The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) has chosen LG Electronics USA as Platinum Partner for The New American Remodel® (TNAR), the official show home of this year’s IBS. This “Net Zero” home illustrates how any home can be transformed into a high-performance, high-tech space when integrating innovations to reduce energy consumption, increase efficiency and enhance daily life. In addition to LG HVAC technologies, TNAR also features LG solar energy solutions, home appliances and consumer electronics.
The home features two award-winning LG Multi V™ S 5-ton Heat Recovery outdoor units, connected to 10 indoor units of four different types. LG’s aesthetically pleasing Art Cool™ Gallery and Mirror, High Static Ducted and Vertical Air Handler units all fit seamlessly into the high-end design of the home. Integrated with the home’s smart ecosystem, these customizable and flexible home comfort solutions are easily controlled via wall-mounted controllers or with a smartphone using the LG ThinQ app.

Each year, TNAR program selects an existing home for a comprehensive remodel to demonstrate the very latest in building techniques, concepts, materials, and designs. TNAR 2020 is a state-of-the-art, modern-day marvel that exhibits a sustainable vision by showcasing innovation, exceptional design, and energy efficiency featuring products and systems that incorporate current trends in the housing industry.
Element Building Company and Architecture by Phil Kean transformed this property into a two-story masterpiece totaling 7,523 square feet (4,802 square feet of living space) within a charming, well-established equestrian community in the Las Vegas area. TNAR 2020 features a sleek and unique chef’s kitchen, five bedrooms, four bathrooms, three-car garage showroom, indoor-outdoor living features in the courtyard, spa, pool, fire features, an elegant wine room, five fireplaces and a rooftop terrace with views of the Las Vegas Strip.
Complementing LG Air Conditioning Technologies’ leading role in TNAR is the rooftop installation of high-efficiency solar modules from residential solar energy leader LG Electronics. LG NeON® R 60-cell panels, which also support TNAR’s Net Zero design, are designed to maximize sunlight absorption, and they can generate the highest possible power output – as much as 26 percent more than other comparably-sized solar panels. TNAR also features ENERGY STAR certified LG home appliances, led by “LG Ultimate Laundry Room,” as well as immersive home entertainment thanks to LG OLED TVs and LG NanoCell TVs ranging from 55- to 77-inch class screen sizes.
Tours of the home are offered to all registered attendees of the 2020 International Builders’ Show and the 2020 Kitchen & Bath Industry Show, through Jan. 23. Complimentary shuttle buses from the Las Vegas Convention Center to the show homes are available.
