Announced at the 2024 ENERGY STAR Products Partner Meeting (Sept. 17-19 in Minneapolis), the introduction of these new models highlights LG's commitment to delivering advanced heat pump technology for domestic and residential water heating solutions. They expand LG's portfolio of state-of-the-art water heaters that have quickly gained recognition as an energy-efficient solution designed specifically for eco-conscious homeowners.
"Our new heat pump water heater additions offer enhanced features of demand response and water leakage detection sensing, enabling LG to support even more homeowners as they seek more energy-efficient solutions for their homes," said LG Electronics USA Senior Vice President Steve Scarbrough, general manager of LG Air Conditioning Technologies.
