Split System Air Conditioning Installation in Hervey Bay
A properly sized and installed air conditioner keeps your home comfortable year-round – cooling through long Hervey Bay summers and taking the chill off winter mornings with reverse-cycle heating. We handle the whole job, from helping you choose the right unit to installing it neatly and wiring it safely to your switchboard.
Choosing the right size
An undersized unit runs flat out and still struggles; an oversized one costs more to buy and cycles inefficiently. We look at each room’s floor area, ceiling height, insulation, windows and which way it faces, then recommend a capacity that suits. Bedrooms often suit a smaller unit, while open-plan living areas typically need a larger system or a multi-head setup.
Placement that works
We position indoor heads for even airflow – away from direct sun and not blowing straight onto beds or couches – and locate outdoor units where they’re accessible for servicing, sheltered where possible and considerate of neighbours. On the coast, we choose mounting and fixings suited to salt air.
Wired safely, every time
Every air conditioner needs a dedicated circuit and an outdoor isolator switch. As licensed electricians, we make sure the circuit, cabling and protection are correctly sized and that your switchboard can handle the extra load. If your board needs work first, we’ll tell you upfront.
Electrical and refrigerant work done properly
Installation of split systems is carried out by appropriately licensed technicians for both the electrical and refrigerant work, so the system is commissioned correctly and installed to the manufacturer’s requirements.
Keep it running efficiently
Clean the indoor filters every few weeks during heavy use, keep the outdoor unit clear of plants and debris, and book a periodic service. Pair your air con with ceiling fans and you can often set the thermostat a few degrees higher and still feel comfortable – saving on running costs.

Air Conditioning Installation FAQs
What size air conditioner do I need?
It depends on room size, ceiling height, insulation and sun exposure. As a guide, small bedrooms may suit around 2.5kW and large living areas 7kW or more. We’ll assess the room and recommend the right size.
Does an air conditioner need its own circuit?
Yes. Split systems should be installed on a dedicated circuit with an outdoor isolator so they run safely and don’t overload other circuits.
How long does a split system installation take?
A standard back-to-back installation is usually completed in a few hours. Longer pipe runs, multi-head systems or switchboard work can take longer.
Can I install a split system myself?
No. In Queensland the electrical connection must be done by a licensed electrician, and handling refrigerant requires a refrigerant licence.
Why does my air conditioner keep tripping the power?
Common causes include an overloaded or shared circuit, a faulty isolator, moisture in the connections or an internal fault. We’ll test the circuit and find the cause.
What is the most efficient type of air conditioner?
Modern inverter split systems are generally the most efficient for individual rooms. Look for a higher energy star rating and choose the right size for the space.
