Vratenza Supersonic July 8, 2016 Share July 8, 2016 Update you guys here on my dead starmex fancoil. Thanks to @Radx. Got his contact down to have a second opinion on my dead fancoil (largest unit at home as it is meant for the living room). The guy is a very straight talking malaysian small sized guy. Tell me the problem is the wire too. the difference is that he is willing to solve the problem for me in a more logical and straightforward way compared to the previous assessor. He was willing to climb up into the space between the roof and my false ceiling (I live on top floor) to re-lay the new wire without opening up further man-holes on my ceiling. End up a 2 hour job that cost me 1/3 of the previous quote. Lesson learnt: my aircon was installed 5 yrs ago when I first bought the unit and was doing an overhaul. The aircon quote was the lowest I got. At that time I was only focused on the pipes and insulation material used. I overlooked on the wire used. turns out they installation guys used lousy china made low gauge wire to do the installation. Since my living room unit is the largest capacity, it is expected to draw more power than my other units around the house, probably explained the early failure of the wire. the repairman told me to be mentally prepared that my other units might develope the same problem one after another. So for those who are getting a new system, please monitor and ensure that other than the pipes/insulation material, they are giving you proper wires too. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gitanic 6th Gear July 8, 2016 Share July 8, 2016 The apartments in European countries have central heating and aircon. They have steam pipes in the bathroom also for u to hang ur towels. Imagine wiping urself with a heated towel, just like sitting in SQ where they provide hot towels take off and landing. Watching too much HGTV, House Hunters International. then we have this on roof-top. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lousy wire was used for air con system. One unit got affected. My regular air con guy suggest to create a new electrical wire to the nearest power socket. Of coz the best option is to re-wire the entire cable but this will create problems for some hidden parts of the wire. I will have to break some cabinets. I'm also being advised that other units will be affected at later time, due to the crappy wire. The crappy wire is aluminium with copper coated. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kb27 Supersonic July 9, 2016 Share July 9, 2016 There is probably some specs on installation, wiring to be used, installation spacing, etc. But contractors always throw those papers away and do their own thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vratenza Supersonic July 10, 2016 Share July 10, 2016 Yeah, we are left to their mercy unless we are well read and able to stand around to breath down their necks during installation. For my installation, I hung around to make sure they gave me the piping and insulation agreed upon....end up I missed out on the wire quality...sigh Lesson learnt.

Count-Bracula Twincharged July 10, 2016 Share July 10, 2016 Help please! How come my off aircon timer does not work? I set the “Clock”STOP to 2am but always wake up half-frozen an hour or 2 after 2am to find out the aircon is still on! I read the manual a dozen times and I believe I did correctly as instructed but AC still never turn off at the time set. Why arhh?
