Hi all

Just pulled the trigger on 3 AC split systems after cashback. I did a bit of research and MHI are very reliable, the Fujitsu is abit cheaper but i heard that they are not as reliable after 5 years but i already have a similar model at home and it never gave me any trouble, plus they have won afew awards for being best value A/C for last two years so quality must have improved. SO what i did, i bought both models and will install them next to each other in diff rooms and see which one is better and will come back to you after 5 years :)

*edit: I forgotten to mention the Cash Rewards cashback. Did not include the 1.25% in the calculations :P

    From what I've heard. Fujitsu are supposed to be a bit less serviceable than other brands. But there outdoor unit is really compact. I also find their heads to be less lairy and look less obtrusive in the house. Also they are quiet. I bought a couple of panasonics last year and I like them ok. But I can see why a more compact outdoor unit is attractive. I'm not sure if serviceability is a big deal anyway as if it fails after the 5 yr warranty you be better off just ripping out and replacing at these prices. One thing about the new ones I have is Panasonic's quiet mode has to be activated every time you turn it on. it dosent remember… which I find annoying. It would annoy me more in a bedroom install where you want to fumble around for the remote in the dark and just press the on button. Can't comment on mhi but I find the head unit style and bit dated and attention grabbing. We had a Mitsubishi electric in our last house in the bedroom and it was magic. So quiet like 18 dB… we kept accidentally leaving it on. But good guys don't sell those.

    • Mad Max on 05/06/2016 - 08:40

      Does anybody know about the multiheaders units?
      Some brands have one outdoor unit that can drive multiple (3-4?) indoor units. I know they exist but I cannot find reviews or advertised deals about them.

      • starburstyellow on 05/06/2016 - 15:47

        I got one of these. Bought from retravision few years back.

        • Mad Max on 05/06/2016 - 20:40

          Hi starburstyellow
          What brand is it? Are you happy with it? How much did it cost? Would you recommend it? Thank you.

        • starburstyellow on 05/06/2016 - 22:53

          @maxi: It was a Fujitsu. Still working to this day. Paid around $3500 I believe. had 4 units attached to 1 cooler 'thingie' in the back of the house. I would recommend it if you cant put in a ducted system or if your house is small. If your house is quite big, might cost abit with the hosing/piping etc.

        • sillyhead on 06/06/2016 - 08:08
          +1

          @maxi:

          I always thought having separate kits is cheaper to install, replace (i.e. one fails at a time) and more efficient to run. (The EER is always better the smaller the unit). I would have a good think about how many areas actually need a unit first. You can also pay a bit more for the install and put all the outdoor units along the side of the house that you dont use, even bracket them vertically.

        • Mad Max on 06/06/2016 - 17:14

          @sillyhead:
          Yes it is probably cheaper and more efficient just installing the normal 1 unit in to 1 unit out, but the outside units are so bulky and unsightly. Imagine having a row or a stack of 3 or 4 of them on the side of the house.
          I guess the 1 in to 1 out are cheaper to buy just because they are the most popular, otherwise the 3 -4 in to 1 out should be cheaper (1 bigger outside unit should cost less than 3-4 smaller outside units)

    • JimmyF on 05/06/2016 - 21:35

      compact outside unit isn't always a good thing. In the cold they freeze up very easy, which means a defrost cycle and in the hot weather, the downgrade the cooling output as the tiny heat exchanger can't keep up to demand.

    With bunnings 10% price beat plus the $150 cash back, unit comes to $1281.

    Really good price for the bigger unit.

    I've got two Mitsubishi Heavy Industry Air cons (a 2.5kw cooling/3.2kw heating and 3.5kw cooling and 4.2kw heating) which were installed in 2010. Still going strong 6 years later!

    • SpendLess on 05/06/2016 - 10:47

      What size are u rooms? Thinking about getting it did a 40sqm room. 3.5kw
      Thanks

      • captobvious on 05/06/2016 - 11:16

        Like a 5x8m room? You will want more than 3.5 kw. A 5kw system will be more suitable and add more kw for tropics.

