I got an offer for a 2 year old samsung 32D450+ V guard stabiliser worth 1700+ Airtel DTH (Don't need this) for 21000 Is it a good deal? New one is available in Tradus for 25k http://shopping.indiatimes.com/electronics/32-inches/samsung-lcd-serises-32d450/10238/p_B750837

Do you think a chimney of more than 1000m3 of suction will make a significant difference when compared to this? You have your exhaust fan on inverter! I forgot to mention, the hall+kitchen setup is air conditioned, are there exhaust fans which will work in air conditioned rooms without...

Deleted post.

Actually, the sink and cooktop were at the ideal positions and we shifted it for convenience/vastu/who know what (Forgot why we shifted). What is the need of exhaust fan backup? To provide more suction power or to serve the purpose when the chimney fails? Don't you think it will look nicer...

I have time but the thing is this is more like our second house where we will cook occasionally (read 4 or 5 meals a week) and we will start cooking from June. This chimney is more of a cosmetic addition, again I am doing this only for the looks and if there is a better looking solution I am for...

You know why? :) If I move it higher I will be able to use the window. From your post I understand I should not move. Is it ok If I place it less than 1.5 feet will it be inconvenient when cooking? (IF I cannot move it up and use the window I may well move it down for better suction. ) Will...

Also, the recommended height is 2.5 feet from the countertop. Can I place the chimney a bit higher than that, say 0.5 or 1 feet?

Will stick to Aluminium then.

This ad is given in TN newspapers too and the max temperature shown is 46 degrees. Ogeneral non-inverter models can work upto 52 degrees though.

Do you think a rectangular PVC pipe will look more desirable than Aluminium? Out of all material which is more durable? Will shop for this and let you know how this went.Just contacted few dealers and all are quoting the same 750rs for 4",10' feet. They don't have 6" aluminium tubes. I called...

Points noted. Would be great if someone who used aluminium could comment how it fared. Since this is open kitchen looks are even more important! Is it available in hardware shops or what kind of shops stock them? "It's stretchable" Ah, I see. The length of the pipe (packed in a cardboard...

What about looks? Will the PVC setup looks less desirable than Aluminium? I have this chimney http://www.naaptol.com/electric-chimneys/glen-st-gl-6001-ss-pb-bf/P/46358.html

Yes, Cost is one reason, this particular ac will be used sparingly and did not make much sense to spend more. Another reason is Daikin inverter AC was few shade darker than non-inverter and did not suit the wall colour. (Redoing the interiors and hence this much obsession)

I have bought a Chimney and installation guy came today and explained the procedure. He did not install today as some prior carpentry work has to be done. I was told that I will be charged 1300 for the aluminium exit pipe. It's dimensions are 4" diameter and 10' length and it looks like I...

Thanks, Will upload pics soon! Attached pictures. 1. First one is the copper pipe and drain pipes bought by the Daikin installer. My regular installer told me that good quality/full roll will be wrapped in a sheet and not exposed like this. I am not sure of what he meant exactly. 2...

Thanks for all the suggestions. Went for Daikin 1.9 2 star Ac for the bigger room and installed a old 1 tonne Ogeneral split in the smaller room. Daikin costed 37000 (inclusive of 5 KVA premier stabiliser and installation) in Ratna Fan house in Chennai and installation material costed 4000rs...

What I said was oversizing as suggested by you is probably the way to go. I spoke to two engineers who are into commercial construction and they suggested me to oversize exactly like you.

I think this is the tried and tested old school method. Bifocals were advertised few years ago as the " new thing" few years ago but they have been around for decades. The one con I see with OG apart from the price is their service. I never had to use it but every technician I meet/ Dealer...

Why do you think Sharp will not perform when we do 1500+ hours a year? Almost all AC's in offices will do those and more. I have OG and love it but I hate overpaying!, at the same time if it's worth it I don't mind paying. Can you elaborate on how OG is superior to say Sharp. If we compare...

Agreed, we have a 1.5 ton window OG for the past 2.5 years and it never gave any trouble. I had it running 24*7 for 2 weeks continously (Probably it was switched off for about 30 minutes a day) last month and it performed like a star. But right now I am pitting OG against other brands to see...
