Cooling off with the "Air Multiplier" this summer



Approximately 30 units of the "Air Multiplier AM02 Living Fan," developed with Japanese living spaces in mind, will be installed in early July at Kongobu-ji Temple, the head temple of Mount Koya (which will celebrate its 1200th anniversary in 2015 and was registered as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2004 as Sacred Sites and Pilgrimage Routes in the Kii Mountain Range).

The Air Multiplier takes care of the "coolness" for visitors and monks alike

Dyson | Air Multiplier 02






Since the earthquake, interest in environmental issues within society has grown. Mount Koya, from the perspective of traditional Japanese religion, has been actively communicating on environmental and energy issues.

Mount Koya, which will mark its 1200th anniversary in 2015, sees monks dedicating themselves daily to making Esoteric Buddhism, introduced by Kobo Daishi Kukai, beneficial for many people living in modern society. The Dyson Air Multiplier was chosen to suit their living environment and to welcome summer visitors.

With "problem-solving" as the core concept for research and development, Dyson's Air Multiplier technology, born from extensive research into fluid dynamics, was created through a deep understanding of barometric pressure principles.

The Air Multiplier, which generates airflow 16 times the volume of the air it draws in by entraining surrounding air, delivers a smooth, consistent breeze without blades. It will undoubtedly create a comfortable environment for the monks living amidst the natural beauty of Mount Koya and for the many visitors.
