Air conditioning offer

I visited last month and called in on a firm called Ilucom, which is situated just off of the AP7 on the poligona industrial estate, which is on the road between Los Alcazares and Torre Pacheco.

I spoke to Louise for a guesstimate of how much it would cost to air-con a two-bed apartment..

She gave me a copy of a quote for one they had done at Roda

Mitsuco, ducted a/c. Ducted 6.5 kw hot & cold for 2-bed apartment. Functional humidefail, low noise,R410A, 2 year guarantee, installed for a grand total of

Euro 1929.00

They have a website; www.ilucom.com

They also have a fantastic range of lighting and the showroom is dead easy to find.

6.5kw,  you better check your property has sufficient supply to cope with that. 3.3kw supply is standard. it should be on your tech spec.

Is that for whole apt or just living room

I didn't go into detail as it's too early yet (foundations aren't yet laid). I take it 6.5 kw is the heat OUTPUT, not power input?

That means the input will be even higher. With aircon you usually get what you pay for within reason. A good brand will usually be more efficient and will pay for the difference within a couple of years( a good quality system should last you at least 10 years of normal use). If you are renting out your property your renters are unlikely to turn off the aircon when they open the patio door etc etc.

Please note that I am not trying to persuade you to buy from another store but just ask the same company about some branded models and compare the consumption rates as well as the life expectancy especially if you are renting your property out. Also note that some companies i.e Fujitsu make ranges under other names that are the same on the inside just slightly different on the outside. Fujitsu makes Daitsu abit like Volkswagen make Seat (Leon is a Golf chasis with different body). Look out for these as they offer a great saving on good quality product.

Thanks HB all comments noted. Hopefully I'll be able to learn a lot more from my good neighbours on phases 1 & 2 and make my decisions based on their experiences as well.

All I know for sure is that air-con is as important in the summer as a roof over your head in the winter at Corvera

Just realised (dope or what), the aircon system at Corvera will be same as Roda i.e. Ducted.  This requires a different system which tends to be more expensive so check what you need.

Paul

I have had an offer from Corvera to purchase Air Condition But I find its very expensive is there anyone looking at buying as a group I would be interested. I am phase 11 menta for Dec 09. 

Hi Moll, we did have group interest previously, but as many purchasers are now not intending on completion I'm not sure who is still out there.  Maybe people will reply to this posting.  I'm on phase I and would be interested.

Anita.

Hi Folks, 

Thanks for the reply maybe we will get a responce again ,thats positive to go ahead as a group.

Hi Ron

Yes we would be interested in a bulk purchase.  The quote you have received seems good.  We are on Phase II for Dec completion.

Kenny

PLEASE ALL REMEMBER IT IS A DUCTED SYSTEM IT REQUIRES A SPECIFIC TYPE OF MACHINE.

Hi Folks, Following the first reply from Polarair. I thought I would try for a little extra dicount. Please see below the "E" sent and received over the past couple of days.. please let me know if you want to move ahead with this or look for other quotes. Can we get 20 owners to agree?
  Regards

  Ron

Gary, thanks for the inf..  Just a thought.  If I could get some Corvera owners together completing Phase 1/2 & 3 could you look a reduction in total cost?

             Regards

                Ron.

Hi Ron

Lets take a look at the whole issue.Covera are asking for 3387.00 for the 2/3 bedroom and  864.00 for the split second floor totaling

4251.00 euros,as I said we can offer both packages for the 3387.00,resulting in, as against their price ,you are getting the split upper floor free. The offer is for Fujitsu general brand,and Panasonic.We have already saved you 937.00 euros on their price,and with a far better product.

The only further saving we can make is  by using a lower quality priced product,what do you think your contacts would prefer ? If you think they are looking for a lower product let us know and we will look and see what we can do,I know we can get lower,but you are compromising quality

 

Regards Gary

 

 

 

Hi Gary, You make a good point..we do not what a lower quality but a extra 8/10% off the price for a bulk order would be nice.

             Regards

                Ron.

Hi HQ, I did receive a quote from another company.  Will post it when I can find it - hopefully later on today!

Anita.

Was the other company pctairconditioning?  I have had a quote and was less then the developers offer.  Will need a review when completion is required though.

icspain

Hi icspain, it was pctairconditioning - James Turney.  Just found my posting from previously.

Many thanks for your recent enquiry for our air conditioning services, it is always nice to receive new business for existing clients.
 
As discussed we have completed a great deal of work for clients on the existing Roda golf resort, and as such we are confident of the quality of the pre-installation work provided by your builder, and can quote on that basis, without a site survey, though this would be nice to do nearer the time, just to dot the i´s etc.
 
With the "ducted" system that you have had "pre-installed" in your apartments, basically there is an internal unit (evaporator), and an external unit (condenser).  the pre-installation is composed of the refrigerant pipework, interconnecting electrical cables, condensation tubing , and the ductwork in your house.  The beauty of this system is that as the homeowner, you do not see any machines (all you have is a small LCD control panel in the lounge) as the evaporator is installed in a false ceiling, and the condenser is positioned up on the roof.
 
The standard apartments on the original Roda site require 24,000 btus, to heat and cool the apartments, and we install General Inverter units for these apartments for 2400 euros.  An inverter is a device which improves the efficiency of your machine greatly, and thus saves you money over time.
 
We pride ourselves on our aftersales care, and we are second to none on our client relations.  We offer a four year guarantee on all our work, the majority of companies over here offer one or two years.  I understand that there are a few people looking to have this installed at the same time, and as such please refer them to my website so that they can get a better idea of where we are coming from as a company.  I am also open for offering a better deal should a confirmed number of people show interest in this, but this is just a preliminary email to touch base and start the ball rolling.

James also made the following comment

We find that if people want to contact us direct, and let us know that they are involved in the agreement, then they will all be treated equally.  As for deposits for multiple clients, and ordering multiple machines, this becomes unworkable, so it is best to have direct contact with me for all these, and i can liaise on a personal basis with all clients.

The prices given also include IVA and installation.

Definitely one to bear in mind.

Regards, Anita.




 

I am a 2 bedroom apartment on the first floor Pablo said the outside  unit would go on the roof but the roof above us is the penthouse.

I would expect the price for a 2 bed to be less than a 3 bed with split flooring. You can count me in on the bulk buying.

Anita

We have a 2 bed Magnolia villa.  Is the 2400 price for apartments only.  If you dont know then no worries, as I will contact direct, as this price seems good, esp with the 4 year warranty. 

Are you using them for your Phase I apartment ? 

Do you have contact email or tel. no for them ?
