Under the terms of the new Standard warranty, product registration is strongly encouraged. All Daikin products may be registered online at daikincare.com.

    New Daikin Warranty Plus Limited Liability Warranty: Among many other advantages, Dealers qualifying for the Daikin Warranty Plus program will benefit from an extended warranty period at no cost. To qualify, products must be registered by a Daikin dealer who has reached the required Daikin training points and purchased through an authorized Daikin distributor or manufacturer’s representative. In order to receive the Daikin Warranty Plus limited warranty, the product must be installed by a Daikin trained dealer in accordance with all of Daikin’s published instructions. Daikin Altherma equipment installed must include a completed Daikin Altherma Commissioning Report.
