Hey guys, need some feedback.
My house have 5 air conditioner unit. 3 Daikin, 1 Hitachi, 1 ME.
My problem is with my Daikin air conditioner unit. 1 of the unit break down a couple of month back. It was a 1.5hp inverter that I had for about 7-8 years I think. It was error code U4 (communication error between indoor and outdoor unit). Daikin technician came to check and it cost me RM9xx to replace the outdoor pcb + motor fan+ workmanship. Cost a lot, but because I WFH and really need the AC, close eye just pay. It was a 7-8 years AC, RM9xx to repair is quite expensive but still acceptable to me due to the age.
2021 I bought my living hall Daikin air conditioner because at that time, I had no issue with Daikin. it was a 2.5hp inverter unit. Last week this unit also break down. Error code A6 (fan motor stuck or something). Conveniently, my warranty ends in April 2023. Now I'm not prepare to spend another RM9xx to pay to these sucker again for an aircond unit just 2.5 years old. I feel like they are selling inferior product purposely for it to break down after a couple of years. I will never bought another Daikin again. 2/3 unit break down after a couple of years is not acceptable to me. My first air conditioner (14 years old 1hp non-inverter ME) is still working fine until this day.
So now my questions is
1. Which brand give the longest warranty right now? I just want a piece of mind not to worry it will break down and cost me almost RM1k to repair.
2. I used to like Daikin due to its Go Daikin app. I can link it with my Google Home and have voice control which is nice. So I would also like to know which other air conditioner that have the same capability to work with Google Home.
So basically I'm looking for air conditioner that have the longest warranty + work with google home support.
Warranty depends on manufacturers promo.
Usual is 1 + 5.
I bought ME invertor early this year .... 2 + 7 (2 units 1hp and 1 unit 1.5hp)
All my current AC are Pana. I am giving ME a shot after some good feedbacks.
I only buy basic AC. Never a fan of features.
