"Manage Bathroom Temperature, Humidity, and Hygiene All at Once"
LG Electronics will launch the "LG Puricare Bath Air System," an all-in-one solution that manages bathroom temperature, humidity, and hygiene, on January 19. The new product leverages LG's premium home appliance technology.
This new release is LG Electronics' first air care solution dedicated to bathrooms. It maximizes performance and convenience by incorporating customer needs such as temperature and humidity detection with automatic operation, external odor blocking, and easy hygiene management.
The product detects temperature and humidity in real time and automatically switches between heating, ventilation, and air circulation modes. By using the space care mode, the bathroom can be preheated with warm air when it's cold, and stuffiness can be relieved with air circulation and ventilation when humidity is high. When the bathroom reaches 22 degrees Celsius and 50% humidity, the system automatically switches to standby mode.
Notably, the dual exhaust feature allows for the addition of an extra exhaust fan to the main unit, enabling faster air circulation compared to a single fan and maintaining a comfortable environment. The system is also equipped with a backflow prevention device that blocks external dust and odors even when the product is turned off.
LG Electronics' differentiated UVnano technology has been applied for hygiene management. The fan that generates airflow is sterilized 99.99% with a UV-LED, and the filter can be easily removed from the magnetic panel and washed with water for simple self-care. The body care mode, which dries water off the body after a shower, allows users to adjust the direction of the airflow conveniently via remote control or smartphone app.
The product can be installed in about one hour without any additional construction beyond drilling. The one-time purchase price for the premium model is 990,000 won. For those using the home appliance subscription service, it is available for 24,900 won per month based on a six-year plan.
Bae Jeonghyeon, Executive Vice President and Head of the SAC Business Division at LG Electronics, said, "With this product, which embodies our premium home appliance technology, we aim to provide a differentiated customer experience by keeping bathroom air comfortable throughout all four seasons."
