Split system installation in Bentleigh East

Bentleigh East is the sprawling one — the largest of the Bentleighs by a fair way, stretching from the GESAC leisure centre out toward East Boundary Road, with a broader mix of housing than its neighbour: interwar bungalows, a lot of post-war brick, and a growing share of rebuilds and townhouses on the bigger blocks. That range means the work varies more here. The interwar double-brick homes bring the usual core-drilling and careful routing, while the post-war brick homes are a bit more forgiving and often just need a clean back-to-back or short run. A lot of the post-war stock is on its second round of heating and cooling, so replacements are common, and the switchboards generally need a look before they'll take a reverse-cycle load. The blocks out here are larger than in Bentleigh proper, so siting the outdoor unit isn't as tight, and there's room to route neatly. On the rebuilds and renovated homes with open-plan glassy extensions, we size to the volume and plan any upstairs run. Bentleigh East's inland with no coast, so it's clean distribution and sizing for hot summers with west sun on plenty of homes. It's a solid family suburb, and we plan each job to the era and layout of the home in front of us.

Why Bentleigh East homeowners choose Bellair

Bentleigh East is about twenty-six kilometres north-west of our Botanic Ridge base. The work here spans core-drilling on the interwar bungalows, replacements and switchboard upgrades in the post-war brick homes, and multi-heads and upstairs runs in the rebuilds. Matt's got 28 years in the trade and holds ARCtick licence AU 55218, so the refrigerant work is by the book. Every install carries the full manufacturer warranty plus our 7-year workmanship warranty. We install Mitsubishi Electric, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, Samsung, Haier and LG, and we'll match the system to the home rather than push a brand. Fixed price agreed before we start.

What's included in your Bentleigh East install

A Bentleigh East install covers supply of your chosen unit, fitting to AS/NZS 3000, neat back-to-back or routed pipework, condensate drainage, electrical connection, old unit removal and recycling, commissioning and clean-up. On the interwar bungalows we allow time to core-drill and route neatly, and on the post-war homes we check the older switchboard on a replacement. It's all in the fixed price agreed up front, with any upgrade flagged before you commit. If your place sits on one of the streets near GESAC or the East Boundary Road edge we allow for the bigger blocks and pick the outdoor unit position so it stays clear of any pool pump or garden shed run.

Matt and his team are exceptional. I sent a message Saturday morning, I received a text message and a phone call, and a site visit by 11am. I am not use to such high customer service. Matt tried to have my install done asap as we had no heating. Install was also exceptional, as his pricing and quality of install and removal of old unit is beyond expectations. Was not an easy job but his quote was so honest and fair. I can hardly notice the outside cabling (first photo). He was also so polite, professional and caring. Thank you Matt and team. Will contact shortly for further split systems install. I will only contact your company in the future. Also, your system recommendation has been amazing. Many, many thanks for everything.

Communication with Matt was seamless and transparent. He came to inspect my place prior for a quick chat and to issue an estimated quote not long after. We eventually had a date fixed for two units to be installed. One required replacement of the previous old unit (included removal from property), and the second required a new hole to be drilled for installation. Matt and his team took roughly 3.5-4h. They were immaculate with their work! They left my place decently clean. I would have to say that this was the best customer service that I have had. Everything was discussed clearly, and my questions were addressed appropriately by Matt. I would highly recommended them if you are still considering! Thank you very much, Matt and your boys!

We recently had Samsung multi-head, multi-room split reverse cycle air conditioners installed throughout our home by Bellair, and we could not be happier with the outcome. Matt and his team completed the installation to the highest workmanship standards, with exceptional attention to detail and immaculate quality throughout the entire project. The finished result looks incredibly neat, professional, and well thought out. What truly stood out was Matt’s professionalism and communication at every stage of the installation. He kept us informed throughout the process, demonstrated outstanding competence and technical expertise, and delivered a flawless end result. It is clear that Matt and his team genuinely take pride in their work and customer satisfaction. I would highly recommend Bellair to anyone looking for high-quality air conditioning installation services.

Highly recommend Bellair! Matt and the team installed a ducted heating and cooling system at my clinic in Frankston and the whole experience was fantastic from start to finish. Professional, reliable, great communication, and the quality of work was excellent. Matt was an absolute pleasure to deal with and made the whole process so easy. Could not be happier with the result!

Matt did an excellent job installing our new Mitsubishi Electric heating and cooling system. He was professional, punctual, and took the time to explain everything clearly. The installation was completed to a high standard, and the work area was left clean and tidy. We're very happy with the result and appreciate the added peace of mind from the 5-year Mitsubishi Electric manufacturer warranty and 7-year Bellair workmanship warranty. Highly recommend Matt and the Bellair team.

FAQ

Common Questions About Split Systems

Most of our fixed-price split system installs fall between $1,690 and $1,890, depending on the unit, the size of the room and how the pipework needs to run. You get the all-inclusive price up front before we start — no surprises.
As a rough guide, a small bedroom suits a 2.5kW unit, a typical living room 5–6kW, and a large open-plan space 7kW or more. We measure properly during the site visit and size honestly so the system isn't over- or under-powered.
A standard single-head split system is usually done in 3–4 hours. Multi-head systems and trickier pipe runs can take most of a day. We'll give you a realistic time frame with your quote.
We supply and install Australia's most trusted brands — Mitsubishi Electric, Fujitsu, Haier, Samsung, Toshiba, Panasonic and LG. Every unit comes with a full manufacturer warranty plus our own 7-year workmanship guarantee.
We cover 190+ suburbs across the Mornington Peninsula, Bayside, South-East Melbourne, the inner east and the CBD. Chances are we've already done a job in your street — check our service areas below.
We recommend a service once a year to keep it running efficiently. We clean filters, check gas levels and test performance so your system lasts longer and runs cheaper.
