    Anyone care to recommend an air cond installer in Melb. or air conditioner brand? I need a 5Kw split unit. Tossing between a Choice recommended model (Daikin) and a China manufactured brand but Australian company (Domain). An installer recommended against the Daikin as it uses R32 refrigerant gas (more energy efficient) but apparently flammable and toxic.

    Keep in mind install costs a fair chunk, so i would go for a larger brand with a decent warranty, we have used Fujutsi, Panasonic, and Samsung in the past for various reasons (usually decent deals).
