About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
All of the 2.5kW and up units are discounted. Oddly enough, the 2.0kw unit is not, making it more expensive than the 2.0.
Units include installation, except that they require an electrical access point that must be pre-installed. I had this done a few years ago for ~£100 by a local electrician.

sorted byThis type of heat pump (yes it is a heat pump) are very efficient at cooling and heating; as long as you can change some mindset (forced air vs radiant) and ignore the many myths it is far better (and more efficient) than Air-To-Water heat pumps, but of course don't provide hot water.
2.5kw is a small system; it's really only suited for bedrooms (in a standard sized house) as it's there is less heat load during the night, and will be fine for heating in the summer. Any other room (bar possibly the bathroom) I would suggest 3.5kw.
I don't think this is a particularly good deal; it's NOT a bad deal, but a fair price. However, I suggest it's going to be better to seek a local installer, who will be best suited to look after you before, during and after install. Costco are subcontracting here, so you're paying a middleman (and granted will have some decent after sales)
A personal note; Daikin is historically is rated very good, and still considered to this day as "premium", and do provide decent warrantee periods to back this up. However, in recent year myself and others have seen an increase of issues with Daikin QC, cheap copper and PCBs, leading us to move away from them in favour of others; myself, I specify Panasonic, and can also recommend Mitsubishi Electric. I can't recommend Daikin any more, despite being my preferred brand in previous years. (edited)
PS - My units were 2.5KW Mitsubishi ones and cost £800 each including installation so this may not be a great deal unless prices have gone up significantly since I had mine. (edited)
Great for cooling in the summer (If we leave the two bedroom doors open it will cool down the whole house (Bungalow) pretty quickly, also good in the winter when you only want to heat the bedroom rather than stick on the central heating. The heat is much more instant with the air con units.
The wife uses them on the dehumidify setting too if she has clothes drying in the winter (Cheaper than the tumble dryer)
Being able to get a good nights sleep in the few warm days each year is worth every penny it cost us!
I'd imagine if you have solar these would be even greater value if you can run the cooling off the sun....
Could anyone kindly briefly explain how this would be installed in a front/street facing bedroom? Does the piping go from the bedroom ceiling, through the loft, and then out the back/side of the house?
we live in an end of terrace.
thanks in advance!
It does one bedroom. I am keen to do my other bedroom and lounge on a 2 x system going to one condenser.
I see you mentioned earlier about Panasonic being a good brand. Just wondering what your opinions are and which would offer the best warranty options? Also, rough ideas on cost? My existing MHI is first floor second bedroom, wall mounted condenser on the side of the house and around 1.5-2m of copper pipe.
To do the other bedroom and lounge would involve more copper and power cable and I would prefer to get a new power socket installed by an electrican than use the existing outside one my current AC uses. I have other circuits available, such as kitchen which is directly below the bedroom, would rather spread the load a little bit.
Would really appreciate your thoughts if you have the time. I see you are in Lincoln, I am just south of Cambs so slightly too far for you sadly.
Panasonic is a premium brand, and comes at a higher price point. Depending on what program the installer is part of, they can come with a 7-year warrantee.
I do feel, as an installer, that there is a noticeable uplift in quality.
Anybody tried to install AC by himself and then get GAS engineer for finishing touches and certification?
In any case, it's also a cheap source of heat - far more efficient than Air To Water, so not just for summer.
And this becomes the further we progress towards "net-zero" the less running AC will make any difference at all, because all energy taken will just be excess not normally used (but required for colder months)
It's a little nippy now, so rather than put the underfloor heating on we use this all the time. Even the company selling it told me to go for this as opposed to the 3.5kw.
Above all, somebody needs to see your house and room to make that assessment. I very rarely install 2.5kw systems other than in bedrooms because the price difference is small, and rather go that bit OTT to be sure the end result is a system that works.
Installers are also more of a premium here because of the lack of us
The brand isn't as good but it has been working fine for 4 years now so if you don't mind a bit of DIY I would look at going down that route.
Remember the one on offer here is 9k BTU which is half the cooling of what I managed to install for £775
This deal DOES include a wall mounting kit which is helpful to know.
Also, note that outside trunking is NOT provided. That is annoying as it looks much neater with it. It looks as though the condensate pumps would be included in this deal if needed which is good.
The five year parts warranty is impressive. A good deal, I am tempted, just a pain to have to get a sparky in first to get a power point put in. (edited)
Outdoor is best described as silent; they "wind up" when there is a high demand, but even then you'll struggle to hear it unless standing next to it.
Indoor noise is subjective but is adjustable, and something you come to live with without noticing.
Where would the outside bit for this get installed. Woudldn't want it on the back of the house overlooking the garden as its an eyesore, but not sure if your allowed to have it attached to the side of your house semi-detatched, have a parking spot next to the side of the house).
Or does it sit on the floor? Am half tempted. The "portable" one we have is a godsend but lord christ it's loud. (edited)
Is this deal national ?? (edited)
Ps. As an aside, Daikin are good units (edited)
Although with inconsistent weather I prefer to put it on manually. So 30 minutes before I walk down the garden to it.
