necrosis 0 Report post Posted November 2, 2009 I am getting from Natural Cool as I trust their installation. How long an aircon lasts depends on the installation. My usage is probably less than half of yours so hopefully it'll last for at least 10 yrs. What food do you like there? I like cafe terrace 211 and mykii i love the sting ray at holland v coffee shop or kopitiam...the non-a/c one. watch soccer and eat sting ray....shiok man Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gantan88 0 Report post Posted November 2, 2009 Hi, I got from Allbest a Mit Inv 3 yrs ago. Usage daily from 11 to 8 @ MBR. Corridor bedroom once/twice weekly. Weekends evening maybe on living room for few hours. I nvr on all units at one time. At most 2, having the inv is as good as nil Sometimes very windy & fan is good enough Holland V is great esp if u're a foodie. I'm still learning to control Read that inverter aircon is only effective for really high usage of aircon. Not worth paying more for inverter if usage is low. SO this is true?

SO this is true? if you use multiple units at the same time and for many hours in a day, inverter is the way to go. of cos if budget permits, inverter is the way to go. i understand it's quieter also.

ossify 1 Report post Posted November 3, 2009 i love the sting ray at holland v coffee shop or kopitiam...the non-a/c one. watch soccer and eat sting ray....shiok man hmm i have never ate there before. i assumed they are tourist traps how much do you pay for sting ray there? Read that inverter aircon is only effective for really high usage of aircon. Not worth paying more for inverter if usage is low. SO this is true? yes it's true. if you're an average user (8hr per day at night for 2 rooms every night), it'll be better to get non-inverter. if you use multiple units at the same time and for many hours in a day, inverter is the way to go. of cos if budget permits, inverter is the way to go. i understand it's quieter also. the quality of installation affects the noise generated. inverter is quieter, but non-inverters can be almost as quiet too if properly installed. (most people can't detect the differences in decibels). don't get inverter unless you switch on your aircon daily to cool your whole house. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it's a 1-pc WC I am intending to shift the orientation of the WC so yes I must remind myself to measure the exact dimensions of the toilet and the drainage pipe. Thanks for the headsup!

ossify 1 Report post Posted November 3, 2009 We can change the orientation of the WC? My contractor told me cannot be done because of dunno what reason i forgot... It's just a hole. If you rotate left or right, it's still the same hole But the hole cannot be shifted so the WC cannot be shift too. I know some people tried to offset the WC but complaint that there is problem with flushing when you offset. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
