It's time for action

Daikin is calling on the next Government to decarbonise the UK’s domestic heating sector

Daikin’s message for the next Government

There is no doubt that we are facing a climate crisis, and the world is on the brink of irreversible climate change. 

The next Government needs clearly defined policies to support the roll-out of domestic low-carbon heating, coupled with incentives for installing them, as well as further investment in infrastructure, training, job creation and communications. 

This will not only help the UK achieve its legal commitment to reach Net Zero by 2050, but perhaps more importantly, it will speed up the delivery of long-term, affordable heating solutions to all households, while providing business stability and job security to installers.

Why switch to a heat pump?

In 2019, 17% of heating emissions from buildings came from homes1. This is comparable to the contribution of all petrol and diesel cars2. Heat pumps are suitable for most properties in the UK, but more needs to be done to support their roll-out.

 

An air source heat pump can replace or enhance your existing central heating system to heat, cool and provide hot water for your home. It’s the sustainable way to save money, future-proof your home, and reduce your carbon footprint.
