Hello all,

I have been having non stop problems with my Hitachi 1.2 ace since 2 months. I have been getting a very very bad/foul smelling odour from the AC after few mins of usage. I called the Service centre guys they came and just cleaned the filter, grill, drain pipe etc but still the smell exists. I myself cleaned the AC interiors but no use. The best part is the service guys are coolly saying use a perfume. I was like WTF!

Please suggest me what to do ASAP guys since the smell is not letting my family (especially my kid) sleep peacefully.

Thank you in advance for taking time to read and reply.
 
A Google search says development of mould on the evaporator coil seems to cause this. More so, a lower temperature or moisture can facilitate the growth of moulds. Have you asked the Hitachi engineers to clean the innards of the indoor unit?

Where are you located?
 
@Gannu thanks for the reply, I told them to clean everything and it seemed like they did it but am not sure if they actually did it. I myself have taken the ac cover apart and cleaned the grill and drain pipe but no use... I am located in Chennai.
