tell the air con seller about this DAMN installer, so that others won't be another victim...... TS, i experienced with slow/ bad after sales service from Mitsubishi, their technician came to check & confirmed compressor faulty only, not repair on the spot. then waited for another 3 weeks and follow up with numberless of call only they came to repair/ change the compressor

sad to say, many aircond people do installation this way. VERY scary. I insisted on them using the metal frame as a base, at least it there is an edge. but if it does fall......

Hmmm...I should insist my a/c contractor when they install for me on near future.

Not sure if talking to the seller would help if the installation is done by others. Anyway, no harm trying. TS should talk to the seller to get them to rectify the problems created by the installers. If house owners do not insist on having the MS bracket to support the compressor, some installer will avoid using that as it cost them RM20-30 each. These people will try to cut cost...

Even if u dont want to drill the holes, at least use the metal bracket and cement down the bracket. In a condo, it is very likely to encounter strong winds and all.. and you certainly don't want to go to jail for negligence over a fallen compressor unit.. money can earn, life cannot replace even with 1 million insurance.. Added on September 21, 2011, 1:59 amQUOTE(kelvyn @ Sep 16 2011, 09:25 PM) For safety reason the compressor should be secured. No question on that. However, since this is located at high levels, fastening the base of the compressor is also going to pose a high risk. How is the worker going to reach the base of the compressor? Later on, when there is a need to service the compressor, how is the worker going to reach the base of the compressor to unfasten the holding down bolts? A good installer would have install a MS bracket that is attached to the wall. Since the fastening bolts are higher up, they can be access easily from the opened window. The base of the MS brakcet will prevent any slippage and movement of the compressor. Generally, the installation workmanship is really bad  No need to fasten every single hole, two or three is enough already provided that they are stainless steel material. Oh ya, anyone ever installed a bracket made from s.steel? Always see only iron (that rusts) being used This post has been edited by ceo684: Sep 21 2011, 01:59 AM

The things he does: 1) drill my wall without my consent just to avoid the aircon indoor unit. Actually he only need to install the indoor unit 2cm lower then everything will be ok, no need to drill at all. When i found out, he already drill 30% of the wall edi, cant be stop.  2) After the piping, the wall is not fully seal off, still got some uneven surface with visible concrete.  How much had you bought this Mit Aircon? 1 or 1.5 hp?

QUOTE(UltraConductor_41 @ Sep 16 2011, 07:14 PM) I asked the person how come dont have screw on it, he said he installed few hundred unit like this and nth happen. Then ask back me "Why other ppl nth happen but u wan to do it?" and keep said the floor that put the outdoor unit cannot put screw, need mounting. I tell him its about safety and even the mounting also mount at floor or wall, any different on that?! then he said "want screw can, need to add rm 30 for the screw". then at the end he said "need add rm 30 wor, u got the money mah??!!"... i was like WTF, i am the unit owner!~ so i just hang up and gonna find someone else to help me done that.  Added on September 16, 2011, 7:17 pmAnd another problem is the aircond piping. My room have pre-installed aircond piping where i dont know its original from the unit or installed by the ex-owner. I always hear water dripping inside the wall whenever the aircond is on, not really sure is it the sound between water and pipe or the sound between water and wall..  Tell us his name,contact and company, we wont dealing business with him anymore.
