The Shanghai Administration of Industry and Commerce has published the result of its quality inspection of air conditioners. It shows that one air conditioner made by LG is unqualified because they do not reach the specified level for energy saving.
SHAIC had conducted the inspection of 22 kinds of air conditioners, of which only LG's fission hanging air conditioner was found unqualified. This air-conditioner is sold by LG (China) Shanghai branch and its EER (Energy Efficiency Ratio) is 2.48, which is much lower than the stated standard of 2.6 in China.
SHAIC will require outlets to stopping selling this type of air conditioner until the manufacturer can improve the quality. Air conditioners that have already been sold will not be recalled.
