zirhk3355 1 Report post Posted July 9, 2007 No lah, air curtain is to prevent cold air and/or hot air from escaping/entering, not to prevent the smell leh...Kindly enlighten the ignorant: what's air curtain?You go any supermarket, walk past the auto sliding door (or sometimes no sliding door), there will be a strong breeze of air coming from a machine on top of the door.

Compensate I must know the market rate right? I only know it is not cheap Unless he buys back same model for me.Is the size the same for any model? Cos Panasonic is pretty big.Quite confusing....which door....kitchen to service balcony or to the hall...Pls consider, bifolding door or folder door.
