This coupled with Panasonic’snanoe™X and nanoe^TMG technologies,helps ensure a healthy indoor AQI by eliminating PM2.5 particulate matter, dust particles, bacteria, and viruses.

·         Quality and Reliabilityareguaranteedthrough technologies such as inverter,ECOTOUGH, ShieldBlu+,ECONAVI (for energy optimisation), AG Clean+, Crystal Cleanto name a few.
