just make sure when you guys service your aircond , ask them to clean the drainage ... mine blocked till my newly bought aircond leak inside unit .. so managed to call a friend of mine , to clean those dirt that blocked the drainage

I am thinking to get CS-V9 RKH-1 for bedroom and CS-S13TKH for living room and both of them are Panasonic. What do you guys think about these models?

Sharp J-Tech inverter.. somehow beside that the aircord didnot safe $$ somehow i think this aircord is not cool enuff

If i am not wrong.. last time York got their aircord from Daikin factory... but now York no longer getting aircord from Daikin... they got from a China brand...




invertor?? I would say NO NO

You need to keep the air-cond on for 6-8hours daily in order to see the result and recommend to keep the temperature above ^22. My house and office room both also on Daikin inverter and the electric bill is cheaper compared to non inverter. Inveter doesn't helps to save electric, if u set to lowest temperature with jz a few hours usage per day.
For those who turn on air-cond for long usage. It's good to pick inverter. Otherwise, just go for non-inverter. Cheaper price


Yeah, Inverter is not cheap in both air-cond and parts.
To me price is not an issue, as long as the spare part is easy to get.
My previous china brand air cond, always run out of stock. Now changed different brand, no more such issue.

I bought 2 (1.5 HP) inverter airconds last year. When I called Panasonic I was advised to set it at 27 degrees and eco and use for 6 or 8 hours to see the savings. I saw some savings for 2 months but everyone complained the aircond was not cold enough! After the complaints, it is set to 21 degrees and my bills was more or less the same like our old airconds without inverter.

I will say R32 will be more energy efficient. However i have not much idea on the pricing.
Would be great if someone can gather and tabulate the pricing for comparison.
In term of energy consumption, should be able to see from online catalogues.

U guys need to know how inverters work.
Inverter is only good for part load conditions as the technology is able to let the compressor to run at slower speed to save energy.
But how the compressor knows when to run at slower speed? It is based on ur thermostat setting.
If u set room temp at 25 deg C, while the room is 24 deg C, it will run at part load. Also means it will only run at part load when the room is cold enough.

Imagine another case, u have a big room /space with substantiate heat gain, but u provide an undersized aircon which is 1hp.. if u do an experiment by recording the kWh on ur elec meter every 30mins interval, day 1 u run the 1hp aircon with no inverter and day 2 u run the one with inverter.
If like i mention, the aircon is undersize, both should be running at full and thus energy consumption should be the same.. therefore u dont see the saving.

Just now searching for R32 and bump into the promo at the end of articles by Mitsubishi. Anyone have experience about this??

How much is the installation for R32 aircon and any diff compare to R410?


I might be wrong but I did not read anything about it being an Inverter but should be non inverter running on new R32 gas...

Thanks

is it advisable to set 16 , i found up that when i set to 20 , the airflow more colder , 16 after sometimes felt not that cold

Hi,

I need 2 basic non-inveter type 1.0HP aircond.

The main concern is the power usage, the lower the better, my electricity bill is kind expensive

Can any experts recommend a brand and model?

Thanks!

Thanks! I decided to get Panasonic inverter and normal econavi for my house

Not sure what air cond option to choose, need some advise.

Living hall - 400sqft -> 2.5hp? initially planing to get mitsubishi ceiling cassette.
Dining hall - ~ 200 sqft -> 1.5HP, thinking of getting either gree/sharp both around 1k rm in lazada.
Master bedroom ~ 200 sqft -> 1.5HP, thinking of getting either gree/sharp both around 1k rm in lazada.
Bedroom 2 - 110 sqft -> 1 Hp, thinking of getting gree cause really cheap only 500+.

All of the above are R410a without inverter. Cause find not worth the extra bucks for inverter and also wanted it cheap for initial cost.

Living hall - 2.0 is sufficient (unless u have more than 5 ppls most of time at living hall, and facing sunset during the late noon/evening)

Dining hall - this is separate room from living hall?

Bedroom - both 1.0hp is enough

brand to choose, pana/daikin/sharp/mitsubishi, but not gree.

how long u gonna turn on the ac?

but my problem is my living and dining is like a L shape without wall / partition.
so 2hp seems not sufficient. so technicall i have a open area from living and dining + kitchen of about 600 sqft with 1.5 at dining and 2hp in living is sufficient?

i see.. then 1.5 at dining, 2.0 at living.. should be good.

It's for the bed room,

Weekday, should be 6 to 8 hours.

Weekend, should be 10 to 12 hours

Then you need to invest into inverter AC boss

Dun believe what salesman said. They will only recon u to buy products that they can profit most.

It does not mean it is good.

In boleh land. It is almost impossible to reach 22 degree temperature unless it is during super late midnight time.

The good temperature to set is 25 or above. Because it is the temperature that typical Aircon can reach, but it is provided that ur Aircon power matches the room size.

If ir does not, no way the temperature set can be reached, then no way to save energy also.

For typical Aircon, if one needs to set temperature lower than 25 in order to feel the coldness, it should mean that the Aircon is under powered.

1.5hp u put at living room or what? If yes, it is likely that ur Aircon is under powered according to ur room size.

this is the reason why u did not feel the coldness and need to set at such low temperature. Of course in this case, there is no way u can save ur bill becos ur Aircon is underpowered.

It is the same logic that u try to fit 5 oversized adult in a kancil and expect a good fuel consumption.
