Back down to a reasonable 29C today.
Feel sorry for the people that lost their houses in the hills. One of our guys at work lost his house in the Perth hills bushfire of a few years ago.
Yeh sure get shit up with shorts, used to do trucks and a few buses bak in uk, but lighter than the trucks here
If you have aircon let me know how it fares with the heat, also what brand it is, I'm coming up to buy new aircon soon.
Daikin, little more expensive ,serviced and backed up with there own tech's and installers
Yep, enjoying a warm 40+ for the next few days. Thankfully I'm working nights so it all good. Only one more day and I'm gonna be enjoying a few tinnies on the the beach.Quote:

A lot of people seem to recommend Daikin, I have a couple of old Fujitsu's and one Daikin, but the Daikin has cost me more in repairs that the Fujitsu's put together.Quote:

dont know much about ac units, i've had two houses with ducted, and the service when needed was fantastic, i think daikin manufacture all there own stuff, also had very good reports on Mitsubishi Heavy industries ac, and Panasonic, but can only comment on what i've had, not much help reallyQuote:
