Hi, the aircon point done by my developer is above the sliding door for living room and above window in masterroom. Should I install curtain or air con first or it doesn't matter? The distance frm ceiling till the window is 60cm plus, is that enough place for air con? Wanna install 1.5hp in room and 2.0 in living room.

Will you put Plastec Ceiling? If yes, than you need to make into consideration.

Gap between Curtain and windows will need at least 3 inch (7 cm)
Gap between Aircorn point and ceiling or Plaster ceiling is 15inch (38cm), this is good for 3HP too. (need consider if you put in downlight)

As I just facing this problem after inplace plastec ceiling and endup need to hack the aircorn piping again.

No, I won't be doing plaster ceiling, because I like higher ceiling, so the height between window and ceiling will be as what it is now. 60 cm minus 38 and 7 means I only have the space of 25cm for air con. Not enough...

For my case, i did plaster ceiling...follow by a.cond and finally curtain.

Then I'll better find my air cons (and the position too) first before getting my curtain quotation.

You are enough.
60 - 7 = 53. So you have 53 cm to put your aircorn assuming you will not put plaster ceiling lol

Ops sorry, I misunderstood earlier. 53 cm.. How about the gap to leave between curtain track and air cond? The curtain will obstruct the wind flow from air cond?

You have 17 cm  (53-38) to play around the gap with the track and air corn lah.

You need to those the aircorn folk who install the pipi where and how high your track be, they will know how to arrange it.

How my aircorn folk measure is start from the "bottom of the aircorn water pipe" till 15 inch, those will belong to aircorn. 

I have done by aircorn piping around April, where the aircorn folk have done a good measurement which allocated 22 inch from pipe to the root, included 7 incn after plaster ceiling. But end up it need to drill again, as the plaster ceiling folk make it 9 inch, which cause the pipe and plastec ceiling on leave 13 inch. With this 2 inch I have to pay extra to drill again as I didn't want to open a Box at the plaster ceiling.

This is another area which short of almost 4 inch after plaster ceiling in place  mad.gif, and you could see how the whole measure should be, and ease you to understand

Thank you, I'm clearer now.. But really.. installing air con seemed like a nightmare to coordinate between these folks.

Is it better to let the contractor install my air con or let it be done by the aircon seller?

Get the aircon seller do it, as not only included hacking your wall but also need to fill in gas and so on for your new aicron. 2) Any problem on the aircon you still could ask the aircon seller to support 3) Your contractor not specilist on aircorn  sweat.gif
