    DO NOT install this piece of ______ if replacing it with another system. Spent over 3 hours trying to install it. Nothing lines up and you have to completely remove all covers before installing it. This is coming from a professional HVAC company.

    Hello people, I am writing this review after using Hitachi AC for almost 10 months. I have been using IFB, Carrier and Lloyd also. But Hitachi has been the worst of all. The customer experience, the technicians and the staff are the worst of all. They are charging money for gas leakage even if the product is in warranty. No other company charges like it. The blower started making noise after 6 months of usage. Worst worst experience with Hitachi. Would rather choose IFB out of all.

      Hello friends. I Ramakant ** from Agra. I have purchased Hitachi split AC in March 2024 and after 1 season it stopped working. After sale service is very poor. No one from service center receive your call. Also behaviour of staff including technician, service center manager and other senior managers is very rude. So, in nut shell I would like to say that the performance and aftersale service of Hitachi AC is worst. If you purchase Hitachi you will definitely going purchase a headache for you.

Quality of material fitted in Online product was very worst. Poor quality of product assembled from Hitachi. No more Hitachi product in my home anymore.

      Improve your service, don't depend on third-party service center, hire your own expert technicians. Your technicians doesn't know about how to install inverter and noninverter AC, teach them before sending them to customer's home.

Customer care just like computer repeating one thing since last 3-4 days that it will be resolved, they are not transferring the call further higher authorities to talk. Worst decision to buy these brand product.
