Daikin just proved that air conditioners don’t need to look like an eyesore
Daikin introduces new colours of its popular Stylish air conditioner
QUICK SUMMARY
Daikin has expanded its Stylish air-to-air heat pump range with five new colours, including leather, wood and fabric finishes.
The Daikin Stylish air conditioners are packed with sensors and technology to heat and cool your home, while also purifying the air.
If there’s one thing that the UK is known for, it’s having terrible weather. Simply put, the temperature and climate tends to be cold, grey and rainy, which is why only about 5% of UK houses have built-in air conditioning units. Instead, portable air conditioners and fans are more commonly used in homes.
But over the past few years, the weather has been getting hotter, and many people have started to look for permanent cooling solutions. But another drawback to installing a full air conditioner is that they stick out like a sore thumb, and do nothing for the aesthetics of your home.
Now, Daikin, best known for its HVAC products, has expanded its Stylish air-to-air heat pump range with five new finishes. Now available in eight different styles, you can now get a Daikin air conditioner in leather, wood and fabric-inspired designs to help manage your home’s temperature while looking less of an eyesore.
Daikin’s Stylish air conditioner is designed for year-round use, and uses an integrated thermal sensor to scan the room it's in to detect different temperature fluctuations. From there, it spreads air through the space and targets specific zones that need extra heating or cooling.
As it cools or heats your home, the Daikin Stylish air conditioner has Flash Streamer technology that allows it to also work as an air purifier. It continuously purifies the air in your home, removing and breaking down allergens and odours to leave your house feeling fresher and cooler.
To avoid droughts and uneven cooling, the Daikin Stylish air conditioner also uses the Coanda effect to guide air along walls and ceilings. It definitely gives a chill but in a more natural way so it doesn’t feel like you’re walking into a freezer!
As you may expect, an integrated air conditioner isn’t a small cost, but the Daikin Stylish air conditioner is extremely energy efficient so it can reduce your ongoing usage costs. It also comes with smart controls, including the Daikin Onecta app and Alexa and Google Home voice assistants, so you can use it hands-free.
Instead of a big block unit in a bright, harsh colour, you can now get the Daikin Stylish air conditioner in natural colours, including light and oak-style wood, dark brown leather, and grey and blue fabrics. The actual unit itself also measures just 189mm deep so it’s extremely slim, too.
The one thing I’ve hated about the recent UK heatwaves is how hot my house has been, so investing in an air conditioner is my next step to manage the heat in my home. I think getting one that doesn’t stand out, like a Daikin Stylish air conditioner, is sure to encourage more people to make the investment to manage the rising temperatures.
