Hi, we have just moved into the village and found we don't have a remote control for the air con. We can turn on at the unit on the wall and can set to cold or heat but no way of setting temps etc.

Have exactly the same problem after our move two weeks ago and very unhappy with situation..... and the office was only  just about helpful by suggesting we should buy a 'universal remote' from a hardware store! - I tried this and 25 euros later - it doesnt reognise the Trane model we have so was a waste of money and a lot of time going through 2000 codes !

Marco in sales Office says that there are some on order..... we are less than happy that this is the situation purchaseing a property with aircon / heating and no way of operating it and no-one seems to be bothered ..... has anyone found a universal remote that is universal enough to work our systems?

If you are looking to buy here at the moment - make a point of asking where the bloody remote is before handing over your money - maybe that will get it sorted!

I tried a couple of universal remotes and one didn't work at all and the other one worked intermittently.

In the end I went to TRANE the manufacturer of my A/C units and they sent me one, think it was about 20 euros. The contact there is angel_millan@trane.com and he speaks pretty good English.

I'm in phase 1 so not sure if the newer blocks use the same A/C units though (hope not because they are awful!)

... thanks for the reply, and eventually I have found one that works and typically its the cheapest one Ive tried!

I bought it from the Chinese Store in Sabinillas a few doors down from Mercadona..... cost me 6 euros! :-) ... and the first code I entered for Trane worked.... so finally sorted. Ive since seen the same model on Ebay too.

Its a small unit with

"1000 in 1

Universal A/C Remote"

at the top and the 'make' appears to be "CHUNGHOP" which is capitals at thh bottom of the unit

The model number is: K-1028E ... which is displayed just under the LCD screen.

Hope that helps anyone else who has had the same problem.
