About 70% answered that they became aware of ventilation after Corona. The number of people who do not ventilate their homes in winter is twice as much as in summer.
Ichijo Komuten Co., Ltd. Ichijo Komuten Co., Ltd. (President: Naoki Iwata) conducted an "Awareness Survey on Dryness and Ventilation in the Home" for 1,202 married men and women in their teens and above. We investigated the problems and countermeasures related to dryness and ventilation in the home in winter. "Awareness survey on dryness and ventilation of home in
winter" Summary ■ About 80% of people are concerned about dryness of home in winter. As for the timing when he is worried about dryness, "when he is heating" is the result that he is the first place. ■ About 80% of people are worried about "her sore throat" due to dryness at home. About half or more of the respondents answered "rough skin". ■ The top measure against drying is the "humidifier", which is used by less than 60% of people. ■ More than 70% of the humidifier users answered that he would take care of her at least once a month. On the other hand, 24.1% of the people who haven't maintained and cleaned him for more than 3 months. ■ More than 30% of people supply water multiple times a day. More than 90% of his users feel that maintenance and water supply work is a burden.
■ Approximately 70% of the respondents answered that they became aware of ventilation due to the influence of the new coronavirus. ■ On the other hand, 20% of the respondents answered that they do not ventilate their homes at all in winter. That percentage is twice that of him in the summer. In the summer, more than half of the ventilation time was "10 minutes or more", while in the winter, 40% or more was "less than 5 minutes", and he was halved. ■ More than 70% of people feel that ventilation at home is "troublesome".
About 80% of people answered that they are concerned about drying at home in winter. "When heating" is the top timing to worry about. 2nd place "when waking up" 3rd place "at bedtime" and so on. The number one place to worry about dryness is "bedroom", which is highly related to the timing of concern about dryness. When asked, "Are you worried about the dryness of your home in winter?", More than half of the people felt that they were "very worried", and when combined with those who answered "worried", 8 It was found that more than a percentage of people are concerned about the dryness of their homes in winter (Fig. 1). In addition, when we asked 975 people who answered "I'm very worried" or "I'm worried" about "timing when I'm worried about dryness at home (multiple selections are possible)", the first place was "when heating". More than 70% answered, and more than 60% answered "when waking up" in second place. In addition, more than half of the respondents answered "at bedtime" (Fig. 2). Furthermore, when asked to select multiple "places where dryness is a concern", 77.5% of the respondents answered "bedroom" in first place. Along with the 2nd place "living room", the places related to the "timing to worry about dryness" in Fig. 2 were ranked in (Fig. 3). "Throat pain" is the number one concern and trouble with dryness at home. The most common measure against dryness was "use a humidifier," which was implemented by just under 60% of people. Approximately 80% of the respondents answered that their throat hurts when asked, "What are your concerns and problems with dryness in your home in winter (multiple answers)?" The second place "rough skin" also resulted in more than half. In addition, items related to health management such as "easy to catch a cold (46.5%)" and "infectious diseases such as influenza (38.8%)" ranked high (Fig. 4). Next, when asked about "measures for drying homes in winter (multiple choices)", the most common answer was "use a humidifier", which was implemented by 56.3% of the respondents. The second place was "drying the laundry in the room", and 47.9% of the respondents answered (Fig. 5). Of those who use a humidifier, more than 70% clean and clean more than once a month, while 24.1% do not clean and clean more than 3 months. Some people haven't done it for over a year. When asked "frequency of care and cleaning of the humidifier" to 677 people who answered that they would use a humidifier as a measure against drying, the most common answer was "once a month" at 32.2%. Combined with "once every two weeks" and "once a week", it was found that more than 70% perform maintenance "more than once a month". On the other hand, the total number of people who have not been maintained / cleaned for 3 months or more has risen to 24.1%, and some of them have not been maintained / cleaned for 1 year or more (Fig. 6). 33% of people supply water multiple times a day. More than 90% feel that maintenance and water supply work is a burden. Similarly, when asked about "frequency of exchanging and replenishing water in the humidifier", the first place was "once a day" with 46.2%. On the other hand, when "twice a day" and "more than three times a day" are combined, the result is that about 33.1% of people supply water multiple times a day (Fig. 7). Furthermore, when asked "Do you feel that it is difficult to maintain and clean the humidifier?", More than 60% of the respondents said "I feel it very much", and when I added "I feel it so well", more than 90% of the people felt that it was a burden. It became clear that (Fig. 8).
