i,m new to this vrv game !

[eggs]

i run a small a/c company, and have recently quoted for my first vrv job.
although over the years i have fitted many, both as an employed and sub-contract engineer (mainly mitsu elec)i have never looked into the cost of them much.
Appx how much should i be paying for a 18hp condensing unit,15, 2.5kw wall mounts and 2, 10kw 4 way blows.
i dont mind which mitsu i use,i like daikin, hitachi give me a lot of support when i need it.
i just need a pointer as to the price.

can anyone put me in the picture.

cheers

this one seems a tad strange

you run a small a/c company so it's safe to assume you've already fitted splits thus far and therefore have access to the usual suppliers/prices etc

then you say you have quoted a vrv job -but you don't know how much the kit costs??

hhmmmm.....

Or he is an end-user who wants to know how many margin his installer takes .

Eggs,

How on earth did you quote for the job without knowing how much the kit would cost to buy??

No way would I use something that is new to me without involving my supplier to check that my application is correct.

I agree with you all folks. Mind you looking at the typing (lack of capital letters, spacing, etc.) maybe he is the Director of a small Company; first time at the keyboard perhaps

I'm the Co-Director of a small company and as you can see all my punctuation is correct. I think....!

Any way, you don't need brains to quote work, just a bloody good spellchecker!

'anyway' is one word ;-))

or it is in this context

ie 'I can't go anyway' means 'I cannot go whatever'

'i can't go any way' means 'I'm unable to proceed'

you are correct, i do have all my usual suppliers.
the point of my question is :
i, quoted the job using a mixture of splits and multi's.
then i went out for the vrv/vrf prices, out of curiosity to see if i could offer my customer a better system for a similar cost.
the prices i got back were about 25% higher for the kit.
is this about right.
is £175000 the norm for the system i mentioned in my first post ?
ok my grammer and punctuation are not the best, as i am an engineer, trying and learning all the time to run a business.
maybe one day i will be able to employ a silver tongued cavalier to do all my admin/sales/estimating work, but for now it's just me.
all i wanted to ask was a little bit of information from all you sharp suited, obviously far superior company managers and engineers.

thats all.

cheers friends.

Okay, time for some translation for the Colonies. VRV is that the same equipment(kit) that we call ductless splits?
