It is known that the bacteria that cause unpleasant odors coming out of the AC outlet are Bacillus, Serratia, and Arthrobacter. It has been confirmed that STREAMER technology decomposes and suppresses these odor-causing bacteria.
*This is a demonstration result using a STREAMER discharge device for testing. The effect of the product equipped with STREAMER technology or the effect in the actual use environment may differ.
Demonstration of suppression of Bacillus (causes odor)
From the test results, it was confirmed that Bacillus (bacteria that cause bad odor in air conditioners) decomposed and suppressed by 99.7% within 2 hours after STREAMER irradiation.

Testing Organization
Japan Food Research Laboratories
Testing Method
The sample obtained by dripping 0.5 ml of bacterial solution on a petri dish was used as a sample, and the sample was allowed to stand in the STREAMER generator. Observe the suppressive effect of the results of measuring the number of bacteria after 1, 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours. (Use the initial bacterial solution adjusted to the bacterial count of 1.0 x 106 cells/ml.) The STREAMER release device and three test bacteria are provided by Daikin.
Demonstration of suppression of Serratia (the cause of the smell)
From the test results, it was confirmed that Serratia (the bacteria that causes bad odor in air conditioners) decomposed and suppressed by 99.9% within 1 hour after STREAMER irradiation.

Japan Food Research Laboratories
Testing Method
A sample obtained by dropping 0.5 ml of the bacterial solution on a petri dish is used as a sample, and the sample is left to stand in the STREAMER generator. Observe the suppression effect from the results of measuring the number of bacteria after 1, 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours. (Use the initial bacterial solution adjusted to a bacterial count of 1.0 x 106 cells/ml.) The STREAMER discharge device and the three test bacteria are provided by Daikin.
The cause of the bad smell from inside the air conditioner
Due to the structure of the air conditioner that operates while taking in air indoors, it is highly likely that dirt and dust will collect inside the air conditioner, and mold will most likely form due to condensation. Dust is a source of nutrition for mold, and odor-causing bacteria in the air conditioner multiply by using the fungus as food, so bad odors often come from the air conditioner.
To prevent the development of odor-causing bacteria in the air conditioner, we can not only clean the filter and outlet cover periodically, but also dry the inside of the air conditioner by operating the fan mode for about 1 hour after cooling. Let us remember the steps we can take in our daily life."
