Stan:nakedmolerat: I came across this brand at our community centre. I'm surprised how cheap it is and it works really really well. I must say I'm terribly impressed and on par with Fujitsu that cost 2 - 3x more. I don't know about reliability though as it is new.
I can only speak from my 7 years experience in the industry
I have never sold Gree but a retirement community in Hamilton the developer had fair few installed a few years later we pulled a whole lot of them out a few years later and replaced them with Fujitsus and the homeowners were much happier with there new units..
To say they are equivalent to fujitsu is like saying a Cherry car is equivalent to a Toyota. Cop, eer, noise compressor life support etc all better on any t1 brand
3 brand I would install in my own house: Daikin, Fujitsu and Mitsubishi.
I have heard that fijitsu are a good brand for heat pumps. My issue with buying a cheap brand, is that the install cost of either a cheap brand or a premium rand is likely to be around the same amount, it is just the hardware of the cheap one that is cheaper, so you are only saving on the hardware, and not the labour. Then if it doesn't last as long, it likely would have been cheaper to buy the more expensive hardware long term. Not sure about fuel efficiency and running costs on the cheap one vs the more expensive brands, but if you compare them to cars, the cheap chinese brands can be quite a lot less fuel efficient and many have lower safety ratings, than the premium brands, mainly because they are using older technology.In some case they are producing cars that were old models of premium brands, as they have purchased a license to produce those older models.
