Split-system Air-conditioning Installations
Heating and Cooling That Works All Year Round
A quality reverse-cycle split system delivers both cooling and heating from a single wall-mounted unit, without the complexity or cost of a full ducted setup. Modern units use a fraction of the energy of older models, and when paired with solar, your running costs can drop to almost nothing during daylight hours.
At Mountain Breeze, we assess your room size, layout, and insulation to recommend the right capacity for each space. Our licensed installers ensure a neat, professional fit with minimal disruption – and because we are also solar specialists, we can help you offset your air conditioning costs by tying into your existing solar system.
Why Choose a Split-System Air Conditioner
Heating and Cooling in One Unit
Reverse-cycle split systems provide efficient cooling in summer and powerful heating in winter - all from a single wall-mounted unit. No need for separate heaters and fans cluttering your space.
Energy Efficiency
Modern split systems are among the most energy-efficient ways to heat and cool a room. High-star-rated models use a fraction of the energy of older units, and when paired with solar, your running costs can drop even further.
Zone-by-Zone Comfort
Unlike ducted systems that condition an entire building, split systems let you heat or cool only the rooms you are using. This targeted approach avoids wasting energy on empty spaces.
Quick and Clean Installation
Split-system installations are straightforward and typically completed within a few hours. There is no need for extensive ductwork, ceiling modifications, or structural changes to your property.
Split-system Air-conditioning Installations - FAQs
What size split system do I need?
The right capacity depends on the room’s floor area, ceiling height, insulation, window size, and orientation. An undersized unit will struggle to maintain temperature, while an oversized one wastes energy. We measure and assess each room to recommend the correct capacity.
Can I run my air conditioner on solar power?
Yes. If your solar system is generating during the day, your split system can draw from that supply, significantly reducing or eliminating the running cost. This is particularly effective for daytime cooling in summer when solar output is at its peak.
How much does a split-system installation cost?
Pricing varies based on the unit’s capacity, brand, installation complexity, and whether additional electrical work is required. We provide a clear, fixed quote after assessing your property – no hidden costs.
How often does a split system need servicing?
We recommend a professional service every one to two years to keep the unit running efficiently and to maintain healthy air quality. Regular filter cleaning by the homeowner between services also helps maintain performance.
Do you install multi-split systems?
Yes. Multi-split systems connect multiple indoor units to a single outdoor compressor, which is ideal for properties where several rooms need climate control but outdoor space for multiple compressors is limited. We can advise whether a multi-split setup suits your property.
