Air-conditioning installation tricky extra long pipe make money flicker you

Prof. Zhang bought a brand air conditioner and installed it for free shipping. Before the installation, the workers said that the original pipe between the air-conditioning indoor unit and the host was not long enough, and it required an additional 1 meter of pipe, which would cost 120 yuan. When the workers were constructing, Professor Zhang discovered that the neighbors had the same brand of air conditioners installed in the same location but did not add them. Is there "dirty" here?

The tube is not long enough and more than a hundred

At 10 o'clock yesterday, after receiving a phone call from Prof. Zhang, the reporter, as a student, came to the home of Professor Zhang’s living quarters in a university faculty. At this time, the air conditioner has been installed. Professor Zhang and several neighbors are blocking three air conditioner installers and will not allow them to leave: "You must let your leaders come to explain and explain. What is the matter?" And the three workers face Twilight, without saying a word.

It turned out that a few days ago, Professor Zhang spent more than 3,000 yuan to order a certain brand of air conditioners. On May 19, air conditioners were delivered to their homes and they were agreed to be installed on the morning of May 21.

On the morning of May 21, three installers came to Professor Zhang’s home. Professor Zhang asked them to place the air-conditioning indoor unit in the corner of the living room and place the main unit on the platform outside the window. One of the workers visually measured the distance and told Professor Zhang: "The original pipe between the air-conditioning indoor unit and the host is not long enough. It costs 120 yuan and 1 meter of pipe." Professor Zhang did not think much and agreed.

It's better than not knowing what to do

When the three workers were constructing, Professor Zhang went to the neighbors downstairs and found that the air conditioner bought by neighbors during the May Day period was exactly the same as the brand they had bought, and was installed in the same location. The neighbor told him: "Our home air conditioning installation, the original tube is long enough, do not need to add 120 yuan to buy the tube!"

“The structure of the house upstairs and downstairs in this unit of our building is the same. According to the design of civil engineering, the corner of the living room and the platform outside the window are the location of the air-conditioning indoor unit and the main engine, and the upstairs and the downstairs. Distance should also be similar.” Zhang said: “The same brand of the original model with the same type of air conditioning should also be the same as the original tube, why do you want me to spend 120 yuan to buy the tube, there must be a problem? Have intentionally let consumers More money buying accessories."

Workers helplessly expose the industry

The reporter took advantage of the window sill to see that the air conditioner between Professor Zhang’s home Xin’an and the indoor unit and the host computer had grown more than the air-conditioner of the neighbor’s house downstairs, and the extra part had been entangled into a small circle by workers. Tied to an expansion bolt nailed to the wall.

Under the suspicion of everyone, a worker bowed down and admit: “We installed air-conditioners and started construction at high places every day. It is very dangerous. The basic salary is very low. Bonuses are mainly extracted from the profits of customers selling pipes and selling accessories. This is also the leadership acquiescence. Yes, we just don't allow us to be too explicit. It's not easy for us to find a job. We don't need Doan's 1 meter pipe."

“You just do it by deceiving consumers!” After listening to these words, Prof. Zhang, who has always been earnest and earnest, was even more angry and continued to call the air-conditioning service contractor. Soon after, the head of the installation team apologized for the door and promised. No longer deceive consumers, Professor Zhang gave up.

Link 10 meters air conditioning pipe profits far greater than air conditioning profits

According to relevant reports, the escalating vicious competition has brought the profits of household electrical appliances to a relatively low level, so manufacturers and after-sales service contractors have been forced to change their tricks to make money, and they have played an important role in installing accessories and become rules. Behind the overwhelming price-reduction advertisement is the installation fee that cannot be bargained for. There is even a saying that the profits of a 10-meter air-conditioning pipe are much larger than those of air-conditioning.

In the same way, the exhaust pipe diameter of the exhaust hood is not uniform, and the consumer is forced to expand the wall hole during installation. The cost is thus incurred - the brick wall is reamed 50 yuan/time or more, and the reinforced concrete is reamed. 100 yuan / time or more; a washing machine dedicated mixer and water pipe may offer 180 yuan, and if the water inlet pipe of the washing machine is compatible with the home water pipe, more than ten dollars will be able to get; water heater factory standard is usually only a smoke pipe and A shower, and to complete the installation of water heaters, all kinds of outlet pipes, inlet pipes, extension pipes, elbow accessories, everything needs to save money. There is also a situation where household appliances are "opened for sale". For example, flat-panel TVs do not have a pedestal, a rack, or an HD cable.

A person in the legal profession stated that although consumers are fooled by fraud, the current laws and regulations have not yet regulated the installation fees and the Consumers Association cannot do anything about it. However, according to the current law, when the business is selling, the actual charging items that may appear in the installation should be clearly stated to protect the consumers' right to know.
