Wondering if it is convenient to take a cab/bus to and from Jalan Titiwangsa? I am looking to go and buy lights/fans but my family doesn't own a car. Don't want to trouble my friends, if possible. I am just looking to buy 3 fans and maybe 20-30 lights there so I think my group of 4 should be able to carry by hand.

Hi there, Can I get the contact as well? I am starting my reno and need to save on my budget too. The cost savings seems very high compared to the risk

Sorry Jerome, Need to add the following fridge Samsung RL4013UBASL Samsung RF62TBPN (could I know the allowance needed as it is quite close to my max of 850 width including allowance) Fisher & Payel E402BRX2 Fisher & Payel E411TRE2

Hi Jerome, Thanks last year for the appliances for my Dad's new flat. Now it's my flat's turn. Can you give me a quote for: Fridge 1) Hitachi R-ZG481EMS 2) Hitch R-Z481EMSX 3) Any other fridge that is 4 ticks, 375L+ net capacity, uses R600A and less than 750 in width Washing Machine 1) Panasonic NA-148VG3 2) LG WD1070QDP 3) Bosch WAE16060SG 4) Samsung WF702 Hob & Hood 1) Rinnai RB-713N 2) Rinnai RB-3CG 3) Rinnai RH-90ER 4) Fujioh FX-900 Do you sell TVs as well?

RZ481EMSX has a top freezer and uses the R-134A coolant, which is not HFC free (will contribute to greenhouse gas but not ozone. Ozone is CFC). BW465XSSG has a bottom freezen and uses the new R-600A coolant, which is HFC free. Note that the bottom freezer is drawer type, so could be kind of hard for older people/pregnant ladies to use and loading can be an issue since you have to stack items.

Hi All, I am still undecided between these two brands. Any one have any suggestions? I am getting 1 for my living room. Either 1) Amasco 56" Refresh 2) Crestar AirVac 54" Amasco has a bigger spread, anti dust and negative ion (don't know how true). Comes from a reputable seller (lightings.com.sg) and is $20 cheaper than the cheapest Crestar I sourced. Design is slightly nicer. Crestar has a slightly stronger wind, stronger brand (true?) but the light kits are expensive (making the entire fan more expensive) and the cheapest shop I find is www.facebook.com/lightfanstore. Has anyone bought from there? KDK is out for me as I need a light kit. Don't have L-Box in the living room. 56" can fit in without adjustments. Any ideas? Many thanks!

Hi Folks, Just checking if anyone knows how is the wind speed of Fanco compared to KDK? I need a fan with lights so KDK is out for me... Also, how does ceiling lights compared to standing fans ah? Thanks! Uris

Sorry folks, my contractor told me for new HDB, the heater installation piping need to run though the living room to the bathroom. Can advise what kind of piping is required for the gas heater? I know need to connect the pipe from the gas stove over there. How are the pipes connected to the bathrooms?

Hi All, Relatives wanted to give us a single split non-inverter for our living room but we do not plan to use it much, if at all. Can I fix it and off the compressor totally, only switching it on say 6-8 hours before I want to use it? Don't want a white elephant compressor sucking electricity every day even though I use it like less than 5 times a year. Thanks, Uris

Hi Collins, What about LED lights for Fanco fans? LED fluorescent will be mounted at the wall i presume? Thanks, Uris

Hi Zero, Any idea what is good for a small kitchen? Was looking at Fujioh FX900 and Rinnai RB-2CG. But Rinnai RB-2CG is way too expensive in my previous quotes (800+). I need a hob that is < 800 in width. Fujioh hood is quite long (590) and thick (190) as well. Any other good inner flame models? Is Ellane any good? Was recommended EH-2988 which is shorter (500) and slimmer (100). But not sure how their hobs are though (confirm no inner flame though). Thanks!

Wah so much info. Ya lor I now totally don't use but also worried that next time have it become a habit... Based on http://els.nea.gov.sg/mels/aircon.asp, on 4 hrs usage a day average, a sys-3 non-inverter (3 ticks) is around $964 a year (based on $0.40/kwh which is very likely in next 5 yrs). A sys-3 inverter is around $1244 (more!!!) but half load is only $432. (the inverter 1 has higher cooling capacity means can on 3 units no problem) Say 1/4 of the time full load and 3/4 of the time half load hor, means average is $635. Save $300 a year which mean 3-4 years break even liao? So even if I use only average 2 hrs a day (meaning 1-2 times a week on air-con), 6 years break even? Hmmm. Also read that condenser for non-inverter is split into 2 niah. So any 1 of the 3 bedrooms (or 2 if using sys-3) turns on means full power for that condenser liao. When inverter, if only on 1 means it draw lesser than what is stated right??? Scared the non-inverter compressor gone case faster as well. Then if I do sys-3 + single split means must consider standby power of 2 condensers. Does higher cooling power condenser use more standby power? Also just to confirm, if the condenser is rated 20k BTU, if have 3 units 9k each. Doesn't mean each unit hard cap 6666 BTU right? If I on 1, can get 9k. 2 is 9k each but 3 will drop to 6666 each? Maybe will give up living room and do a sys-3 instead....

Sorry what you mean LED bulbs in light fixtures? I see all those LED bulbs lumens like very little leh hmmm. Wonder got any show room for me to see anot. But not those with false ceiling requirement 1 cos I not planning to have false ceiling leh

HI All, Will like to check if it is possible to achieve LED lightning without any false ceiling (e.g. maybe a light fixture with light bulbs or any LED circular fluorescent replacement?)? Also very blur as to calculate how many lumens a room need and etc. My current house, just use 40w circular fluorescent light and my rooms, 32w. Any help or guide will be appreciated! Thanks!

Hi All, Am planning for a new flat and I am looking at a system 4. I am wondering how a system 4 works cos my contractor states that a system 4 will have lesser power even though only 1 unit is turned on. Our household is unlikely to be a high user of air-con. In fact, we have no air-con in our current flat so air-con is more like a just in case. I was thinking, usually, if the living room air-con is turned on, the rest of the rooms are unlikely to be on (or at most 1 room). Let's take for example, the Mitsubishi MXY-4A28VA condenser which can serve 30k+ BTU/hr with 3x MSY-GE10VA (8k BTU/hr) and 1x MSY-GE13VA (12k BTU/hr). Obviously, if all 4 are on, it's 36k BTU/hr which means all will be lowered. But what if 1 bedroom and 1 living room is on? That is only 20k BTU/hr. Does it mean both units will get their full potential or is there a hard cap on each unit due to the fact that the condenser needs to be split for 4 units? Don't really wish to spend on a system 3 + split single as we do not use the air-conditioner often, especially the living room. What are your opinions? Thanks!
