I'm based in Spain and deal mostly with Split type units. However some of the larger new properties are being built with water based Air Conditioning systems such as Panasonic WH-MDC05F3E5. The standard warranty is being offered only on condition on taking out a maintenance contract which is considerable (€800+ per year). My question is :- Is this normal for water based systems, is the price right? and what are the main differences in servicing.
