LG InstaView Door-in-Door Side-by-Side Refrigerator with UVnano

A flood of ultraviolet disinfecting products have hit the market since the COVID-19 pandemic hit and Lg is now using the technology to keep the water from the refrigerator’s built-in dispenser free of germs. The company’s InstaView Door-in-Door Side-by-Side Refrigerator with UVnano uses ultraviolet LED light to “virtually eliminate” bacteria on the nozzle.
LG says its UVnano technology operates once every hour to remove “up to 99.9 percent of bacteria” such as E. coli, staph, and pseudomonas aeruginosa (which can cause pneumonia) on the refrigerator’s dispenser tap. It is unclear whether the technology is effective against COVID-19, but it still offers greater peace of mind that the water from the refrigerator is safe to drink. LG said it plans to announce pricing and availability details in the coming months.
