Dual-Inverter Portable AC:
The LG LP1419IVSM is considered a high-end portable air conditioner.
Designed with dual inverter technology it has a dual rotary compressor and twin rotors. This allows it to run more efficiently than comparable models.
Simple explanation ~ It’s like having 2 units operating in 1 machine
Benefits of a dual inverter:
- Energy efficient — 40% less energy
- Quieter operation
- Fast cooling in large rooms
The stand-out benefit is quieter operation.
It’s 10-30% quieter than similar 10,000 BTU air conditioners
Buyers reviews say they’re surprised by quietly it runs — for those who are light-sleepers, this might be the one to get.

LG LP1419IVSM Air Conditioner Review:
Another nice benefits is the WiFi “Smart” functionality w/ mobile app and voice control.
The LG portable air conditioner syncs w/ your home WiFi — once connected, the LG SmartThinQ mobile app becomes your remote control.
Buyers say that it’s super helpful if they forget to turn it off or want to pre-cool rooms ahead of time.
SmartThinQ – Mobile App:
- Start or stop cooling (remotely!)
- Climate control feature = choose the exact room temp
- Switch operation modes
- Activate dehumidifier (6.8 pints/hr)
- Choose 1 of 4 fan speeds
- Set turn on/off timer
Standout feature — ability to set your desired room temperature.
Most portable ACs let you increase or decrease power, but don’t let you choose the actual temperature — it’s a luxury feature that buyers love!
You can also sync w/ Amazon Alexa or Google Home for voice control.

LG LP1419IVSM Reviews:
If you live in a humid area the built-in dehumidifier will be useful.
At max power, the dehumidifier is can remove 6.8 pints per hour — more than 20 gallons per day!
Dehumidifier: 163.2 pints daily
Looking online, a brand new 70-pint dehumidifier costs $200-300.
At twice the capacity, the LG portable air conditioner is a powerhouse — it also includes water full indicator (when to empty the bucket) and continuous drainage.
Continuous drainage: lets you connect a hose to a drain or sink. This way you don’t need to empty the water bin + it can operate continuously throughout the day.
Because of its quieter operation + powerful dehumidifier, the LG is very versatile.
Plus being a portable AC unit, you can easily move it to another area of your home (if needed).
LG LP1419IVSM Review:
Overall, the LG dual-inverter is a top option for cooling large rooms (up to 500 sq. ft.).
The stand-out features include:
- Mobile app functionality
- Very energy efficient portable ac
- Quieter performance
- Fast cooling
- Powerful dehumidifier
There’s not many reviews yet, but that’s because it’s very to on the market.
Downside is the expensive price tag.
It’s an expensive portable air conditioner — many would consider it a luxury unit.
However, LG is known for producing durable air conditioners. By purchasing this specific unit, you can expect it to run smoothly for 4+ years.
You’ll also save money on the reduced energy costs.
Depending on your situation, I think the LG dual inverter portable air conditioner is an option worth considering.
