Split system installation in Doveton
Doveton was built almost overnight in the 1950s and 60s as housing for the workers at the Holden, Heinz and International Harvester plants nearby, and that history is stamped all over the suburb — compact blocks, modest post-war brick and weatherboard homes, laid out to a plan. Those original homes are the heart of the work here, and they come with their own set of considerations. They're small, often uninsulated, with defined little rooms and wiring that's decades old, so the first thing we check on a lot of Doveton jobs is whether the switchboard can safely take a reverse-cycle load — a fair few need an upgrade before we go any further. Pipework's usually short and simple on a compact home, a clean back-to-back, but sizing matters because an uninsulated post-war house loses heat and cool quickly, so we spec for that rather than the floor area alone. A lot of these homes are on their second or third round of heating and cooling, so replacements are common. Doveton's inland and flat with no coast, so it's clean distribution and sizing for hot summers. Budgets here are practical, so we keep it sensible and quote straight. It's honest work for people who want a reliable system at a fair price, and that's exactly how we approach it.

Why Doveton homeowners choose Bellair
Doveton is about fourteen kilometres north of our Botanic Ridge base. The work here leans heavily on the original post-war homes — replacements of tired old units, switchboard upgrades on decades-old wiring, and sizing that accounts for uninsulated rooms. Matt holds ARCtick licence AU 55218 and has 28 years in the trade, so the refrigerant and electrical side is handled properly. Every install carries the full manufacturer warranty plus our 7-year workmanship warranty. We fit Mitsubishi Electric, Fujitsu, Toshiba, Panasonic, Samsung, Haier and LG, and we'll match the unit to the home and budget rather than push a brand. Fixed price agreed before we start.
What's included in your Doveton install
A Doveton install includes 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 older post-war homes here we allow time to check the decades-old switchboard and wiring before we commit to a load, and we size for the way an uninsulated home holds temperature. It's all in the fixed price agreed up front, with any switchboard upgrade flagged before you commit.

Arelys BarryMatt 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.

Milon PangCommunication 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!

Alexander MoloksherWe 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.

Michelle BellHighly 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!

Onyeka RobinsonMatt 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.
