Buying new 3/4 HP aircon...

[Psylocke]

OK ba ang LG na aircon? meron sila 11k lang 3/4 horse...

[Sheep]

i suggest not to get anything lesser than 1hp

lower hp = longer cooling time
unless room is very small

[_Qwerty_]

depende sa room.. pa check mo muna sa kanila..

[VtEC]

Kala ko phased out na ang mga 3/4hp na AC.Depende sa laki ng room mo yan bro.kung nasa 12x12 lang room mo pwede nayan.Split type ba yan?

[non-vtec]

ok na ang 3/4hp for a 12SQM and below. you can also include tried and tested brands like kelvinator/condura.

[Isuzoom]

buy 1 hp para sa small room almost pareho ang electric consumption.

[mackvil]

Afaik, wala ng 3/4 HP ang mga local airconditioners ngayon.. 0.8HP na lahat ng current models.. you can also try Panasonic (former National)....

[Horsepower]

mga 1.5hp para mas mabilis lumamig at di masyado pwersado yung compressor kasi mabilis magt-turn off after ma-reach yung target temperature.

LG na 3/4 HP gamit sa kwarto ng anak ko ayos naman pero kelangan naka full talaga

Yung 1hp pataas na lang kunin mo.

[Galactus]

Yup yup, at least 1HP/ Yung bedroom namin less than 12 sqm, pero hindi talaga kayang palamigin ng 3/4 HP (Samsung), even when it was brand new

Meron akong LG Gold Fin .9 HP. So far di ako binigyan ng sakit ng ulo. Ang isa pang magandang feature bukod sa reliable is matipid talaga sa kuryente. 11.6 and EER (Energy Efficiency Ratio) ng nabili ko. Almost 5 years wala pang sira. Regular cleaning lan.

Make sure sukatin mo ang room na papalamigin. Meron sa internet kung pano malalaman kung anong HP ang kailangan mo based sa size ng room and kung saan ang location mo (temperate, etc). Once nakuha mo na ang size ng A/C na kailangan mo, hanapin mo ang may pinaka-mataas na EER rating na makikita mo sa market.

I have a Condura 3/4hp a/c in my room. Maliit lang naman room ko, about 16sq.mtrs. Ok naman sya. I've had that for about 7 years na yata. Can't remember na eh!

I think it's okay, but be certain that the size of your room fits your A/C's capacity. Else, it will be overworked (higher duty cycle), which will translate to accelerated wear and tear on the unit.

I remember buying 1HP Kelvinator A/Cs a couple of years ago for P9,999 each. So far, the A/Cs are still running without any hitch.

Bottomline, you might want to consider buying a 1HP A/C if it is in the same ballpark price.

OT: How can you improve electric efficiency sa aircon?

[Radical!]

I highly recommend you buy a Panasonic. Panasonic makes great room A/C's. I have a National (Panasonic) which I use every single day that's 13 years old. Still very efficient and quiet. The worst A/C's are the 90's Carrier/Condura. I have one which I use sparingly. It is noisy and doesn't cool the room very well.

As for efficiency, mounting area must be high and be clear of objects which restrict air movement. Room must have good insulation and should have blinds/curtains to block off the sun. Also, have the A/C unit cleaned every 3-6 months depending on the usage and clean the filter once a month.

HTH

OT: hey guys, forgive me for being ignorant.. pero panu po ba nililinis ang aircon? hehehe... air filter lang alam ko linisin eh.

agree ako dito. ang Carrier na gamit ko maingay.
ang National efficient talaga.

National/Panasonic aircons have 5yr warranty on their compressors. Sa iba yata 3yrs lang.

split type - transfer freon from evaporator unit (inside) to condenser (outside), dismantle the evaporator half then clean blower and evaporator itself using high pressure washer.

window type - remove whole unit from wall, remove cover and pressure wash evaporator fins and condenser, also the blower if necessary.

[boybi]

Pwedeng hindi na i-dismantle ang indoor unit when cleaning it. Nagsasabit ng malaking catch basin yung naglilinis, then alalay sa pressure washer para hindi tumalsik sa loob ng room yung dumi at water splashes.
