DAIKIN HVAC PRODUCTS
Gas Furnaces
With high Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) ratings, Daikin furnaces offer a modern and efficient take on traditional residential heating.
Designed to operate effectively at all levels, every Daikin furnace is sure to keep your home comfortable while saving on energy bills.
Air Conditioners
As one of the biggest names in the HVAC system, Daikin does not disappoint on the top-notch quality of its centralized air conditioning systems.
Daikin’s intelligent central AC systems come in a variety of models to ensure there is a proper fit for every type of home.
Heat Pumps
Contrary to the name, heat pumps can actually function to both heat and cool your home.
During hot summer months, a super-efficient Daikin heat pump will funnel out the warm air from inside your home. During chilly winter months, the heat pump will do the opposite, bringing warm air inside to keep you toasty.
When paired with a Daikin air handler, a heat pump can effectively keep your home at a comfortable temperature year-round, especially here in Indiana, where we rarely experience sub-zero temperatures. However, some Reliable Comfort clients enjoy pairing a heat pump with a backup heat source for added comfort.
Air Handlers & Coils
Air handlers and coils do not sound glamorous, but they are particularly essential to getting the most out of a Daikin HVAC system. Air handlers control the speed of the motor, helping deliver consistent airflow, temperatures, and humidity levels.
An evaporator coil sits on top of the furnace and removes humidity in the warm air that passes through while at the same time cooling it down.
High-quality air handlers and coils are essential to getting the most out of your Daikin HVAC system.
Packaged Units
In some cases, a heater and air conditioner combined into one packaged unit is the ideal HVAC solution. Packaged units are especially practical for spaces that do not allow for a classic split HVAC system.
Daikin’s packaged HVAC units can sit on the ground or on your roof and deliver comfort throughout the seasons. These efficient, self-contained units represent zero hassle and full comfort.
Ductless HVAC Units
Many homeowners are looking for a ductless solution to HVAC. They want the power, comfort, and efficiency that comes from a centralized HVAC system, but may not have the budget or perhaps may only need it in certain areas of the home.
In this case, Daikin offers superior ductless HVAC products. Whether you need heating or cooling, Daikin offers both single and multi-zone ductless HVAC systems.
These are known as mini-split systems and are a great solution for homeowners that want to control the temperature of different spaces in their home without springing for centralized HVAC.
FAQ
What is the average life expectancy of equipment?
Most systems have a lifetime of 10 to 20 years. As your equipment gets older, it’s efficiency can decrease dramatically. You may notice that it gets noisier and needs repairs more often. When a unit begins to show it’s age, you have two choices. You can overhaul the system or replace it. Because heating and cooling technologies improve over time, a new system designed with newer, more energy-efficient equipment makes sense, especially if your system is 10 or more years old. We can estimate the cost of a new system as well as a payback schedule that will show you how newer technology will pay you back in lower energy usage.
Will a bigger sized system perform better?
No, you don’t want your air conditioner to be too big. Air conditioners control the comfort level in your home by cooling the air and by removing humidity. An oversized air conditioner will cool your home faster, but it will use more energy and will not remove humidity adequately.
What do SEER, AFUE, and HSPF ratings mean for me?
SEER, AFUE and HSPF are all measures of energy efficiency. Air conditioners may look similar, but their Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating (SEER) can vary widely. Higher SEER numbers save more money spent on electricity. A 13 SEER air conditioner, the EPA “current minimum standard”, uses 23% less energy than a 10 SEER unit (EPA standard up until Jan. 2006). Even though 13 SEER is the minimum efficiency available, we currently offer a line of air conditioners that start at 13 SEER and go all the way up to a 21 SEER . Depending on your average usage, higher SEER air conditioners can significantly reduce your electric bill.
Is Freon as a refrigerant being discontinued?
Yes. As of January 2010 the refrigerant R-22 (what consumers call Freon®) is no longer allowed to be used in the manufacturing of new equipment. R-22 has been used as the “standard” refrigerant for many years but has been found to be harmful to our planet by our government. All new air conditioners and heat pumps use R-410A, the more “environmentally sound” refrigerant.
