Fire Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I need to buy 1 unit for the master bedroom and 1 for the home office. Which brands are good for Inverter Air Conditioning? (Inverter and not normal Air Conditioning) Does any one have experience with LG, Panasonic, Daikin and Mitsubishi Electric with Inverter ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you bother to find out about Mitsu inverters they also heat the room. In fact inverter airconditioners are one of the most cost efective ways of doing this.

You must be from Notunderstandjokeland,by the way I always thought that in Thailand the heating element was emoved from the aircons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelerEastWest Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 We bought half a dozen carrier inverters of different sizes two years ago with 7 year warranties - they are all working smoothly and our energy bill is less than half what is used to be before we switched to new inverters AC.

aussiebebe Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Just my two cents .... find a reputable, local shop near you and ask for their recommendation. In my experience, this strategy helps because those guys will be the ones to come and clean/service/repair the units in the future. On a broader note, I wish air con units were somehow better designed to facilitate cleaning, all indoor units all need to be unscrewed and yanked apart every six months before polythene is taped over. It'd be great if the units had a back plate onto which a 'box' could be attached to form a water-tight seal. This would catch the over-spray and could incorporate a drainage plug.

You must be from Notunderstandjokeland,by the way I always thought that in Thailand the heating element was emoved from the aircons. -since many years aircons do not have heating elements, -heating is done by reversing the cooling cycle (inside unit heating, outside unit cooling), -not every aircon is equipped with that function and the function is not limited to inverter units, -the price of the so-called "heat-pump" unit is ~20% higher, -reason for the higher price is that both inside and outside unit heat-exchangers are built for both cooling and heating function triggered by a rather expensive 4-way solenoid valve. p.s. i have never seen a heat-pump version for sale in Thailand but they might be available up north where the nights can get really cool.

cattoc Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 we use two York inverters - a 4 and 5 ton unit for our restuarant / bar. They use less power than the small conventional units - and do an amazing job when the place is full or you want it on super cool when they first crank up.. Great energy savers and they dont seem to work hard. but have not seen many good designs that allow easy cleaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wrong to think that the heating was done by a heating element.However my point was that I'm from the opinion that they aren't sold in Thailand since nobody would want to waste that money in a climate where they aren't needed.
