Did the technician show you what was fried? usually when fried by lightning you see some burn marked.

Free installation if you buy Midea air con from Perfect Living Exhibition October at KLCC convention centre.

hey guys, portable aircond, Ok or not ? the ones without hot air hose. I takut not cold, or use too much power. the room is 16x17 feet.

inverter aircond is not you said only saving for operate at 4-5 hours.

there is when you start and faster keep cold and reduce the power consumption from 800w - 200w per hours.

cause the non-inverter may need taking 1 to 2 hours for keep cold down the room temperature.
once is reached and stop the main compressor and most of the time just listen the compressor on & off until next morning or set to lower at 22c to be force the compressor slowly to stop running.

the inverter is when the temperature is reached and to be reduce the minimum speed to keep it same temp. and also reduce the outside fan speed.

so your bill on 1 - 3 hours still payment the minimum of power consumption of 200w per / hr.

cause my house all using the mitsubishi electric on living hall & 3 bedroom for operates at 8-12 per day the bill is less than Rm200< per months.

living hall for 2.5hp & 3 bedroom for 1hp x 3.

why not pay extra fews bucks for installed and keep your monthly bill lower.

NOW GO FOR GREEN AND NO MORE FOR NON-INVERTER FOR YOUR NEW HOUSE.
SAID GOOD BYE OF NON-INVERTER.

everyday & night just on & off for what.... 

Cause the non-inverter for salesman can earn better commission.

Once you installed and the rest you will facing the trouble on monthly bill for 1hp at Rm100++ or higher usage.

The inverter only take your bill around Rm30++ for fews monthly later your installed fee and extra cost for inverter to be reback already.

I'm planning to change my old air-con soon. Between Panasonic and LG, which should I go for? And what's the street price for inverter air-con now? Thanks for your help.

When one set the temp to 22c, does it mean the aircon will make the whole room at 22c? perhaps yes, perhaps no, it depends on your aircond power, room size, number of windows, number of persons, location, the room temperature may not reach 22c even the compressor running all the time.

Human sense temperature differently, there is a term call windchill effect, if you set the temperature at 25c but you are directly facing the aircond blower, you will feel the temperature below 25c probably like 22c, but if your position is quite away from the aircond fan, you will feel it is much hotter.

If you ask specifically, Daikin will prefer the power supply to be near the condenser (outside unit) rather than the internal unit for their Air cond installation.
Of course usual for other brands the power supply are installed near the internal unit.
Usually air-cond installers will know what to do to work around this issue.

Hitachi inverter aircon also does the same thing if the temperature is set to higher such as 26c, when the aircon sense the ambient temperature is lower than your room and the aircon doesn't need to cool the room anymore, hence it shutdown to further reduce the energy use, when it start back again, it still under partial load not like traditional aircon which does full load running.

Dunno, this is what I was told by my concealed piping contractor, my electrician, my wetwork contractor (ex-aircond installer) and Daikin telephone service technician helpdesk. 

I'm curious about my inverter aircon wiring. Can help me to take a look? Is it done properly? It seems like my power cable is being connected to the indoor unit and the installation manual stated it should be connected to the outdoor unit. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Arh!!! I really fed up with the aircon installer. He do job without heart 1... uneducated as well! I think the wrong wiring has something to do with my compressor fan as well coz it operates full load no matter i switch to the lowest temperature or higher temperature.

just bought 2 mitsubishi 1hp @ rm1020 each including installation from a shop in bandar puteri near HLK there. 1.5hp quoted @ rm1299.

when read got people bought 1.5hp @ rm850, feel shortchanged.

not delivered lar, its CASH N CARRY, i check the invoice is 1.5hp with correct/ tally serial no  

wta noob question, when doing conceal piping, must the drain pipe be insulated as well? thanks alot

Is it normal to charge extra if the copper pipe is long? Since the distance between the compressor and ac is quite far like around 7 ft. Nt on the same wall. Or isit included already in the installation charge.

I thought is 10 ft? and all expose. Conceal extra lots of extra charges.

Not 4tf lah, my previous house more than 4 ft, did not charge. Nearly 10ft.

10ft for normal aircond...  but for inverter, I noticed some offer std installation up until 5 ft only.
