Our air con & heat pump solutions are designed specifically for New Zealand conditions, with energy efficiency ratings and environmentally friendly hydrocarbon refrigerants. This reduces both your energy use and the carbon footprint of your home.
Daikin heat pumps and air conditioners are approved by Sensitive Choice New Zealand – authorised to display the blue butterfly symbol. This makes them a great option for rental properties.
1. Energy Efficiency
Using an energy efficient heat pump will save you money on your electricity bill, reduce your emissions and help the environment. Heat pumps use electricity to move air around but generate their own warmth with a ‘clean’ energy source, making them more energy efficient than other heating systems.
New Zealand climates vary and the way you live will have an impact on which air conditioning solution is right for you. A solution that’s awesome for Auckland may not cut it in Christchurch. Our Home Solution Generator takes just three minutes to create a tailored solution for your unique family.
The Warmer Kiwi Homes grant offers up to $3,000 for insulation, a wood burner or heat pump and draught stopping. Many Daikin split system heat pumps are approved by Sensitive Choice and carry the Sensitive Choice butterfly symbol.
2. Noise
Modern air con units are designed to be quiet, so you shouldn’t have to worry about waking your neighbours at night or distracting you during the day. But older systems can still create noise – the screech of metal on metal tells you that your outdoor unit needs new bearings, for example, while whistling could indicate a refrigerant leak, which is very bad news for your system and your health.
