Bought new Daikin non-inverter 1HP to replace old York aircond age almost 20 years. Noticed vibration/rattling noice from panel cover. My installer lodge complant for me. Daikin just came to my house fixed it just now (within 3 working days). 2 technicians came. 1 of them is Senior. Found it's due to fan motor positioning. The senior fixed the issue less than 30 minutes. Felt they quite pro to explain the issue to me.

Under warranty. Why charge if it's due Daikin product own issue. Same like to other electrical items eg fan issues, I never been charged.

Why new unit want to fill up gas? Foreseen leaking?

Do you switch on fan as well? If so, 1HP not enough cool? 1.5hp maybe sufficient n can use normal wiring. If 2Hp, rewiring may be required.

Then that explained why you need 2HP. No wonder many said the top of 2.5 storey don't make it as bedroom.

Not me. Anyway even if put reflective sheet won't much help too when under extremely hot weather.

What you meant no display? Or just the screen turn black or burn out? You can search DIY in youtube to fix it.

Usually if blow hot air and compressor not working is due to capacitor spoil. Do check.

Just bought few 1HP & 1.5HP Midea non-inverter units for my rent units in KL recently. Price wise definitely cheapest compare to Japanese brands. Was recommended by friends even few aircond installers.

Latest price for Midea with installation for 1HP (<RM1.1K) & 1.5HP (<1.4K) based on number of units you want to buy.

Well if landlord no need to pay single cent then ok lah.... Tenant won't care much of it.

Installer fault, just get him done at his cost.

Just install by stick on the filter.

daikin need to pay for the wifi apps? MY own Daikin non-inverter 1HP which bought somewhere May 2023 and now still can use app to control the aircond. The app itself show Fee+ 2 years extension. As per website https://www.daikin.com.my/smart-control/ normal features can be used forever only those PRO need to pay which I think not important.

Dunno about Hisense. For Midea all easy pro got active clean/ self clean. Kind of manual press but good enough.

No idea I seldom use this feature. I still manually clean filter myself. I like this model easy to clean up internal part.

I'm using Midea All Easy Pro 1.5hp. Previously Daikin 1HP in master room. Am not sure how consumption because other rooms got Daikin 1HP (non-inverter type). Frankly speaking this Midea inverter not as fast cold as those Midea non-inverter type 26C (installed at apartment which I rent out). Could be due to the inverter setting that slow cold up the room. These few days very hot and only set at 24C.

One thing I noticed is that Midea All Easy Pro blower wheel yet any visible dust as compare to Daikin non-inverter type despite almost 1 year usage. I switch on Midea All Easy Pro auto clean almost every one or two week. Clean up filter quite frequent which same as other brands (every one or two months). Therefore yet any chance to me to try up their user friendly function to remove out the blower wheel to wash.

I use Midea All Easy Pro SmartHome app most of the time vs controller. Only use controller to turn off the aircond LED displace (app can't turn off).

And can access when you not at home thru mobile data.

What pre filter?

I'm using one in my living hall since 2007. I think Easy Clean Design one. So far only capacitor changed twice.
