August 16, 2024

Daikin Comfort Technologies North America, a leading manufacturer of heating, cooling, and refrigerant products, received a 2024 Seal Sustainable Product Award for the Daikin ATMOSPHERA, the first single-zone ductless heat pump system in North America with R-32, a low Global Warming Potential (GWP) refrigerant.

SEAL (Sustainability, Environmental Achievement & Leadership) Awards is an environmental advocacy organization that honours leadership through its business sustainability awards. The SEAL Sustainable Product Awards honour innovative and impactful products that are literally “purpose-built” for a sustainable future.

“We are honoured to receive a SEAL Sustainable Product Award for the Daikin ATMOSPHERA. Daikin is committed to decarbonization and electrification efforts, and with the launch of Daikin ATMOSPHERA in 2021, Daikin led the industry in North America with the switch to the next generation of refrigerants that have a lower GWP compared to conventional refrigerants like R-410A,” said Marc Bellanger, Marketing and Communication Vice President.

The Daikin ATMOSPHERA single-zone ductless inverter heat pump system is ideal for spot cooling and heating needs in residential and commercial spaces. In addition, it is an effective source of heat to offset old, inefficient furnaces or boiler heating systems. The Daikin ATMOSPHERA ductless system is easily applicable to both renovations, for areas that may not have had prior heating or cooling, and new construction, for areas where it is desirable to have comfort control of a single area such as an office, bedroom, or living area. This is the first single-zone ductless heat pump system in North America with R-32 low Global Warming Potential (GWP) refrigerant honoured by environmental advocacy organization.

“Daikin ductless inverter heat pump systems are efficient, quiet, discreet and use state-of-the-art technology. Our products are designed to be highly efficient all year round, and their low energy consumption can help lower energy bills for homeowners,” stated Connie Schroder, Ductless Portfolio Leader, Daikin.
