Panasonic Heating & Cooling Solutions has expanded its technical helpline to provide further customer support with a larger team and a host of new online tools designed to help customers when they need it most.

Richard Bishop, Head of Marketing for Panasonic Heating & Cooling Solutions UK and Ireland commented, “During these times of change, we all accept that technical call centers and helplines will be more difficult than normal to reach, the impact of staff working from home is understood and in general we all give a little extra compassion to the call handler. However, we at Panasonic have decided we need to do even better, and as such we have invested in expanding our Technical helpline team to improve availability and offer even more support.

New Features

One of the new features is a video support function, enabled by the technical support call handler, it allows the two parties to see exactly what is being discussed and offers real-time assistance and advice with regards to what is in front of the installer, and not what the call handler imagines is happening.

This can help to remotely diagnose issues, ensure real-time knowledge sharing, and significantly speed up repair rates. In this way, highly skilled engineers’ time can be focused on providing world-class technical support, quickly and when it is most needed.
