“We are honored to receive a SEAL Sustainable Product Award for the Daikin ATMOSPHERA,” said Marc Bellanger, Marketing and Communication Vice President, Daikin. “Daikin is committed to decarbonization and electrification efforts, and with the launch of Daikin ATMOSPHERA in 2021, Daikin led the industry in North America with the switch to the next generation of refrigerants that have a lower GWP compared to conventional refrigerants like R-410A.”

In addition, it is an effective source of heat to offset old, inefficient furnaces or boiler heating systems. The Daikin ATMOSPHERA ductless system is easily applicable to both renovations, for areas that may not have had prior heating or cooling, and new construction, for areas where it is desirable to have comfort control of a single area such as an office, bedroom or living area.

“Daikin ductless inverter heat pump systems are efficient, quiet, discreet and use state-of-the-art technology,” stated Connie Schroder, Ductless Portfolio Leader, Daikin. “Our products are designed to be highly efficient all year round, and their low energy consumption can help lower energy bills for homeowners.”
