Thanks for your suggestion.
Is there any reason why it is not recommended for York?
It looks cold enough to me.

wow..i like how you judge coldness..
from the looks of it eh?

if you install a Panasonic 1HP in the living room of course not cold enough la..
many factors to consider like supersound said

1) possible
2) Plaster ceiling can be "re-patched" after the job done, not much an issue.
3) No contract will want/dare to drill through a beam, so you need to round it.

You need to check properly in term of load capability of wire and your total loop of the wire, from the point that wish to pull/loop for the air-cond if decided not using directly from the DB.

As even you see is just a plug point, sometimes there is plenty of loop sharing the same supply behind that you do not see.

And also, the rating of the wire pulled original that can carry how much load (A).

Easy way to check, is off the Circuit breaker in the DB, see how many point do not have current, then already know how many loop has been applied on the single pull of wire.

hehe..you see the pictures posted on this forum..
i see plenty of the contractors drill through the beam so the wire can go through shocking.gif

That's because of minute particles like brake pads and combustion engine emissions soot from vehicles or diesel generators. See here. This one is best helped by appliances that deals with indoor air quality. Also air cond if on should be around 26-27 with 1 speed stand/ceiling fan. If cooling room, pre-cool it to AUTO 24-25 deg then when sleeping set it to AUTO at 26-27 and time it to turn off say btw 4-6am. The goal is to maintain humidity that's not too dry for the nose. 26-27 degrees Celsius doesn't produce too dry air. Otherwise put a basin of water in the room or invest in those air purifier that uses water to trap the excessive dust particles like Venta or Stadler Form Robert.

Err..you do know how the Air cond works right?
setting it at 27 deg C actually give you a lower relative humidity.
which translate to drier air

Why not sure ? I live there of cos i knw the usage pattern . I have 9 in total but sometimes i need to on 6 . But that is not my question.

i wanto install cassette 2.5hp or 3hp for 2 units for my living and dinning hall . But my installer told me there are one phase and three phase compressor and advised me to choose for three phase for effiency and more electricity saving .

even at 3hp, you are dealing with around 2.5~2.6 kW of power draw.
the electric cable can cope for this and you dont need 3 phase.
for 3 phase, i believe the wiring and switches will be more complicated.
you need to pull 5 wires instead of 3, the normal double pole switch cant be used etc.

For the power savings, based on panasonic data, there's not difference in EER.
so i think your contractor is trying to make a bit more money from pulling extra wire for you. brows.gif

Thanks bro. I will call them and check.

do you have the econavi thingy on?
if you are sleeping, the thing will detect as no human in the room and switch to power saving mode (increase room temperature)

Yes. I always have the Econavi on. There will be a blue light at the aircon.
So i should off that?

i think you should off it.
anyway..is your electricity bill much higher than the previous unit?

dont understand also why some ppl keep saying R410a is super power god refrigerant when the EER is almost exactly the same with R-22.
improvement maybe just by tiny bit.
inverter will give you better EER rather than just changing refrigerant.

what kind of calculation are you running?
cable size or power consumption?

the main thing is, non-inverter has a fixed EER
for inverter, the EER is actually better (higher) at low load conditions
so when pre-set temperature is reached, the inverter can be very efficient compared to non-inverter
