Scope of work & pricing

What your quote covers, and what shapes the price

No line-item surprises. This is the scope we quote against, and the variables that push a job up or down.

What this service includes

  • A mounting review covering the wall, the outdoor spot and the refrigerant line path
  • Inverter indoor head and outdoor unit from Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric or Fujitsu
  • Refrigerant lines concealed in the wall cavity wherever the structure allows
  • Condensate drained properly to an eave or stormwater point
  • Slab or wall bracket for the outdoor unit where the site needs one
  • Power connected to an existing outlet or a new dedicated circuit
  • Vacuumed and charged to the manufacturer specification
  • Remote handover, a run-through of the controls and warranty registration

What moves the price up or down

  • The capacity of the indoor head, from 2.5kW up past 8kW
  • Whether one head or several share the outdoor unit
  • How far the refrigerant lines have to run
  • A wall bracket for the outdoor unit adds labour and materials
  • What the wall is made of, and how high the install sits
  • Powering from an existing outlet versus running a new circuit
  • Any strata or heritage hoops to jump through
  • Installing outside business hours or on weekends

Not included (quoted separately if needed)

  • Plaster repair where the indoor head mounting calls for it
  • Repainting once the install is done
  • Lodging strata paperwork (we supply the specs, you lodge)
  • Core-drilling through brick or masonry beyond a standard penetration
  • Decorative line covers, priced separately
  • Ongoing annual servicing, available as a maintenance plan

How it works

From first call to handover

  1. 01

    Site visit & match

    We look at the room, the wall and the outdoor options, then recommend a model that fits the space rather than overshooting it.

  2. 02

    Booking

    A single head is typically in by the end of the day. Three or four heads usually take a day and a half to two.

  3. 03

    Installation

    Head on the wall, outdoor unit on its bracket or slab, lines hidden through the cavity and the drain run to the eave.

  4. 04

    Commissioning

    System vacuumed and charged to spec, controls demonstrated, warranty lodged.

Frequently asked

Common questions about split system air conditioning

How much does a split system cost installed?

A single-head split typically runs $1,800 to $3,200 installed depending on capacity and the pipe run. A three-head multi-head system usually lands between $5,500 and $8,500. The price is fixed before work starts.

What size split system do I need?

As a rough guide, 2.5kW suits a bedroom, 3.5kW a study or small living area, and 5kW to 7.1kW a main living space. We confirm sizing against the room, insulation and sun exposure before we quote.

Should I get single splits or a multi-head system?

If you want two to four rooms conditioned and outdoor space is limited, one multi-head outdoor unit is tidier and often cheaper to run than several singles. For one or two rooms, individual splits stay the simple answer.

How quiet are modern split systems?

Premium inverter heads run at 19 to 24 decibels on low fan, quieter than a whispered conversation. We size systems so they spend most of their time on low, where they are quietest and most efficient.

Can you install where there is no ceiling cavity?

Yes. Splits need no ducting, which is why they suit older homes, apartments and extensions where ducted is not practical.
