What we do
We focus on wall-mounted split systems, so that's all Luke does all day.
Supply and install for bedrooms, living areas, granny flats and units. Sized to the room and the climate.
Not cooling, not heating, leaking water, error codes or strange noises. Diagnosed properly and fixed.
Filter, coil and drain cleans plus a full health check, so it runs efficiently and doesn't smell.
Out with the noisy, inefficient old unit and in with a modern inverter split, usually in the same spot.
We don't install ducted systems.
Questions
Straight answers about split systems in the Central West.
Most back-to-back installs, where the outdoor unit sits on the other side of the wall from the indoor head, are done in half a day. Longer pipe runs, second storeys or a switchboard upgrade add time. Luke tells you on the quote visit.
It depends on the room size, ceiling height, insulation, windows and which way the room faces. Out here it also has to heat well on frosty mornings, so Luke measures up on site rather than guessing from a brochure.
Yes. A modern reverse-cycle inverter split is one of the cheapest ways to heat a room. The key is choosing a unit rated to keep heating efficiently when it's cold outside.
Once a year is a good rule for most homes, ideally before summer or winter. Units in rentals, motels or busy rooms may need it more often. Between services, rinse the indoor filters every few weeks when it's running a lot.
The usual causes are blocked filters, a dirty coil, low refrigerant from a leak, an iced-up outdoor unit, or a faulty sensor or board. Book a repair and Luke will find the cause rather than just topping up gas.
Usually a blocked or kinked drain line, or a dirty coil and drip tray. It's a quick fix, and worth doing early before it marks the wall or ceiling.

Show Luke a current written quote from another licensed installer for the same unit and the same job. He'll beat it. It has to be like for like: same brand and capacity, same install type, same inclusions.
Often, yes. Book before midday and Luke will try to get to you that afternoon. It depends on where you are and how busy the day is, and he'll text you to confirm a time either way.
Yes. Book a time online, Luke comes out, checks the space and your switchboard, and gives you a written quote. No obligation.
