Daikin UK expands merchants network

UK: Daikin UK has opened the doors to four new centres as part of its now 35-strong national sustainable home network.

The centres have been opened in partnership with Plumbco in Northampton, Aberdeen Training Centre in Aberdeen, LBS in Port Talbot, and Tucker French in Surrey.

Daikin is partnering with builders’ merchants, heating specialists and energy companies across the UK to create walk-in locations for homeowners to learn the benefits of renewable heating solutions. 

Local installers can use the centres to access free renewable heating training and resources and trusted installers will also benefit from lead generation and enquiries through the centres.
