2 hp blower is already quite large and sufficient for my landed living room, so I think it should fit yours unless you stay in a big bungalow with loft ceiling.  If you need higher hp, I suggest you mount another 1 hp or 2 hp at another location for more even distribution of cold air.  Else it will be freezing cold at the 3 hp blower and warm at other dead corners.
*
Yup.. its good to have a few small aiconds rather than 1 big aircond.

hi guys, appreciate your assist, how to know max capacity of air cond your house electricity load can support before tripping.. ? my house is single phase and my main switch has 63amp fuse... im planning to install 3nos of 1hp for each room upstairs and 2hp at living room.. is this ok? thanks
*
Sure can. Arrange 1 mccb for each ac if possible for better protection.

Last time acson OEM from York, both the remote can be use. My brother room acson, I can use my York remote to control. York famous for fast cooling, but blower are louder.

Yeah. York n acson r same. Casing only different. If u have york, u can use acson spare parts or vice versa.

Not cheated you, I'm the user for what I usage everyday.

Quitter is one thing off what you paid as worth for money and enjoy it every night.

Current I own hitachi DC inverter for Others Room indoor air flaw noise really worst than Mitsubishi Electric StarMex inverter for my Living hall and masterbed room.

Hitachi Noisy at low speed still can near the air flaw noise.
Starmex got quiet mode at 19db only. For low speed at 21db that's can't hear any noise at all.
*
Im not saying u cheated me. But from d way u explain just now, i can say that mitsubishi is quiter than hitachi, not non inverter is noisier than inverter.

Anyway, have u tried to select silence mode on ur hitachi?

N have u tried daikin?

This one ahh... You got screw driver and open up the casing and clean out all the water drain for jelly thing.

Also use and same size of strew slot in on indoor drain pipe and use mouth to blow with air mixed with water too.

Can be blow out as many dust & jelly until the water running smoothly with not stuck at all, then put back the while casing with screw back that so..

Yorla. Where did u buy the filter bro? I also try to find one, but couldnt find it.

Even silent mode also can't flight. The air flaw noise can be killing my ear.. Lol
What ever installed already just face to usage until spoiled and change into Mitsubishi electric starmex

Ha3. U r die hard fans of mitsu bro. Im happy that u found your ultimate a/c. Just stick on what u like d most bro.. if u dont like d hitachi, just take it out n sell it. The longer u wait the cheaper it will get. Then use that money to cover part of ur mitsu a/c cost.

No worried,, that claim from my Aircond contractor.
Cause due to vibrator until the sliding door got sound..lol
Cause I'm lucky to chosen inverter type.

Good brand like mitsu, non inverter also no problem la bro. Inverter also has its own prob. U know or not bro?

I knew that, cause my 1st aircond is non inverter mah, panasonic, hitachi & York from Singapore of split unit, in 1 outdoor inside got 2 compressor.
*
Wah.. so many brand that u used. Almost all already excpt daikin. Why r?

I do agree they way non inverter ac works MIGHT make it prone to vibration. But with good dampner the prob can be solved, not much an issue. Even inverter type ac also can vibrate like hell if the dampner goes kaput.

Daikin ah.. nothing special.. don't easy clean model..

even buy york inverter also enjoy the same cooling..  rclxms.gif

from what i knew on daikin R22 pre model is using AC inverter..

that's why i go with hitachi & Mitsubishi electric.. even my friend in singapore is aircond contractor he also said Daikin ah... you want the brand and not want do more repair works.  hmm.gif
*
Nothing special? Its d only inverter using r22, d only n one of its kind swing compressor n d quiete level is quite superior.

Daikin is not easy to repair? Who says this bro?

Hmm I Guess daikin already running R410a model like Singapore now.. Baru energy saving smile.gif

R22 really older already.

How bout price for daikin R410a vs R22 in 1hp now?
For last time I asked is more expansive then Starmex inverter
*
Did u know why now most all d manufacturer switch r22 to r410a? Its not performance issue, its due to environment. R22 is ozone depleting agent but r410a is not. However r410a contribute to global warming. Therefore both are actually equally energy saving, but i think daikin are more power saving due to its revolutionary swing compressor which minimize pressure loss, thus making it more efficient.

R410a also not new, its also old.

Last time, daikin 1hp cost me rm1300 inclusive installation. N i do agree its outdoor unit is very quite. If u select silence + night mode, u cant hear it sound at all, unless u put ur ear very2 close to the unit lah..

Either the air-cond is not effficient (blower clogged with fur hence reduction in airflow, quite normal happen), or something wrong with the air-cond or room itself not properly closed/insulated etc reason.

For non-inverter
Temperature setting on the remote control, is for the compressor to shut down when achieved the temp.
There is a thermo-sensor to detect the air-temperature inside/around the blower.

So whether you set 22 or 25, it makes little different. If the temperature is not reached 22/25, the compressor will be running 100%, be it you set it 18,20, or 26, if the temperature of room air is not reaching there.
Compressor will only stop running when the thermo-sensor sense the temperature of the air drop to the set temperature in the remote control.

While for inverter.
It is still the same working mechanism, except when the compressor can be running at 50%, if the air temperature start dropping to near the set temperature.

Eg. when room air is 30, while setting of remote is 25, the compressor running at full speed to cool the air.
But when it senses the room temperature become 27 already, then compressor slowdown to 50%,
when it senses become 26, the compressor slowdown to 20%.

This is how inverter can save electricity.
*
Sure r inverter can run at 20%? I thought only 0, 50 n 100%.

many years back, i was using daikin inverter 1.5hp with R22 gas in my master room (15ft x 15ft). during the months with hot weather, it took quite some time (~1gr) to cool down the room as part of a side of a wall is facing afternoon sun.

now, i'm thinking of fixing mitsubishi elec starmex 1.5hp which uses the new gas. will it perform similarly as daikin inverter, ie not cooling enough? or is it starmex has higher cooling capacity/btu due to newer gas? or i need a starmex 2hp?

PS: cant really find the btu for starmex 1.5hp in the web site to compare against daikin inverter 1.5hp.
*
1hr?.. have u chosen d powerful mode?.. this mode gives rapid cooling.. or maybe you need a bigger ac. 2 hp perhaps? Because u have a wall that constantly heating ur house.

Will 2hp will be over kill for 15x15 ft bedroom?

For normal room maybe. But for a room that have a wall directly facing afternoon sun, maybe not.

wanna get more cooling and saving more, just go with Starmex inverter guaranty you set in 25-26 degree good enough, even place outside of window still quiet in working.. easy clean and bigger condenser can keep more faster cooling time..

Wah siap guarantee. If still not enough cooling power, will u refund the money?
