Breath of freshness ...

I must say that air-conditioners now on the forces and deep cleaning of the filling room apartment on air pollution. And on the effectiveness of such cleaning is sometimes comparable to the work of specialized air purifiers. Clean - the guarantee of health quality of indoor air of modern homes has declined steadily. Dangerous pollution and allergens appear directly in the home as a result of human activity and the representatives of the surrounding fauna (tobacco smoke, animal dander, dust mites, selection) and enter the room from the street (pollen, fumes, etc.). Because the acquisition of air conditioner that is capable of performing the functions in combination air cleaner, a very rational step. Indeed, the indoor fan runs all located in the room air through the case on average 5-15 times per hour. To ensure that its clearing, the flow path for air-intake unit panel, enough to put these or other filters. At the heart of the filtration system of any wall of the indoor unit split systems - coarse and fine filters to clean the air. Coarse filter (made usually of a material that resembles a scaffold with a diameter of 0.2 mm) is designed for pre-cleaning the air, as well as to protect the evaporator coil air conditioner from poplar fluff and coarse particles. It is located behind the front panel and covers an entire air channel at the entrance to the split system (ie a full-size). In some models, such as MSZ-GC/GA (Mitsubishi Electric, Japan), coarse filter impregnated with an antioxidant compound, and its life is 9 years old, comparable to the "life expectancy" air conditioner. In models of RAS-JH1, RAS-EH1 (Hitachi, Japan) set the metal air filters Stainless Clean, neutralizing odors and prevent bacterial growth. According to the manufacturer, these devices differ from the models of the "fishing line" high reliability and durability, and for them it is very easy to clean. All coarse filters need regular maintenance: they should be washed under running water, preferably with a detergent. For users who do not wish to burden themselves with this type of work fits conditioner Nocria (Fujitsu General, Japan), in which the mesh air filters are cleaned automatically. At regular intervals conditioner relieves their filters from accumulated dust on them, throwing it in special dust collectors using prescribed for the brushes. Service wall split system is reduced to empty its dust collectors about 1 -2 times a year. If you activate AC Robot in wall split system Flagship (Panasonic, Japan), dust is automatically removed from the air conditioner out of the duct. Contamination from the surface of the filter sucks it moves over the evacuated nozzle. Clean filter cycles, not once, but piece by piece. How long and when to clean - solves the microprocessor of a split system: it depends on the total time it works. Cleaning the entire surface of the filter is completed every 36 hours the air conditioner. For fine purification of air into the indoor unit is often to install a small (about the size of 20x5 cm and larger) rectangular filter elements made of porous material, held in a holder on the coarse filter or on the body of the indoor unit. Material from which they are made, manufactured saturate the various components. Recent provide decontamination pollution incident on the surface of the filter elements of the chase through the air conditioner, or fill the air stream by various useful components (such as filters in the air can be "blown out" substance containing vitamin C). Thus, the filtration system series models GKP, NKP, SKHP (Toshiba, Japan) using six filter elements for polishing. Filter coffee extract "and" Vitamin C "is saturated with air in the room with antioxidants and vitamins. Odors from the air is removed by inserting "Supertseolit. Finally, virus protection facilities provided by sterilizing properties of the elements "Bioenzim", "Extract of Bamboo" and "Ginkgo biloba extract. In air conditioners SRK-ZGX, SRK-ZE and the SRK-ZG (Mitsubishi Heavy, Japan) applies a filter purification of allergens. He is imbued with the composition of the enzyme and urea, delays and inactivate pollen, animal dander, and destroys all types of mold and viruses. To remove accumulating on its surface allergens dry filter is automatically humidified condensate water, then heated and dried (this mode is activated by a button on the remote). And in models KSGA and KSGH (Kentatsu, Japan) for cleaning the air from household odors used photocatalytic filter element - the mineral-polymer composite of thermoplastic resin with a filler in the form of the zeolite or calcium phosphate (apatite), foamed at thermoforming. Adding inclusions of titanium dioxide as a catalyst for the photochemical reaction sposobst-vuettomu that the composite at the same time serves as a filter and activates the photocatalysis. Titanium dioxide is completely consumed, but under the influence of electromagnetic radiation accelerates the chemical reactions that result in trapped on the surface of this filter, the organic molecules of odorous substances are decomposed into simple components - JI. and H2O. In KSGH reductant adsorption capacity of the filter is sunlight, so the photocatalytic filter to 1 times per month used to wash and dry in the sun. In models KSGA source of waves is UV Recirculator, and here for photocatalytic filter sunlight is not required. When buying air conditioners with the filter elements for the fine purification of air must exercise some caution, focusing not only on the alleged possibility of cleaning systems, but rather on the reputation of the manufacturer on the market. Unfortunately, not all companies produce the filters on the basis of major development activities. There are cases where the decision to air-conditioned one way or another "magic bullet" take part as a result of the marketing department of the plant, and production immediately "customize" the expected market demand. Air-purifying capacity of filter elements for air conditioners such firms are often quite modest, and they can not compete with specially created for this purpose devices. In any case, when you buy a split system is important to clarify whether it is possible to acquire new filter elements to replace outdated. When the time comes to replace (a lifetime average of from 2-3 mesdo 3 years), often turns out that the new supply in our country can not buy - here they simply do not deliver ... Iona guard the purity in the air of any modern city apartment there is a constant shortage of negative ions, which leads to a general weakening of our immune system and provokes the development of some diseases. Saturation of space with negative ions releases tension, improves intellectual abilities. It is therefore