Got mine from GC too but Causeway Pt...Mit inverter sysetm 3...oso 5 yrs warranty @ S$3.2k..

The services i got from Mr Heng, the saleperson from Causeway Pt GC was great n i must also say..i not the easiest customer to deal with...

I just installed the trunkings for my Mit Elec Sys 4. I must say it is really not easy, especially when it comes to thicker pipes and insulators. Lucky for me, I have an "auditor".

I actually engaged another aircon contractor to be my 3rd-party adviser. Personally I feel the big companies can provide better pricing but their installers may tend to have worker-mentality. This may mean quality of work is just so-so. Too bad I could not engage my own contractor as he could not get me a good price. At least no regrets, having him around with more than 10 years experience to help oversee.

Things that I encountered:

- they may use remaining copper pipes left over from other installation. These will be hard to tell which grade they belong to.

- the junior installer is quite bo-chap and does not get along well with his senior

- i feel even the senior installer is still not good enough when comes to sys 4

- the running of trunking to me is the most important and I managed to get good advices

- 2 trips for installation are definitely better than 1. Mine took whole day just to run the trunking.

In short, it may be a good idea to spend some $$ to get a 3rd party.

Hi I'm have just got keys to a new hdb flat in bedok and is contemplating installing System 4 (Mitsubishi Electric or Toshiba). Our window at the air con ledge is around 700mm in height.

Toshiba's condenser (RAS-4M26SACV) is

Dimension : 795(H) x 900(W) x 320(H) mm

ME's condenser MXY-4A28VA is

Dimension : 840 (W) x 330(D) x 710 (H)

To me it seems barely possible to push out ME's condenser thru the window (tilting maybe can) but impossible to get toshiba's out without tearing down the window frame & put it back. Are there extra charges to do this? I definitely cannot reach air con ledge via service yard.

just bought toshiba system 3 @ $1750 comes with installation! is a 3 ticks... he say toshiba got 2 models of similar design... mine is the slightly older design (by 3 mths only)... was told tat everything is the same but mine has stronger wind

any recommendation of old system 2 being trade in and install a new system 2?

What is the cost like?

The old ones are still usable, but the trunking was ran unsightly due to built-in cabinets of 30 years which I'm tearing them down.

Anyone using the new range of inverter aircons from Sanyo in their HDB and do you know where it's made?

Is it a normal practice for the aircon contractor to charge additional for dismantle/dispose your existing air-con before installing new one? Coz I'm not re-using the pipe and the trunking route also different.

The additional charge is $150. Reasonable?

By the way, anyone know what is the price range for Mitsubishin Sys 3 Non-Inverter now?

I got the quote for 2.1k, but the contractor can't even answer me what type of insulator they used, gosh.........

Will be going down to GC soon.

i got my mitsubishi easyclean sys-3(non-invertor,r-22) at GC,imm with extended warranty,upgrade to the best piping or whatever they having.however gotta pay them extra $50 to come in 2 trips. total dmg = $2310nett. hope of the best ba, i went to them for the installation skills,extended warranty and after-sales service. i am pretty sure can get cheaper elsewhere ba.

go to expo if you can,they have a fair there. confirm can get cheaper.
