Daikin Package Unit Reviews | Consumer Ratings

Daikin Package Unit Reviews | Consumer Ratings. Daikin offers package units in the 2 to the 5-ton capacity range. They do have a few models that only go up to 4 tons so check with the dealer to see what is available. Of course, that depends on what you need and the capacity you need. Daikin package unit models offer air conditioners, heat pumps, gas packs, and a dual fuel package unit. Package units are ideal for installation where indoor space is undesirable or not existent for an air handler. Package units are an all-in-one package with everything you need all in one package.

Daikin package units are typically installed on the ground or on a rooftop and ductwork is run to the unit for heating and cooling. This makes them ideal for specific applications for residential and light commercial installations where indoor space is a premium or not ideal for air handler installation for a split system. Various features of select Daikin package units include:

• Select Daikin package units are EnergyStar rated
• Heavy-Gauge Galvanized Steel Cabinet for durability
• Fully insulated blower compartment - this is a common feature among all manufacturers
• Variable-speed ECM indoor blower motor for select Daikin package units
• Totally enclosed, permanently lubricated condenser fan motor which is another common feature among other manufacturers
• 5 kW to 20 kW electric heat kit available for heat pump package units
• high- and low-pressure refrigeration switches for unit protection
• Copper tube/aluminum fin condenser coils with an all-aluminum evaporator coil
• The direct-spark ignition system for gas packs
• Lifetime Heat Exchanger Warranty for gas packs (good for as long as you own your home), 6-year unit replacement limited warranty, and 12-year Parts Limited Warranty

Always remember to register the warranty within the deadline period after installation. Consequently, without proper registration, the manufacturer may not honor any warranty.  If you purchase the high-tier models I recommend you purchase an extended part and labor warranty if available. Additionally, I always recommended choosing the better contractor over the brand. In our buyer’s guide, we recommend getting at least 3 quotes before signing a contract.
