Description
This LG single-zone ducted heat pump system pairs an inverter outdoor unit with a Multi-Position Air Handling Unit (AHU) to deliver one-zone comfort through ductwork. It’s a strong fit for homeowners and property managers who want a clean, ducted supply/return setup but prefer inverter modulation over basic fixed-speed cycling. That inverter-driven control helps the system track changing demand more smoothly, which can translate to more stable temperatures and less “blast then coast” behavior. It’s also a good option when you need a ducted solution but want a modern refrigerant platform and a product family built for today’s regulatory environment.
Performance snapshot (from provided submittal): cooling capacity (min/rated/max) 7,200 / 16,000 / 17,500 BTU/h, and heating capacity (min/rated/max) 6,000 / 17,000 / 18,000 BTU/h. Efficiency is listed at 16.0 SEER2, 9.80 EER2, and 8.5 HSPF2. Outdoor operating range is listed as 14°F–118°F (cooling) and 4°F–64°F (heating). Refrigerant type is R32, with EEV refrigerant control noted in the system data.
Comfort, noise, and airflow are usually where ducted single-zone systems win, because you can distribute air where the space needs it instead of relying on a single wall-mounted discharge point. Sound pressure is listed at 49/52 dBA for the outdoor unit (cooling/heating), and 35/32/29 dBA for the indoor unit (high/medium/low). Airflow is listed at 600/510/440 CFM (IDU max high/medium/low), and maximum outdoor air volume is listed at 989 CFM. The AHU also includes an access panel for a field-supplied air filter sized 16 x 20 x 1, which helps simplify routine filter management for long-term ownership.
From a planning and purchasing standpoint, this system is listed for 208-230 V, 60 Hz, 1 phase power supply, with MOP 15 A and MCA 12.9 A. Acceptable operating voltage is listed as 187V–253V. Maximum vertical separation between outdoor and indoor is listed at 49.2 ft. One important control detail: this Multi-Position AHU requires an LG wall controller (it does not have an infrared receiver), so make sure your control package is built into the order.
