okie thanks! actually only one of my bed room is frequently using air cond. the other one is more like guest room and we don't usually switch on air cond in living room as well unless got big crowd. so i assume ME inverter for the frequently used one and how about the bedroom + livingroom?
*
Aircon can be used for longer time, just get a better one, cause you may not change it often.

Like no used Aircon can be power turn it off also.
Everything your pocket money just pay for 1 time only.

Next time got GST of the price lagi higher.

Recommend you ME is easier access to blower and clean out by own.
Also quiet don't have wave noise.
Cooling also quiet good.

My bedroom size is about 14'x18'
What is recommended HP?

thinking to buy inverter tyupe either samsung,Panasonic(Econavi) or Mitsubishi( Mr Slim)
Mitsubishi is the most expensive

If i choose 1.5HP, will it be any issue?
--> eg: extra current usage to cool down the room especially inverter type
I understand that 1.5hp might not sufficient to cool down the whole room
My thinking is as long as bed area is cool, it is ok for me

Attached is my bedroom plan drawing
*
You only way go with 1.5hp also your room is quite empty and also big.

But in the Feng shui on the bed cannot direct facing on the door, maybe you have slightly adjust at center of the room.

Just simple input, pana won't be feel really over cold for you, either you can get york or daikin.

The rest Ah, just invest a little on ME inverter lah.
You won't regret

Face wall means that bed head facing air cond wall is it?
My concern on HP1.5 is that even though bed area already cool but compressor still work hard to cool the entire room.
On other words, it can't reach desired/setting temperature
Thus extra work out for compressor lead to extra current usage even though i choose inverter type
Would like to know whether my concern is correct?

HP2.0 too expensive though
*
Honestly if you really wanna get cold like going into bone then go for daikin/York non inveter but used R410a and setting temp on 22C for most human can't accept that cold like hell.

Also your bed frame move slightly at center of the room, then the air flow will direct to your sleep location as well.

If wanna budget then install York/Daikin 1.5Hp non inverter R410a or ME inverter 1.5Hp pay slightly higher only

That is why go for inverter to be noise reduce and vibration less.

Everyday talks like inverter you guys still go for non inverter and pay slightly less only.

Do you knew why ppls who invest Aircon for improve their sleeping as well, do you know that?

Very simple one day we works hard but for our sleep at night is really most most improved than you works hard.

From 5-8 hours per days at night for sleep with Aircon even your dream also turn become more sleep drame Leh..

Believed me.. Fast going to install next month you would realise your life got Aircon is really like a boss..

Later you much thanks me.

Wall/ceiling fan is already out dated in 2014 today..

then u r actually contradicting to ur statement ... u said fan is outdated and yet u said open air con 24hours is not good for ur health , which is common sense  laugh.gif  yawn.gif

Meant human where got works in 24hours in the cold room or Aircon room?

Normal usage per day from 5-8 hrs is quite common for sleeping needs.

Used ceiling or wall fan = out dated on bedroom is also most common ppls house, but except on living hall.

If you can't take Aircon and got allergy with runing noise then is other case.

Nowadays weather was hot & very dirty also, unless you still living in kampung ulu ulu place still un-devolper place then even not using fan from the room weather is still cold at night time.

So my comments was common sense > All laugh.gif

All are the best, you also smart to skip on 2hp ME inverter.
Is depend your room size lah.

3x3 or 3x4m usually install 1hp
4x5m go for 1.5hp

Installed the Triangle Samsung virus doctor inverter during room reno and yest is the first night using it.

I noticed the coldness not as great as some non-inverter aircon but the air not as dry as others non-inverter. This is the first aircon which didn't dry up my skin and throat during the night.

The compressor is very silent... maybe still new la

The only irritating thing is the LED screen which displays the temp quite bright during the night. If switch on the virus doctor function, there's blue strip of light on the vent which is even brighter. It look cool during non sleep time but a bit too bright when switch off room lighting for sleeping time.

Will comment more when uses more  cool2.gif

Well done for samsung triangle series

I don't give a damn on this rating, if want to compare the rating in proper manner, do look at the sticker on the air conds you want to compare.
Usually Panasonic's rating are more accurate comparing to other brands.
You need to consider all the factors before concluding that 5 star.
*
Sure but not really accurated on cooling system like adjust to 24c and feel like 25.5c at all...

A known seller and installer's mouth are the most honest.
And with repairer to verify.
The most easiest parts to get is Daikin, follow by Japs brand. Kimchi is hard to get.
You have money and time to waste, but I don't have.

Is depend on Aircon hardware shop .

Not lah most easier for york lah

Triangle or non-triangle? Could be old inventory to clear esp non-triangle. If they are fit for purpose and you are aware of their limitations and their maintenance cost (like filter replacement if any) like what I mention above and take steps to mitigate them worth the risk to try.

For me, I would record down the model, check for reviews online, inquire about spare parts (cost of filters which needs m month or n years to replace and PCB) and weigh the turnaround wrt to sushi support in the area. If acceptable, check manual for any special installation requirements* and then get an installer to do as instructed in the manual.

* at least three I can think of:
1. Generous clearance for ventilation like 300mm(12") from back of wall or from the ceiling if under the roof or balcony esp. If that can be met, no reason why it can't be used.
2. Loop the refrigerant pipes one round behind the compressor to avoid excessive vibration etc. (Samsung or LG manuals have these illustration very prominent across their different models)
3. Data/signal wiring to prepare beforehand for indoor to outdoor unit. Samsung seems to use two in addition to default three (LNE=live neutral earth).  So MCB---LNE---indoor/blower---LNE+2data---outdoor/compressor (confirm w manual specific to model)

Plus one crucial thing that only a minority does here (but mandatory all across in SG): use Smartco Paircoil or Inaba Denko Paircoil pipes. kimsim, you might want to take a picture of the piping insulation sleeves and show here of your AC installation.
*
Mine insulation quite simple just like m'sia, I know in m'sia still combine into 1 of insulation.

IN SG was each pipe got thier insulation
