Aircon Quotes (From Aron)

[vicenzo70 0]

i'm keen. count me in. anyone else keen?

Please count me in for bulk purchase.

Ive decided on a Mitsubishi System 4 Inverter. Atcually, even if your compressor is made in Japan or Thailand, there's a 5 year warranty against defective parts. My only worry is the workmanship. (22K + 12k +10k + 10k BTU)

The shops Ive inquired (brackets inclusive) -

Allbest - $3,749 (X 2 installation + commissioning)

Kun Seng - $3,750 (X 2 installation)

Tai Wah - $3,693 (didnt ask)

Hong Tar - $4,070 (GOSH!!!)

My ideal aircon installation would be the week of 24-28 Mar if possible. My reno is in progress now.

Can someone collate the names of those keen on bulk purchase?

Cheers.

Vince

I already emailed a online company that provide service of procuring items in bulk for ppl. Heard they can source for the best deal and pass the savings to their customers. Once i got a reply, i will keep u guys posted.

If comes back with saving $10 ~ $20, then no point lar we get our own lor.

Guys I'm also interested in the group purchase. Intend to get the following :-

Mit SM inverter system 3 1X9000, 1x13000, 1x18000

Mi non inverter system 2 2x10000

As mine is a 20year old HDB, i do not have the aircon ledge, meaning the compressor will be on the bracket outside the MDR window. As i have no balcony, i cant have two compressors even if i wan to aircon the whole house.

For panasonic, the compressor is pretty tall, hence, i will not be able to change to swing window in the MBR in future. Hence, i choose the Mit. Hubby very impress with the easy clean function of Mit, really very easy. Cant do the same for Pan. And the Mit compressor is vey very quiet too.

Hence, we choose Mit. As it is not assembled in Japan, spare parts should be no issue.

I called to check Allbest, but they quote $1880 for R22A model.

You may want to confirm if they using the new R410A refrigerant since is a StarMex model. If really R410A, then your deal is super good as it comes with class 0 and 1/2' insulation. Can PM me your salesman.

Hi, GOOD morning, i tot i am the only crazy person reading this forum at such early hours on weekend.

Mine is R22 model. Sales man, Mr Teo.N.W (off on Tuesday) says the R410 to top up the gas is expensive. As ours is super low usage for only 2 persons, he recommend R22. I did honest tell him that if R410 is better, i dun mind pay more. Salesman uncle says no need waste money. haha.

Good or not good? i kena con by $8 ??? sob sob

To rectify my computation

It is 2038 (1888 + 150) + 5% for credit card instalment = 2139.90.

vowsh : did the sales man quote you using the class 0 tingy? paiseh lah, din join u all for bulk. Tired to researching, looking and shopping. The salesman seems honest thou. uncle uncle kind. He also says if i wan to aircon whole house, recommend Daikin, the aircon for living room is a longer and bigger one. Only $2600++. But also ask us dun waste money cos only 2 of us.

I called same the sale leh. He quoted me $1880 for R22 refrigerant, 3/8 insulation as no point to use 1/2". Not use if he use Armaflex instead of thermaflex( a better quality type). See if u can get him to use thermaflex without paying extra.

Anyway, no worry as your price for R22 is the cheapest among all. Mr Teo got a point too to use R22 as the gas is 2 times lower than R410A.

How come no one here buy from Natural Cool?

I thought Natural Cool is the largest and is a listed company, so their service and prices should be competitive?

they are sub-contracting alot of commercial residential projects. most of the workers are their own. as for ad-hoc per unit basis, you have to check out their prices by asking for quotation.

im using toshiba inverter, a system 3 + system 2 and my total cost + installation is $5k. my hse fully air-con. yup, the compressor is from Japan. ultra quiet at night when you on it
