Split System Installations

A good installation lays the foundation for how the system performs for years. We approach split system installation by looking at the room itself: how heat builds, where airflow travels, and how the unit will be used.

We assess the space, recommend a system that suits the load, and install it with a clean finish. Once in place, we test performance and walk you through how to get the most out of it.

What is a split system air conditioner?

Split systems air conditioners are considered top-tier when it comes to easy installation and energy efficiency.

It’s a climate control system consisting of two components: an indoor unit mounted on a wall and an outdoor unit. Split air conditioning systems are energy efficient, can control room temperatures, and are known for their quiet operation. They are also more affordable than most ducted systems and an ideal choice for smaller homes.

Frequently asked questions

We know choosing the right electrician to install your split system can be hard - we're here to make it simple with answers to frequently asked questions.


Is a split air conditioner suitable for my home?

Split systems are ideal for single rooms or open-plan areas. They are a great option if you’re looking to control the temperature in specific spaces without the expense of a full ducted system. With proper maintenance, split AC can even last for 10-15 years.

What sizes are available for split systems?

Split systems come in various capacities, typically ranging from 2.5kW to 9kW. The appropriate size depends on the room's dimensions, insulation, and sun exposure. Our experts can help you select the perfect size for your space.

How often should I service my split system?

To maintain efficiency, it’s recommended to service your split system every 6 to 12 months. Regular servicing includes cleaning filters, checking refrigerant levels, and inspecting components for wear.

Can split systems heat my home as well?

Yes, most split systems are reverse-cycle air conditioners, meaning they can both cool and heat your home, making them a versatile year-round solution.

Can I control my split system with a smartphone?

Many modern split systems come with Wi-Fi capability, allowing you to control them remotely via a smartphone app. This feature is perfect for managing your home’s temperature while you’re away.

Should I get a split system or evaporative cooling?

Split systems suit room-by-room control, while evaporative systems are better for whole-home airflow.

How do I know what size split system I need?

It depends on room size, insulation, and sun exposure. We assess the space and recommend a system that matches the load.

How much do split systems typically cost?

Costs depend on the system and installation requirements. We provide upfront pricing so you know where things stand before work begins.
