    What's the best way to get A/C done? Buy the unit and get someone local or arrange through good guys commercial (if they offer it)? Or find a local business and get them to do the whole thing.?

      I got mine done from TGG. They anyway outsource it, but worth the money.

      Plus if you’ve got gift cards, then you can use that to discount installation cost.

      We got two MHIs installed through TGG 3 or so years ago. One unit developed an issue about a year in so I contacted TGG and they sent someone out to assess it. They discovered it was a board issue but also that the original installer didn't wire it to it's own breaker. As the original installer wasn't on their books any more, TGG paid for a complete rewire (around 20m or cabling). It all took a bit longer that it should have to resolve but there was no out of pocket for either.

      We just had one done via Harvey Norman literally 3 days ago. It was around $1000 and the install was pretty good. We got independent quotes and they were over double that. The company was called Advanced One

    I would recommend getting TGG installer if purchasing from them or get everything (supply and install) from the 3rd party company itself.

    TGG quoted 600-800 for a single storey installation last time when I asked a staff member.

    • freefall101 on 28/07/2024 - 12:40

      Not a bad price, I was charged $850 by Bunnings last week for a single story split system install. They just outsource it too (technically twice, it goes to their installer company who find a local installer, everyone takes a cut I guess) but I also know exactly what I paid for already too.

      My only worry is the lack of knowledge on repairs on this machine. Trying to get someone to repair an old samsung unit was difficult because they all work with Daikon and Mitsubishi. Otherwise I paid almost as much to get a 3.5kw installed as this 7.7kw one would be.

      • Murkymerv on 29/07/2024 - 09:26

        Installation is always going to be the same cost , it’s only when you add a second level or cassettes it becomes a different cost

        • Brick50 on 03/08/2024 - 10:39

          3.5kw can tap into existing circuit, 7kw will need a new dedicated circuit so installation cost may differ. It’s good practice 3.5kw should be on a new circuit but not always the case

    I have this one.
    Bought for 1150$ a year or so ago
    Running well just make sure you clean the filters which is easy to do.
    Heats/cools the lounge and kitchen well.
    I recommend it

    • amaneight on 28/07/2024 - 12:17

      Filters are easy to clean. Just ask the installer about all the maintenance stuff

    • troyww on 28/07/2024 - 15:56

      Also have the same unit and am very happy with it ,
      Also bought about a year ago ,

  • solidussnake on 28/07/2024 - 12:23

    I got the 5kw version for $900 - less the QLD gov rebate of $300 at the time. The split system is very large inside but no dramas with it.

    COP of 3.5

    If you plan on running it alot, might be better to go with 2 small units. The 2.5kw model in the same range has a COP of 4.8

    • Headless on 28/07/2024 - 14:21

      What is COP?

      • outlander on 28/07/2024 - 14:46
        +4

        COP is basically the efficiency of the unit. How much cold or heat you get per energy used. With normal appliances, the most you would get is 100%, because how could something be more efficient than 100%? But air conditioners steal heat from the outside air, so they can go beyond that 100%, giving you more.

        This AC is 3.5, meaning it gives 3.5 units of heat (or cooling) for every unit of electricity. But units with a bigger condenser commonly have a COP upwards of 5.

        Ultimately what it means is lower running costs, in exchange for higher installation costs.

      • jjjaar on 28/07/2024 - 22:04
        +3

        In terms of the acronym, it stands for Coefficient of Performance and is related to heating mode.

        EEP, Energy Efficiency Ratio, is the name for cooling mode.

        Outlander has provided a great explanation of what it means, but more info is here:

  • samp365 on 28/07/2024 - 12:41

    On a related note.. How safe is it to install AC just above the TV unit.. That is the only wall that we have in the living room.. Else have to install it on a side plasterboard.. Our other unit in bedroom, which is 10 year old, at times drips water.. May be like once or twice per season.. So a bit apprehensive on the installation above a TV until

    • Ezekiel2320 on 28/07/2024 - 12:45

      It should never drip inside. Check the condensate drain lines are clear of fluff/mold/correctly angled to allow the water to drain

    • perfeksionitst on 28/07/2024 - 12:49

      Avoid if you can, I had a tv ruined because a few drops of water leaked from the unit. Luckily it was covered by my insurer.

    • Kustard King on 28/07/2024 - 15:19

      Just make sure it’s easy to remove the tv once a year for a unit clean if you use the aircon alot

  • Brick50 on 28/07/2024 - 13:58

    I have 2x HAWV12KR purchase mid 2022 3.5kw each.

    Quite happy with the units and can control them with ConnectLife App, I use Amazon Alexa to turn them on and off sometimes.

