WTK: Air Condition Units

[powered by ?]

Good day,
Looking to purchase a 12000BTU split unit, but i looking for a company that offers good after sale support i.e if a part goes bad before the warranty is up honoring it on a timely manner without any problems, also any recommendations on a good brand? heard Daikin is a very good but sorry i not going to pay 10K for a 12000btu unit.

Thanks

I hear that even though Peakes is not the best, they are the most cost effective. If yuh get Daikin, yuh orn wit the best though. Daiking is best for severe environments like by the seashore and thing where other units would not stand a chance. If is not a severe application, I guess another brand would suffice. I going to take a course in repairing these things soon, because they are simple to maintain and every callout I do for a maintainance man costing over 300 bucks.

heard from a Senior Peake Service Technician not to buy their units because their unit has gotten inferior and also the body tends to rust very fast.

In fact that was the first company i checked and when i got this info i just didn't bother.

Also heard that Climate Control has good units but there after sale service stinks.

I totally agree but my main concern is after sale service, i don't want to have a unit not functioning for weeks in my house, since we changed the ceiling its like a furnaces in that house and a fan just wouldn`t cut it.

Which one of them is best quality in your oppinion? I was considering Peakes once I learn to service it myself, because the service after a few years adds up to more than the cost of the unit.

[ronsin1]

IMHO LG is the best of all three,

Lennox really a knock off brand but works good the few I have installed have been working with out any problems.

Miller is basicly a York unit in a miller housing

note: the peake unit uses the same housing as miller not the same parts doh

call ABEL A/C Division and get a quote on a KATASHI unit. They have the best and lowest prices guaranteed. KATASHI is a direct competitor to PEAKE'S. Both are the cheapest in the market.

CoolWay Services. 680-4474 Very good sales and service

Any other outlets besides Abel?

Not to keen on the Katashi brand looking for something more recognized.

Abel installs different brands. Carrier is also included though I would not recommend it. They work great but are noisy as hell.

Heard the same thing also have experience here in work with three carrier units down because they are unable to get the circuit board for the indoor unit.

Those Panasonic units work really well. S.A.G Trading sells the units or you can get it from the people who installed mine at the contractor price. PM if you want info.

forget everything you hear and buy a Peake.

i'll endorse that... 4 peake units at home running for the last 7-8 years trouble free... routine maintenance and one fan blade and that's it.

[powered by ?]

Mini, I would agree that Peakes had good units but their standards drop, i was advised by many people who have Peake units not to purchase any from them.

Which is why I said I taking a course in it service really have inflated prices for half hour wuk.

all units the same man, its the service that matters ask anyone who knows

[dsaint]

^^ not true. Some units offer better features than others. Power consumption is also different among units. Compare a Peake or Carrier unit to a Daikin or chill water system for example.
Some run MUCH quieter than others .. etc. etc ...

Service really does matter tho ...

well i was told by a prominent A/C dealer that teh components are all made by almost the same people. Just like a computer.

Fact #1. Peake Units are in fact good and reliable.
Fact#2 Peake units are affordable
Fact #3 Peake, as far as I know offer the best service around which leaves...

why the hell am I looking around to pinch a penny or buy some fancy thing when it needs to be serviced every 3-4 months?

[pugboy]

check for the warranty, some have 5 year replacement warranty

[Invisible]

anyone have any experience with Toshiba units?

[acesinghit]

^^Toshiba units are superior to PEAKE's own. Read the technologies for air filtration as opposed to that for the PEAKE's and its a clear advantage plus the TOSHIBA uses less current.

[Invisible]

Will do...thanks for the info

Have to agree with you there. Never said Peake units are no good. I wouldn't go as far to say they are the best but at least parts and service are readily available which makes the difference.
