Split systems
Split systems are effective, convenient, and highly efficient for cooling single spaces. Or if you’d prefer to have a split system throughout the entire home (rather than ducted), we can look at installing a multi-split for you, with multiple wall-mounted units, each individually controlled.
We recommend and install a range of gold-standard split systems from Panasonic, Daikin, and Mitsubishi. Every split system we install has reverse cycle technology, allowing it to both cool and heat.
The systems we install also have modern inverter technology that reduces energy costs, and makes for a quieter system.
Ducted systems
Ducted systems are better suited to larger homes, offering greater efficiency for big spaces, and a finite level of control over the system.
Because a ducted system typically covers most of a building, the ducting is directed to areas that are commonly used (e.g. living area, master bedroom), which creates zones for each area. These zones can be turned off when not in use, which can help to save a huge amount of power over long periods. With the right system, you can even control the temperature individually for each zone.
Ducted air conditioners are highly desirable systems that can even increase the value of your home.
Commercial
Our commercial air conditioning installs can be either split or ducted systems, including central plant units, hydronic systems, rooftop package units, and cassette or bulkhead units. After a quick site visit and chat with you about your needs, we’ll recommend the system that best suits your office.
Commercial installs typically need custom electrical work, and as qualified electricians, we’ll complete the whole job for you, without the need to hire extra people.
This includes installing brand new circuit boards, reviewing the wiring throughout the property, and more. We can handle it all!

FAQs - Air con installation Brisbane
Will the air conditioning installation change my property?
If you’re having a split system installed, the only difference to your property will be the units themselves. Indoor units for split systems are mounted on the wall, and the outdoor unit is placed outside, in a discreet location.
For ducted systems, the indoor unit is usually installed in the ceiling cavity, and the outdoor unit placed outside. A ducted system delivers air through vents through the home, which are the only visible changes to the property.
Can I choose the vent positions?
We’ll usually recommend the best locations for vents, but if you have preferred positions for them, we’ll try our best to accommodate.
Where are the units placed?
For split systems, the indoor units(s) are mounted on the wall, and the outdoor unit is placed outside away from any living areas.
For ducted systems, the indoor unit is usually placed in the ceiling cavity, and the outdoor unit is placed outside.
How long is the warranty for my new air conditioner?
Air conditioning manufacturers offer a 5-year warranty for their product, and we offer a 5-year warranty on the install itself.
How often will I need to maintain my air conditioner?
We recommend cleaning your air conditioner’s filters every three to six months. This helps to reduce the amount of dust and dander that is blown around your property, and reduces the electrical usage of the system (it doesn’t have to work as hard when clean). In addition to this, try to keep any leaves and debris away from the outdoor unit.
As for professional servicing, we recommend that you have this completed annually to keep things running smoothly. The last thing you want is a breakdown during the height of summer! We provide air conditioning servicing for systems of every type, check out our service page for more information.
I already have air conditioning—how can I lower my electricity costs?
With rising energy costs in Australia, it’s important to reduce your AC’s electricity consumption whenever you can. You can try the following handy tips:
- Increase the temperature—Ergon Energy estimates that every additional degree on your air conditioner uses about 10% more electricity. So by changing the setting from 23°C to 24°C in summer, you could be saving money.
- Clean your air filters regularly—this makes the system more efficient, and reduces energy costs.
- Set a timer—when you’re using the AC while sleeping, try setting a timer so that it turns off at the coolest part of the night.
- Turn on ceiling fans—a ceiling fan can provide additional cooling and allow you to increase the temperature setting on your AC to compensate.
How we recommend the right air conditioning system for you
Recommending the ideal air conditioner takes knowledge and experience, and is determined by a number of factors. We consider the following:
- The amount of cubic space you want to cool
- The number of rooms/zones you want to cool
- The property’s floor plan and structure
- The material used for the property
- Whether there’s enough space in the ceiling cavity
- The number of people typically in the building
- The purpose of each room
