Daikin trains over 7,000 installers
UK – Manufacturer Daikin has announced that 7,333 installers completed its specialist heat pump training programmes throughout 2025 – a 20% increase on the previous year.
This included the intensive Heat Pump Training Bootcamp, launched last year, which saw 71 heating professionals trained to install heat pumps. The five-day bootcamp, which is typically free, runs across Daikin’s regional network of training centres. The hands-on course covers installation, commissioning, servicing and water regulations for Altherma systems.
Daniel Jackson, Daikin’s UK Training Manager, said: “Heat pump technology represents the future of home heating and proper training is essential for both the installer success and customer satisfaction. We’re proud to have supported over 7,300 professionals in 2025 to gain these crucial skills.
“As we look to 2026, there’s never been a better time to upskill. The government’s Heat Pump Training Grant helps to alleviate financial barriers and Daikin will work closely with installers to help them access this funding.
“We’re now accepting registrations for this year’s heat pump training programmes and invite people to experience our industry-leading training facilities that play host to foundation heat pump installation courses, advanced system design and commissioning, intensive bootcamp programmes and specialist refrigerant handling certification courses.”
