Your living room a/c, you intend to run long hours?  If living room are open area the inverter may not be helpful if is at big area.

You can actually put inverter pipe, and use non inverter a/c

I doubt so, is like having thicker pipe doing the same job. You can ask your installer, they can advice. The installer will put in an adaptor to reduce the size if it too big.

I only got to know this after I Put in all my copper piping. Another installer told me he did it.

d a/c installer said 1....owh so if i wanna buy mr slim, its manufactured by MELCO?
are air cons by Mitsubishi Heavy Inndustries any good?
*
MELCO = Mitsubishi Electric

Both Mistsubishi Electric and Mitsubishi Heavy Industry MHI abang adek company la ........

Both cater for different customer need. Equally good so far.

Mr SLIM from Melco can DIY Cleaning but MHI cannot but for thorough cleaning, u will still need to send it for services to aircon man.

Very noisy mean like a machine vibrating sound?
I can't set specifically for the guest room as I wish to use it as I wish to use as my activities room (surf net, listening music and exercise room.

What's in my mind is i can use the portable aircond so that I'm more flexible to it where I can use in my dining place and main hall if guest come or hot.

Any suggestion or I just install one first then only decide later to install in other places. I just wonder if I wanna install couple if a/c, I believe I have to change the whole electric box to cater higher power in future.

I duno how to tell u the noise, why dun u dropby some shop or Carrefour to test it out. Frankly like i said IF you're OK with the noise, the irritating Exhaust pipe, not requiring COLD requirement, just cooling cooling liang liang feeling only, then a portable aircon should be able to do the job.

Dining place and Main Hall, Portable aircon can forget it you can't feel ANYTHING unless you point the aircon at you direct, then u will feel cooling a bit.

Normally when you bought a house, before you shift in, you will already need to plan on the wiring of the whole house and points so that later won't be too messy ma. But anyway, you can fix one by one aircon, no need to rush, this is how i fixed mine, hehe ....... after 4 yrs, i have fixed 4 aircons, one by one la.

Actually what you need to calculate is the BTU then you will compare with your aircon's BTU.
BTU is more accurate than HP in term of cooling capacity.
Use this calculator

Frankly, buy only known, established brand, where a lot of aircon man knows how to fix or service.
Unknown brand you are happier buying it at a good price but suffer the maintenance cost along the way, which i think is not good. cool2.gif

Means how much is the temperature you're trying to bring down, say 37 Degree C, you're trying to bring down to 26 Degree C so at this column u fill up 11 degree C

Hi,

You can use rule of thumb just simply use the total square feet of air-cond serving area X 60-70Btu/hr.
10,000Btu = 1HP...

Hi,

Portable air cond is good for the sake of you can locate the air-cond wherever you like BUT dont forget there is a discharge hot air behind the unit that you need to transfer it out using the provided flexible hose. If you not doing so the hot air will circulate with the cold air hence you will not get the coldness and also waste electricity bill.
