Daikin brings HVAC service under one brand

BELGIUM: Daikin has brought its diverse HVAC service offerings, from commissioning to modernisation and rentals, under one brand. 

Daikin insists that its new Daikin360 brand will provide a structured, lifecycle-based approach to HVAC system management, enhancing efficiency, reliability, and sustainability.

While HVAC services have often been viewed as secondary to equipment sales, Daikin360 will give Daikin services their own strong, independent identity, making it easier for customers to access and engage with the full range of service solutions available, the company says. 

Having been debuted at ISH 2025, Daikin360 is set to be rolled out across Europe.

Supporting every stage of the HVAC lifecycle, Daikin 360 will also untilise Daikin Cloud Plus and Daikin On Site for real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance.

The service is intended to be adaptable for local markets, allowing tailored service solutions that align with regional requirements.
