Air conditioning - Any recommendations please??

[guesswho80]

i tink copper pipe for aircon is only from Totalline.

Sorry what do u mean? I thought there are many brands of copper pipe for aircon. Totalline is one of them. So far I know Daikin is using Totalline, dunno Toshiba is it using Totalline since they have merged with Daikin?

default installation, 3/8 is already enough. unless the trucking is in the wall or false ceiling, than abit thicker wil be ok liao.

Armaflex is gd for insulation. so far for mine, which is k-flex, no problem at all..

Okie i call GainCity enquire they say is GFlex 3/8" insulations, 13mm drainage pipes and guage 23 copper pipes so is this okie for Toshiba Non-inverter aircon? Should I need to upgrade?

By the way which is better? To run the trunking on top or bottom?

yes, it is ok.

to run it top or bottom, the installer wil advise u. so depends on yr decision.

u can choose to upgrade to a better materials. its up to yr decision. mine was brought at fairprice xtra. its a Daikin system 4, non-inverter. it is a default installation anyway. no problem.

How long have u bought? I feel puzzled why a lot of ppl go upgrade if the default installation is gd enough liao?

 

[cannotliao]

min i will go for G23 copper piping, 3/8 insulation, 16mm drainage pipe.
max G22, 1/2 insulation and 16mm drainage pipe.
i prefer armaflex insulation.

upgrading is kaisu, play safe since the installation going to use for many years so why not use better material.

using it for 2mths..

as agree to "cannotliao", some ppl kiasu. but than if regular maintenance is there, i dont c y there is a need to upgrade. n also if u hav some spare bucks, y not upgrade to a better material if u can..

I got budget constraint so therefore considering whether to upgrade it. If the default installation is good enough, then i wont be upgrading. By the way which one is better? Foam or rubber insulation?

 

[chunlianghere]

insulation got foam and rubber meh? but foam seems better to me.

Dun know the gaincity tell me got GFlex which is foam and AccoFlex which is rubber. Very confused now which one is better?

 

[terumo]

Use Accoflex, more commonly used. Armaflex is also quite gd.

I have my neighbour complaining my room creating water condensation on their side of the wall each time i use my aircon. I'm using starmex inverter system 4. I've already set it to 24 degree and the blower faced downward. They called HDB and complained to me.

It's the whole wall and the wall is opposite my indoor unit. That wall doesn't even have anything attached to it..nothing related to aircon attached to that side...I am baffled how thick is the wall since it could create so much condensation on the other side.
