QUOTE(kianchun555 @ Jan 15 2014, 09:07 AM) I do agree with you up to certain extent. However, direct dealing shall depends on the items which you are dealing with. For some home appliances like your microwave, washing machine, refridgerator, TV etc, it can be direct contact or send to the main distributor/manufacturer for warranty. However, for items like Air-Cond, it required some skills to dismantle the unit, hence, calling a distributor directly may not be the best solution. I have to agree on this.I personally feels that, it is best to get a shop with good reputation and after sales service, of cause, sometimes their price might be slightly higher but it will save you lots of troubles when anything happened. This is similar to buying insurance product, but nowadays, consumers main concern is only focused on 1) PRICE, 2) PRICE, and 3) also PRICE. Therefore, when problems arises, then only start to regret People generally focus on what good brand to have, what brand has better deal, what brand is good etc. but never focus on getting good installer. While, when air-cond not function properly (leaking gas, not cold etc) time, then straight away blame xyz brand is not good. In reality, many issue arised have high probablity due to improper installation, poor workmanship on installation, nothing to do with xyz brand or abc brand issue. So get a good installer also a crucial factor. From experience, common issue on installation. 1. Improper leveling on blower unit, due to poor workmanship, drill the hole sideway or not according to the position leveling intended etc. Poor leveling will cause the water inside the blower cannot flow properly, slight of dirt blockage, water leak to outside. 2. Improper installation of compressor, causing vibration on compressor, shorten life of it. 3. Improper positioning of compressor or blower, causing poor air-circulation, resulted not cold etc. 4. Improper soldering on copper pipe, causing gas leak, air-cond not cold. <--- this I had seen in real life and even in this forum, many people blame abc brand or xyz brand, while in reality nothing to do with which brand. |

QUOTE(exkaizen @ Jan 29 2014, 10:38 AM) I want to know too, maybe through recommendation and word of mouth?Also is it true it is better to find an installer that specialised in certain brand? I installed a few Panasonic units of CU-PC9MKH and it is not cold after a few weeks usage. Then complained to the manufacturer and they sent their repairman that discovered that my installer only filled the gas halfway. According to them, this Panasonic model method of filling the gas is a bit tricky and not all installer knew how to do it properly. This post has been edited by Chigme: Jan 29 2014, 11:11 AM |

Is acson good? Quality and after sales?
I was quoted for acson for normal 2.5hp with installation at rm2500. Does the price expensive? I was quoted as well for daikin 1.5hp r22 inverter with installation at rm1800. Does it expensive? This post has been edited by exkaizen: Jan 30 2014, 04:01 PM |

I still prefer Panasonic, already used for 8 years and still standing strong.
Anyway, any inverter type won't save money at any 1 time. If you turn on for 10 hours, then it will save you 10% Servicing non inverter only rm100-200 while inverter type rm200-300 minimum. Also, if everyday also exposed to long air cond hours, doctor also more happy to serve you. Best still make sure your house is well ventilated and make a hole on top of the roof either with ventilator or sky roof. Plant more green outside. Ceiling must be flat and not "designer" concept having angles, while it is good to see, but ventilation are very very poor. Also make cleaning harder. |

Nobody said inverter can't saving electric bill than non inverter, also nobody can tell you not operate long hours or short hours can be save or unsave power consumption. Anywhere you're the inverter user than you would feels than inverter won't cheat your pocket money. And also inverter or non inverter for parts and maintenance nobody can guaranty you after warranty can be spoil or higher cost than non-inverter unit. Buy electric items or devices is depend your luck. Anywhere you wanna just go an buy, don't think so much, now is 2014 already. Huat ah.. |

Mine is Mitsubishi electric inverter only set in min. 25c and low fan speed, my Living hall 2.5hp inverter operate from 10am to 11pm everyday on my electric bill only cost me less than Rm400 with another 2 units operate everyday over 8 hours. Anywhere Panasonic if choose from deluxe model these still much efficient than lower end inverter. You can compare from outdoor power consumption input watt and BTU.

QUOTE(kimsim @ Feb 3 2014, 01:16 PM) 1st you may check what is ur brand and how many temperature do you pre-set? They set 19-20c. Set 25c with low fan speed and still getting rm400 of bill. So that's your logic on bill savings. And at 25c, air cond won't really work and will shorten the starter capacitor lifespan greatly.Mine is Mitsubishi inverter only set in min. 25c and low fan speed, my Living hall 2.5hp inverter operate from 10am to 11pm everyday on my electric bill only cost me less than Rm400 with another 2 units operate everyday over 8 hours. Anyway, I spend rm1200 on installing ventilator on the roof top, seal all the odd angles on ceiling. The hall air cond now very seldom used. My bill only rm70-80 every month. If calculating based on your bill, I only need 4 months to get back my rm1200 investment. Plus my lung is stronger compare last time on using long hours of air cond. |
