LG makes mid to high cost air purifiers with multi-stage filtration and HEPA filters. LG rates their units for larger rooms which assumes a strong fan to draw in plenty of air. We have not been able to find any reviews of these units and can't comment on their effectiveness. Some of the models are only distributed in certain parts of the world (i.e. the Middle East).

Founded in 1958 as GoldStar to produce Korea's first line of electronic appliances, this company quickly grew to become an electronics and appliance industry leader in that country. LG Electronics Gulf FZE was established in 1996 and by 1999 it had become a worldwide leader in digital technology with emphasis on the Middle East with offices and affiliates in Dubai. LG Electronics has developed innovative, industry-setting standards for digital technology and appliances.
LG Electronics air cleaning technology uses washable filters as part of a 16-stage multi-layer filtering system that includes an anti-virus pre filter, a photocatalyst plasm filter, an allergen filter, a washable HEPA filter, an activated charcoal filter and a platinum deodorization filter. These 6 filters not only remove 99.97 percent of the particulates from an airstream down to 0.3 microns, but they tackle the tough pollutants like animal dander, allergy causing germs, Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) and even nitrogen dioxide (NO2) emissions that irritate respiratory conditions.
Replacement filters are only required for the allergy filter which costs $30.00. LG Air purifier prices or warranty information are not listed on the manufacturer's website, consumers are referred to their nearest location to get further information. LG Electronics produces five types of air purifiers, but not all are listed with online retailers so prices are not available for all models.
