The Y couple built a resort-type cottage in Aichi prefecture Japan. Both the exterior and the interior walls and ceilings were coated with GAINA. When they first went inside the new house, the freshness of the air was the first thing they noticed.

"The air is not at all humid even without the air conditioner running, it is so comfortable." says Mr. Y. "Even the dehumidifier couldn't collect any water from the air." he states. 

GAINA's moisture impermeability combined with the natural wood has created this freshness. For this couple, the effect of preventing summer heat and humidity was more than they expected. In the Y's previous home (not coated with GAINA) it generally felt hot and humid even with the air-conditioner constantly running. But now, they are comfortable in their new home, and hardly use the air-conditioner either.

 "Every day is so comfortable, thanks to GAINA." exclaim the satisfied couple.
