Maxlite paint is the cheapest white paint and is commonly used for ceilings.

Frankly if you have high ceiling, you can add a color accent for L box ceiling such as painting the flat ceiling in the middle a light/dark shade of grey or champagne like color and paint the L Box part white color only.

Second accent alternative would be to paint the sides of the L Box part instead and the rest of the L box & ceiling in the middle white.

Mine is also very low that even my other half can reach out to touch fan with hand when fan not switched on so having mostly white ceiling does not draw too much attention to the height.

Saw this on the net. Like the picture with blue color for the flat ceiling in the middle of the L Box part, can paint with a neutral or cool shade for your L Box ceiling.. Or else just paint the vertical sides of the L Box like a strip of borderline around the square part.

No. It's the photo angle when it was taken I believe because sometimes I do that way for my photos.

keke, it would be really wierd to have false ceiling for a slanted ceiling unless built that way with concrete ceiling

Yes princessgalaria is right. Installation charges between 100-200. However they provide standard trunking distance. So if trunking distance is longer, will charge more for extra trunking material. But standard trunking, piping is foc since it comes with aircon, compressor.

My installation charge is RM160. Trunking is mounted on the wall closest to the window and run outside. This is for DST. Seems this installation charge is standard at the shop where we also bought our aircon and downlights from.

The problem is the trunking layout itself and whether you choose the longer route to make the trunking less obvious in common areas . For e.g; if trunking goes down from above after coming out from the room to living room before exiting outside, this kind of zig-zag pattern means longer route, then the charge will be extra I believe? Straight line and shortest route is best.
