-1/2 x 12-5/8.
Fin Design with GoldFin™ Coating
All single zone outdoor units are provided
with large surface coils made of copper
tubes with louvered aluminum fins designed
to maximize unit operating efficiency over a
wide range of ambient conditions.
Standard from the factory, every single
zone outdoor unit coil fin surface is
coated with LG’s exclusive GoldFin™
anti-corrosive coating designed to prevent
natural surface corrosion of the aluminum fins. This maintains heat transfer
properties of the coil for an extended time.
A hydrophilic coating is applied to the
outdoor unit coil fin surface over the GoldFin
coating. This coating enhances the development of heavier water droplets gathering on
the fin surface. As a result, the droplets roll
off the fin surfaces, delaying the point when
frost forms on the coil surface during heating operation. This coating also makes it
possible to easily clean the outdoor unit coil
using a mild soap.
