Perfect warmth at a cooler price
THE ANSWER TO RISING GAS HEATING BILLS IS DAIKIN
Gas prices are growing year on year and experts are predicting they will continue to climb for more years to come. This is bad news when your gas heating amounts to approximately 69% of your gas bill.
Major changes in the gas market have increased the running cost of gas heating appliances for Australians. The amount Australian households pay for gas is heavily influenced by the higher prices gas exporters can obtain from other countries. As a result, Australian households are paying more for gas1.
Now for the good news...
Households can make considerable savings of up to 41%* on their heating running costs by switching to a Daikin split system.
Our Research and Development team compared average running costs of a gas heating system versus a Daikin split system. This comparison was based on delivering identical heating running times from both options and then calculating the running costs.
Daikin Split Systems are
