Has anyone used Daikin A/C here? Any feedbacks on that?

[horsepower]

Daiken are considered to be the best a/c you can buy, but they are very expensive. I enquired about 1.8 ton split and it was costing between 60-65k. General comes next in prices and after that Hitachi. These 3 brands are the best available in the market.

[namit]

Curious to know if its possible (mean such arrangement is possible) to have a single 1.5 ton split a/c with 2 splits - each in 2 different rooms adjacent to each other ??

I need cooling in both these rooms but very rarely in both simultaneously.

I think this should be a nice brain stormer .........

Jokes apart seriously need to know as i wanna go in for such an arrangement if possible.

Also wats your opinion on Llyods branded a/cs ?

Thanks !!

namit, if you seriously look around in the market, yes that is available probably in 2 tonnes & above. You culod have one outdoor unit & 2 indoor units, please check with your local dealer.

Namit,

Do not know if possible in 1.5 ton (but you can check with Hitachi) but in 2 ton you have this option with Hitachi (I think the model is called "Atom") where there are two split units which can be placed in two different rooms (but cannot be used simultaneously) . Perfect solution to your needs.

Dunno much about Lloyds though..Thought Lloyds (TSB) was a bank !

Hey Aditya,
Just one suggestion. Do consider at a slight upsize on the A/c capacity. Unless it's a really small room, don't go for the 0.75 tonner. Basically if you go for a slightly bigger a/c, it will cool your room faster and switch off the compressor, whereas the li'l guy will be chugging away all day/night long. It'll also make a huge difference in summers, so irrespective of the brand you buy, do try and go 1 size up. Cheers.

Thanks Ash and Esteem Lover !!

I know that its possible with 2 Ton but the voltage supply in Delhi is not enough to run a 2 tonner a/c ... i have heard this from 2 persons known to me who have a 2 ton a/c but unable to run it bcoz of low voltage from electricity board.

Hence keen for this arrangement only on 1.5 ton a/c unit.

I will check in the mkt sometime on Sunday but if anyone is aware please let me know.

Thanks again !!

Namit,

You go for a good, heavy duty stabalizer to tide over the voltgae fluctuations..This issue will be there with 1.5 ton as well. But if you are able to get 1.5 ton with 2 split units for requirements, great!

LG has a dual indoor unit model. There is an old carrier in my office which has 2 compressors in the Outdoor unit & 2 indoor units.

TIA

Hi Doc !

I paid Rs.17K only for the a/c. Because of the steel body & the fact that the compressor was kind of shielded I could not see very properly the compressor make (think Hitachi or Mitsubishi, not sure though)..Since it was the bedroom a/c & the fact that the installers arrived late in the night,I did not pay much attention. .Nothing written on the box though..

[extreme_torque]

Guys, is there anyway of knowing if compressor is working fine or not. I have been running the AC in my room at low voltage (180-200) in the night, for sleeping without AC is impossible in delhi now a days and I feel my AC takes more time to cool than it took before, even when the voltage is normal.

[gd1418]

This is the first time I've heard something like this. I've 2 two tonners in my office and they have a transformer of 4.5 KW each. They run purrrrfectly well and cool amazingly though chomp electricity like nobody's business. Both are WWs and nearly 11 years old.

Wow .. that is cheap for a 1.5 ! I was checking out LGs and Samsungs. 1ton is around 20K , 1.5 around 23/24.

Are Voltas prices normally lower by that much ?
