Split system installation in Hughesdale
Hughesdale sits in the shadow of two very different neighbours — Oakleigh's Greek café strip on one side and the constant hum of Chadstone's shopping centre on the other — and manages to stay a quiet residential pocket in between. The housing reflects that: modest California bungalows and post-war brick homes on tidy blocks, most of them lived in by families and older couples who've been there decades. What we see on site is a suburb where the priority is doing an install that looks like it was always meant to be there — not one that visibly hangs off the side of the house. On the bungalows that means the same double-brick discipline you'd apply anywhere in the belt: proper core-drill entry rather than a hammer punch-through, external pipework tucked against a downpipe or behind planting, and honest sizing to the room volume once you account for the higher ceilings. On the post-war homes it's more forgiving — cavity brick walls sometimes appear, back-to-back runs are shorter, and the switchboards are marginally younger but still typically need a look before an inverter draws through them. Chadstone's proximity has brought townhouse development to some streets, so a chunk of jobs now involve owners-corporation placement rules and setback constraints. Hughesdale's inland with no bay breeze at all, and plenty of the housing faces west, so afternoon heat load through summer is real. It's a quiet pocket where quality matters more than speed.

Why Hughesdale homeowners choose Bellair
Hughesdale is about twenty-four kilometres north-west of our Botanic Ridge base. The work here is core-drilling and routing through California bungalows, zoned heads for the compartmentalised floorplans, sizing for renovated rear extensions, switchboard upgrades on the originals, and owners-corporation placement in the townhouses. 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 match the unit to the home rather than push a brand. Fixed price agreed before we start.
What's included in your Hughesdale install
A Hughesdale 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 double-brick bungalows here we allow extra time to core-drill, size for the high ceilings, and check the original switchboard before we commit to a load. 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 close to the Poath Road shops or the Chadstone edge we plan the pipework so it stays clear of any recent side-boundary extension.

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.
