Daikin Airconditioning UK, who will be attending the London HEVAR Exhibition on the 26th and 27th September 2007 (stand 61), has recently inaugurated its brand new training facility in Glasgow, offering first class technical advice and training facilities to the UK’s air conditioning engineers. The new office and training facility was officially opened by Daikin UK managing director, Mr Ando, to provide installers, consultants and specifiers with advice and support on the latest legislation and product innovations from Daikin, reveals wnibi.com.

Commenting on the new centre, A/C Sales Director Mick Langford said: “The skills crisis has been looming over the air conditioning industry for a number of years, with many installers forced to travel long distances in order to meet their training needs.” The new office and training facility is based at Glasgow Airport Business Park, just a short distance from the M8 and local transport networks. Headed by Daikin UK’s area sales manager Anne Cameron, the operational team comprises 42 people. Courses at the centre will provide air conditioning engineers with a depth of knowledge on the latest product innovations such as Altherma’s heat pump technology, Conveni-pack, a tailored solution for the convenience store market place and VRV technology.

“Daikin is committed to the continual development of its training facilities with centres already in Birmingham, Manchester and Woking. The new state-of-the-art facility in Glasgow will add further value to our training offering and help to improve knowledge and working practice throughout the air conditioning industry”, concluded Langford.
