Split system installation in Ferny Creek
Ferny Creek runs along the ridge crest around the R.J. Hamer Arboretum, which sits at over 500 metres and holds one of the biggest collections of temperate-climate trees in the country. Homes here look out over the arboretum's plantings and out toward Silvan valley, so the addresses come with view-facing glass and heavy tree cover on the same block. That combination changes sizing - you're sizing to hold a lounge that heats up sharply on a sunny winter afternoon through the glass, then loses heat fast to cold, damp air after sundown. The suburb was hit hard by fires historically, and CFA fire-response volunteers here are as much a fixture as the arboretum, so client conversations about ember protection and backup power come up on almost every quote. Bushfire ratings are universal, and the ratings often step up because of the arboretum plantings themselves. Access is generally better than the fern-gully villages further down - Ferny Creek Road is a proper collector, so we're not usually walking pipework in from a hundred metres away. Older brick veneer from the 1970s ridge-top subdivision era makes up a chunk of the housing, so switchboard checks are routine on retrofits. Tank water and grid outages during winter storms are part of the brief.
Ridge-top ranges - cold, damp and misty, heating-first climate, bushfire-rated forest blocks
Why Ferny Creek homeowners choose Bellair
Ferny Creek is about fifty kilometres north-east of our Botanic Ridge base, high on the ridge. The work here is heating-first sizing for a cold, damp climate, fire-rated placement to the block's BAL, long runs across steep forested blocks, and switchboard checks on the older cottages. Matt holds ARCtick licence AU 55218 with 28 years in the trade, so the refrigerant work is 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 size the system for the mountain climate rather than push a brand. Fixed price agreed before we start.
What's included in your Ferny Creek install
A Ferny Creek 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. Up here we size firmly for the cold, damp climate, place plant to the property's bushfire rating, and site the outdoor unit up and clear of fern litter so it breathes and drains. It's all in the fixed price agreed up front, with any switchboard upgrade flagged before you commit.

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.
