Varies.Does anyone know if both internal & external AC units are individually connected to the mains?
Or is the internal unit fed power from the main external one?
I’ve had a look and a local AC fitter is offering the 3.5KW Mitsubishi Heavy Split System fully installed for £1000. Seems decent.
Seems a bit expensive as the Mitsubishi ones are £500 but I suppose this is ‘smart’?What does the panel think about this one? The room is only around 12.5m2 and so this will do round double that. It has smart integration and wifi.
Panasonic 3.5kW Wi-Fi Wall Mounted Inverter R32 - KIT-TZ35-WKE
The new TZ has a width of just 779mm. This allows for more installation possibilities, including the limiting space above a door. Ready to connect the unit to internet to be controlled by smartphone with Panasonic Comfort Cloud App. Control, monitor, easy schedule with easy interface. By...www.airconcentre.co.uk
What you want is to have similar temperature in linked rooms and 7000btu is just enough for that one room of 12.5m2. Moving from airconditioned room to one not cooled can be quite stressful and can give you all kind of health issues (headaches, dizziness, running nose etc). 7000btu would be a perfect match for something like garden office shed or a garage but it’s too weak for habitable space.What does the panel think about this one?

I think yes it's more expensive but it's because of the 'smart' functions. Cost wise, I haven't spoken to him recently but a year or so ago he was quoting around £1000 for a normal unit to be fitted (similar to your quote). He is not someone who would rip anyone off, very honest but I will get a proper quote from him.Seems a bit expensive as the Mitsubishi ones are £500 but I suppose this is ‘smart’?
ps Bob how much are you paying for installation please? (Pm if preferred )
Thanks for the input. It is only going in the bedroom as unfortunately most of my time is spent there. The room is slightly bigger but I have excluded the fitted wardrobes. Im a bit confused, haven't I linked a 12,000 BTU unit?What you want is to have similar temperature in linked rooms and 7000btu is just enough for that one room of 12.5m2.

Depending on your floor plan 9000btu-12000btu are usually the appropriate ac units for flats/houses.

9000btu or ~2.5kW would be fine for that size of room, but the unit you linked to will throttle down anyway so you’ll just be paying for extra capacity you don’t really need.What does the panel think about this one? The room is only around 12.5m2
For the price BOXT quoted for a 3.5kw Samsung unit, I could get 2x equivalent power Mitsubishi units fitted by a local independent fitter..3.5kW is a good size.
For a quick quote on a single unit supplied and fitted look at Boxt. They have an online quote system. They can’t do multi-split yet, sadly.
Thanks mate. I know the one I linked was a bit overkill, the one below is 2.5kw and 9,000 BTU covering 14m2. I would have preferred something inbetween but they only do the 2.5kw or 3.5kw. This is the one below and the price difference is £1009000btu or ~2.5kW would be fine for that size of room, but the unit you linked to will throttle down anyway so you’ll just be paying for extra capacity you don’t really need.
It’s a bit like putting a 60,000btu boiler in a house that only needs a 40,000btu boiler. It will work fine, but you’re paying for a bit of extra capacity you don’t need.
For £100 go with the 3.5kW option. It’ll cool the room marginally quicker.the price difference is £100
