If because of cheap material used like some joker said, it won't have rusted water droplet. Looks like more on leaking.
And it is still new with warranty, right?
Air cond water are quite corrosive compare to normal city water

Midea kot ..

yes. it still have warranty. only just two month. and i seldom open this air cond. probably 4-5 times until today.
your opinion will be on 'leaking' ??
is it means during outdoor unit installation process ?
or it still probably fault with the manufacturer ?

haiz. my bad luck. of all unit, my unit got this problem.

well, i am now in the tai-chi loop. A point to B, B point to C, etc, etc
well, if any here thought it will cause by the installation of the outdoor unit. please post here.
I now will go for the option calling the shop sales person to contact manufacturer. dunno how long the entire resolution process will takes.

Warranty won't cover compressor water dripping on the base and due to rusted.

Just avoid this brand at all.. Cause they never did the best quality anymore

Midea did much better than hitachi wow

It is condensate (the piping is cold with warm humid air out there, just like a glass of ice water, you have water outside of the glass), not something 'leaking".

Improper insulation of copper pipe during installation also can cause this problem, (the cold copper being exposed too much).

But rust normally happened after sometimes, which depended on the steel plate paints/coating material.

Not to worry. This is condense water as what cherroy mention. And also rain water if the unit at outside. It is why there is hole at the bottom to let out the water. Overtime the mark is there.

But I can see that the leg been scratch out the paint. The leg side will be rust faster. This is installer problem. All the aircon housing have an antitrust coating before paint. All the brand have this similar coating.

of course la ... they are one of the biggest Aircond supplier in the world .


I've been to their manufacturing plant , like 10 x bigger than Qing Dao hitachi - hisense plant .

Go back to the shop you bought it, make noise, if they still refuse to look in to your matter seriuosly, waste rm5 and send them to tribunal court.
This is nothing to do with so-called condensation issues, it is more on installation or blocked cooling fin.



Just the above photos can tell, no condensation shall take place on outdoor unit.
First photo the bottom part do have rust marks, it is due to install too near to the roof and getting water splashes during rain.
While second photo are installed below roof, so it is still clean.

That 2 different unit of condenser is your?

i never get wrong there is after switch from national brand into pana model were over 10++ yrs already, no wonder didn't feel not cold enough, if you compare from the latest condenser design was small and small size than your previous model at all, like a 2hp condenser now.

Nope, I just look for units that have water mark below, just to help you guys justifying cheating are right. Mine are even worst, no rust mark at all, even after 10 years.

that's why your is always doing in prefectly

any a/c mechanic here?

My super old a/c only run for few minutes then compressor stop,indoor unit still running but no more cool air...I can feel slight vibration on the wall before it stopped.

Time for let it RIP

anyone can recommend me 1.5hp aircond below 1.3k

found few model panasonic and daikin slightly above 1k.

can recommend me 1?

thx

May u needs look at the lower price from few China brands.
Midea, hassien, haier, gree, also fujiare too

Looks more like fan failed, you don't need mechanic for this, you check your self first then only call air cond installman.

Non inverter or inverter?
How's the usage like daily? > 5 hours or <5 hours?

should i go for 1hp or 1.5hp for my room..the room is small like 6'x6'..i heard 1.5hp quite saving for the gas instead 1hp..im using for night/sleep since now is very hot to sleep without it..and yes my pc is in the room

1HP already overkill for a 6x6 size.

Are you sure it is a 6*6 room?
A single bed already eat up 3*6 already. So, do measure again.
1HP can fit a room up to 10*12 as the surface area also matters.
Brand A's 1HP won't same as brand B's 1HP.
Over size the air cond's HP won't do any good as it will damage the air cond faster.
