* Ucan Underwater Heater for Humidifiers
A steam humidifier using Ucan’s PTC underwater heater can control humidity comfortably with steam.
A specific type of steam humidifier can be mounted on the air conditioner or independently installed on the ceiling. These steam humidifiers are certified by a government-authorized institution as Japan’s only electric steam humidifier that can be safely installed in ceilings. By taking advantage of this feature, Ucan has commercialized and sells the humidifies for use with ceiling cassette indoor air conditioner units and as a steam humidifier for ducted installation in the ceiling. There is also a type that can be independently installed in the ceiling and a floor-standing type.

1. Mexico, a hidden vein of gold in the global air conditioner market
Mexico is the largest air conditioner market in the Spanish-speaking world. Signs of economic recovery have boosted air conditioner demand in the country, and its market has posted solid growth over the past several years. According to JARN data, the Mexican air conditioner market came to 977,000 units in 2013. Mexico’s population tops 120 million, with a high proportion of young people and a low penetration rate of air conditioners. It is therefore an attractive market that holds ample potential for future growth.
