Looking for a cheap AC unit

Looking for a cheap ac unit for my bedroom and study, i don't care if new or used.

Just needs to be decent on the cheap. Put evaporative in my house about 3 years ago, spent $4500. its been the most expensive piece of junk I've ever bought

  • Try looking in some Asian newspapers. I am not able to read it, but I can certainly tell what the ad is saying if it has a picture of an air con with the price next to it. I have seen some ads in some of them that has some pretty good pricing. :)

    Edit: if you really need to know what the ad is saying, I use the Google Translate app on my phone to take a picture and translate it.

  • check harvey norman they had a fairly good sale on fixed/portable AC units as part of the new year sale.

  • If you decide to get an inverter, make sure to get quotes for installation, as they can cost as much as the unit themselves. My Samsung $899 unit cost $700 to install. After the heat last night though, I don't even mind.

      Is the installation of an inverter or a regular unit any different? The inverter technology is within the system itself, where the outdoor unit doesn't just operate at 0% (OFF) or 100% (ON). In an inverter system, the outdoor unit scales gradually either % up and down as and when required.
