Discover the Hidden Potential of Your future Air Conditioner

Calculate your savings

Most people buy air conditioners to improve their quality of life. They can stay cool in summer, sleep better at night, and enjoy a healthier indoor climate thanks to the many built-in air filters. But what if you knew that your air conditioner could pay for itself in just a few years(1)? That’s not a guess - it’s a reality for many households. 

Air conditioner = air-to-air heat pump, and this type of heat source is growing in popularity across Europe year by year. Even in very cold countries such as Sweden, it has already become the most popular choice for residential heating. According to IPSOS data, the primary need of end consumers there is to use air conditioners as an (additional) heating system. In our region, this need ranks fifth(2).

Why do people from colder climates choose air conditioners for heating?

    • Air-to-air heat pumps offer the highest efficiency compared to traditional heating sources like gas, coal, electric or pellet boilers.

    • They heat up rooms very quickly and work well alongside existing heating systems.

    • Additional benefits include cooling in summer and improved indoor air quality. 

We’ve prepared a tool to show you how much you could save by switching to heating with an air-to-air heat pump. Importantly, we’re not replacing your existing heat source entirely - we’re adding a heat pump as a supplementary system. It will be prioritized due to its energy efficiency. Combining two different heat sources is a great first step toward lowering your energy bills.

Calculate your savings

And just as important: we’ve made it simple. You don’t need to be an engineer to use or understand it

Heating Load Estimation: We estimate your heating demand of the building based on the size of your flat and a quick assessment of how well your home is insulated.

 

Indoor Unit Selection: The indoor unit is sized according to the cooling needs of your main living space. In most cases, the energy required for cooling is higher than for heating(3) - and let’s be honest, we still expect our air conditioners to keep us cool in summer, right?
You can choose the model that suits you best, whether it’s a designer unit, the most energy-efficient option, or a basic model.

 

Heating Simulation: We simulate what would happen if you used an air-to-air heat pump to heat your entire apartment. Your existing heating system would only step in when the heat pump’s capacity isn’t sufficient to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature.

This is just the first step. The next one is to contact a local installer, who will visit your home to better understand all your needs and prepare a tailored offer that includes both the unit and installation. This step is crucial, which is why we always emphasize the importance of working with well-prepared installers who have received proper training.

At Daikin, we believe that the best solutions come from a combination of high-quality products and exceptional service. 

Calculate your savings

(1) [Basic example to show that these results are possible, should be done for each country] Ex.: Flat size = 60 m2; insulation type = medium insulation; designed A2A Heat Pump = FTXM35A/RXM35A9; weather station = Poznań, Poland; price for electricity = 0,15 €/kWh; price for gas = 0,07 €/kWh; unit cost = 2000 € with VAT; installation cost = 500 € with VAT; annual savings = 500 €.

(2) [Description about the latest IPSOS study which we got.] Region = Austria, Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Romania

(3) For an apartment of 35 m2 and medium insulation in Poznań, Poland; cooling loads = 3500 W; heating loads = 2450 W.
