babadots:Thanks, this is amazing they are not multiple splits that as one single condenser outside unit with 4 to 8 split internal units. My concern about this particular unit is the cost of energy consumption. Although I understand it can be programmed to use any of the units when needed, but the condenser unit is running at capacity which I think is not cost efficient. Please, if you don’t mind can you share more lights on it, or if possible post what it looks like for others that may be interested to learn about it thanks. There is a debate between some professionals in that line, in regards to inverter AC’s and regular AC. Some are of the opinion that the regular AC’s is more powerful in times of output performance in cooling. The other opinion is the inverter AC’s are only good in energy savings but not strong in times of outputs of cooling. 2 Likes |

kopell: I am partial to Japanese technology. Others exist, you can search for them. Panasonic is just as good. Use VRV or multi-split ac to do your search

FEGEITOK:Thanks, this is the one in my office with 17 internal cool and hot splits, in my opinion is not as efficient as the older regular ones. When the weather is extremely hot we can’t fill it as much. The AC’s guys department are forced to turn the chillers on.

kopell: Well, over to the professionals. Could it be a sizing issue? Either the unit is too small or the room(s) are too big for the application? I cannot say which is which. When I got my A/C I calculated the area and used some online calculators to determine the appropriate size of AC for the intended space 1 Like |

ifejilika: From my past experience, I can hazard a guest that lapping or lack of it is not the only issue with your roof. Metcopo has a design/conceptual flaw. It is always not a good decision to settle for metcopo. If it is lapping, then nail down the flapping parts. The solution depends on the nature of the leak. Is it leaking whole scale? Like all part of the roof is leaking? If yes, you may need to reinstall using double lapping method. If it is only leaking in sections, remove the leaking section and reinstall using double lapping method. This approach worked for me and ever since, I've sworn never to use metcopo again. Do you know there are homeowners who never had a single issue with metcopo? But these homeowners are in the minority. If you use metcopo, one issue or the other must crop up. If no be lapping, na factory corrugation, or na as the installer knack the nail. One issue sha must give you headache. |

BrickDevo: Not sure it has any tank. The technology seems to be centered on the flush pressure. That metal pressure flusher part is connected directly to the water line. |

rmx:Rmx I thought you’re of opinion for chillers for your huge projects, what change. Are those VRF types are of economically viable for projects like hotels or multiple units of condos? |

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by babadots: 8:02pm On Dec 04, 2022 |
kopell: Well, I am not the expert in this field, but the trick is that the condenser only runs at the optimal capacity based on the demand from the indoor units. You are also able to have different rooms at different temperatures, as each room has its own thermostat and controls. Another advantage is that your entire house is served by a limited number of units, so you don't have condensers hanging all over the building. You can use different indoor units connected to the single condenser e.g. a wall-mounted unit and a standing unit and a ceiling-embedded unit and a concealed unit all powered by the same condenser. A lot of these multi-splits also use the inverter technology as well as the newer R-32 refrigerant which are both good for the pocket and the environment. I am sure some other clued-up folks in here will be better able to extend this list. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by babadots: 8:08pm On Dec 04, 2022 |
kopell: In terms of effectiveness, the sizing has to be done before specs are agreed. The volume of the room and the direction of the dominant windows makes a lot of difference. Windows facing the sun in the late afternoons and evenings admit more heat and these should be considered when specifying the capacity. |

kopell: I use water cooled chillers In my factory , for this my mall projects am using ducted split in some areas , I think that’s what it is called. Midea , imported myself . I think you can use vrf /vrv for all applications but I stuck with ducted for this my projects

topsy23: Spot on. If this is popular in Nigeria, how come the suppliers are not promoting them? I have been struggling to find the information that you and our other folks on this forum have given in the past couple of days. I hope we have folks who can also service them as well. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by babadots: 8:15pm On Dec 04, 2022 |
FEGEITOK: Thank you for this information. I will pursue it accordingly. On another note, how long does the AC run for with your Solar batteries and how many batteries do you rely on in powering the AC? |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by babadots: 8:20pm On Dec 04, 2022 |
rmx: This is one of the bigger VRF systems from Midea and it must be powering quite a few indoor units. Where did you import from and how many indoor units do you power from this? Was it easy getting these through the ports and did you have to travel abroad to purchase them yourself or did you order online? I think you have a lot to share with us on this, if you don't mind. |
