The partnership also embraces a firm commitment to high-quality engineering, sound installation techniques, professional staff training and tip-top after-sales service and maintenance. Important benefits to installers include a 5-year warranty and the opportunity to attain Daikin approved-installer status, both of which Daikin regards as valuable aids to securing business and increasing customer confidence. Membership of the D1 network also implies a complete understanding of Daikin’s massive investment in advanced technology and environmental consciousness. A willingness to embrace Daikin philosophies and standards is indicated by membership of the D1 Network.
