LG's Centum System refrigerator sets new warranty and energy efficiency record at Berlin IFA 2018 show

LG Electronics (LG) has broken new ground with the first refrigerator to come with a 20-year warranty for its internal compressor. The refrigerator is also the first in the industry with Centum System technology inside, making it a natural choice for consumers looking for an advanced efficient refrigerator that will stand the test of time.

The innovative bottom-freezer refrigerator unveiled at IFA 2018 in Berlin stands out from the competition with market-leading energy efficiency as well as durability and an array of convenience-enhancing features. 

These benefits are achieved by integrating several advanced technologies to form dynamic customer-oriented solutions. The refrigerator’s powerhouse is the LG Inverter Linear Compressor which is 32 percent more energy efficient than conventional compressors.

“LG has long worked to develop a bottom-freezer refrigerator that set new standards in not just energy savings and durability but also design and the new Centum System bottom-freezer refrigeratorrepresents the culmination of these efforts,” said Moses Marji, LG Electronics General Manager Marketing.

“Our premium Centum System bottom-freezer will help cement LG’s long-standing leadership in the global premium refrigerator market.”

This and a range of other efficient features combine to cut the bottom-freezer refrigerator power consumption and give an energy rating of A⁺⁺⁺-40 percent, far superior to the competition. This means that the refrigerator uses 40 percent less power than models with an A⁺⁺⁺  energy rating and will make it easier than ever to save on electric bills.

The advanced Inverter Linear Compressor also significantly boosts reliability and durability.^†Rigorous product testing found that LG’s Inverter Linear Compressor-equipped CentumSystemrefrigeratorwas subject to notablyless wearand tear from daily use while also producing up to 25 percent less noise.

This same research also placed that the average lifespan of the refrigerator’s core technology at roughly 20 years, far exceeding the competition.
