Tips Regarding Ventilation 2.1 What should be done to ventilate the house? 2.1.1 Opening a window and creating an air path 2.1.2 Using ventilation fans properly 2.1.3 Using ventilation fans in the kitchen 2.2 Other ventilation methods 1. Basic Knowledge of Ventilation 1.1 What is ventilation? Ventilation is the exchange of air in the room with fresh air outside the room, which aims to reduce and replace polluted air (substances that are harmful to humans) inside the building. 1.2 What are pollutants? Pollutants are substances that are harmful to humans, including carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), formaldehyde (HCHO), house dust, pollen, bacteria and viruses found in the room. This ventilation is expected to reduce and eliminate indoor pollutants. Why Do We Need Ventilation? • Because ventilation can reduce and remove pollutants in the air in the room. In a closed room, air cannot escape easily. This keeps the polluted air in the room and will continue to grow. This situation can affect human health in the room. Ventilation is very important to remove the polluted air. • Because dirty air will accumulate in a room that does not have a ventilation system. Many housing such as residential houses or apartments have a high level of airtightness, so dirty air does not easily escape. When no changes are made to these conditions, there will be poor ventilation and dirty air will accumulate in the room. 1.4 Can We Use Air Conditioning as Ventilation? Many people assume that air conditioners bring in air from outside and that air is used to ventilate the room. In fact, air conditioners, which are generally used in housing, provide comfort only by blowing air from inside the room. After cooling, the air conditioner then returns the air into the room. Indoor air is not exchanged for fresh air from outside. Generally, air conditioners cannot ventilate. But ventilation must be done in another way.

More than 99.9% effectiveness of inactivation against Omicron variants after 2 hours compared to no Streamer. Daikin Industries, Ltd., in collaboration with Professor Tatsuo Shioda and Assistant Professor Tadahiro Sasaki of the Department of Virus Infections, Research Institute for Microbial Diseases at Osaka University have shown that Daikin's unique Streamer technology has more than 99.9% inactivation effect against Omicron variants that is one of the variants of Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) with Streamer compared to no release of Streamer. In an effort to verify the effectiveness of Streamer technology since 2004, Daikin has previously demonstrated its effectiveness on more than 60 types of hazardous substances. This includes bacteria, allergens and viruses including influenza virus (type A, H5N1), RSV, and mouse norovirus through collaboration with public institutions. On the other hand, Daikin has also confirmed the effectiveness of this Streamer technology which shows a 99.9% inactivation effect against the Delta variant. Most recently, this study conducted with Professor Tatsuo Shioda and Assistant Professor Tadahiro Sasaki of Osaka University demonstrated an inactivation effect against the Omicron variant after 2 hours of Streamer release. This demonstration shows the experimental results using a device that produces Streamer discharge under test conditions and does not show the effectiveness of the actual Streamer product used in actual conditions (living space). Experiment Results Irradiation with Streamer discharge for two hours inactivated 99.93%, and for four hours inactivated 99.97% of the Omicron Coronavirus variant (SAR-CoV-2), when compared with no Streamer discharge.

Being in a tropical climate makes the existence of an air conditioning unit (AC) as a room conditioner as if it cannot be separated from housing in Indonesia. In his choice, the type of split wall AC which is easily recognizable from the indoor unit attached to the wall by connecting to an outdoor unit is still the main choice. This choice is not only dominated by residential areas with limited electrical power or first-time AC users. Even residences with large dimensions and even more modern still choose this type of air conditioner. This condition cannot be separated from the need for air conditioning in Indonesia which is still limited to its main function which is to cool the room. Even though as the name implies, air conditioning is actually part of a device that was created to form an ideal air conditioning ecosystem for residential users. Like an ecosystem that connects several parts in a circle, the variety of AC is actually very wide. Likewise, its function is not only concerned with cooling. More than that, it is also designed to provide comfortable and quality air in the room by maintaining the humidity of the room and air filters and appearance by paying attention to aesthetic factors that can blend perfectly with the overall interior design of the room. However, the existence of various air conditioning solutions has not become part of the public's attention. No wonder if you often find it, the use of this wall-mounted air conditioner actually becomes a nuisance to the overall design of the space. Not only for residential owners, this disturbance is actually felt by architects or interior designers in designing the entire residence. However, not all interior designers and architects are aware of the existence of air conditioning solutions that provide comfortable and healthy air without sacrificing design. "The lack of knowledge has made AC which should be able to be present as a complete solution for air comfort while at the same time promoting the aesthetic elements of the entire space, has not been achieved," said Ching Khim Huat, President Director of PT Daikin Airconditioning Indonesia. According to him, this is the basis for PT Daikin Airconditioning Indonesia to hold the 2022 Daikin Proshop Designer Award. Registration is open from 14 May to 30 June 2022, this event is a competition for residential design with the application of air conditioning solutions that pay attention to comfort as well as the overall aesthetics of the space. Targeting participants from professional architects and interior designers, according to Ching Khim Huat, cannot be separated from Daikin's efforts in encouraging the presence of a new culture in air conditioning for modern residences. "Architects and interior designers as two professions that are very close to the creation of housing are important elements in spreading the culture of this new residential air conditioning solution," said Ching Khim Huat again. Through the 2022 Daikin Proshop Designer Award event, Ching Khim Huat hopes to increase the insight of architects and interior designers in Indonesia regarding a better air conditioning system with attention to the comfort of various features while prioritizing aesthetic factors. Having a long reputation as a provider of air conditioning solutions for residential and commercial buildings with almost a century of experience in the world, Daikin itself is said to have a complete solution for this need. Among them are Fresh Air units whose main function is to create clean and healthy air circulation, to the VRV Home Series with air conditioning control designs that provide many variants of indoor units so that they can support interior aesthetics. "These various technologies are what we put forward in collaboration with the best works of the imagination of architects and interior designers in this competition," said Selvi Ani Yongnata, Daikin Proshop Manager. According to him, this is also the basis for the choice of Technology for Your Imagination for this competition. Daikin's commitment to its main goal of increasing insight for the two professions in the residential sector is evident in the seriousness of this company in the Daikin Proshop Designer Award 2022. Making it a prestigious event, the Indonesian Architects Association (IAI) Jakarta and the Indonesian Interior Designers Association (HDII) DKI Jakarta, which is known as a big name for these two related professions, was appointed to be a part of the jury panel.