very useful addition to the coarse and fine filters to clean air available in the air conditioner, ionizers are different designs and filtering systems based on them. Just press the button on the remote or just turn on the machine - and the room will feel fresh, as if in a coniferous forest or a waterfall. Choosing a split-system with ionizer, remember that the amount of generated negative ions in the room should not be greater than the values ??recommended SanPiN 2.2.4.1294-03 (0,6-50 thousand pieces / cm). It is desirable to clarify this before you buy option on the passport of a split system (in most cases it does not exceed standards). Most models are built-in conditioners ionizers capable of generating negative ions, formed as a result of "capture" electrons of the molecule of oxygen. Original ionizer equipped with new air-conditioning series SRK (Mitsubishi Heavy). Their design provides tourmaline plates that generate clock negatively charged ions that come directly into the room. Even when a split-system is turned off, the concentration of ions is maintained at 2,5-3 thousand pieces / cm. And while the air conditioner efficiency of the ionization process increases dramatically. However, no additional energy is required. Negatively charged ions pass dust particles and other contaminants in the air, his "negative" charge, which are deposited on the floor and the other positively charged surface. Thus, the ions purify the indoor air of normal and fine dust, reduce the number of microbes, eliminates allergens (pollen, viruses, fungal spores, etc.), remove tobacco smoke and odors, reduce the concentration of lead in air. Such a refreshing and cleansing effect can be achieved and a split system with indoor unit, equipped with spiked ionizer. Such devices are now many companies: Kentatsu, Sanyo, Toshiba, Daikin (All - Japan), Electra (Israel), Haier (China), Samsung (Korea) and others more comfortable in the use of ionic air cleaning system "Patrol Sensor" used in air conditioners Deluxe (Panasonic). Air conditioner itself detects air pollution with a special sensor that responds to the increasing concentration of methane in the air and CO2. Once the contamination detected, regardless of whether they were employed on or off air conditioning, activated ionizer and dust particles in the air, the room acquire a negative charge, and the bacteria and viruses in-activated. Then this "garbage" is delayed for full-size strainer which by means of electrical conductors reported a positive charge. On the floor and walls of mud hardly settles. The filter, according to the manufacturers, captures particles with a diameter up to 0,1 m and molecules of odorous substances in size to 0,001 microns. Ionic air cleaning technology, with which particularly effective at inactivating airborne allergens, including dead bodies and fecal selection of house dust mites, as well as viruses and mold spores, called Plasmacluster. It is used in the models AY-XP1 2/9GHR and other modern split systems, Sharp (Japan). Its essence is as follows. Plasmacluster Ion generators generate and emit low-temperature plasma. Educated at the same time the positive (H +) and negative (O2-) ions recombine in the air so that the collision of two H + ions and one O '"produced highly active hydroxyl radicals OH." They are not stable. In order to stabilize the radicals captured a hydrogen ion (H *) from the shells of airborne organic contaminants to form water vapor (H2O). Because of this and come inactivation and destruction of airborne microbes and pollutants to form harmless compounds. devices can achieve in the air ion balance, almost completely the identity of natural (in vivo, for example, in the woods, in the air contains both positive and negative ions). Purifying Plasma Model of positively and negatively charged objects attract each other and used in active electrostatic filters. They are very effectively remove from the room air tobacco smoke, dust, etc. At the entrance of the filter cartridge ionize the air flow, resulting in dust and microscopic particles of pollution acquire charge - depending on the design of the filter positive or negative. further purified air stream passes through the plate, dust bags, placed inside the filter, who reported a charge of opposite polarity. For example, a third-generation family of air conditioners Daiseikai (model SKVP-ND, Toshiba) used plasma filter to attract dust dust surface containing silver ions. purification system complies with the standard for home air purifiers JEM 1467 (Japan Association tested electronics manufacturers ). active electrostatic filters are installed in air conditioners MSZ-FA (Mitsubishi Electric, the system of "dual plasma»), Ururu Sarara (Daikin), Hummer Plasma and Prime (GREE, Hong Kong), S LHP (LG, Korea, technology, NEO-Plasma Plus), WNG (Electra), and others about the importance of samogigieny Owners Split-systems of the past generation probably noticed that if you do not perform regular sanitation of the indoor unit, the instrument is switched on in the room may feel an unpleasant odor. The reason - of bacteria or mold in the pan for collecting condensate and all contact with the air stream surfaces, including filters. Today, air conditioners manufacturers pay great attention to improving samogigieny devices, so that the user was easier to clean them. For example, to combat the bacteria in the indoor unit of air conditioners, as Hitachi, Haier, Kentatsu, Sanyo, set 1 -4 ultraviolet lamps, which emit a wave length 240-280 nm. During the split-system light UV lamps destroy various microorganisms, bacteria, viruses, and mold spores are found in flow passing through the air conditioner. This greatly reduces the likelihood of the spread of diseases transmitted by airborne droplets. And after turning off the air conditioner with remote control can activate disinfecting and deodorizing the interior of the unit-level ozone low density, which is produced by the lamp. Thanks to this unit is not breed mold and other microorganisms, which prevents the emergence of indoor odors and bacteria. conditioners Daiseikai (Toshiba) cleans itself by using a plasma filter, produces ozone low density and disinfecting the indoor unit. Many manufacturers, such as company Samsung, GREE, etc. apply a protective coating bactericidal parts of the indoor unit in contact with the air flow. in the indoor unit split systems RAS-JH1 (Hitachi) is used fan, has antibacterial properties thanks to the Ad Hoc a component in the material of which it is made. There's also a function -I self-cleaning function, which enables us to fully ni-dry surface heat exchanger evaporator air conditioner after use. Function 20-minute samoprosushki also have air conditioners GKP, NKP and SKHP (Toshiba).
