Looks like is the gas pipe connected point has leaking,
Do you have ask your Aircond installed come back and check?

not yet.. will need to ask the shop today....
not sure how long it will take for them to come back and repair...

For normal is really not gas at all they will be come back as fast.
Within 1 day time.

Is it a bad smell? Probaly the water remain and infect with bacteria that cause the odour smaell.

If the gas leaking, it will continue leak till finish. It won't wait for you to on the aircon first.

not really bad smell...but it feel like strong gas...

does this means if the its a gas leak ... it will leak till finish and no more cold air after that ?
cause.. i do smelled strong gassy smell... but after a day.. i on back... it seems the air are still cold...

but before all this things happened.. 1-2 days after installation, when on the aircond.. there are cracking sound..

i am not sure if this is due the bad installation...

For my experience if brand new Aircond got smell of anti virus filter but just for few days only.
If cracking sound is due to fancoil base plate installed not propery.
For light breaking is mention the easy clean vent is installed unpropery may have take out and plug in again for 2 air vent.
If unpropery installed the light braking is cannot switch on.

thanks for the info bro...
just want to confirm whether if there is gas leakage... the aircond shall have no cold air already rite ?

Anyhow will check with the reseller today .. tx

Yap sure is no gas at all you does not feel the cold air is blower out only heat and hot like normal fan.

Can I asking about your Aircon have the moving eye sensor right.
So how is the work?
Can help for saving much?

no bro.. dont have it since mine is 1hp only.. the sensor is on 1.5hp
well, yest tried again and seems its still cool... so i guess there shall be no leakage... rite?

will wait and see if got the same smell again before going back to the shop

Gas won't stop leaking even you on/off. It keep on leaking till finish. Either fast or slow depend on the hole.

It is most probaly the bad smell from the water leftover with bacteria infect. very common.

Is it the cracking sound start when the motor fan start to run? Probaly something touch the fan or the swing fin.

Sometime the cracking sound come after few min. That due to temperature different and some part expand and shrink.

no... cracking sound start as soon as on the air cond.. the compressor kicks in only after few minute...
how to avoid the water left over ? and how to prevent the bad smell in future ?

For the bad smell is won't be happening of future, maybe is due to drain plate have water collection.
You can try to used something like hard paper or other thing to putting 1 side up and letting the water fail smoothly.

But for normal is the Aircon contractor they have to resolve for you.

You can take a look of the fan coil will be installed too flat does not fall 1 side to drain pipe discharge point.

This mostly aircon installation problem. The aircon didn't tilt slighty to the drain pipe side. Let the water gravity flow to the drain pipe.

This got to solve by the service guy.

This is typical and very norm.

Experience twice, installer didn't tilt a bit for smooth draining, as we know, dust can be built up overtime, and if the air-cond is not tilt a little more, a slight dirt can cause water staying inside, and worst, blockage and water overflow.

Last time use to service the aircon by myself. You can see the dirty water and the slim at the water collection drainer. I don't know how many bacteria n there.

Nowaday when I clean the filter, I use the dettol to spray at the condenser to disinfect the fin and the drainer. Before putting back the filter.

I always wonder, does the air blow out contain bacteria or really clean.

Don't be so "fear" or some said paranoid about bacteria this, bacteria there. No offence.

Everywhere also got bacteria, just keep it clean enough, will do good already.

You spread antiseptic now, bacteria died off now, but grow afterwards, what's the point, periodic clean it will do the job already. That's why condenser is taken down to wash with water-jet after sometimes, when it is too dirty time.

None of your breath air is free from bacteria. But if the condenser is really really dirty and bacteria growth a lot, for sure, bacteria count could be higher than normal, but the solution is to clean them, not spraying antiseptic chemical.

Using too much antiseptic chemical is not doing good for the health, as well as promote super resistance bacteria only.

Hi all

Actually you can apply for additional air filter it is will help your fan coil and fin to keep clean at all time.

One filter can used up to 3 months time.
But also can spray with water wash and dry up to reuse for one more time.
where can buy? Go to Daiso store can get it at Rm5 per package.
Inside have 2 pcs can attached both of air filter.
If can't get can try to filter of hob it is same using.

Can be try it out.

If I feel free to replace my air filter, I will sharing some photo of here.

Please post the photo for sharing, many thanks first.

The problem, it fit?
Some are quite tight fit on the filter side already. Little space left.

Some brand filter is like no working at all. Filter just a little dirt, but blower inside underneath catching dirt until become like brush with lot of fur (the plastic fin), eventually causing little/no air coming despite the blower being set at max speed.

He... I Not really that worry about bacteria. Some bacteria is not harm too.

With 8hr blowing everyday during sleep, 365day, I need to makesure the air as clean as possible. When I have flu or running nose that take time to cure, I will take extra measure to clean. Others time just normal filter clean.

But it reduce the air flow and create a resistance to the blower.
