It was created because the amount of dust in the room sometimes became abnormal due to air pollution caused by PM2.5 and photochemical oxidants. In Japan,when the outside temperature is high and the amount of dust is high,the concentration may be high indoors。 In this case,air quality was improved by using the air conditioner。 I also used an air purifier In addition,filtering the outside air reduced the amount of dust in the room,so we created an adapter that can be used with a HEPA filter.
I tried filtering the outside air easily with a HEPA filter for vacuum cleaners from makita
Makita HEPA Filter Collects 99.97%of 0.3 to 1μm dust A-68965

A thin plastic plate that is easy to work with and has a certain degree of strength is processed according to the circular shape of the adapter(Photo)
If necessary,attach the adapter to the plastic plate and fix it with glue etc。
Select a window with aheight that is easy to install,process the plastic plate according to the window frame,and attach it to the window frame(Photo)
A few things to note
(1)It is possible to measure and confirm whether the ventilation is properly and effective。
(2)When installing easily using a window,make sure there are no gaps。
Air can pass through the filter well by sealing the gaps between the windows.
Regarding the cleanliness of the air,it is possible to judge whether the air is clean by the sensation of the wind hitting the skin,but it is easier to measure(Photo)。
Regarding the installation of the filter,I think that it is common to attach the filter to the ventilation port。
When installing on the window frame as shown in the photo,it is necessary to consider airtightness。
A window frame that is at a reachable height and that has a smaller window frame size is easier to test.
In addition,since there is also a security problem,we recommend that you install it temporarily to check the filter effect。
·If you use an air purifier at the same time,it becomes easier to check that the air has been cleaned。
·When the humidity of the outside air is high,the filter effect is that case,using the air conditioner together reduced the amount of dust in the room。
·Convenience such as ease of installation,durability,and filter performance has been improved compared to the original frame using surgical mask filters.

In addition,this design will be an upward compatible version of the design released at the same time as HouseMask
If it is difficult to obtain a HEPA filter,it is possible to use a surgical mask non-woven fabric or a high-performance filter。
Added July 21,2023 Depending on the structure of the house,such as the height and direction to install the filter,there is an optimum location,so changing the installation position or installing multiple filters changed the ventilation situation. Basically,if you install it in a sunny place,it seems that ventilation is good due to the temperature difference etc。
