Think of replacing my old Panasonic R410A [2859 kWj / year] Aircon
Reason being annually will have water leaking issue, gas leak few times d and patched. Think almost 7 years d this unit. Issue started since 2020 MCO time till now.

Eyeing on this right now : https://www.lg.com/my/home-air-conditioners...18klppa-atwgsee

Any comment or other recommendation?

Location for AC is at Living room

Just bought and installed LG-S3-Q12JAPPA 1.5HP aircon

Not sure is good buy or not with everything discount + 5 years warranty @ RM1.9k

So far still learning the AC which ThinQ app kinda limited and less feature than remote controller, lol ..


Actually this range of purchase pricing can recommend which alternate AC eh ? ( 1.5 ~ 2.0 HP )
Think of replacing my other room's AC which has 10 years usage already sweat.gif
Energy consumption is pain.

Not bad the price. I think LG is nice because you can manually turn on the inverter to save power. However this manual inverter mode is only available on the remote. It also log usage by hours which is nicer than Samsung.

On the other hand, I believed LG inverter is rated at 4 stars instead of 5. Power consumption is slightly higher than Samsung which is rated at 5 stars for their premium range. I just double check and it seems like your model is rated 5 stars instead of the JA2PA which I had.

A lot of people are questioning why I didnt choose Japanese brands but honestly my experience with Samsung triangle inverter is pretty good, hence I stay with Samsung and buying another LG to try since I bought them cheap. I even installed a 1.5HP in my living room due to this manual inverter whereby I can lower the power consumption since I will be using them with ceiling fan. Where did you bought them since the price is kinda cheap? I kinda regret didnt bought more to stock because I got my 1.5HP (older model) from Onking warehouse sale which dump them for 1.25k and even with additional 2 years warranty, it still cost less than RM1.5k.

Initially i have most Samsung appliance in 2018 (marketing too strong) but most of them broke down after 2 years+

Samsung Front load Washing machine and Oven the moment default warranty habis (2 years +) start having issue :\
WM repair few times (out of warranty) and dun wan bear the cost anymore, change to LG Top load.
Oven lucky has 5 years warranty.

Samsung TV last the most until 2024 roughly then the power unit macam gg , need change but no time to find ppl fix yet. Mid of 2020 also bought LG OLED C series.

Now aircon mostly 2015-2017 Panasonic model and high consumption so trying LG as well test water.
If good then slowly replace all.

See the energy saving button? You can set it to 80%, 60% and 40%.

Default is 100% aka manual energy saving off (default mode is let the temp reach desired setting before inverter kick in). I dont use this function in my room because the default is colder and save more power.

I'm only using this for my living room 1.5hp. I use my ac with ceiling fan just to cool down to comfortable temp. So initially I let it run full power, after like 30minutes when its comfortable, I turn energy saving to 60%, which ultimately made it become like 1hp ac. Lets say normal mode power consumption is 1200w/hr, with 60%, it will slowly limit the power to 720w/hr. Hence even when you set the temp like 22c which is unreachable for living room, you can use this mode as manual inverter to reduce power consumption.

Oh, energy saving, this one i've been using also but tru the app.

I always use 60% which actually can hit the comfortable level in my living room.
100% will always complaint by my wife saying too cold sweat.gif

Avoid Korean AC. Spare parts headache.

Panasonic is godlike for power saving. Not cold. Yours are inverters? If the Panasonic works then just use first, get a good service guy to check and service. I usually use Acson service these days.

Yes Panasonic is inverters but then super old model already.
The 5 stars rating is showing 2,859 kwh

Got service and maintenance all the while and also replacement of those copper things.

From what i knew thru national geographic channel, lizard actually help to eat insects and pests 😅🦎🔥

It just once in a while ive seen lizard when thru certain part of the aircond, i think should be no problem 😏🔥

I always try to avoid lizard from coming into my house which literally only 1~2 ekor tiny one will slip in.

Only recently there's one sneaked in and really like to go behind my new LG AC =.=
Now i wanna try to catch it and halau it out.

Keep hearing "tsk tsk tsk"

Even though pest control come to my house do all sorts of things, yet still lizard managed to survive 😅🔥

Not that many, just a few 😝🔥

I normally just block the bottom door there as well as windows using mosquito net

Always knock the door before open / close to chase away the lizard which normally love to climb in straight when we open the door.

But like cannot totally prevent it at all to come into the house XD
They always like to test your limit.

I remembered one time my parent house AC got one stucked inside and dead, gg the smell when turn on AC.

Yea, luckily not inner part, just need to "pull" it out and doesn't really affect the AC performance.
