Revel in the Rain with the LG Dual Inverter Heat Pump Dryer

Tweet

Whenever monsoon season arrives in the country, it brings along with it horrible traffic, deep floods, and of course, piles of clothes waiting for the sun to shine. Doing laundry with unpredictable weather is one of the most difficult things to do because if the weather doesn’t cooperate, you’re going to end up with damp clothes that everyone can smell from a mile away. The best solution for this problem is to invest in a dryer, which guarantees a significant lifestyle improvement.

LG’s Dual Inverter Heat Pump Dryer (RC09VHP2V) is one of the best dryer options in the market today since it gives you the flexibility to focus on energy efficiency or time. While drying a load, its advanced DUAL Inverter Heat Pump™ with Eco Hybrid technology provides you the choice of saving energy, or saving time, tailoring it specifically to your needs and lifestyle. Not to picky about the eco options? You can let it do its own thing, since it also has Sensor Dry technology which optimizes drying performance by detecting moisture on the clothes and automatically sets the drying time.

Shrinkage is a non-issue with the RC09VHP2V, as LG’s Dual Heat Pump Dryer technology uses a lower temperature than regular dryers, which smoothens creases and significantly reduces shrinkage. It’s also perfect for families with young children or those with allergies, as the Allergy Care Cycle reduces 99.9% allergens, such as house mites that can cause allergy or respiratory issues, improving your quality of life by keeping an allergen-free environment. The dryer is certified by the British Allergy Foundation (BAF).

Committed to the vision of a true smart home, LG also outfitted the RC09VHP2V with SmartThinQ technology, which makes it easy to interact with it together with your other LG home appliances. Using the app, you can operate and monitor your laundry from anywhere, track energy consumption, and download cycle presets. It also comes with a Smart Diagnosis function to quickly troubleshoot any minor issue before it becomes a problem. 

The LG Dual Inverter Heat Pump Dryer also scores style points. It has a sleek brushed steel finish, with a big chrome rim door and a hidden handle providing an uninterrupted silhouette. The door is also reversible, giving you the flexibility to maximize space and ergonomics. 

You never have to worry about aftersales as the LG Dual Inverter Heat Pump Dryer has a 10 Year Warranty – both the DUAL Inverter Compressor and the Inverter Motor has a 10 year warranty, giving you the guarantee that the dryer will always be hassle-free.

LG Launches Laundry Love: On National Women’s Month, LG empowers alpha-males to do the family laundry with LG washers

Tweet

Even with more women joining the workforce, studies have shown that a bulk of the housework is still relegated to the women. 

This is known as “the second shift”, where the family structures are still holding on to traditional roles in gender equality with regard to the chores that the women are still expected to do. One of them is the laundry. This takes up so much time and energy that women often feel that they no longer have time to take care of themselves. Aside from the stereotypes that many Filipinos grew up with, where it was the norm to leave all the homecare duties to the women, another reason that men give as to why they don’t help out is that they don’t know how to do the household tasks properly.

The innovative technologies designed for LG Home Appliances make chores, such as doing the laundry, easier to accomplish - and surprisingly pleasant – especially for men who are trying to do it right for the first time. 

LG’s line of smart appliances with features that offer powerful solutions for tasks often perceived as complicated, such as efficiently doing the laundry for clothes that are clean and even allergy-free. 

This Women’s Month, LG reinforces its commitment to women empowerment by ensuring that its smart home technologies are attuned to the constantly changing and dynamic needs of both women and men who use them. LG’s Laundry Love is an advocacy that wants to give them the opportunity to show that they can and should get the job done, with washing machines that are powerful and packed with innovative features.

To demonstrate that alpha-males, and even working dads can do it, motoring expert James Deakin, actor/model Eric ‘Eruption’ Tai, and PBA’s ‘Ironman’ LA Tenorio went onstage at the LG Laundry Love campaign launch to wash their family’s clothes.

James, who is used to running at high speeds, used the LG Front Load washer with Turbo Wash technology, with a unique jet spray for excellent washing performance in less than an hour. 

Eric, who just had a baby with wife Rona, used the LG Top Load washer with its Baby Steam Care function that offers deep clean for baby clothes, along with Allergy Care that removes 99% of allergens to care for his newborn's sensitive skin. 

For LA, who values his time off from his games, the LG Twin wash was a perfect match because it let him wash his just-used basketball jersey at the same time his children’s clothes. With all these convenient cleaning features and more that are available on the LG smart technology washing machines, it is easier to get the men of the family involved in doing the laundry.

During the Love Laundry campaign launch, LG managing director Inkwon Heo shared, “At LG, we believe in using technology to simplify life and to save time. Our washing machines are top-of-the-line products that are designed to make doing the laundry less complicated and more energy efficient. It is with our hope that the men of the household will see doing the family laundry less as a chore, but more as a way of showing support for their loved ones.” LG’s Laundry Love campaign also wants men to be able to feel that they can contribute to running the household. Through this, the traditional gender roles in the household will become a thing of the past, and with the children, the next generation growing up to see that their fathers are able to take on more responsibilities at home, it will be the norm, rather than the exception. 

LG also opened its doors on the same day to the residents of Barangay Maybunga in Pasig to do their laundry at the LG office using the powerful washers. It is the company’s way of giving back to communities, with the aim of making clean laundry accessible, LG will be rolling out the mobile laundry van soon in the different barangays of Metro Manila.

LG supports genderless chores

Tweet

Traditionally, people have associated chores as ‘women’s tasks.’

With significant progress in the fight for equality, gender roles at home, and in other facets of society, have evolved to a point where performing household chores are no longer automatically expected of or assigned mostly to women.

There is, however, still plenty of room for further development. In 2017, one study found that “women tend to do more housework than their male partners, irrespective of their age, income or own workloads.” The results reinforced the fact that “broader social norms” affect the way gender roles, and their duration, are assigned. 

As women continue to negotiate and redefine their responsibilities at home, technology plays a critical role in empowering women to reclaim their autonomy.

Smart home technologies—a niche dominated by LG—make chores easier to accomplish, even pleasant, thus freeing up more time and energy for other pursuits. 

It also helps level the playing field. With user-friendly and intuitive appliances like the TwinWash and the InstaView Door-in-Door, no task or chore is too complex or too hard. Anyone in the family can efficiently do the laundry or do a quick audit of grocery items that need to be replenished. Smart appliances help ease the burden of women who are often expected to take charge of these tasks just because it has been the norm. After all, chores know no gender.

As the world celebrates International Women’s Day, women, and allies, all over the world recognize the milestones that have empowered women to break free from stereotypes and societal expectations. LG, a renowned brand with a global platform, reinforces its commitment to women empowerment by ensuring that its smart home technologies are attuned to the constantly changing and dynamic needs of both women and men who use them.
