Inverter Type AC in Pakistan (Inverter/Non Inverter Dedicated Discussion)

I had a Gree AC but they refused to install it and referred me to 3rd party installers who didn't agree with the idea of using a vacuum pump.

After trails and error, I emailed Dawlance & they called me back a few hours later, assuring that they would have everything I had written in that email.

Their installers arrived in the evening and they had the glorious vacuum pump. They did the installation through proper measures and vacuumed the lines for 18 minutes. It has been running with no issues.

Thanks how much they charged?

paladin (🦈) 2021-06-11 22:10:21 +0500 #7489

3k only.

I was also going for Daiken but they quoted me 10k, which was ridiculously high.

dms664 2021-06-11 22:33:54 +0500 #7491

10k for installation? Are they crazy?

dms664 2021-06-11 22:38:13 +0500 #7492

It included bracket too?

Bear in mind daikin 1.6 ton inverter AC is 195 k. It's 5% for 195k investment.

I think I paid 10K that included installation with vacuum plus the pipes and fittings that didn't come with my Daikin. Did not include brackets though. Yes it was expensive but I got a good deal on the AC and I don't know how much the pipes and fittings are worth.

Which one is better, Dawlance or Electrolux?

krafiq (krafiq) 2021-06-12 10:41:05 +0500 #7499

What's the ampere draw of daikin unit? Have you tested it?

TCL miracle 1.5 ton: 5 - 6 units during 8 hours use in this heat of June

TCL Elite 1 ton: 5 - 6 units during 8 hours use these days.

I run Miracle with auto-fan setting and sometimes lock it at 3A with generator mode.
I run Elite with low fan settings only. When fan is running at low speed AC runs at 3A max and cooling is enough for 12x12 room.
I run both air conditioners at 27C temperature.

Dawlance. Electrolux is just a third class brand. Even Swedish people don't buy their crap products.

Might cause drain issue if you use it on heat mode in winter. Pour some water on outdoor coils and see how much water is drained.

paladin (🦈) 2021-06-12 12:19:29 +0500 #7503

No. Brackets were separately charged. Since they weren't too expensive so I wasn't too worried. I did end up changing the silver pipes that come with Gree ACs to copper ones. And sold the silver pipes for around Rs. 600 on the spot.

Karachi.

dms664 2021-06-12 12:36:48 +0500 #7505

With piping it is fine because copper piping is expensive

I have to service my 2 Gree G10 inverter. One is 1.25 ton and other is 2 ton. The technicians are ready to do it in 3000 for both. But I want to know if he removes the indoor unit, will I loose some gas and will it needs vaccuming? And is it better to find the technician who will service indoor without removing it?
Btw both units are 5 to 6 years old and never been serviced. Cooling is up to the mark but evaporator is getting dirty.
