Split system installation in Botanic Ridge

Homevale Drive is our own street, so Botanic Ridge is the one place where the drive to a job is measured in seconds. The estates here — Settlers Run, the Botanic Ridge Estate, the newer releases off Ballarto Road — are mostly built in the last fifteen years, which makes for straightforward split system work. Brick veneer, 2.7m ceilings, open-plan living and kitchen at the back, bedrooms zoned off a hallway. On a home like that we can usually run a back-to-back straight through the wall behind where the head sits, no long pipe chases, no roof-cavity gymnastics. The catch out here is the wind. Botanic Ridge sits up on a rise with not much between it and the bay, so outdoor units cop a steady breeze and need bracket-mounting done properly or they'll walk over time. We also size carefully for the double-height voids some of the display-home builders put in near the entry — a single head undersized for that volume will run flat out and never feel right. For the standard four-bedroom family home a well-placed head in the living zone plus one in the main bedroom covers most people. Bigger footprints or homes with a separate rumpus we'll usually spec as a multi-head so you're not hanging condensers all over the side of the house. Being local, we know which estates have covenants on where plant can go, and we plan placement around that before we quote.

Why Botanic Ridge homeowners choose Bellair

Botanic Ridge is home turf — we're on Homevale Drive, so there's no travel loading and we can swing past for a look before you've finished the phone call. Most jobs here are new heads in near-new homes, the odd multi-head for a larger floorplan, and replacements as the builder-grade units installed a decade ago start giving up. Matt's been in the trade 28 years and holds ARCtick licence AU 55218, so the refrigerant side is done by the book. Every install carries the full manufacturer warranty plus our 7-year workmanship warranty. We fit Mitsubishi Electric, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, Samsung, Haier and LG, and we'll talk you through which suits your room and budget rather than pushing one brand. Fixed price agreed before we start.

What's included in your Botanic Ridge install

A Botanic Ridge install covers supply of your chosen unit, fitting to AS/NZS 3000, neat back-to-back or routed pipework, condensate drainage, the electrical connection, removal and recycling of any old unit, full commissioning and a tidy-up before we leave. Because most homes here are newer and straightforward, we can usually knock the standard single-head over in a morning — but the price is fixed and agreed up front, so there's no change once we're on site. If your switchboard needs an upgrade to take the load, we'll flag that before quoting.

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.
