Lucas Visit Daikin Texas Technology Park

Greentech Engineering Heating & Air Conditioning is proud to share that Lucas Chen (CTO) and Chi, senior technician at Greentech, were invited to attend a two-day factory tour at the Daikin Texas Technology Park in Houston, Texas.

As a Daikin Comfort Pro contractor serving Dallas–Fort Worth, this exclusive invitation reinforces our commitment to engineering-driven HVAC installation and advanced system design for North Texas homeowners.

About Daikin: A Global HVAC Leader

Daikin Industries, Ltd. is one of the largest HVAC manufacturers in the world, headquartered in Osaka, Japan. With nearly 100 years of innovation, Daikin is recognized for:

• Industry-leading inverter and variable-speed technology
• Advanced refrigerant development (including R-32 leadership)
• High-efficiency heat pump systems
• 12-year parts limited warranties on select residential systems
• Integrated manufacturing, engineering, and quality control

The Houston campus — Daikin Texas Technology Park — represents one of the largest HVAC manufacturing facilities in North America, with over $500 million invested in U.S.-based production and workforce development.

For Texas homeowners, this means:
✔ Products engineered for extreme heat and humidity
✔ Strong U.S. supply chain support
✔ Faster parts availability
✔ High manufacturing quality standards

What We Learned at the Houston Factory Tour

During the two-day visit, Lucas and Chi gained deeper insight into:

1️⃣ Manufacturing & Quality Control

We observed first-hand:

• Precision coil fabrication
• Automated brazing systems
• Leak testing and nitrogen pressure testing standards
• Final system performance validation before shipment

As an engineering-focused HVAC company in DFW, seeing the production process strengthens our installation standards — especially regarding:

• Proper line set brazing with nitrogen purge
• 500-micron vacuum procedures
• Static pressure management
• TXV optimization

2️⃣ Heat Pump Technology & Efficiency Innovation

Daikin continues to invest heavily in inverter-driven heat pump systems, which are increasingly important in Texas as energy efficiency standards evolve.

With rising electricity costs in Dallas–Fort Worth and increasing Oncor rebate opportunities, high-efficiency heat pump systems are becoming a practical long-term investment for homeowners.

3️⃣ Product Design for Southern Climate

Houston’s climate closely mirrors North Texas:

• High humidity
• Long cooling seasons
• Extreme summer temperatures

Daikin systems are engineered with:

• Enhanced coil protection
• Smart defrost technology
• Durable cabinet construction
• Variable-speed indoor air handlers for better humidity control

Why This Matters for Dallas–Fort Worth Homeowners

Greentech Engineering serves homeowners across:

• Plano
• Frisco
• McKinney
• Allen
• Little Elm
• Prosper
• Carrollton
• Dallas
• Denton County

Attending the Daikin factory tour allows us to:

✔ Stay aligned with manufacturer engineering standards
✔ Improve installation quality control
✔ Better understand warranty processes
✔ Offer data-backed equipment recommendations
✔ Educate homeowners with transparent technical knowledge

We don’t install systems based on “rule of thumb.”
We design systems using ACCA Manual J, S, and D calculations — and we pair those designs with equipment manufactured to rigorous standards.
