Removing Air Con & Ceiling Fan Repair

[rain1407 0]

Good morning everyone! Hi I'm new guy posting my very first question in this forum. Its a bit long but I hope u can bear with me:

I just move into a resale flat 2 years ago with 3 split aircon unit with it's compressor & a brand new ceiling fan (at the time) in the living room. All is ok till about recently when the above mentioned starts to break down on me.

Air Con:

Not cold anymore. Called 2 different aircon specialist & when they took a look at the model (Sharp) they say its a very old model over 8 years ago. Further inspection & they both told me the same thing, the compressor is damage & not worth to repair better install a new one.

Question: In my case my wife & I have decided to have the whole thing removed & install ceiling fans in every room instead. If we removed the whole thing, what about the trunkings & the holes connecting in between the rooms? Anyone know who do I call to remove it yet they will sealed up the hole? I'm not so optimistic about having soemthing in my house yet its no longer working.

Ceiling Fan

A brand called Elmark. 3 fan speed option. But I realsied that the fan is no longer performing to its optimum level. Wind is not strong anymore. Do I called for repair or should I just replaced with a more reliable brand?

Unless you like holes between rooms, it is better to just seal it with proper cementing.

Anyone know who do I call to remove it yet they will sealed up the hole?

To seal the holes any kind of contractor will do, no need hdb license.

But for the removal of air-conditional, better to get Air-Con man because they are license and experience in climbing out the windows and etc.

You may want to try to see whether do they want to do a free job for you and you give them the aircons

Do I called for repair or should I just replaced with a more reliable brand?

Just replace the fans, just like a car, if it is not reliable, no matter how many times you service it, it will still break down.

Yeah Santav, I badly want to repair my ceiling fan too. Getting warmer these days... I consulted a few friends, ome of them told me to just let go my Elmark fan & get a KDK one instead as it is more reliable.

now I'm just wondering who do I call to removed my main problem: my air-con units.
