Split system installation in The Patch
The Patch sits in a natural bowl between the ridges, and the microclimate down in that bowl is different from the surrounding hills - cold-air drainage collects here overnight, so winter minimums run two to three degrees below the ridge-top villages just up the road. That's a big deal for sizing. A three-and-a-half kilowatt heat-only unit that would handle a small lounge in Kallista won't hold the same room in The Patch on a still July night. Historically the suburb was and still is berry-growing and small-cropping country - the strawberries, raspberries and cool-climate cut-flower operations run on hobby-farm holdings between three and ten acres, and the older houses were built as farmhouses rather than residential homes. That means we see a lot of packing-shed and cool-store adjacent installs where the client wants the office or the retail cottage on the property conditioned separately from the main house. The Patch Store on Kallista-Emerald Road is the local anchor - small general store with a tiny post agency. Access on the smallholding driveways ranges from gravel to genuine paddock, so timing quotes around wet conditions is normal. Switchboard checks are routine, and tank water and generator provision come up more often here than in the townships.
Semi-rural hills - cool and damp, heating-first climate, bushfire-rated blocks
Why The Patch homeowners choose Bellair
The Patch is about fifty-two kilometres north-east of our Botanic Ridge base. The work here is heating-first sizing for a cool hills climate, long runs across rural smallholdings, cooling the odd shed or studio, fire-rated placement to the block's BAL, and switchboard checks on the older homes. 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 climate and the property rather than push a brand. Fixed price agreed before we start.
What's included in your The Patch install
An install at The Patch 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 semi-rural blocks we allow time for the long runs a spread-out home or shed needs, place plant to the property's bushfire rating, and site the outdoor unit up and clear of leaf litter. 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.
