It will go on sale from October 25th (*).
As awareness of cleanliness and hygiene increases, hygiene habits such as gargling and hand washing are becoming established (*2).
In addition, regarding air quality, there is a high need for sterilization and deodorization to keep the living space where families spend time comfortable, and the need for sterilization is particularly high among families with small children (* 2).
This product can sterilize (*3), deodorize (*4) and collect dust from bacteria and odors in the room, and with its A4 size footprint, it can be used in any location such as the living room, bedroom, or children’s room. It can be installed without any installation. In order to generate hypochlorous acid equivalent to conventional products (*5) even with a small body, we have developed a “new current control system” that increases the concentration of gaseous
hypochlorous acid inside the tray and released within a safe range. By doing so, we have made it possible to have an applicable floor area of 18 tatami mats.
In addition, the drainage work required once a week with conventional products has been reduced to once a month with this product, and the drainage tray is now a flat tray with less unevenness, making it easier to clean and maintain. .
Panasonic’s compact size makes it easy to install, and it can sterilize (*3) and deodorize (*4) bacteria and odors floating in the air, as well as collect house dust, pollen, etc. This product supports a variety of lifestyles, including families living with small children and pets, and families providing care at home, and contributes to creating an air environment that can be enjoyed comfortably all year round.
