Industry First! "Takumi's Peace of Mind Care Warranty" Offers Up to 13 Years of Assurance for Store and Office Air Conditioners, Changing Japan's Air.

Our company endorses April Dream, which aims to make April 1st a day to share dreams. This press release is a dream of "Takumi Co., Ltd."

"Good air should be a business infrastructure"—under this philosophy advocated by Representative Hiroki Ohashi, Takumi Co., Ltd. has pursued "standard comfort" for numerous stores and offices, including retail shops, from Akasaka, Tokyo, for 25 years.

As severe global warming accelerates, air conditioning failures are no longer just equipment malfunctions but significant business risks that can shake store operations and product quality maintenance. However, repair costs for commercial air conditioners are always sudden, and for companies with multiple locations, managing these opaque expenditures is a major challenge. We aim to eliminate this "uncertain cost risk" from the Japanese business scene.

**[Industry First: "Equalization of Equipment Costs" Achieved by a 13-Year Long-Term Warranty]**

The symbol of our dream is **"Takumi's Peace of Mind Care Warranty."**

This is a practical solution that goes beyond the scope of manufacturer warranties, significantly reducing the "burden of sudden repair costs" for up to 13 years from equipment installation, minimizing damage to business operations.

* **Industry-first, longest 13-year long-term support**: Covers a full "13 years" exceeding the statutory useful life of the equipment, with an initial 10 years plus a 3-year extension. * **Covers major domestic manufacturers**: Enables centralized management regardless of the manufacturer. It unifies the equipment maintenance contact point for companies with multiple locations, simplifying management tasks. * **Budget management that turns risk into "preparedness"**: Suppresses sudden high expenditures in case of failure (*Note 1), enabling the equalization of annual equipment maintenance costs and more accurate budget planning.

(*Note 1: This service is provided within the maximum amount based on the warranty terms. Also, while it may take a certain number of days for parts procurement, etc., until repairs are completed, we strive for prompt restoration.)

**[Background and Usage of the Service]**

This service was born from the desire of Representative Hiroki Ohashi, who also works as a talent, that "good air should be a given." We hope to make this system, which supports long-term peace of mind and efficient operation for commercial air conditioners where repair costs tend to be high, a new standard in society.

*This service provides long-term support by applying within 3 months of the target equipment's delivery.

**[Takumi Co., Ltd.'s Vision for a Safe and Uninterrupted Future]**

Our dream is to create a society where all stores and offices across Japan are freed from "operational risks due to air conditioning troubles" and can concentrate on their core business.

From equipment introduction to our unique refrigerant management system "Flocon," and further to **"Takumi's Peace of Mind Care Warranty."** By supporting the entire lifecycle of air conditioning, we will build a strong and reliable social infrastructure where "the best air" continues to flow without interruption, even during harsh summers.

"Towards a Japan where everyone can perform at their best, healthy and without worrying about air conditioners."

Takumi Co., Ltd. will continue to change Japan's air with passion.
