LG has announced a new air conditioning unit which appears to have been designed for the African market in mind, such as Nigeria where malaria is prevalent. How does air conditioning help combat malaria, you ask. Well it seems that in this particular unit, also known as the "Anti-Mosquito" air conditioner, it utilizes ultrasonic wave technology which helps to repel mosquitos which in turn helps to prevent malaria. According to the tests conducted by LG, the air conditioning unit has a success rate of 64% when it comes to deterring malaria-transmitting Anopheles mosquitos in 24 hours, while overall it manages 82%.
