Ref Net issues
Over the past six months we have had a series of misfortunes with Daikin Ref Nets. I was wondering if anyone else had the same issues.
Problems with the Ref Nets splitting.
Daikin have told us that our installation was too good, and we should leave more room in the tray for expansion of pipework. But because we tie it down and it looks all spiffy and neet. We have had to leave even more room for expansion.
We even went back to a site and replaced many of the Ref Nets just to be on the safe side.

Re: Ref Net issues
This is a big problem with Daikin refnets if you hydrozorb clip the pipe work. From experiance lets just say if your pipework is free willy then you will not have any problems. If you need to clip your pipework dont tighten the clips. As far as warrenty will go all Daikin will say is you should have read the small print in the install manual!!!! Good luck!

Re: Ref Net issues
We didnt have that problem with Daikin, generaly we only cable tie pipework down but on some sites. Mainly Siske they ask us to hydrozorb them down. Which increased the time frame of work, which pissed them off lol
Daikin put our splitting problem down to a bad batch of refnets. So they replaced them without charge. And our warrenty stayed intact. I just hope it doesnt happen again. Cause I dont fancy the company loosing money. Loosing money lowers the end of year bonus lol
