    Alternative brands



    I am currently installing quite a few Fujitsus which I am very happy with, the only problem at the moment is availability, I have been let down a couple of times by my wholesaler and am now in a bit of a pickle. People talk about Mitsi heavy Industries, who sells them in the UK and has anyone had any dealings with Sanyo air con systems, how do they compare to Fujitsu in the reliability stakes and say does any one have any experience with Samsung, I have heard people laugh at Samsung and call them same dung, bad as LG. What other alternatives do we have apart from the expensive Daikin, Toshiba & Hitachi systems, I would really like to find a good competative priced reliable brand......... if one exists.

    Just found that HRP sell the MHI, how do they compare cost wise to Fujitsu anyone.

    Theres not much difference in price between Mitsubishi Heavy and Fujitsu.

    I have no experience of Samsung so cannot say. Daikin and Hitach are the top specs.

    I reckon Toshiba, panasonic, sharp come just above Fujitsu

    Leave mitsi heavy ind in the box their getting behind in the industry stakes,Sanyo are not bad but we always plump for mitsubishi electric(not the same as heavy).
    You can by direct from mitsi electric or dean & wood both have the same pricing discounts.

    We installed in the Past

    Panasonic
    Fujitsu
    Daikin
    LG
    Mitsi Heavy


    and have found that Mitsi HEavy offer the best value for money

    we install Mitsi Heavy along side Fujitsu ( the under ceiling / low wall units 24U ) are just great for large areas as they offer fantastic air flow


    Never install a Samsung, etc but
    Mitsi Heavy are all Go in the Inverter Range

    100% TAX back sir ?

    On the whole range now with Inverters up to 14 KW

    It was the missing area up till now , but its Inverter Cassettes all the way
