I was looking for a deal to buy an aircon, came across fujitsu 2.5kw reverse cycle air con.

Currently HN giving $150 eftpos card which you can use at any eftpos. I called the good guys but they didnt match it, went to TGG store @hoppers crossing and the guy said he can reduce the price to $750 but can't match HN price (so it comes $600 after fujitsu cashback). The HN@ hoppers crossing didnt have it in stock. I paid the deposit, will get the unit in 3 weeks time, the rep gave me $150 eftpos card straight away which needs to be activated after 7 days of purchase.

This is part of Father's Day deals for 2018.

    QLD residents may still be eligible for a rebate for energy efficient goods (sorry I can't link the reference from last year)

      To be eligible for the rebate, appliances needed to be purchased by June 3, and applications submitted by July 3, within 30 days of purchase.

      unfortunately :)

  • placard on 27/08/2018 - 15:11

    Why are there different models in the same kW range for Fujitsu? What's the difference between say the more expensive 3.5kW and cheaper 3.5kW - new vs old model for example?

    • [Deactivated] on 27/08/2018 - 15:34

      Cooling only vs reverse cycle. Different model names.

  • random101 on 27/08/2018 - 15:18

    I'm looking at buying two of these units.

    Ebay has $800 -10% -2% CB - $150.

    Which is about $570

  • [Deactivated] on 27/08/2018 - 15:22

    Thanks OP. Also a 7.1Kw unit with $400 back https://www.harveynorman.com.au/fujitsu-7-1kw-reverse-cycle-….

    Need one for BR and one for main areas.

    • pandadude on 30/08/2018 - 01:46

      Retravision has similar pricing for Fujitsu aircon.
      Instead of the EFTPOS card the unit price is discounted by a similar value.
      The discounts are not the same on all the units so best to compare.

    Does anyone know if they’ll negotiate on price with these deals if paying cash?

    • Kill Joy on 27/08/2018 - 15:38

      …why would cash make any difference in this scenario?

      • [Deactivated] on 27/08/2018 - 15:42

        Saves them on credit card processing fees. They could also in theory do the dodge with the GST :D

      • [Deactivated] on 27/08/2018 - 15:42

        Because every time I buy from hardly normal in store I talk the price down… It’s a lot harder when using interest free finance…

          Whats with the negs on a valid question? I didnt make any assumptions, or post an incorrect fact.

          Regarding the card processing fees - recent reform has capped the cost to vendors(and thus the cost transferred to consumers) to 2% (and less for debit cards). So for a grand total of $10 of savings to HN on a purchase of this cost, I dont see you brokering a better deal by using cash over credit card.

      Yes, placed an order today and able to negotiate with local HN sales, who was able to bring the price down @ $750. (i.e., $450 net i will be paying, with $150 HN efpots card + $150 Fujitsu cardback)

        • nnsha1 on 28/08/2018 - 23:44

          I had a relationship with local HN and the sales guy who usually looks after me. Also not sure if I received better rates due to quantity i end up buying in one transaction (total 7 units including few for my mates)

        • placard on 28/08/2018 - 23:48

          @nnsha1:

          Ah k, maybe in that case because you spend a bit there, and this time bought 7 you got discount. Did you tell them you wanted 7 before or after they gave that price?

        • nnsha1 on 30/08/2018 - 14:28

          @placard:

          HN was able to offer the same discounted price for a single unit or multiple units (which i end up buying for).

  • rxjb on 27/08/2018 - 15:41

    Whats the maximum length you can install the outdoor unit away from the head? I have a couple of bedrooms where installing the unit back to back would be quite unsightly and keen to install on a flat part of my roof. The downside, is the two units would be some distance apart. How big of an issue is this? If the length is long, i understand you need to top up the gas?

    • Wallyt99 on 27/08/2018 - 17:55

      Most units are fine to 20 metres but optimally efficient to 7. You will pay more - up to $50 per metre for extra pipe and refrigerant.

      • Gammanone on 28/08/2018 - 21:26

        Which is robbery as the paircoil for this size Ac is $100 for a role of 20m

    • BartholemewH on 27/08/2018 - 18:05
      +1

      Installing back to back is less efficient. You need to exceed the minimum piping length to ensure the phase change happens correctly.

      • Apue on 28/08/2018 - 16:30

        What is the minimum pipe length?

        Also if I set the unit 'Cold' only, the phase change won't be affected, right?

        • placard on 28/08/2018 - 16:36

          I think minimum length is 3 metres.

      Used these guys 2 years ago for a back to back install for a 2.5kw unit in the bedroom. $400 total. Extra $100 if you want a new circuit. I thought they were efficient, did a good job and were the cheapest quote as well. Would use them again.

      If the bedroom is reasonably well insulated you could get away with 2.1kW. Otherwise I'd go the 3.5kW.

      Installation you can DIY unless the pipe distance exceeds the length that can be run with the pre-charged refrigerant.

      • parallelparadox on 27/08/2018 - 19:46

        It is insulated but takes alot of sunlight during summer. May be the 2.5KW then

    • CacheHunter on 27/08/2018 - 20:02

    Good guys I think still has a deal running where they will take a similar amouny (in my case $150) off the cost of the install… I got it done that way before the HN deal came up. Price matched the AC unit down to $800 to save a bit on that too (they didn't want to go to $740 to match eBay at the time).

  • Frogprince7 on 27/08/2018 - 16:28

          ROFL, talk about overkill. We're talking about a 2.5kW split system here. Yes, you'll need a flaring tool if you don't have one already ($20 or less), and obviously whatever you personally require for the electrical side of things (again, it's a measly 2.5kW system, so a short run to an existing circuit would be more than adequate). As to nitrogen etc, you've got to be kidding.

    • Peace Horse on 27/08/2018 - 17:54

      No way. Next cheapest is for this model is $868 eBay the Good guys minus 15% P15GUYS code = $737.8 minus 2% cashback = $723.05 minus $150 Fujitsu cashback = $573.05

      This is $868 - $150 Fujitsu Cashback - $150 HN cashback = $568.00

      $5.05 cheaper.

      • random101 on 27/08/2018 - 19:14

        $799 minus 10% minus 2% = $713 -$150

        = $563

        $5 cheaper on eBay.

        • Peace Horse on 27/08/2018 - 19:23

          what 10% deal?

          I've had problems with that mob selling me something "New" which was really a refurb with much less warranty.

          I'd rather pay the extra $5 for all of Harvey Norman's flaws at least they will help with warranty with a local presence.
