LG Broadens MultiSITE Controls Suite, Providing More Comprehensive Solutions For Building Automation

ALPHARETTA, Ga., April 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Air conditioning technologies leader LG Electronics is continuing to pave the way for the future of connected buildings with the expansion of its award-winning controls platform, LG MultiSITE™. Empowering building owners and operators to optimize their operations and efficiency, especially with Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) systems, the MultiSITE lineup is packed with advanced features that deliver more building synergy and accessibility than ever before. The new products expand the current LG MultiSITE control offering, enabling the company's commercial customers to offer more comprehensive and holistic solutions in the small-to-medium building segment.

Designed to meet the needs of properties with diverse controls and efficiency demands, the LG MultiSITE suite offers a one-stop-shop for building automation by streamlining the installation and integration of LG VRF equipment and controls. Prior to this offering, customers needed to use the VRF manufacturer's proprietary controllers and integrate with third-party solutions in order to manage building operational efficiencies. By eliminating the need to integrate with third-party solutions, the LG MultiSITE suite provides a single source solution to ease installation, management and maintenance for building owners, enabling them to seamlessly manage operations, while delivering the full benefits of VRF technology. For facility managers of small-to-medium buildings especially, LG MultiSITE offers an affordable alternative to complex installations and maintenance costs associated with the configuration of competitive systems from different manufacturers.

Supplying owners of small-to-medium sized building with the tools they need to make the best operational choices for their businesses and bottom lines, the expanded MultiSITE suite of solutions is composed of the LG MultiSITE Edge 10, NC8000 Network Controller and MS8250 VAV Room Controller.
