Accelerating Expertise: Daikin Technicians’ Roadshow Hits Top Gear in Trafford

High speeds met high standards as the second leg of the Daikin Technicians’ Roadshow roared into Trafford on October 7th. Combining technical knowledge-sharing with adrenaline-packed karting at TeamSport Go Karting Trafford, this event put both skill and teamwork to the test.

Hosted by Daikin Applied Service and Daikin Rental Solutions, the roadshow is all about strengthening our frontline expertise while investing in the people who deliver world-class cooling solutions every day.

Technical Training Meets Real-World Pressure

Before stepping onto the track, technicians took part in practical sessions covering key updates and procedures for Daikin Rental Systems.

Focus areas included:

• Deploying temporary chillers in emergency and planned maintenance situations

• Troubleshooting Daikin rental equipment in the field

• Best practices in environmental compliance and refrigerant handling

• Leveraging Daikin on Site for proactive monitoring and diagnostics

The focus was clear: deliver fast, faultless field service under pressure — a reality in sectors like healthcare, data centres, and manufacturing where uptime is critical.

Karting That Mirrors the Field

Once helmets were on, it was down to business on the TeamSport circuit — a challenging multi-level track built for strategy, speed, and split-second decisions.

The parallels with field service work were unmistakable:

• Quick thinking

• Precision movements

• Trust in your team

Each lap reinforced the importance of collaboration under pressure, just like on high-stakes customer sites where seamless execution makes all the difference..
