Postby firsttango » Sun Apr 23, 2023 7:48 am

Looking to get air con for our lounge of 35sq mtrs any recommendations for any particular manufacturer to look at? And anyone know what the current approx cost of installation is (outdoor unit will be on wall directly behind indoor unit)

We have had LG inverter units in Comares and now Murcia, been very happy with them.
Prices vary so do your research on line. Our first units were from MalagaClima in Torre del Mar and we got good advice and service from them.

We have Fujitsu and are pleased with them. They have a very low setting which is quiet which we like as are sensitive to noise and find most fans annoying. Ours were installed a few years back at around 800€ each, but I expect prices have gone up since then!

Main advice is spend as much as you can afford - you will be making a 10-year investment and inefficient units will cost more to run and struggle to give you what you want - quiet cool and cosy warmth.

We changed our old Johnson units to Mitsubishi a couple of years ago and they have been much cheaper to run. Go for a major brand and remember that they are all the same under the covers. Avoid expensive options like WiFi. Get the cheapest of a good make but make sure it is powerful enough. You probably need one 2.5 or 3kw.
