Room size is only the start
Ceiling height, insulation, glazing, sun exposure and the way you use the room all affect the capacity required. Ask the installer to explain their sizing recommendation.

IS A SPLIT SYSTEM RIGHT FOR YOU?
Comfort where you spend your time.
A split system connects an indoor unit to an outdoor unit. Reverse-cycle models provide both heating and cooling, making them an option for bedrooms, living areas and home offices.
A single unit is intended to condition its nominated space. Closed doors, long hallways and the layout of your home affect how well air reaches adjoining rooms.
For several rooms, compare separate splits with a multi-head system or ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning.
Placement makes a difference
Indoor airflow, outdoor-unit ventilation, bedroom noise and service access should all be considered before an installation position is agreed.
Compare heating and cooling performance
Look at the proposed model’s energy label and specifications. Running costs vary with weather, settings, electricity tariffs and use.
UNDERSTAND THE PRICE
What affects a split system installation quote?
Capacity & model
Unit size, efficiency, controls and features affect equipment pricing. Compare exact model numbers rather than brand names alone.
Access & pipework
Distance between units, wall construction, drainage and working at height can change the installation scope.
Power supply
The installer needs to assess the required circuit and any switchboard work. Ask whether electrical work is included.
Existing equipment
Removal, disposal and making good may be separate items. Confirm whether any existing pipework can appropriately be reused.
A site assessment may be needed before a company can provide a firm installed price.

Request my free quotes ↗Can a split system heat as well as cool?
Reverse-cycle split systems provide both heating and cooling. Check the specifications of the model quoted, because cooling-only models also exist.
What size split system do I need?
That depends on the space and its heat load. Give the installer room dimensions and information about windows, insulation and sun exposure. A site assessment helps establish an appropriate capacity.
Can one split system cool my whole house?
A single split is generally suited to one room or a connected area. For separate rooms or whole-home comfort, discuss multiple units, multi-head splits or a ducted system.
Which brands can I ask about?
You can ask participating companies about brands such as Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, Fujitsu and Panasonic. Available models and brands vary by company; include any preference in your enquiry.
How long does installation take?
Timing depends on access, the number of units, electrical work and any removal required. Ask the quoting company for an installation timeframe and confirm when equipment will be available.
Will I receive five quotes?
We refer your enquiry to up to 5 group-related companies. The number of quotes depends on availability and suitability for the job. This service does not compare the entire market or recommend a provider.
