Alongside the growing company of Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd. In Japan, Sanyo thrives to be one of Japan’s sought after electronics manufacturing company. Toshio Iue, the founder of Sanyo, initially started the company who produced bicycle lamp generators. ‘Sanyo’ literally means ‘three oceans’ which refers to the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian Ocean.
The post-Korean war was a time of marketing opportunity for Sanyo to expand and increase their product demands. The Japanese economy soon developed its economy in the mid-1950s and grew a demand of home appliances came about. Sanyo Co took that opportunity and had a great success with its products from air conditioners, washing machines, radio, etc.
Its success throughout the years was undeniable but the Japanese company eventually was purchased by Panasonic in the year 2009. This was due to the earthquake that struck in 2004 in Japan that made an irreparable damage to the company’s plant that resulted to net income loss. This makes Sanyo an owned subsidiary of the Panasonic Corporation.

Popular Services for Sanyo Units
General Servicing
General servicing is fundamental for maintaining air conditioning efficiency and reducing costs. It involves disassembling and cleaning the front panel, cover, and air filter to enhance air quality. Additionally, the vacuum evaporator coil is cleaned for optimal airflow, while the blower parts are vacuumed to remove dirt and mold. The service also includes clearing the drainage pipe of rust and bacteria, along with washing and vacuuming the water tray.
Chemical Wash
A chemical wash offers a thorough cleaning solution for air conditioners that haven't been serviced in 6-9 months. It uses chemicals to clean the air filters, fan, and cooling coil, with the blower also being dismantled and cleaned. Recommended annually for frequent aircon users to eliminate accumulated dirt.

An intensive procedure exceeding the chemical wash, the chemical overhaul involves dismantling the entire unit. It includes thorough cleaning of components such as drainage pipes, heat exchange coils, and blower wheels. Ideal for air conditioners that haven't been serviced in over 9 months and are experiencing issues like leaks or unusual noises.
Servicing Process for Sanyo
1. Open the Cover
Before trying to clean your Sanyo AC, make sure that it is powered off and it is unplugged from the power source to avoid injury. The split-type AC follows a quick raise flap on its front panels. Simply grab the either sides of the front panel and raise it upwards until you hear a click sound signaling it has positioned steadily upwards
2. Remove and Wash the Air Filter
The air filters for Sanyo AC have two sets of filters found just behind the front panels. This can be identified by its screened membrane panels positioned just in front covering the internals of the AC. This can easily be removed by unlocking it from its brails on the upper and lower sides and grabbing it away from the unit.
There are two ways to efficiently clean the large air filters for the Sanyo AC unit. First, if there is only minimal dirt found simply tap it with one hand in an open area. Another way is to use a vacuum to suck out the dirt found on the filters. Thirdly, if it is really difficult to remove the dirt, you can wash the filters with a running tap water and a detergent soap to soften some clogged dirt. Rinse it thoroughly and allow it to dry outside in a shady cool area. Take note that some of the Sanyo filters are very delicate so carefully wash the filters not to destroy the membrane.
3. Replace the Air Filter
Make sure that it has thoroughly dried out before putting the filter back into its place. The filters are placed back just as how they were removed. Position it on its brail to secure it from falling off and disrupting the cooling process. The two filters should all be in its place and not just either of them. This will destroy the unit if only one filter is positioned inside the system.
