Air conditioning - Any recommendations please??

So am i right to say some compressor units can set the current limit and if ever my block is being upgraded with higher electrical loading i can increase the limit?

Won't be trip lah, for your power point can be over load at 15A if maximum full load.

Just refer to the standard normal input watts was 2180w = 9.75A from the factory setting, also @ 7.5kw cooling capacity = 25,600 BTU they have minimum to maximum can be varies wattage from the compressor.

That meant in our unit has been lock at 8.5A = 1900w also maximum for tuns on 3 units FCU or maximum load, even you adjusted the lower temperature degree else.

Yes you can able to do that, just check with the Aircon man or HDB website for required

Hi all,

How can you tell if the compressor have not been current limited from the cabling / wiring setup?


Thanks & Regards,

Current limit is set by singapore side.
Cause due to hdb only allow for 8.5A only.

Unlike you ask the Aircon man turn on for you.
Otherwise there is only at input watt 1900w & 8.5A only.

If I'm installing 2 outdoor unit do I need to apply for permit? Or my installer will apply for me?

Anyway is 2 ourdoor unit allowed in the first place?

BTO 5 room flat?

If BTO 5 room flat should be ok for 2 condenser at outdoor
If BTO 4 room flat should check with HDB officer or refer their website.

Once got wiring issue or cause fire you will be a case on 4 room BTO flat.

Hi all,

My installation has already completed thus was wondering if anyone can show with pics or describe what is required to turn on the no limit cap on the Mit SM compressor?

I might try to ask my electrical wiring guy to help change if I know what's needed to.


Thanks & Regards,

Jeremy

just a update la

friend really went ahead install the sys1 inverter single. final cost of the unit itself is really under 480. installation was 200ish. saw all the original paperwork, genuine stuff covered by agent full wty, brand new box. if it is in anyway refurb or used, then i got to take my hat off whoever did the job, it has to be the best conjob i ever seen. the air con runs fine, cools down pretty fast, absolutely silent, can hear paperclip drop on floor type. looks like market is moving AWAY from those big 000s to the low 00s..now i am itchy backside thinking if i should get the same thing in my storeroom, then next time go in do things no need so stuffy

(oh btw, if full units are now this cheap and this good, wonder who would bother spend so much cleaning this washing that..just use and dump and rebuy every few years la! )

The large one 3x5m should go for 1.5hp = 12k at least otherwise will take some time to cooling down the room.

I though Panasonic price are same with Starmex right
If have better way just go for Starmex you will realise it is more higher quality than Pana at all.

Hi thx for the quick reply,as i'm moving out in 2 yr times so would like to go with something good but not to expensive air con,as starmex i check was 2 hundreds more then panasonic.As currently i had a very old and spoilt system 4 which need to be removed,so this would be a good time for me to buy a new set and dispose the old one.Later in the year might do some reno to my flat so hopefully can add value to my flat when selling

another option was Fujitsu System 3 Inverter Air-Con AOAG24LAT3/ASAG09LJx3 (with Installation) which is another 2 hundreds cheaper,is this a good choice...sorry very blur about this stuff

Body Type High COP Design
Cooling Capacity (Outdoor Unit) 29,002 Btu
Eco-friendly Certification(s) 2 Ticks
Eco-friendly Feature(s) I-PAM High Efficiency Inverter Control Technology
Noise Level Super Quiet Operation of 21dB(A)
Filter Types Negative Air Ions Deodorising Filter
Apple Catechin Filter
Compressor Type Twin Rotary Compressor

Fujitsu got some issue, please stay away it.
If wanna cheaper now then go with Pana is the right choice.

thx ,appreciate ur help,recently i went to courts and all of the air con have only 2 tick,according to the salesman this is because they r using 8hrs/day usage as calculation that's why the two tick.This is the same as 4 tick previously,is this true?

Courts pricing is alway higher than other like GC or All Best.

Actually 2 ticks or 4 ticks is best on higher capacity / input watt. The greater EER = higher ticks.

But once come into current limitation lock at 8.5Amp = 1930w maximum power input watt & capacity for normal 2 ticks should be the same..

Some they claim on higher ticks but not cold as 2 ticks, you may Increse the temperature with fan speed, at the end from 2 ticks is still better with much more energy saving than 4 ticks
