The filter system is optimized to remove
quickly pollutants. The unit contains the
HEPA filter made of Nano Silver and
Catechins which can be helpful for
removal of bacteria, minute particles.

2. Advanced Deodorizing Ability
The deodorizing ability is improved by using
AC deodorizing filter and RBD plasma
antibacterial catalysis system which can
eliminate not only harmful gases such as
volatile organic compounds(VOCs),
Ammonia, Aldehyde, but food and cigarette
odors and so on.

3. Rhythm Cleaning System by Turbo Fan
Turbo fan increases the air flow rate
and treats Indoor pollutants very quickly
by rhythm cleaning system.
