Daikin launches a new Sustainable Home Centre in London to support heating engineers with heat pump training and heat technology.
Daikin has officially opened a new Sustainable Home Centre in London, expanding its UK footprint aimed at promoting renewable heating solutions. The dedicated facility serves as both an interactive showroom for end-users and a specialized training hub for local heating and plumbing contractors.
The opening reflects an ongoing push across the UK heating sector to transition domestic properties away from traditional gas boilers toward low-carbon heat pump technology. As national regulations slowly tighten around efficiency standards, dedicated regional hubs are designed to help regional trade installers gain necessary certifications and technical support.
For London-based heating engineers and plumbers, the new centre provides direct, local access to manufacturer-backed training, hands-on demonstration models, and technical design assistance. Transitioning to heat pump installations requires tradespeople to invest in specialized tools—such as digital manifold gauges, press-fit tooling, and pipework machinery—alongside formal MCS accreditation. Having a local hub helps installers assess equipment firsthand before making major financial investments in new kit. For DIYers and landlords, the venue provides a space to evaluate heat pump options and connected control systems alongside qualified professionals before committing to installation costs.
As the demand for energy-efficient heating grows, facilities like Daikin's London centre help bridge the skills gap for local installers. Access to manufacturer expertise ensures tradespeople remain competitive as low-carbon heating demands increase across the capital.
