*if u want hottest sleeps in sweat, frustation, no value for money then defenatley buy for hottest summers CARRIER WINDOW AC "the worst AC ever". I purchased said AC model "Optima Plus D EQR" from Pinky Radios sector 35 chandigarh in feb-2005. what made me purchase carrier AC is that carrier deals only in AC and cooling systems and as they(dealer) said "carrier is world leader in AC". but to my surprise the performance of AC and the quality of service(Free & Paid) provided by company are worst.
the Compressor of said AC model failed in 1.5 year. when checked it was withdrawing 50 AMP current instaed of regular 9 AMP.
although compressor has 5 year worrnty, they charged RS 2500 for AC GAS with no assurance for how much period now onward AC will work
the starting of compressor takes more than 4 min although normal staring tine is 3 min.
fails to provide cooling even if u set it at 18 degree when outside temp is nearly 40 degree although company assures satisfactory cooling even at 52 degree
5.My father- in - law has celestia model of carrier window AC . its compressor has been replaced thrice in 2 seasons.
dealer failed to provide the free service in time
they lack skilled and well-mannered service personal
charge Rs. 250 to 300 only to come and touch AC(no repair)if u lodge any complaint with dealer
one has to make atleast 100 phone calls at 3-5 service centres to get service men in minimum 10-15 days
10. I will never purchase carrier AC neither will recommend it to any one
