I've got one Haier and three Panasonic. The Panasonics seem very noisy when running compaired to the Haier, luckily the neighbours are some distance away.

Just something else I have thought of, ensure that the a/c unit is not directly wired into the electrics in the property and you have a plug you can pull out of the wall.
I had an a/c unit installed many years ago and the installer thought they did a neat job by not having any wires showing. When the circuit board in the unit when wrong it would automatically turn itself on/off at anytime, would pump out unregulated hot or cold air and there was no way to quickly turn the machine off.

We had 3 Sharp units installed in January 2003 and they are still going strong.

Thanks folk I appreciate that, admin just one thing there you said : I had an a/c unit installed many years ago and the installer thought they did a neat job by not having any wires showing. When the circuit board in the unit when wrong it would automatically turn itself on/off at anytime, would pump out unregulated hot or cold air and there was no way to quickly turn the machine off.:
Could you not just turn it off from Remote.?
Someone mentioned Giatsu anyone ever use them or know anybody who does.

Once the circuit board went the a/c unit became unresponsive to input from the remote control. There was a reset button under the front panel where the filters are, but that had no affect.

I would not recommended Giatsu. Mine is noisy also on heat when it reaches the desired temperature it to off and you have to wait quite a while before it comes back on.
I bought a unit from Carrefour which I prefer. There own make.
I think the best make is Mitsubishi heavy industries. Very quiet.

We had 2 new Giatsu units fitted last year. Very efficient, and not noisy at all.
