YOUR LOCAL MELBOURNE ELECTRICIAN
Split System Air Conditioners
Stay cool in summer and warm in winter with quiet, efficient reverse-cycle split systems.
Our team pairs a licensed electrician with a licensed refrigeration mechanic on every job, and we’ve been installing split systems across Melbourne for 20 years—tidy, compliant, and sized properly for your room.
At a glance (why a split system?)
• Efficient cooling + heating (reverse-cycle) for year-round comfort
• Fast, quiet operation with modern inverter compressors
• Targeted room control—bedroom, living, home office, studio
• Lower running costs than many ducted or portable options for single spaces
• Neat installs with minimal disruption, handled by an electrician and refrigeration mechanic
Brands we trust
We primarily supply and install Daikin and Mitsubishi because they’re reliable, efficient, quiet, and well-supported in Australia. If you already have a unit, we can install that too provided it meets compliance requirements.
AirCon Install
What our electricians install
Single split systems
(one indoor, one outdoor) in bedrooms, living areas, and offices
Multi-split systems
(one outdoor, multiple indoors) where outdoor space is limited
Back-to-back installs
(indoor and outdoor on opposite sides of the wall) or longer runs as needed)
Smart/Wi-Fi control setup
(setup, timers, and simple remotes)
Electrical works
(dedicated circuit where required, outdoor isolator, compliant cabling and protection)
Supply options (your unit or ours)
• Supply & install: We recommend a matched Daikin or Mitsubishi model sized to your room, ceiling height, and glazing.
• Install only: If you’ve chosen a specific unit, we’ll handle the compliant installation and commissioning.
Quick sizing guide (approximate)
• Up to 15 m² (bedroom/home office): ~2.0–2.5 kW
• 15–25 m² (small living/large bedroom): ~3.2–3.5 kW
• 25–35 m² (medium living): ~4.6–5.0 kW
• 35–50 m² (large living/open plan): ~6.0–7.1 kW+
Actual size depends on insulation, windows, ceiling height, and sun exposure. We’ll size it properly on site so you get fast, quiet comfort without over- or under-spec.
Single vs multi-split (which suits you?)
• Single split: best performance and value for a single room; simplest install and service.
• Multi-split: one outdoor unit drives multiple indoor units—great when balcony or ground space is limited. We’ll match compatible indoor units per the manufacturer’s pairing tables and your layout.
What’s included in a typical install
• On-site assessment and clear quote
• Indoor unit mounted and leveled; core hole drilled and sealed
• Refrigerant pipework, interconnect cable, and drain line neatly routed
• Outdoor unit on wall brackets or slab, with anti-vibration pads
• Licensed electrician installs any required dedicated circuit and weatherproof isolator
• Licensed refrigeration mechanic performs pressure testing, evacuation, charging/commissioning
• Run-up test, user demo (modes, filters, app), and tidy clean-up
Placement tips (for comfort and quiet)
• Bedrooms: place the indoor unit to avoid direct draft over the bed; choose a quiet model.
• Living areas: clear throw across the room; avoid blowing straight at seating.
• Outdoors: allow airflow around the outdoor unit; avoid blocking paths or neighbour windows.
Upgrades that make a difference
• Wi-Fi/app control for remote start, schedules, and energy tracking
• High-efficiency models (R32 inverter) for lower running costs
• Condensate pumps when gravity drainage isn’t possible
• Surge and RCD/RCBO protection at the switchboard where appropriate (electrician-installed) Looking after your split system
• Filters: vacuum/rinse monthly in peak seasons
• Indoor coil and drain: periodic clean prevents odours and blockages
• Outdoor unit: keep leaves and obstructions clear for airflow
We can schedule routine servicing so your system stays efficient and quiet.
Answering your questions
FAQs
Can you install where there’s no existing power or cabling?
Yes. Our electrician runs the required circuit and isolation switch as part of the job.
How long does installation take?
Many back-to-back installs are completed the same day. Complex runs or multi-splits may take longer—we’ll outline this in your quote.
Do you remove and replace older units?
Yes. We can decommission and responsibly dispose of the old unit, then install your new Daikin or Mitsubishi.
Will a split help with winter heating?
Absolutely—reverse-cycle heating is efficient and fast, and often cheaper to run than resistive or portable heaters.
Can I choose the exact indoor style?
Yes. Wall-mounted is most common, but there are floor consoles and bulkhead options. We’ll advise what fits your space.
Service area & timing
Based in Richmond, our electricians and refrigeration mechanics service inner-Melbourne and surrounding suburbs. Many single-room installs are same day with minimal disruption.
