Daikin has launched a new white paper designed to show how HVAC systems can boost return on investment for the hotel industry. 

Such systems are essential to hotel operations, ensuring guest comfort is maintained across various areas. However, Daikin says that evolving legislative changes and technological advancements mean holding onto outdated HVAC systems is costing hotels more per year than they realise. 

The manufacturer says Enhancing Return on Investment Through HVAC System Upgrades shows how upgrading to Daikin’s latest VRV 5 systems can reduce energy use, cut CO₂ emissions by up to 71% and improve guest comfort, all while delivering a strong return on investment.

Technological advancements are pushing older system parts out of circulation as newer systems rise in favour, generating higher maintenance costs and degradation of systems. As a result, guest comfort is compromised, energy bills become higher and rooms are out of service for longer periods of time, leading to reduced revenue. 

Harry Whitehead, Corporate Clients Division Manager at Daikin, said: “Ageing HVAC systems tend to be overlooked, but they can burden the profitability of hotels. By discussing the consequences of ageing systems on return on investment and guest experience, whilst also highlighting the modern systems Daikin offer that solve these concerns, this paper seeks to offer hotels their solution to increasing efficiency and profitability.”
