Dusty odor is an odor which smells like cement, remains after attached and rotten odors have been removed by washing. This paper describes the cause of this odor and a method to reduce it. Surface analysis and smell evaluation results suggest that the dusty odor is caused by a little corrosion of substrate aluminum. Compressor on-off cycle test results suggest that hydrophilic coating film dissolves little by little in condensed water, and substrate aluminum is exposed. A method to prevent the odor is developed by forming a bacteria preventive surface treatment with hydrophilic property and durability against condensed water on the evaporative surface.
