LG Electronics has launched its Dual Inverter Air Conditioner with “Mosquito Away” feature in Nigeria to fight the menace of malaria, marking a new era in air conditioning technology.
Designed to deliver efficient cooling while ensuring a mosquito-free indoor environment, the Mosquito Away AC is a first-of-its-kind solution in the market.
The Mosquito Away feature, powered by ultrasonic wave technology, repels mosquitoes by generating sound frequencies inaudible to humans.
This advanced technology has been rigorously tested and certified by the Institute for Advanced Medical Research and Training (IAMRAT) at the University College Hospital, Ibadan, with results confirming its efficacy in achieving a 92 per cent mosquito repulsion rate and an 88 per cent knockdown rate indoors.
Speaking at the launch event in Lagos, over the weekend, Master Trainer, LG Electronics, Mr. Olugbenga Ogunbayo, said: “The ‘Mosquito Away’ AC by LG is the first of its kind in Nigeria!
“This cutting-edge technology ensures not only enhanced comfort but also improved safety for households, addressing a critical need in the fight against mosquito-borne diseases.”
The LG dual cool air conditioners also feature LG’s renowned Dual Inverter Compressor, offering fast, quiet, and energy-efficient cooling that uses up to 70 per cent less energy than traditional models.
Additional standout features include Volt Care, which ensures uninterrupted operation even during voltage fluctuations, providing a reliable cooling experience in Nigeria’s often unstable power grid environment.
There is also Gen Mode+, which offers adjustable energy consumption to support optimal performance when running on generator power, allowing for continued cooling without overloading appliances.
The innovation’s ThinQ App also empowers users to monitor energy consumption conveniently from anywhere.
With its dual functionality—combining mosquito repellent and superior air conditioning—the LG Mosquito Away AC addresses both comfort and safety concerns for Nigerian consumers.
Managing Director, Fouani Nig. Ltd, Mr. Mohammed Fouani, highlighted the customer-centric innovation: “By responding to the needs of Nigerian households, LG continues to deliver solutions that promote well-being and peace of mind. The Mosquito Away AC represents a step forward in creating safer, healthier, and more comfortable living spaces.”
The LG Mosquito Away Dual Inverter Air Conditioner is now available at all LG and Fouani showrooms, as well as authorized dealers across Nigeria.
