vin13 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2008 Cool, it would be great to get feedback from you. Cos we having this dilemma of whether to airconditioning the living room or not.. cos ID say to effectively cool this layout, probably need a 3 + 2.. which will leave a big hole in my wallet.. Woo..3 + 2... that is a hefty sum of money... really must do more research le.. My carpentry works are just done up today.. rest of the wk, probably be doing some touching up etc.. once everything cleaned up... if you want, u can drop by next week to try our aircon. If you notice, we dun even have a door at the kitchen to stop the cool air from escaping.. we dun intend to get it really cold.. just cool enough for hot days..

Allbest offers one of the lowest prices in the market, we have 1 friend who is also in this business but they asked us to go to them coz they unable to go as low as theirs... anyway, we also took a risk as there were quite a no. of negative comments about Allbest in the forum.. We were quoted $3,550.00 for the sys 4 inverter.. the rest is the pipping upgrade.. Like yr dining lights, how much huh? I saw in yr signature that u brought the aircon from All Best, how's the services/installation? Can share? No major hiccups.. only once during the first appt to fix up the pipping.. the technicians tried to smoke their way thru.. told us cannot run our piping this way or another.. must follow their way etc.. hai.., i understand where they r goin at... they want to do the easiest and fastest way out mah.. but we have to suffer leh.. the rooms will look so ugly and we have to see everyday de... luckily, we got do our homework and remain firm.. they no choice..also have to surrender.. the 2nd time they come up to fix up the fan coil unit and compressor was a breeze.. fast and they help to patch up some bits of the wall broken off earlier too.. hi, can u post the pic of e WIW lights when u turn on? where u bought it n wats e price like?

The fridge and washer will be here tomorrow, thereafter will arrange the furniture to come in bit by bit... We are targeting somewhere in mid dec… before X’mas… so i guess we are slightly ahead of schedule now.... then the more tedious part will be setting up the fishtank..… have to make sure the fishies like their new house before we can move in… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
