New Product Leverages Company’s Innovative Technologies and Design Prowess to
Offer an Effortlessly Elevated Kitchen Experience
SEOUL, Feb. 18, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) is set to showcase its “Fit & Max” kitchen solution at the 2025 Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS) in Las Vegas, offering a design that seamlessly fits into spaces while maximizing both capacity and performance. Boasting Zero Clearance technology, the company’s cutting-edge kitchen appliances are an ideal fit for any kitchen.
The expanded lineup includes three-door and four-door refrigerators with Zero Clearance – a technology that minimizes wasted space, provides impressive installation flexibility and helps homeowners achieve a stylish built-in kitchen aesthetic. Thanks to cleverly-designed hinges, the main compartment doors can open fully with only 4 millimeters of clearance between the side of the appliance and the surrounding cabinetry or adjacent wall.
The new models also leverage the company’s proprietary Thin Door technology, which adds to the visual appeal of the new refrigerators and further contributes to optimal space efficiency in the kitchen. 100 millimeters-thick on previous models, the doors have been slimmed down to just 55 millimeters, delivering a sleek and sophisticated appearance without sacrificing insulation performance.
Moreover, LG’s new lineup provides a generous capacity, ensuring ample space for storing food items, beverages and ingredients. The newly designed middle- and freezer-drawers offer enhanced accessibility and easier, more convenient organization. The new, premium LG refrigerators also on show at KBIS 2025, feature Dual Ice Solution and Mini Craft Ice, allowing users to elevate their favorite drinks, chill refreshments for a party, or quickly cool a hot soup or broth with freshly-made ice.
In addition to refrigerators, LG expands its product lineup with a wider range of “Fit” offerings, combining space-efficient design with enhanced performance in various appliances. Another standout from the LG kitchen solution lineup is the new Flush Depth dishwasher, which fits perfectly with standard-depth cabinetry for a seamless and streamlined look. The new dishwasher incorporates advanced cleaning and drying technologies, including QuadWash Pro and Dynamic Heat Dry, to deliver industry-leading performance and enable the 1 Hour Wash & Dry cycle. LG’s QuadWash Pro technology creates microbubbles that thoroughly remove stains from dishware, while Dynamic Heat Dry utilizes a dry boost function to enhance drying performance. Drying effectiveness is further increased by the company’s AutoVentDry function, which automatically opens the dishwasher door after the completion of a cycle.
“An ideal fit for today’s kitchen and lifestyle, LG’s expanded Zero Clearance lineup presents next-level user experiences through advanced innovation and thoughtful design,” said Lyu Jae-cheol, president of the LG Home Appliance Solution Company. “We will continue to introduce appliances that offer customers the best of performance, style and convenience for a truly differentiated kitchen experience.”

Applying LG’s state-of-the-art magnetic bearing technology, LeviTech, the new Centrifugal Chiller presents improved overall energy efficiency while also enhancing part-load efficiency through the inverter system. Furthermore, the Centrifugal Chiller provides a reliable supply of chilled water with support from LG’s bearing protection and fast recovery features. Demonstrating LG’s commitment to staying ahead of changes to international refrigerant regulations, the new model is available in variants employing low-GWP refrigerants such as R513A, R1233zd and R1234ze.
Located next to the HVAC booth, the Component Solutions booth highlights LG’s new lineup of compressors and motors. The company’s Scroll Compressor lineup has been expanded to target both the commercial and residential HVAC markets. By implementing innovative scroll compressor design and developing high-efficiency motors and advanced core technologies, LG continues its efforts to ensure the quality and safety of its solutions.
Moreover, the company is unveiling its comprehensive lineup of compressors for Cold Climate Heat Pumps (CCHP) at this year’s AHR Expo. LG has been working tirelessly with various HVAC manufacturers to produce advanced CCHP compressors and has participated in the U.S. Department of Energy’s Cold Climate Heat Pump Technology Challenge, where it showcased the exceptional capabilities and quality of its specialized heat pumps and compressor technology.
LG’s Component Solutions business will continue to invest in strengthening strategic relationships with major HVAC manufacturers. Through the continuous introduction of innovative technologies that anticipate market shifts, LG aims to reinforce its position as the industry leader in HVAC components.
“The LG HVAC solutions displayed at AHR Expo 2025 underscore our firm commitment to innovation, and to leading the industry’s transition toward decarbonization and electrification,” said James Lee, president of the LG ES Company. “As a leading global brand, we remain dedicated to delivering efficient and sustainable HVAC technologies and solutions tailored to diverse customer needs and environments.”

I’ve just got home after being away 2 years, and got the tv out of storage. When we try and watch the news live in the. Morning every few minutes the video and sound stop and then after a few seconds the circle appears and starts spinning. Then the program starts again and it’s fine for a little while, and then it stops again.
I have checked for updates of the TV OS and iView (2021 is the latest)
If I use iView on my iOS device and then airplay it to the tv it works fine with no problems. If I watch any program on iview that would have been prerecorded, even if I’m watching it “live” it’s fine.
I see a few people were having a problem with all iView programs back in 2022, but they resolved.
can anybody suggest any solutions?
Thanks