      • akyeeeahdude on 05/06/2016 - 15:27

        The 3.5kw powers my daughters side of the house. It is installed in the activity room which is just under 20m2. It then flows through to my daughters room which is 16m2. The other rooms have their doors shut but we've had it going whilst family were visiting with another 16m2 bedroom door open. It cools perfectly. This is in Brisbane's summer too.

        For a 40m2, 3.5kw would be sufficient unless you live somewhere extremely hot or you cannot adequately close off your lounge room.

        We have the 2.5kw in our bedroom which is 24m2. Again, it works perfectly and can turn it into an ice box, even in summer.

    • [Deactivated] on 05/06/2016 - 12:46

      we've got a few Bitsubishis. We had an issue with one, but the previous owner bought it, so no receipt. Called up Mitsubshi who said they can see that it was in their warehouse 6yrs before, so they'll fix it under warranty (has 7yrs). So can't be happier.

      I've got a mate who installs Kelvinators & said the Mitsubishi's are a class above the most of the others (Kelvinator, Fujitsu, LG, etc) in built quality (the housing & motor).

  • [Deactivated] on 05/06/2016 - 10:29

    Yeah this Summer is our first with a 6kW Mitsubishi Electric split and not only was it got dam beautiful when used and it was used a lot, it was quiet as well. We used it more than the previous due to the longer summer we had in FNQ and still managed to get under the electricity bill by a long shot for the same period of the old AC. Will be buying again if needed. Love it.

    • JimmyF on 05/06/2016 - 21:36

      Mitsubishi Electric is a different company to MHI…..

      • [Deactivated] on 05/06/2016 - 22:23

          Not sure what you have going on there…. Do you have more than one unit?

          They are TWO different companies…. who happen to both sell AC units.

          Both sell great units etc, but you can't mix and match them.

    Not sure if this question is appropriate here. What if you buy from Goodguys with installations, they come and find out your power board cant support?

    • shaybisc on 05/06/2016 - 11:21

        We were enquiring about 2 x 2.5-3.5kW air conditioners, at that time.

        My understanding is that he thinks it is not enough power, so we need to organise the council/electricity company to come upgrade higher voltage from power exchange to our power box.

        • [Deactivated] on 05/06/2016 - 12:38

          that doesn't make much sense. you might need your fusebox upgraded? (that's something a sparkie usually does). Power wholesalers generally only manage the line up to the meter. Where are you?

      Unfortunately I find many people will tend to review with their emotions and they tend to be one extreme or the other. Maybe they got a faulty one to start with so therefore the product is rubbish. Or they may have used a product for 5 mins and decide its fantastic and give it 5 stars without having truly used it. Just have to see if you can find if there are common issues mentioned by the reviewers I suppose.

      Totally depends on…

      1. Distance between cooling unit and power box
      2. Distance between inside unit and outside unit
      3. Do you want it in the ground or on the wall
      4. If it on level 1 or 2, or higher of the ground.

      Generally depending on the above, prices start at $450 to $1100+.

    Did you consider/compare Panasonic units? Bought a few myself during the previous 20% off sale. The CS-CU-Z9RKR for example is currently $899, so $619.20 after discount.

    Mine was $885 at the time; on top of cashrewards and Peaksmart, managed to save a bit more by claiming on TGG's pay less guarantee as HN had theirs for $849 at the time, so got another $43.20 back (120% of the difference). Did the same thing on a 7kW unit for an extra $168 saving.

  • RB88 on 07/06/2016 - 05:35

    "Standard" install (back to back wall < 3m and available circuit breaker in meter box) is $650 from most GG stores in melb I checked with. Yes can probably be found cheaper but consider the warranty - if it's not done right the installer will blame the unit, or the retailer the installer if something goes wrong. For $100~ difference not worth it in my opinion.

  • RB88 on 07/06/2016 - 05:37

    Also found this slightly cheaper in Melb & SA - NCG Air Conditioning (4 locations, google them) are advertising the Fujitsu for $499 after cash back so $649 upfront, BUT is conditional upon their installation which is $680 for standard install, and they need to quote onsite.

    Do these "standard" installations include isolator switches on the outdoor unit? I've decided against buying one of these- La Nina cool summer coming so it's not urgent- but I've been reading up and isolator switches, not hard wiring to the switchboard, are the go.
