Hi,

I need your opinions regarding the quality and price of the aircon.. The price might be a little expensive in Perlis. I just came back from the aircon shop. Went to look for which air con to buy . House is too hot..Weather is around 41 degrees celcius!

I need one aircon for my sitting room which is 15 ft x 27 with direct sunlight. Is 2 HP enough? Usually one or 2 person only in my sitting room. I use the room like 8-9 hours per day.

I heard alot about Mitsubishi and the salesman showed me a normal mitsubishi with 4 air flows 2HP around RM2299 including installation. Then there's another one 2HP mitsubishi 3D with 8 airflows ( meaning it flows to the top, bottom, right, left and everywhere) around RM2699 including installation. The salesman says the 3D one saves energy and self cleaning.

Anyone using this mitsubishi 3D aircon? It is good and saves energy? Is the price too expensive? Should I get the normal mitsubishi at RM2299 or the 3D one?

Or panasonic better?

Thanks in advance smile.gif

2HP should be enough, but depand on how cool the room you want to be.
Since ur usage is 8 hours per day, try to get inverter AC and it will save on ur electric bill.
I am using 1HP, 1.5HP and 2HP Mitsubushi Mr Slim at my home, all working well, cools and silent.  thumbup.gif

From my humble opinion, do this first, calculate the BTU and then you can decide the right power needed for your aircon referring to the room space.

My thought is, if you get a 2hp aircon, if in case after you full blast the aircon, the temperature that you felt is not the one u desired, there's nothing you can do about it but to live with it, but if you get a 2.5hp, if it's too cold, u still can adjust it to low. One of the reasoning i use to buy the 2.5hp Daikin.

Thanks for both of your reply. I checked the link willius gave and my btu is 31,000? So need like 3 hp aircon?
Anyway, I just bought the Mitsubishi 3D aircon 2hp and it cools really fast. I only set it to 26 degrees in the afternoon and by night, I can increase it to 27 degrees. I have to turn it on all day as the northern weather is scorching hot (can get as high as 41 degrees) and my sitting room happened to face the afternoon sun sad.gif .
The salesman says that it saves electricity but I haven't checked my bill consumption yet. Will report end of the month. Hopefully it's not too high. I'm also starting to plant trees for shades.
