As said, you need to consider all the factors.
Just say, without this solar panels, you are spending rm200 for your electric bill monthly. But once you install this, you may only paying rm150, for long term it is something.
But for just investment sake, I think it is not that good.

I see the wrong one. Solar panel heater won't absorb much like those solar panels.
Yours only cover 10-20% while the other type can cover 50% icon_rolleyes.gif

Under warranty or not your house?
How you wire the air cond?

A few times it tripped and my aircond guy told me better change to 3 phase. Easier. What do u think?

Bull sheet. Ask him to fly kite doh.gif
If the wiring of air cond are tapping from 1 of your plug point and you are using non inverter > 1HP type, you will be busy reseting the MCB and later busy fighting fire.

That is because they want to do free advertisement in forums.
Just make 1 car with some effort then other cars take back the effort.
History are proven this, KL's some reputable shops are giving sheet type of quality.

They've 6~8 air cons in whole house becoz of sub-dividing the rooms.
They are doing the room rental kind of business.
People from oversea came and rent room to stay just for few nights.

The tripping happened quite frequently nowadays.
Just a month ago, it tripped but no fire or anything.
The TNB guy also came and replace the fuse.

Have to lodge a report to local council already, as they are doing illegal business.

Ok, good luck to you. If the TNB technician only change the fuse rating, I suggest you to sell your house.

Single phase meter only have red LED that blink.
But 3 phase meter got green color display during night, can check voltage(mine highest was 255V during normal run) and current thumbup.gif
Is good to have a check on incoming voltage every now and then. A rm38 Sunwah multimeter is a good start. Or if you are fanatic enough, a Fluke multimeter whistling.gif

Check for any open circuit, check voltage on plug points.
Anything > 245V, I'll call 15454.
