Using daikin and pana, very tahan.

You get an underpowered aircon for your living room of course the aircon compressor will keep running. Some people turn on their living room aircon from morning till night, so inverter would be a good choice for them.

Btw why only 1.5hp for an open living room?

bcuz the topic is 1.5hp not 2.0 2.5hp?

also first floor and second floor linked. for what reason you wanna cold down the whole house with a living room air con? when you switch to bedroom just turn on bedroom aircon lo

Just the living room alone already running 1+1.5HP for my place
1.5 only good for one bedroom leh

maybe my first floor is not direct facing evening sun. now my living room thermostat showing 26.3C while i tune my air con to 27C. i can live with that temperature.

I'm asking why you only got a 1.5hp aircon for your living room? Is your living room small? You should get a bigger hp since it's open like you mentioned.

Btw 1.5hp is more like 1.3hp

Panasonic X-Premium Inverter
1.0hp - 9,550 (3,140-11,600) Btu/h Btu/h
CS-XU10XKH-1

1.5hp - 12,500 (3,480-14,300) Btu/h
CS-XU13XKH-1

31% or 1.31. Even the model code write 13 not 15 lol

I defer, I have Panasonic, Mitsubishi and Daikin, Daikin much cooler and more consistent, both are the same age. But i have to admit Daikin is abit more expensive from what I was told. Mitsubishi is the one regretted the most, while on auto mode it will shut all fans once it reaches the said temp, will annoy the shit of out you during the night as the fan will consistently go off and on, the Daikin will at least stay on fan one.

the sofa i am sitting is directly facing my air con. as long as the air con blowing towards me when i am watching the tv it is enough for me.

like i say dont need to cold down the whole area and my downstair living room is not expose to evening sun to begin with.

house front and back facing north and south. although corner lot but west sun shine on my second floor only.

if your house is facing west and sun directly shine on your house of course you need more hp.

sharp is my fav for now.(most efficient) feature packed.

daikin only the flagship can buy which will cost you 1.5x a/c of other flagship. no issues with it other than slightly less efficient compared to my sharp, mistubishi and samsung.

Do checkout our local a/c evoair, its pretty good as a/c. other function not as good as per bigger brands. example aiot functions.
Its the first green a/c i installed which requires water connection to the a/c unit.

panasonic is a bit overrated, its not bad. not good also compared to the others

I divert the drain pipe into the ac unit.

For evoair ?

would it be extra humid and mouldy if say not using the unit for more than 6 months ?

dieking

From my point of view need frequent maintenance.
Need clean every 1 months.

It basically a side throw cooling tower which cool down the condens

Also see btu ratings esp the turbo mode if you need fast cooling

Good one for 1.5hp something like 12,640 (3,070-14,330)BTU/h
Average one like 12,000 (3,070-13,000)

Make sure inverter and try get japanese brand.

dei, if want get inverter you better calculate properly on the space and cooling capacity

install an underpowered inverter aircond is a suicide mission for your AC

living room - min 2 HP or 2 x 1.5HP
masteroom > 500 sq ft - 2 HP
masteroom ~ 350 sq ft - 1.5 HP
room 100- 250 sq ft - 1HP

forget entry level inverter japanese brand at all cost

go for mid range japanese brand or high range chinese brand

This model ok?

I did not experience any issues with their installer. Responses to my queries on Shopee chat was quite timely.
