Split System & Ducted Air Conditioning Brisbane
Expert installation, repairs & maintenance by licensed electricians. We supply and install — Panasonic, Mitsubishi Electric & Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.
How a Split System Actually Works
Two units. One purpose. Scroll to see how your home stays cool.
Indoor Unit
Outdoor Unit
Blows cool air
Compressor + fan
Refrigerant Lines
Copper pipes carry refrigerant between units — the circuit that transfers heat out of your home.
Power Connection
Our licensed electricians run a dedicated circuit to ensure safe, compliant operation every time.
Condensate Drain
A drain line removes moisture extracted from the air — critical to prevent water damage.
Smart Control
Modern systems connect to Wi-Fi for app control and scheduling — we set it up on installation day.
Split System Air Conditioning Brisbane
The most popular choice for Brisbane homes. A split system is a two-part unit — one indoor, one outdoor — perfect for cooling one or two rooms with precision and efficiency. Quiet, fast and surprisingly affordable.
- Ideal for bedrooms, living rooms, home offices
- Inverter technology — cheaper to run than old fixed-speed units
- Quiet operation — as low as 19dB (indoor unit)
- Heats and cools — year-round comfort for Brisbane winters too
- Fast installation — most jobs completed same day
- Smart Wi-Fi control available on Panasonic & Mitsubishi models
🏠 Wall-Mount Split
The everyday workhorse. Mounts high on an interior wall, blows cool air across the room. Available in 2.5kW to 9kW for any Brisbane room size.
🏘️ Multi-Head Split
One outdoor unit connected to 2–5 indoor heads in different rooms. Ideal for medium homes where ducted isn’t practical. Each room controlled independently.
📐 Brisbane Sizing Guide
Room size matters. Undersized = unit runs flat out. Oversized = short-cycles and humidity problems. We size every unit correctly before quoting.
Ducted Air Conditioning Brisbane
Whole-home comfort from a single system. Ducted air conditioning sits in your roof space and delivers conditioned air through ceiling outlets in every room. Invisible, powerful and the premium choice for Brisbane families.
- Cools or heats every room in your home simultaneously
- Completely concealed — no wall units visible anywhere
- Zone control lets you isolate unused rooms and save energy
- Smart control — app-based scheduling and temperature management
- Dramatically increases property resale value
- Perfect for new builds and major renovations
🏡 Whole-Home Systems
For 3-bedroom homes and larger. One powerful unit in the roof cavity delivers to all zones. Panasonic and Mitsubishi Electric lead the market for reliability in Brisbane’s climate.
🎛️ Zone Control
Don’t cool the rooms you’re not in. Zone controllers let you turn individual rooms on and off — bedrooms off during the day, living areas off at night. Saves 20–40% on running costs.
🏗️ New Builds & Renovations
The ideal time to install ducted is during construction. We work with builders and owner-builders across Brisbane. Duct layout designed to the floor plan for maximum efficiency.

-
Coil inspection and cleanEvaporator and condenser coils checked for dirt and mould build-up that hurts performance.
-
Drainage checkBlocked drains cause water damage inside walls. We clear and test the condensate drain every service.

Deep clean — mould and bacteria removed
If you’ve noticed a musty smell when your AC starts, that’s mould growing inside the unit. A deep clean goes further than a standard service — we disassemble the indoor unit and chemically sanitise every component.
-
Unit disassemblyIndoor unit fully removed and disassembled — cover, blower wheel, evaporator coil all separated.
-
Chemical treatmentHospital-grade anti-mould and antibacterial solution applied to all components. Safe for your family.

High-pressure rinseAll chemical residue and loosened contamination flushed clear. Drainage tested after.
-
Reassembly and testUnit rebuilt, run up and tested. Air quality measurably improved — unit smells clean.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything Brisbane homeowners ask before booking
A split system cools one room at a time — it has one indoor unit on the wall and one outdoor unit. Ducted air conditioning sits in your roof cavity and distributes conditioned air through ceiling outlets to every room in the house. Split systems are cheaper upfront (from $900 installed) and are ideal for individual rooms. Ducted is more expensive (from $6,500) but provides whole-home comfort, is completely hidden, and significantly adds to property value.
A standard single split system installation takes 2–4 hours. A multi-head split system with 2–3 indoor units takes 4–7 hours. A full ducted system typically takes 1–2 days depending on home size and roof access. All installations include commissioning and testing before we leave — we don’t hand over until the system is fully operational.
Brisbane’s hot climate means sizing matters more than anywhere in southern states. As a guide: bedrooms typically need 2.5kW, medium living areas 5–7kW, and large open-plan areas 7–9kW. But ceiling height, insulation, window size and sun exposure all affect the calculation. We assess every installation before quoting — an undersized unit will run constantly and still not cool the room properly.
We supply and install — you get one package price covering the unit, materials and labour. This simplifies the process, ensures the system is sized correctly, and means you have a single point of contact for warranty claims. We stock Panasonic, Mitsubishi Electric and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries — all premium brands with 5-year manufacturer warranties.
Ducted air conditioning in Brisbane typically costs $6,500–$18,000 fully installed, depending on the size of your home, number of zones, and roof access. A 3-bedroom home averages $8,000–$12,000. The best time to install ducted is during construction or a renovation when roof access is easy. We provide obligation-free quotes with a site inspection.
Annual servicing is recommended for all AC systems in Brisbane. Our humidity and dust levels are significantly higher than southern states, meaning filters and coils accumulate contamination faster. Annual servicing keeps your system efficient (dirty filters reduce performance by up to 30%), prevents water damage from blocked drains, and keeps your manufacturer warranty valid. Most warranties require evidence of annual servicing.
