Because without ventilation, the air in the room will become stale.

You work for a company that focuses on clean air, and you don't even know that much?

Everyone calls me Kiyo. I’m an eco-activist. And you are?

Mr. Fuji, why do you think ventilation matters?

I’ve just answered that question for you a moment ago…

Yes, it’s very important. When you ventilate, you can get rid of moisture, smoke, and bad odors in the air.

Yes. For instance, when you cook, you may end up producing a lot of vapor or smoke. Ventilating will remove the excess moisture and decrease the risk of mold which can harm your health and also potentially damage your home.

Do you like fish? I know I do…

Well, when you cook food with a strong odor such as grilled fish in a poorly ventilated kitchen, the odor can stay indoors for up to several days. I’m sure you have noticed.

Yes, to keep the indoor air clean, you should always ventilate well.

Unfortunately not. Most air conditioners for domestic use simply circulate the air instead of ventilating the room.

You’ve got two options. One is called ‘natural ventilation,’ and the other one is ‘mechanical ventilation.’

Simply open your doors and windows. The greater the number of opened doors and windows, the more efficient the ventilation will be.

In fact, it’s best to keep all windows and doors wide open so that you create airflow but even slightly opened windows will help.

Well, in that case, you can use a fan.

Yes. Just make sure to place it near the open window and facing it. This way, the fan can send the stale air out and increase the speed of the ventilation.

It works pretty well.

In fact, FUJIOH  conducted an experiment to measure the effectiveness of this method. The results showed  that the time required for replacing 80% of the air in the room is 25x times faster this way than ventilating without a fan.

Right? Even if your window is closed, a fan can help with the airflow. Ceiling fans are also great.

This is ventilation done by using appliances like exhaust fans or cooker hoods.

Yes, mechanical ventilation is better. You just switch on the exhaust fan or cooker hood. It’s also much more efficient.

If you can, definitely try it.

In another experiment, we found that mechanical ventilation with open windows is 4x times faster (*) than natural ventilation alone.

 

I’m glad you noticed. Most people only use the cooker hood when they are cooking but it actually helps with daily ventilation too. At lower airflow speeds, FUJIOH’s products don’t make much noise either.

And now you understand why.

Letting fresh air come in through the windows is the basic requirement for natural ventilation. If you switch on the exhaust fan or cooker hood, you can ventilate better and faster.

Yes, ventilating is great for replacing the stale air in a room. At the same time, the fresh air that flows in is good for your health and well-being.

As professionals in improving air quality, FUJIOH is striving continuously to create a new environment under the vision of “Changing the air, improving the environment, to enrich tomorrow.”
