Damn good air con! I using this now in my condo. far superior to all air con brands I used before. It is shocking that very few people realise just how good Mitsubishi air con is

Mitsubishi and Panasonic recommended by my aircon man. Using Mitsubishi myself so far so good but i only use it when needed.

Thanks for the comments, seems like I'm going to go with Mitsubishi aircon, will be my first time trying so let's hope I won't get disappointed. tongue.gif

mitsubishi dem good. 24yrs ago got recond one from singapore, 2HP, still working today without gas refill, pretty insane. but we rarely use that aircond, not on daily basis.

then during mco got 3x 1.5HP in rooms, very quiet blower and its cold if needed. i use 26c auto and it can reach 26.0 on my xiaomi temperature sensor. very precise.

btw, whats the sun condition of your room, is your room landed or condo?

my hometown bricks tend to absorb the heat but my condo here wont. my hometown aircond tend work much harder than condo here.

Thanks for the feedback. My room is landed, it's almost a rectangle shape, at the end of it is a 8 x 8 full height fixed glass windows with a door to exit on the side, that's the only source of sunlight that will be coming in, but also it may not have sunlight at all as it's facing the back, which is a forest.

Mitsubishi Electric. Their aircon features are very minimal.

One useful feature would be able to control via WiFi.

So far many seems to be recommending Mitsubishi aircon, reliable and quiet according to them.

I'm using Daikin so far so good but I'd like a change of taste, other than Mitsubishi, is panasonic aircon worth looking at ?

If you DIY person and don't bother the brand can try midea inverter series only 2 screw u can remove everything self service indoor servicing without need call Aircon guy at all.

Majority brand still mostly Conventional or some newest one wants to remove self service literally have to remove whole indoor unit or need physical trick.

And is important the outdoor compressor come with rubber feet remember to install or alternative go tyre shop ask if any old tyre tube take whole piece usually free cut roughly the size fit another layer to compressor feet to reduce further vibration .

Mitsubishi air cond do not have that. As i said, their aircond is very feature minimal which could be a selling point.

Panasonic i heard better to buy their more expensive models as they use better parts. Not sure how true is that.

Oh mitsubishi doesn't have wifi feature that can turn on off from the phone ? Any of their models have ? Because this is important for me.

no. mitsu is very old fashioned. quiet, robust and precise, no more than that.

facing a forest.. doesn't sound like you need super power aircond. i think 1.5HP is fine, still have extra juice for extreme weathers like 36c. but mitsu automatic mode really bring the room to the target temperature precisely.

are you the kind that use 26c-ish or frequently 18c?

For Aircon, either you buy top model or chepo model

Like me, I buy diekin, of course spare parts many, but do you know how much it cost to repair? And those Aircon man are experts at telling you to change this and that until repair cost can buy a new Midea Aircon already.

Ok, will most likely go with 1.5 HP, my aircon guy also say 1.5 should be more than enough for my room. I'm the type that always put the temperature on 26, minimum 25 above, i never go below, unless it's very hot, so you think for mitsubishi aircon, going auto mode is best suit for me ?

If you feel that Daikin is expensive then buy Acson. They come from the same factory in Sg Buloh , but cheaper.
