Air Con Cheat

Recommended Posts

Please be carefull when installing new Air con.

I was cheated 3 years ago when this company install low quality alluminium piping (instead of copper) for my home

Now I have to fork out $800 for a complete change of piping for the 2 units of aircon due to pipe leak.

the contractor that do chemical overhaul shows me how brittle the pipings are n dare not touch them, I tried to unscrew the pipe joint n the whole head just fell off!

Call up the original installer and he still want to bull **** that alluminium is better than copper but just cheaper. Now waiting for my leave period to go and claim thru small claim tribunal n CASE.

PM me for company name as not to get conned by this company.

Can name the contractor/ company here? I see other posts giving bad feedback about some retailers, should be ok right? That's what this forum is all about right, sharing the good and bad experiences.

I had exactly the same experience as you. The company I bought from was B*** T***. Besides cheating me with an inferior pipe, the salesperson also sold me the incorrect aircon. I told the salesperson I wanted to get Mitsubishi Electric aircon (advertised by Jack Neo) but was sold the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries aircon when I didn't know there are 2 type of Mitsubishi aircons in the market.

For the pipe leak I have been a sucker for the past 4 years as I keep getting people to come and top up gas until one day it was discovered the pipe is actually leaking and not the correct type to support inverter aircon gas and need to spend $1K to change the whole flat piping.
