Daikin’s vision on the future of heating and cooling

Daikin Europe N.V. showcases its range of cutting-edge and efficient heating and cooling innovations at ISH 25 in Frankfurt, Germany, during March 17-21, 2025. Highlights include the latest Daikin Altherma 4 residential heat pump, as well as commercial innovations such as the CO2 VRV. With a focus on new solutions for all applications, a strengthened partnership with installers, and a commitment to a safe and unique refrigerant approach, Daikin highlights its leadership in driving an innovative future for the industry.  

New solutions, strong installer partnership and well-considered refrigerant strategy take centre stage.

Innovative solutions for all applications

At ISH25 Daikin introduces its most versatile portfolio to date, running on a variety of refrigerants and tailored to diverse needs. These include the latest Daikin Altherma 4 range running on R-290 and an extended Multi+ range using R-454c (edit 17/03/2025: Daikin Altherma 4 X), both addressing the needs of the residential housing market.  For larger applications, the new VRV with CO2 will be unveiled, as well as the Daikin Chiller, using R-290, which allows a modular set-up for industrial purposes. 

These innovations, complementary to the existing portfolio running on R-32, make it easier than ever to transition away from fossil fuels across applications – whether it’s heating a small home, managing climate control in an office or cooling a factory. With solutions designed for all environments, from scorching summers to icy winters, Daikin continues to empower sustainable, society-wide decarbonisation.

Driven by Care: supporting professionals at every step

Daikin’s commitment to installers is at the heart of its success. Therefore, next to product solutions, Daikin will showcase its professional support and service offer, backed by a large network of skilled installers across Europe. The online residential support platform “Stand By Me” is already widely used by Daikin’s installers. The platform will be further expanded for all residential heat pump solutions, including air-to-air heat pumps. This “Stand By Me Certified Partner” programme will provide training and certification for safe and effective installation and after-sales care.

For commercial and industrial applications, our expertise in HVAC services is now delivered through “Daikin 360 Integrated Service Solutions”. The platform provides all the services needed for installations to run smoothly, and to help control maintenance and operational costs.

With 116 training centres across Europe and a growing network of skilled professionals, Daikin is simplifying the path to partnership for new installers through hands-on and online learning opportunities.
