About split system installation
A standard back-to-back install, indoor unit on one side of the wall and outdoor unit directly behind it, is the benchmark price; longer pipe runs, double-storey walls and brick add cost. Installers must hold an ARC refrigerant handling licence, and most homes also need an electrician for the dedicated circuit. Size the unit to the room honestly: an oversized unit short-cycles and dehumidifies poorly, an undersized one never keeps up.
Getting quotes in Botany
When you enquire about split system installation, describe the job specifically: what is happening, how long it has been going on, and anything you have already tried. That detail helps a provider assess the request and may improve quote accuracy if they respond.
Local knowledge counts
If the timing for split system installation is flexible, include that in the Botany request and ask whether it changes availability or price. The provider remains responsible for confirming both.
Quick answers
Is it worth repairing an old air conditioner?+
A cheap part failure on a unit under ten years old is usually worth fixing. Once a compressor fails, or an old R22 refrigerant system leaks, replacement almost always wins because new units are markedly more efficient and R22 is phased out. Ask the technician for both prices and decide with the running-cost difference in view.
How much does split system installation cost?+
Installation of a standard back-to-back split system typically costs $600 to $1,100 on top of the unit price, so a common 2.5kW bedroom setup lands around $1,400 to $2,000 all-in. Long pipe runs, two-storey installs and switchboard work add to that. Get the quote itemised across unit, install and electrical.
What size air conditioner do I need?+
As a rough guide, allow about 120 to 150 watts of cooling per square metre: a 20 square metre bedroom suits roughly 2.5kW, an open-plan living area often needs 7kW or more. Ceiling height, insulation, window area and orientation all shift the calculation. A good installer sizes from the room, not from what is on special.
