mumulovenest 0 Report post Posted May 25, 2009 bought a system 3 mitsubishi heavy industries aircon from Gain City and the aircon was installed last Tuesday... The aircon guys came at 10am and finish only at 8+pm! didnt know that it will take so long to install e aircon.. we upgrade e insulator to 1/2" n end up having a thicker piping bracket... super ugly!! Master Bedroom e piping run from e aircon ledge across my potential pole system wardrobe.. e clothes should b able to cover this unsightliness.. so nvm... up it goes n link to my aircon.. very ugly leh......... Common Room 1 Very short only.. Still acceptable.. Common Room 2 this one is e most unacceptable! so long n it even have a mini staircase! *faint* now having a headache to think of ways to cover the ugly pipings..... anyone have any ways to cover the ugly pipes? Help is very much appreciated!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Angel81 1 Report post Posted May 25, 2009 The trunking does seem rather obvious now. Think after painting, it'll be less obvious. Will there be any carpentry at Room 2 to hide the trunkings? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mumulovenest 0 Report post Posted May 25, 2009 Aircon piping continues... ... The pipes run from the master bedroom into this hollow false beam, into the common room 2.. Another pipe runs from my common toilet, across the main beam before reaching common room 1.. my ID created a box up for us to hide the piping.. dunno got charge $$ one ma.. however, as the box up is too huge, it exceeded my common room 1 door.. View from living room.. the extra length of e 2nd beam is not too obvious when seen from far.. Boxed up beam Extra box up view from room Extra, but better than a long pipe running in the middle.. I wonder how my neighbours run their piping.. Is it as ugly, better or worse than ours? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will there be any carpentry at Room 2 to hide the trunkings? no carpentry at the moment yet.. running out of cash liao.. haha.. was thinking of building a shelf up there.. but then it seems too high for us to reach.. a bit not practical like that.. also scare that if we build carpentry there, will we b drawing attention to e piping as well? really hope the painting would be able to merge well with the pipes.. btw, painting starts today! all paint are white! so boring~~ haha..

If shelf is too high to reach, how about a suspended cabinet? Ikea has those suspended cabinets that you can fix just under the aircon trunking. Think should be quite cheap, and will be able to hide the trunking bah. Haha, how come don't paint some walls a different colour? Sort of like a feature wall?

GC staff told us that actually mhi had been doing commercial biz for quite some time n only in recent years then enter into the residential biz.. the feature for heavy industries is quite good.. they have this 24 hrs ion thingy, self clean operation and some others i forget liao... start up for the aircon is relatively fast.. n e noise level is almost unnoticeable too.. most importantly, it is a few hundred lesser than starmex! i bought at $2498 for a system 3 inverter unit.. comes with 5 years warranty.. i add on $180 to upgrade to 1/2" armaflex and from copper 23 to copper 22, 16mm drainage.. but hor, on the print of the armaflex it shows 3/8" instead of 1/2".. explanation from technician is that armaflex uses a different measurement but it is still equal to 1/2".. dunno true a not.. Below are some links on MHI.. mayb u can take into consideration also? http://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=10567 Online brochure of MHI http://www.mhi.co.jp/aircon/catalogue/inde...ntentsNumber=91 ya lo.. was thinking little can b done to cover my ugly piping liao.. u intend to install how many system in your home? got to think of ways to run liao also.. dun be like me~~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