The publication of this work completes a cash prize worth a total of hundreds of millions of rupiah. Still with the same goal, Daikin also made this competition more open. Not only for works that have been completed, but also for competing works through conceptual design competitions. "Along with the great purpose of its implementation.

Jakarta - The government encourages the quality of the workforce in Indonesia as measured by standards of ability, knowledge, and work attitude in the midst of today's fierce competition. On that basis, workers in the refrigeration engineering sector must have a competency certificate recognized by the state, namely through the National Professional Certification Agency (BNSP). The importance of the workforce in the refrigeration engineering sector is stated in the Regulation of the Minister of the Environment Number P.73/MENLHK/SETJEN/KUM.1/10/2019 Article 4 which states that Technicians at levels 2 to 5 are required to have a certificate of competence, while Business Insurers or Activities, in the article it is explained that it is obligatory to employ technicians who already have a certificate of competence. Certification for workers in the refrigeration engineering sector needs to be a concern. Moreover, if examined in more detail in Article 12, it is stated that the imposition of administrative sanctions on the person in charge of the business and/or activity, who does not fulfill the obligations as referred to in the provisions of this Ministerial Regulation shall come into effect two years from the promulgation of this Ministerial Regulation on October 18, 2019. Previously there was only certification level 1-3/AC housing. However, the Ministry of Environment and Forestry created a new scheme based on KKNI No. 41 of 2019, including certification of VRV/VRF and Chiller Commercial AC technicians. PT Daikin Airconditioning Indonesia responded to this regulation by continuously improving itself and improving the quality of its Human Resources (HR). This is evidenced by the fact that on October 18, 2021, Daikin Indonesia, in collaboration with LSP Electrotechnics, will hold an inaugural competency test for the certification of refrigeration technicians recognized by the state, namely the BNSP certificate. Daikin strongly supports this regulation. Director of PT Daikin Airconditioning Indonesia, Budi Mulia, said Daikin Indonesia was one of the pioneers in the implementation of supporting the government's initiative for certification for level 4 and 5 technician competency schemes, namely VRV/VRF Commercial AC. "By conducting the inaugural competency test in October at the Daikin National Training Center Jakarta (NTC), Daikin also facilitated the implementation of certification because of the completeness of practice units, measuring instruments, tools, space, and also has a training center at the branch with complete facilities. It is important that technicians will be taught how to manage refrigerant from being released into the air." said Budi Mulia. Budi Mulia added that this will have an impact on increasing the demand for competent workers in the field of refrigeration engineering. The quality of the workforce will be measured by the standards of ability, knowledge, and work attitudes that were passed during the implementation of the certification. Budi Mulia believes that in the future Daikin Indonesia's distribution network (dealer) will meet the certification requirements to accommodate consumer needs. In addition, Daikin also supports the Ministry of Education and Culture through an MOU with 35 SMKs in Indonesia to date. "We have identified more than 300 dealers who are required to have level 4-5 certification. And for levels 1-3, it is still running until now for all of our dealers," said Budi Mulia. Daikin has a training center called Daikin National Training Center (NTC) which is designed to meet the needs of people who want to learn about Air Conditioning Systems. Daikin NTC is appointed as TUK (Competency Test Place) and has comprehensive equipment from residential air conditioners to commercial air conditioners that are ready to conduct competency tests according to government regulations. In addition, Daikin Indonesia has 13 branches in other regions that are ready to carry out this certification and support technicians in their respective regions.

The pandemic has not reduced activities to remain committed to carrying out the vision and mission, instilling the latest and innovative technologies in active participation in answering problems around air conditioning. This is of course through training and capacity building of the participants. Daikin's national training center is designed to enhance technical competence and raise industry standards. The choice of material that was held was not only prioritized for AC technicians, but was intended for teachers and students of the Vocational High School of Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineering (TPTU), instructors, and students from the Job Training Center, especially those majoring in TPTU. In order to seek preventive measures for COVID-19 and promote its prevention, offline training is carried out with reference to health protocols. The training room and equipment are checked and cleaned regularly. Before the training begins, all participants whose number is limited are required to check body temperature, wear masks, use hand sanitizers effectively and maintain distance and cleanliness during the training. "Hopefully the need for information and training can still be carried out but the health of both participants and trainers is maintained. Let's increase the knowledge and ability of AC with the Daikin National Training Center (NTC) and together break the chain of covid-19," said Budi Mulia.
