Split Systems

Split System Installation in Coolum Beach

Cooling one room, or a whole beachside unit? A split system is the easy answer. It cools on sticky summer nights, heats in winter and runs on its own remote.

We size it to the space, find a protected spot for the outdoor unit and finish the electrical the same day.

Multi-Head Systems

Only room on the balcony for one outdoor unit? A multi-head lets that single unit look after two or more rooms.

Ducted Air Conditioning Installation in Coolum Beach

In a bigger beach house, ducted gives you even comfort throughout with almost nothing on show. The main unit hides above the ceiling, slim outlets go in each room, and a wall panel controls the lot.

Zones let you cool only where you need to, and smart control means you can switch it on before you get home. We inspect the roof before quoting and also replace tired ducted systems.

Three Things We Plan For Near the Beach

Coolum Beach homes and units come with a few coastal quirks. Here’s what we look at when we quote.

Sheltered Outdoor Units

Where we can, we place the outdoor unit out of the direct sea breeze, which helps it cope with salty air.

Apartment Approvals

In a complex, the body corporate usually decides where outdoor units can go. We’ll give you the details they ask for.

Holiday Let Timing

Renting it out? We’ll book the install between guests and sort access with your manager.

Own a unit or holiday let and live elsewhere? You don’t need to be there for us to quote or install.

Replacements

Air Con Replacement in Coolum Beach

Coastal conditions can age an outdoor unit faster. When yours has had enough, we’ll remove it and fit a new system sized for the room.

Replacing a few units at once? We can also quote ducted, so you can compare.

How much does air con cost to install in Coolum Beach?

A single split costs from $1,750, including installation. Multi-head and ducted are quoted individually, because the number of rooms, where the outdoor unit sits, access and wiring all vary. Book a free quote to get your fixed figure.

Does salt air affect where the outdoor unit goes?

It can. Close to the beach, we look for a spot that’s sheltered from the worst of the sea breeze and spray where possible.

Do you install in apartments and units?

Yes. Complexes usually want the body corporate to sign off on outdoor units and new wall holes first. Talk to your building manager, and we’ll provide whatever information the committee asks for.

Can you install in a holiday let between bookings?

Yes. Tell us who has access and which dates are free, and we’ll fit the install around your guests.

Ducted or split for a beach house?

For a whole house with roof space, ducted with zones is worth pricing. For an apartment or a few rooms, splits or a multi-head usually make more sense.

Will it heat in winter as well?

Yes. Our reverse cycle systems heat as well as cool.

How soon can the install happen?

Expect to hear from us within 24 hours. Once you say yes, splits are typically in within the week. We’ll confirm the ducted lead time with your quote.

How long will the installation take?

Most installs take a day.

Is wiring included in the price?

Yes. Our own team does the electrical on every install.

Can you replace an older air conditioner?

Yes. We remove the old unit and fit the replacement on the same visit.

Do you install for Coolum Beach businesses?

Yes. We fit split and ducted systems for cafes, retail and offices. See the commercial air conditioning page for more.

Which air conditioners do you fit?

Fujitsu General units, as an authorised dealer that also does the warranty repairs. The manufacturer now trades as General Australia, a change made in January 2026, and warranties already issued remain valid.
