Air conditioning is a sytem that controls the temprature and humidity of the air within a building. Controlling the temperature is being able to heat and cool. Therefore air conditioning encompasses heating, cooling, humidity control, ventilation and Filtration. 

Daikin is the only manufacturer in the world that produces both air conditioning/heat pump equipment and refrigerants, which places them uniquely at the forefront of new developments in technology. This advantage has enabled Daikin to lead the field in designing equipment fully optimised for the newer refrigerants such as R407C, R134a and R410A. All Space Air Daikin products carry the standard 3 year manufacturers warranty of parts and labour, however can be extended to their 5 year guarantee. 

Space Air considers good training to be a fundamental part of its business, so much so that it has a dedicated training facility, incorporating fully equipped lecture rooms and workshops.

In our 30 years experience as distributors of Daikin equipment in the UK we have supplied more Daikin products than any other company. Our many long serving technical staff between them have hundreds of years of valuable industry and Daikin expertise - a knowledge bank that we doubt can be matched by any other company and certainly not by any other Daikin supplier.

More information on Daikin R22 Equipment

If a site in the UK has Daikin equipment still operating with R22, the chances are that we originally supplied it. What's more - if we did supply it - we still hold the details on file! This gives Space Air a distinct advantage when it comes to assisting any building operator with their R22 replacement planning.

Dedicated technical R22 support services

Because we are confident that we can provide the best support services for any building operator looking to replace their old R22 equipment, we have established a dedicated R22 replacement consulting team. The team - ably headed by Tim Boxall and Karl Stauss will guide you through the R22 replacement process from explaining current legislation and background research on system to conducting a full site survey and prepare a replacement proposal, finally providing details of approved Daikin installers and monitoring the progress of the R22 replacement system by commissioning.
