    Hi I just bought from them yesteday as they were closing

    we were at a fair at expo and was looking at Mitsubishi HI aircon, the staff offer us a free upgrade to 1/2 inch aluminum pipe cos we were the last customer as everyone is packing up. Just wondering is Aluminum really better than copper?

    The model we took was SRK25ZJ-S

    Free upgrade Alum SWG 17

    Armaflex 1/2 Insulation Class 'O'

    Hi, i was at the Expo last weekend too, held by Audio House.

    The saleperson by the surname of Lau did his salestalk with us.

    I felt that he's good, won't hardsell, and he sounds sincere and don't look like he's gonna cheat us.

    We told him that we've paid deposit for Hitachi air-con at Gaincity and now Creation Air is selling cheaper. So he told us to ask gaincity if we can get the refund or not. We managed to settle with Gaincity and came back to Lau.

    We have decided for Starmex and upon signing up, he saw our address was familiar and he browse through his sales record and said that another customer living in the same block as us, purchase MHI from them.

    So i asked him what is the difference between MHI and Starmex and he told me MHI got many functions than Starmex. but since we had already pen down for Starmex, he would write down MHI as a 2nd option for us and gave us time to consider.

    He even gave us the MHI brochure and jot down the major differences between MHI and Starmex.

    I think he is good, won't ignore you even after they close the deal with you.

    But after reading some bad comments about them here, i hope the installation goes well for us as we've paid $500 deposit.

    Oh, if you're curious, we've got Starmex System 4 Inverter. 1 x 24k btu, 3 x 9000 btu @ $3595. Upgrade to their grey color insulator at $200 and we remained using copper despite he told us aluminium is good. Total cost $3795 and $500 deposit.

    The MHI is the same price but the living room unit is only 22k btu.

    Hi paladin,

    I'm thinking of engaging master chang too. Please advise me on the price, service and review if any.

    Does he ask his customers to do major changes like, hacking walls, change opening of toilets, bedrooms, location of basin and stove and tilt main door?

    Hi paladin,

    I never heard of inauspicious to go into the house empty handed. However, my mother remind me to choose an auspicious dates and times for renovation and move in.

    That's all I know. The rest I leave it to other members to comment.

    Cheers:) Emobebe

    Hi Emobebe,

    Thank you very much for your reply!

    The "inauspicious empty handed" thing was read from http://services.spservices.sg/cs_lifestyle...es_fengshui.htm

    And i do believe the rolling of pineapple as it symbolises Wang Lai... I've read it here... http://www.geomancy.net/consultation/consu...gettingkeys.pdf

    Because everyone got their own methods of opening the new house. Some even advise to burn joss paper or joss sticks. Thus, i don't know who should i really follow. =)

    Hi all,

    I am a new member here and i apologise if this topic has been asked before.

    I will be getting my keys on 1st April 2011. And i intend to visit my new house on that very day after i got the keys.

    Can anyone share with me on what i have to do before entering the new house?

    I've read and heard that:

    1) Its inauspicious to go into the house empty handed

    2) You'll have to find an auspicious time to first time open the door

    3) A few FSM told me that its ok just to go in and take measurements, they are more concerned of the Dong Tu & Move-In time.

    Can anyone share with me on the guided procedures to do before you enter the house?

    Thanks alot!
