Is a underfloor ventilation fan necessary?
Some of you may be hesitant about introducing the effective equipment for pest control under the floor and preventing foundation deterioration (moisture control), known as "underfloor ventilation fans." Why is ventilation under the floor necessary? We have created a page that clearly summarizes the effects of forced ventilation and installation. Under the floor, a certain area of openings is required by the Building Standards Act. In other words, it mandates that there must be a ventilation opening of a certain size for moisture control under the floor. However, when looking at actual single-family homes, there are always ventilation openings, whether they are square grilles or full-perimeter ventilation with foundation packing methods. In recent years, homes using foundation insulation methods (especially in northern regions like Hokkaido) have also been built, but in this method, the underfloor is connected to the interior, and the underfloor is considered part of the interior, so there are no ventilation openings under the floor to prioritize insulation effectiveness. The adoption rate of foundation insulation methods is still low, but moisture issues are not nonexistent. I would like to touch on this topic on another occasion.

Building trust with underfloor ventilation fan users.
The Importance of Customer Management The decline in population due to the aging society and low birthrate has become a social issue, affecting the consumption activities of the public. How can we overcome this? Acquiring new customers is important. At the same time, maintaining relationships with customers that we have worked hard to acquire is arguably even more important. This is because connecting with new customers (business development) incurs the highest costs for a company. If existing customers are satisfied and continue to purchase various products and services, contributing to the company's revenue, it will reduce the costs needed for acquiring new customers, or allow for more investment in business development. Our company has been focusing on the utilization of items aimed at strengthening customer touchpoints, while experimenting and refining our approach. This time, we will organize and present the details of that effort.

Reasons to reconsider "attic ventilation" before using the air conditioner.
The reason the air conditioning isn't working well might be due to the roof. With the ongoing extreme heat, it's easy to lower the air conditioning temperature, but the causes of "not cooling" and "high electricity bills" may actually lie in the "attic." Japan's summers are becoming increasingly severe each year, and many households are likely struggling with the heat, especially on the second floor. In fact, the source of that heat is the heat trapped in the "attic." [Table of Contents] ■ The attic can get as hot as nearly 70°C in midsummer! ■ First, let the "heat in the attic" escape outside! ■ You can feel the effects at night! ■ Installation takes just one day; now is the chance before summer hits full swing! ■ This summer, let's start with "attic ventilation."

Is it really okay to rely only on air conditioning during this year's extreme heat?
【2024's Scorching Heat】The Heat in Your Home Might Actually Be Caused by the "Attic"? Japan's summers are becoming increasingly severe year by year. In 2024, we are expecting record-breaking heat, and indoor heatstroke and dependence on air conditioning have become serious issues. This is especially noticeable in two-story homes, where the temperature rise on the second floor is significant, and it doesn't cool down easily even at night. One of the causes is the heat trapped in the "attic." Due to the sun's heat beating down on the roof, the attic temperature can reach nearly 70°C even when the outside temperature is 35°C! 【Table of Contents】 ■ The reason your indoor temperature isn't dropping might be the "attic." ■ Therefore! For indoor heat countermeasures, try 'Kaze no Suke 24.' ■ Stay cool and quiet even while sleeping. ■ Be aware of the most overlooked "source of heat" in your home. ■ This summer, let's start with "attic ventilation" rather than windows.

Introduction to Rebar Detectors for Concrete Foundations
Introduction to the Bosch concrete detector (Model No.: D-TECT150CNT). This product can detect the position of rebar in concrete foundations. It has high accuracy and can detect both depth and vertical/horizontal dimensions. When drilling holes in concrete foundations as a post-processing step, having such a detector is convenient. (Although the list price is relatively high, it can be purchased at a relatively low price online.) 【Features】 - Capable of detecting the position of rebar in concrete foundations - High precision - Can detect both depth and vertical/horizontal dimensions - Convenient for drilling holes in concrete foundations as a post-processing step
