Offering an expanded nationwide network of technicians to support dealers and an industry-first customer care service with ThinQ™, LG Builder extends LG's trademark reliability, innovation and value to the builder, remodeler and designer communities. LG is displaying new ENERGY STAR® certified home appliances across three diverse appliance brand portfolios – LG, LG STUDIO and Signature Kitchen Suite:

  • The fast-growing Signature Kitchen Suite brand reflects LG's commitment to producing the industry's best built-in luxury appliances with leading-edge technology, enabling "Technicurean™" home chefs to prepare and preserve food in the best possible ways. New for 2023 is the first-of-its-kind 48-inch built-in French Door Refrigerator featuring a functional and innovative convertible drawer with five preset temperatures ranging from 41⁰F to -7⁰F to allow for precise food preservation. Signature Kitchen Suite is also expanding its luxury product line with a Wi-Fi connected 36-inch gas cooktop featuring five powerful brass burners and a porcelain coated cooking service, as well as a new one-hour complete cycle 24-inch PowerSteam® stainless steel dishwasher.

  • The design-driven LG STUDIO collection that offers a more refined and contemporary look comprises an array of innovative appliances with advanced technologies for the kitchen and laundry room. The LG STUDIO kitchen appliance lineup features built-in and freestanding options with exclusive features and premium finishes for those with a discerning eye for design. New product introductions for this year include MoodUP™ by LG STUDIO, which allow consumers to customize the refrigerator to suit their mood using colorful LED panels. With more than 190,000 color combinations for the upper and lower (refrigerator) door panels, consumers can instantly change and personalize the kitchen atmosphere via the LG ThinQ app. The new 21-cubic-foot refrigerator also brings music to the kitchen with an integrated Bluetooth® speaker. The fridge's LED panel colors can sync with the songs playing from streaming apps or the Music Collection playlist featured on the ThinQ app.
  • LG Home Appliances offer builders cutting-edge upgradeable appliances designed with a modern aesthetic, convenient features and time-saving technology, delivering the ultimate customer experience and value. Noteworthy 2023 kitchen appliances from LG include the LG Mirror InstaView® Counter-Depth MAX™ with WiFi,  the QuadWash® Pro dishwasher, InstaView® Combination Double Wall Oven, and Electric Double Slide-in Range, all of which boast powerful, efficient and long-lasting performance. LG is also expanding its top-rated laundry lineup with two new WashTower™ models – the new WashTower Compact and WashTower with LCD that features Dual Inverter Heat Pump technology to reduce energy consumption. 

HVAC: Energy-efficient residential heating and cooling solutions from LG Air Conditioning Technologies USA highlighted at the show include ducted and duct-free options – from the ENERGY STAR certified Art Cool™ Gallery picture frame and Art Cool Mirror indoor units to the superior heating performance of LGRED° technology and convenience of the ceiling mounted 4-way cassette.

Home 8 enables homebuilders to offer time-of-use functionalities with 14.4 kWh of useable capacity and 15.8kWh name plate capacity to power homes day and night.

LG home appliances, HVAC systems, and energy storage systems are designed with connectivity, quality and energy efficiency in mind.

These Wi-Fi-enabled smart devices can be managed, monitored and controlled remotely as a complete turnkey solution with the LG ThinQ app.

INDUSTRY LEADING SERVICE: LG has a dedicated team to support builders and dealers with general service questions, service status checks, service call scheduling and warranty inquiries.