About 70% of people answered that they became aware of ventilation due to the influence of the new coronavirus. Approximately 70% of the respondents answered "I became conscious" and "I became very conscious" when asked "Did you become conscious of ventilation due to the influence of the new coronavirus?" (Fig. 9). In winter, 20% of people answered that they do not ventilate their homes at all. The ratio is about twice that in summer. More than half of the respondents answered that the ventilation time per ventilation is 10 minutes or more in the summer, while 40% or more in the winter tends to decrease significantly to less than 5 minutes. When asked "How many times a day do you ventilate your home?", 60 to 70% of the respondents answered "1 to 2 times" in both summer and winter, but those who answered "0 times". However, it was found to be about double, at 20.2% in winter, compared to 10.5% in summer (Fig. 10). Next, when asked about "one ventilation time", 55.7% of the respondents took 10 minutes or more once in the summer, while only 23.1% in the winter. In addition, 21.4% of the respondents answered that the ventilation time was less than 5 minutes in the summer, while it was 44.8% in the winter. As a result, it was found that the ventilation time tended to be shorter in winter (Fig. 11). More than 70% of people feel that ventilation at home is "troublesome". The percentage of people who feel that ventilation at home is "troublesome" is more than 70% including "feeling very" and "feeling so good", and I became aware of it due to the influence of the new coronavirus, but the ventilation itself is The result was that many people found it troublesome (Fig. 12). ■ Survey outline Survey method: Online questionnaire Survey period: September 25, 2021 (Sat) -October 3, 2021 (Sun) Survey target: Male and female teenagers and above Valid responses: 1,202 Sample respondents: 388 males, females 814 people (1 teenager, 205 in their 20s, 546 in their 30s, 248 in their 40s, 146 in their 50s, 47 in their 60s, 9 in their 70s and above) * The composition ratio is rounded to the second decimal place. Therefore, it may not be 100 in total. << Reference >> In this survey, it was found that many people are concerned about the dryness of their homes in winter, especially when using heating. Although we use a humidifier as a countermeasure, it turned out that many people find it difficult to maintain and clean. In addition, although I became aware of ventilation due to the influence of the new coronavirus, it was found that the number of times and time were significantly reduced in winter due to the influence of cold outside air. At Ichijo Komuten, we are proposing "Loss Guard 90 Uru Care," which is a humidification and ventilation system for the entire building, which can address these concerns.
Humidification & Ventilation of Ichijo Building Industry's First * What is "Loss Guard 90 Uru Care "? is. The water automatically supplied to the humidification unit is sucked up by the centrifugal force of the rotating "disc", and the water pops out horizontally and hits the inner wall, generating nano-sized mist. Mist spreads throughout the house along with the air flow due to ventilation, and automatically humidifies the entire building. * The industry's first (as of September 2019) "Urucare" homepage: https://ichijo.jp/urucare/ ◆ "Urucare" is a centrifugal crushing technology that is incorporated into a heat exchange ventilation system to humidify the entire house. Advantages ・ Maintenance-free Maintenance such as cleaning the filter every season is of course, and there is no need for troublesome daily water filling. Cleaning and water supply are fully automatic, so it's clean and safe without any hassle. It provides a comfortable indoor environment without doing anything. ① Drainage: All the water in the humidification unit is automatically drained once a day. Do not leave water in the pool for a long time. (2) Drying: The inside is dried by the clean wind of the ventilation system in the entire building. It suppresses the growth of germs. ③ Water supply: Water is automatically supplied when it dries. Since it is directly connected to the water supply, there is no need to add water. * Well water cannot be used to supply water to Los Guard 90 Urucare.・ Since it is a household-friendly super energy saving, even if you humidify the whole house for 24 hours, the electricity bill for humidification is about 10 yen a day *. The power consumption is 16W for 1 hour, and even if it is humidified for 24 hours, the power consumption is the same as when a 43-inch TV is on for 3 hours, and the reasonableness is also epoch-making. * Depends on the conditions.・ The sound is quiet. The driving sound is about 36 dB. It's as quiet as a library, so you don't have to worry about it in your bedroom. -Not only humidification but also ventilation is a "heat exchange ventilation system" that takes in outside air close to the room temperature, and it is possible to ventilate with almost no change in room temperature, so heating costs can be suppressed. (* In winter) Furthermore, when ventilating, the high-performance filter catches harmful substances such as pollen that come in with the air, and the room can be kept lean. ◆ Heat Exchange Ventilation System "Loss Guard 90" The one-article ventilation system is "heat exchange type" and equipped with "Loss Guard 90" equipped with a "high performance filter" as standard equipment. With a temperature exchange efficiency of up to 90%, it has the world's top level energy-saving performance. In a general "natural air supply type" ventilation system, the heat in the room is discarded together with the air, and on the contrary, unpleasant outside air is taken in, which is often a weak point of heat insulation, but "heat exchange" With the "mold", the fresh outside air is supplied close to the room temperature, so the air in the house can be replaced without damaging the room temperature, which is kept comfortable by air conditioning. ◆ Points of energy saving and comfort "Temperature exchange efficiency" The point of comfort is "Temperature exchange efficiency", which indicates the recovery rate of how much the comfortable temperature that is originally discarded by exhaust can be returned to the room. Ichijo's "Loss Guard 90" has the world's highest level of performance with a maximum temperature exchange efficiency of 90%, achieving excellent energy savings. ◆ Advantages of "Loss Guard 90" ・ Energy saving reduces the heating cost in winter to about one-third. With a general ventilation system (without temperature exchange) where cold outside air enters as it is, the heating cost for one winter is about 59,000 yen. .. On the other hand, with the "Loss Guard 90" that exchanges temperature, the heating cost for one winter can be reduced to about 19,000 yen. * Total floor area: 45.31 tsubo / Building site: Nagoya / Insulation performance (Q value): 0.51W / m2 ・ K / Heating period: October 28-April 24 / Heating setting: Whole building floor heating (24-hour setting)・ Temperature 22 ℃) / Electricity charge: Estimated by the heat load calculation software SMASH for Chubu Electric Power / Smart Life Plan (January 2021 unit price / contract fee not included). -Keeps comfortable humidity Since it also has a "humidity exchange" function similar to temperature exchange, the exhaust air collects the humidity that is about to enter by supplying air in summer and discharges it outdoors. It keeps the comfortable humidity in the room. -99% pollen cut Powerful ventilation "Ross Guard 90" enables a pollen removal rate of 99% * by attaching a dedicated high-performance filter. * When using a PM2.5 compatible filter * The following is special information limited to media personnel.
