Split system installation in Upper Ferntree Gully
Upper Ferntree Gully is where the 1000 Steps starts - the Kokoda Track Memorial Walk climbs from the car park at the top of Burwood Highway straight up to One Tree Hill. Because of that, half the suburb backs onto Dandenong Ranges National Park and the properties on the park boundary are treated as bush blocks for our install standards even though they're only a few hundred metres from the train station. Ember-rated cable exits, cleared perimeter around the outdoor unit, and a corrosion-treated coil are the baseline. The other half of the suburb sits between Burwood Highway and the railway line - flatter, post-war housing, tile roofs, tight quarter-acre blocks - where install days are quicker but roof access is often the pinch point. Terracotta tiles in this belt of Upper Ferntree Gully are typically Wunderlich or Monier from the 1950s and they crack under boot weight if we're not careful. We work off crawl boards or timber runners across the battens rather than stepping directly on the tiles, and any tile we do break gets replaced same-day from stock in the van. Upper Ferntree Gully station is on the Belgrave line, so a lot of the residential customers here commute to the city and want the install done during the day while they're not home - we've done many jobs with a lockbox handover and a text at pack-up, and it works cleanly here because the streets are mostly quiet cul-de-sacs off Burwood Highway.

Why Upper Ferntree Gully homeowners choose Bellair
Upper Ferntree Gully is about forty-three kilometres north-east of our Botanic Ridge base. The work here is replacements and switchboard upgrades in post-war homes, fire-rated placement on the park-edge blocks, and zoned or multi-head systems sized for both heating and cooling. Matt's ARCtick licensed, AU 55218, with 28 years on the tools, 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 system to the home rather than push a brand. Fixed price agreed before we start.
What's included in your Upper Ferntree Gully install
An Upper Ferntree Gully 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 post-war homes we handle the replacement cleanly and check the switchboard, and on the park-edge blocks we place plant to the bushfire rating and keep the outdoor unit clear of leaf litter. 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.
