Mitsubishi - OEM air purification + A/C upgrade?
I was talking to a Japanese contact which I have come to call a friend about what may or may not be going on at Mitsu HQ. (DISCLAIMER:) I will fire this off straight from the start. This is pure speculation, nothing has been confirmed nore is there any strong evidence to support such talk.
Now I can get on with it. When I heard this speculation, there were multiple reasons why I took interest.
1) There was talk that either Mitsu is or some time ago was speculating at integrating Sharp’s Plasmacluster technology into their product line up. That said, it just so happens that I have been using Plasmacluster technology in my home. What is Plasmacluster ION technology? Simply put, Its one of the most effective methods of air / environment purification to date made by Sharp, (the people who make TV’s and other popular electronics.) Ya ya but what does it do you ask? I think sharp puts it best.
“…Originally developed as an air quality technology, Plasmacluster Ion attacks impurities and diseases in the air….Plasmacluster Ion generates positive and negative ions in the air. These ‘cling’ to airborne impurities and diseases, attacking the cell membranes of their bacteria. In turn, this neutralises them.” - http://www.avianfludefence.com
Now if it sounds a little far fetched or played up, think again. Dont think the Japanese arent clued in. Like with their Cellphones and Cars, they are light years into the future in many aspects. Dont be fooled, they had this Virus H1N1 and H5N1 influenza stuff figured out decades ago. They have been tightening their healthcare game like 10 years ago and now this technology is everywhere. I remember asking some of my japanese friends about Plasmacluster technology products for like 2 years. matter afact, its so integrated now that its in just about everything. Integrated into lights, TV,s Refrigerators, Ovens, Microwaves, A/C systems. I am talking about Everywhere. Hell the Japanese government has put these systems into their own government offices and even military bases / research labs. Its advance stuff, and about 99% effective at eliminating viral and bacterical threats.
Anyways getting back to the speculation, and I swear I hope its true. The technology works extremely well. And it would go along way to enhancing the ownership experience for Mitsu Fans. Toyota already has this technology integrated into Its Hybrid Camry (North America).
Thats good news for all you chain smokers out there that love smoking with the windows up. The smell generally dissapears in a very short time. I dont smoke, but I like knowing I am in a clean zone. Hell, I spent 1500 dollars putting these devices all over my house 2 years ago and my life long seasonal allergies stopped ever since….
2) That said there is another reason why I hope its true. I am not happy with the performance of our Air system. There are a few things that drive me a little crazy when trying to drive my car. Like the whole issue with windshield condensation. You driving along, say on a cold night, and you see the windows fogging up, the only way to get rid of it is to activate the A/C system which in turn activates the dehumidifer. Now, I have owned a few cars in my time, I admit this is my first Mitsubishi. But all of them dont seem to have this issue. You turn on the windshield vent with outside air coming in and presto… fog is gone. Using ones A/C system in the Winter time strinks me as a little wierd dont you?
Anyways I thought I would throw that out there for your own consumption… if you want to read up on exactly how plasmacluster technology works, you can go to the sharp websites or you can take a look at this simplified training manual left open on a sharp corp website for employees I think http://www.sharp.com.eg/pdf/PCI.pdf
