Split system installation in Merricks
Merricks is vineyard country through and through — the general store on the corner, cellar doors down every second road, and homes that are mostly farmhouses, converted outbuildings and substantial rural properties set well back off the lane. There's not much conventional housing here, and the work reflects that. On a rural property the room you want cooled can be a long way from anywhere sensible to put the condenser, so pipe runs need real planning, and we're often asked to do a main house plus a studio, a converted barn, or a cellar office as part of the same job. The blocks are big enough that outdoor unit placement is rarely a squeeze — the question is more about running clean lines across a rambling home. A lot of these properties are on tank water with their own power arrangements, sometimes three-phase for the winery side, and the older homesteads regularly need a switchboard upgrade before they'll carry a reverse-cycle load. Merricks sits inland and slightly elevated, cool enough that winter heating is a genuine consideration, so we size reverse-cycle systems to hold a room through a cold hinterland night as well as a hot afternoon. It's a suburb where every property is a bit different, so we plan each job to the home rather than assuming anything.
❄ Inland wine country — cool elevated nights, hot summer days, no coast; heating counts as much as cooling
Why Merricks homeowners choose Bellair
Merricks is about thirty-two kilometres south of our Botanic Ridge base, in the heart of the Peninsula wine country. Typical work here is longer, planned runs across farmhouses and rural properties, cooling converted barns and studios alongside the main house, and switchboard upgrades on the older homesteads. 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 size for winter heating as much as summer cooling rather than push a brand. Fixed price agreed before we start.
What's included in your Merricks install
A Merricks 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 rural properties here we allow extra time for the longer runs a rambling farmhouse or a separate outbuilding needs, and we check the older homestead switchboards carry the load before we quote. It's all in the fixed price agreed up front, with any 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.