    I am looking for a 7kw system so seems like pretty good timing, in summer a couple of times I have had my other units freeze up and either blow ice or drip cold water.
    The filters weren’t blocked up but once I cleaned them it didn’t seem to happen again, don’t know if that fixed it or not.

    Still debating whether I get the Hisense or go for MHI 7.1kw. Don’t think it’s as efficient but probably better longevity, although it would be nice to have them all controlled from one app

      I’ve had that issue with Kelvinator. I noticed one night that icicles were being formed, and all it required was cleaning the filter.

    Keep in mind you can likely get TGG to price match and then use ultimate/TCN gift cards to pay as well

      I couldn’t. I asked them they said no

      • Brick50 on 31/08/2024 - 12:47

        I had the same problem unfortunately, not sure what it is but haven’t been denied before.

        Maybe they would pricematch appliances online $1299 and then if you get 10% off gift cards would be cheaper depending on how much you can be bothered

    WA only ! Check out Coogle Air - they supply and install. I've had their 5kw MHI very busy for 4 years and also got $150 promotion back so about $1250 all up with a 4m long indoor channel run so blows directly into bedroom . Best deal I could get over here . Ensure get the best warranties sorted out .

      Open an account with Australian Retirement Trust and don’t put any money in it.
      The account comes with access to Jbhifi commercial and Tgg commercial. It takes a few days to get credentials to the platform though.

    How does this compare to this Kelvinator:

    • amaneight on 28/07/2024 - 16:50

      I have both Hisense (living room) and Kelvinator (bedroom)

      I tried using Kelvinator app, and it was impossible to setup and connect my aircons.

      Also with the Kelvinator aircons I can say that it’s not very effective when the temperature goes below 2 degrees. It keeps running defrost process every 20-30 mins. If you’re in the region where temperature falls really low, I won’t recommend going for Kelvinator .

      • Brick50 on 28/07/2024 - 17:59

        Are you happy with the way the Hisense regulates temp? I have never really had any jap/korean split systems to compare to.

        However I find that it doesn't really maintain temperature, ie if you set it to 20 degrees and close the door it will likely heat it to around 26 degrees. My MIL also had some big hisense units installed, I am assuming it's this model here and she has hers on 16 degree heat and it gets up to around 20 or so.

        I'm sure its a feature of all split systems but do some brands ever cycle on and off at the desired temp (imagine gas dusted system, kicks on and off) or do they all just constantly blow air and cycle the compressor as required

        • amaneight on 28/07/2024 - 21:32

          Not really. Never had an issue with this model.

          Both our Daikan 7kW and MHI 2.5kW cycle on and off when they reach their set temp, but this only happens when outside is quite warm and heat loss inside is low.

      I think its ok, the 7KW MHI is 3 for heating and 3 for cooling.
      I think its better to look at the following.

      COP Heating H1 3.96

    I purchased this unit about three months ago. While it performs exceptionally well in terms of cooling, we've encountered significant issues with the noise generated by the condenser. It is quite loud and produces a throbbing sound that causes the entire wall to vibrate. This noise even carries into other rooms in the house.

    The previous Fujitsu unit we had did not have this problem. We had a technician from Hisense inspect it, and he explained that the noise is due to the design of the unit. He noted that the condenser is louder compared to other brands, and this is a characteristic of the Hisense model compared to the quieter Fujitsu units.

    To address the issue, the installer returned and made adjustments, including repositioning the pipes so they no longer touch the bracket and adding thicker waffle pads under the condenser feet. While these changes have helped reduce the noise, it is still noticeable.

    On a positive note, we really appreciate the app functionality. We can control the unit from our phones before we get home, and it integrates seamlessly with our Google speakers for basic voice commands. The built-in Wi-Fi is also a great feature, eliminating the need for an additional module, unlike some other units we considered.

    Given these experiences, I would likely choose a Fujitsu for future replacements in other rooms. I hadn’t fully appreciated how beneficial it is to have a unit that operates quietly until experiencing the persistent noise of this model. Won't pay more for wifi though and will miss the app and voice functionailty :-(

    Has anyone had any luck getting TGG to quote on an install for these? I called the commercial number and TGG advised they could only quote after a $89 site inspection (?wtf) and I had to request a quote in an email.

    I also called a few local tradies and got knocked back. They would either only ‘supply and install’ or would only install specific a/c brands. wtf?

    • Arcticfox on 31/08/2024 - 19:08

      I tried initially, but decided against it as I didn't like losing the $89 inspection fee without knowing if the end quote would be ridiculous. I called my usual installer and they were fine to install any unit I supplied. Cost me $550 + GST in the end ($605), which I was fine with.

      • sridhar on 01/09/2024 - 09:34

          Gotta admit the company we use has always been good to us. I still did 2 other comparison quotes, but they were still the best.
