Just been to our Air-con appointment at Bella Vista.
As anyone would have guessed, the Masterton Air-Con Special deal of $5999 for a $13K RRP system, is no where near what our house requires to heat or cool.
For $5999 you get a 16Kw (21hp) TimeZone brand (never heard of) 2 zone 12 outlet system. We require anywhere from 18Kw to 20Kw to have a more practical 2 zones at the same time operation. With this system we would have been running full all the time and never heat/cool the rooms.
We were recommended an upgrade to DAIKIN 18Kw ($4500) 4 zone system (extra 2 zones from deal with $500 extra per zone). This will allow 2 to 3 zones operational at any one time (totalling to 18Kw), plus having 4 zones will allow to separate each level into 2 groups.
We could upgrade the TimeZone brand to 18Kw for $2500, but opted with Daikin for known brand name.
It is an inverter module, allowing more quieter and cost effective run in the long run.
With the upgrade, we can have kitchen/family room area as well as bedrooms upstairs at the same time, or bedrooms and upstairs lounge etc.
Comes with simple to use 1 controller.
The price, extra $5500. That totals to $11,500. Still a good value I guess.
