LG Electronics (LG) East Africa has launched its premium LG ARTCOOL Air Conditioner in Kenya, coming at a time when the country’s air conditioning market is projected to grow at 12.56% in 2025 and peaking at 13.17% in 20261.
This growth is driven by rising urbanisation, increasing middle-class incomes, and the demand for energy-efficient appliances. Regionally, sub-Saharan Africa’s HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) sector is expected to surpass $5.23 billion in value by 2030, according to market data2.
Addressing guests, partners, and media during the launch in Nairobi, LG East Africa President, Donghun Lee, described the ARTCOOOL model as a benchmark for “technology meeting design,” and as a clear signal of LG’s long-term investment in the region.
“This product represents a new era of air conditioning by bringing together the best in technology and aesthetic design in one refined unit. Its built for consumers who value both performance and form,” he said.
At the heart of the ARTCOOL is LG’s proprietary Inverter Compressor, which delivers up to 70% energy savings and 40% faster cooling, all while operating at ultra-low noise levels. LG is backing the core technology with a 10-year compressor warranty, reflecting a growing customer demand for reliability and low maintenance costs in premium home solutions.
The ARTCOOL’s minimalist design, modern finish, and Wi-Fi-enabled smart controls also position it as a compelling choice for Kenya’s design-conscious, tech-savvy consumer.
“The unit includes the LG ThinQ smart technology, which allows users to control the air conditioner remotely via smartphone. This enables basic functions such as turning the unit on or off, adjusting settings, and monitoring energy usage, even when away from home,” highlighted Tony Yun, East Africa’s Air Solutions Product Director.
The LG ARTCOOL Air Conditioner is now available for purchase on the LG website and at Opalnet retail outlets across Kenya.
