Split system installation in Kew
Kew occupies the ridge inside the Yarra's bend, with Studley Park dropping away to the river on one side and Kew Junction anchoring the other, and it's held its place as one of Melbourne's grand original suburbs since the 1850s. The housing stock reflects that continuity - sweeping Victorian terraces, substantial Edwardian houses, Federation homes on double blocks, and the odd mid-century architect-designed home that slipped in among the older stock. Ceiling heights of well over three metres are the norm in the older homes, so any system going into a Kew house is sized to volume rather than floor area, and undersized units get called out fast here. The heritage overlays across most of the suburb mean we cannot run pipework across ornate frontages or drill through decorative masonry, so routing is planned through subfloor voids, up hidden light-well elevations, or into dedicated plant spaces on the larger homes. Blocks slope toward the river across a lot of the suburb, so where the condenser lands and how the pipe run climbs the house takes proper site planning rather than a look at Google Maps. Switchboards range from ancient period boards that need a full replacement to modern three-phase supplies on the fully renovated homes. Multi-head systems are the standard here because the floorplans simply demand them - six or seven zones across a single house is normal. Kew is inland with no coast in play, so it's clean distribution and right-sizing for hot summers.

Why Kew homeowners choose Bellair
Kew is about thirty-one kilometres north-east of our Botanic Ridge base. The work here is large multi-head systems across grand mansions, volume sizing for high ceilings, genuinely discreet routing around heritage frontages, careful core-drilling of solid masonry, placement around protected trees and sloping blocks, and switchboard or three-phase work to suit. Matt's ARCtick licensed, AU 55218, with 28 years on the tools, so the gas and electrical side is handled properly. 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 spec the system to suit the home rather than push a brand. Fixed price agreed before we start.
What's included in your Kew install
A Kew 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 these grand homes we size for the high ceilings, plan genuinely discreet routing around heritage frontages, core-drill solid masonry carefully, and work around protected trees and sloping blocks. It's all in the fixed price agreed up front, with any switchboard or three-phase work 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.
