Daikin UK: efficient home climate control

Daikin UK is the British division of the Japanese manufacturer Daikin, focused on residential climate control solutions. Its home catalogue includes heat pumps, air conditioners, air purifiers, ventilation systems and smart controllers. The company presents itself as a provider of energy-efficient systems for heating, cooling and air purification.

Heat pumps: heating, cooling and hot water

The heat pump is the cornerstone of Daikin's residential offering. These units can replace or complement an existing central heating system, providing heating, cooling and, with the addition of a tank, domestic hot water. The firm markets air-to-water and air-to-air heat pumps, the latter also known as air conditioners. The website includes a calculator to estimate the costs of a heat pump and potential savings.

Air conditioners, purifiers and ventilation

Within its residential range, Daikin offers air conditioners that provide year-round heating and cooling, with the option of adding a tank for domestic hot water. The air purifiers are designed to clean and refresh the air in the home. The company also markets centralized residential ventilation systems with heat recovery, aimed at maintaining a supply of clean, fresh air. Smart controllers for managing these units complete the offering.

Advice, grants and installer network

Daikin UK facilitates access to sustainable home specialists for free advice and has a network of associated installers. The company shares information about public incentives such as the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, which includes grants of £7,500 for air-to-water heat pumps and, soon, £2,500 for air-to-air heat pumps. The website also mentions that the Autumn Budget confirms a reduction in electricity bills of around £150 per year from April 2026, which according to the company can increase the savings associated with switching to a heat pump.

After-sales services and technical support

The company offers warranty, maintenance and technical support services, as well as apps and connectivity for controlling the units. The Stand By Me programme is part of its service offering. The company also has a contact centre for customer service.

Presence at trade shows and outreach

Daikin is participating as headline sponsor at Grand Designs Live 2026, where it will showcase home comfort solutions. The company publishes articles and case studies in its inspiration section, and offers a virtual experience centre.
