[Ventilation is Important]
Many types of home air conditioners do not have a ventilation function, so open a window to ventilate the room. opening windows in two directions will increase the ventilation effect. To reduce changes in room temperature, open a window in an unoccupied room and use two-stage ventilation to bring fresh air into an occupied room via the hallway.

[When you want to check the ventilation status]
CO2 monitors are available for rent for general households to check the ventilation status. Please use it in the living room or bedroom where the family spends time together, or on occasions when people gather for seasonal or other annual events.
