Hi every one
I am only a tennant but have had trouble with my aircon. i have had 3 engineers out to look at it ( the compressor has seized) and without wanting to upset anyone all have said the same thing. It is unrepairable as " the units are illegal, as from the 01/01/2010".
from this date the gas they use is a type called R22 which is illegal now in Spain and throughout most of Europe, so therefore the only repair is to put a complete system in with the cheapest quote i have had is around the €3,000 mark.
I am passing this information on in case anyone knows different as i'm a computer engineer not an aircon geek, and to warn them of any possible heart attack if they get told the same thing as i have, and also if anybody knows if the units are still under warranty as i guess the whole estate have the same Aircon units installed, which as far as i work out they were installed when the legislation was already passed for the date of them becoming obsolete. By the way i'm trying to get hold of my owner to let them know .
thanks for reading this
