"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 Cooling, 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 Cooling to anyone looking for high-quality air conditioning installation services."

"Highly recommend Bellair Cooling! 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 6-year Bellair workmanship warranty. Highly recommend Matt and the Bellair team."

We assess, lodge and apply it for you.

How it works

Three steps. No surprises.

01

Tell us the job

Fill the form or call Matt on 0416 105 912. We'll ask a few quick questions about your space, your power supply, and what you want to achieve.

02

Lock the price

We give you a fixed quote — usually within hours, often on the same call. Includes everything: unit, brackets, install, electrical, cleanup, testing, warranty.

03

Cold air, same day

Matt and the team arrive on time, install cleanly, walk you through the remote, and you're cooling (or warming) by lunchtime. Most installs done in under four hours.

Why Bellair

The quiet difference: an owner who shows up.

7-year
workmanship warranty

Matches the manufacturer warranty on premium units. If anything we did fails in seven years, we come back and make it right.

ARCtick AU 55218

Licensed refrigerant handler — required by Australian law for legal install. Half the cheap operators online aren't.

Same-week install

Most jobs booked Monday are installed by Friday. Heatwaves and cold snaps get prioritised.

Fixed pricing, no surprises

$1,490–$1,890 for a standard back-to-back split. Quoted before we lift a tool. No "extras" on the day.

Clean workmanship

Cabling tucked, walls patched, drop sheets down, dust vacuumed. Customers tell us they "could hardly notice the outside cabling" — that's the bar.

Questions we hear every week

The honest answers.

How much does a split system installation cost?
Most back-to-back single-split installs are between $1,490 and $1,890 fixed price. That includes the unit, brackets, copper, drainage, electrical connection, install labour, testing, cleanup, and a 7-year workmanship warranty. Complex installs — long pipe runs, structural work, multi-head systems — are quoted on site after we measure up. The quote is the invoice.
Am I eligible for the VEU rebate?
If you're upgrading from an old gas heater, an old inefficient electric heater, or an older inefficient split, you likely qualify for a Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) rebate. We assess eligibility on the spot, lodge the paperwork for you, and apply the discount directly to your invoice — no waiting for a cheque.
What brands do you install?
Mitsubishi Electric, Fujitsu, Haier, Samsung, Toshiba, Panasonic and LG. We'll recommend the right unit for your space, your budget, and your power supply — we don't push a particular brand because we're paid the same regardless.
How long does an install take?
A standard back-to-back single-split is usually done in under four hours — including unboxing, mounting, drilling, piping, vacuuming the line, electrical connection, testing, walking you through the remote, and tidying up. Multi-head and ducted jobs take longer and we'll tell you up front.
How soon can you install?
Most jobs booked Monday are in by Friday. In heatwaves and cold snaps we prioritise customers with no working system. Call Matt on 0416 105 912 to lock a date.
What's the warranty?
Seven years on our workmanship. The unit itself is covered by the manufacturer warranty — usually 5–7 years parts and labour depending on brand and model. If anything we did fails in those seven years, we come back and make it right.
Are you actually licensed?
Yes. ARCtick licence AU 55218 — that's the federal refrigerant handling licence required by Australian law for any legal split system install. We're also fully insured. Always ask any installer for their ARCtick number — half the cheap operators online don't have one.
Do you handle the electrical work?
For most installs, yes — Matt does the refrigerant and the unit, and our electrical partner Calen Lacey of Lacey Electrics handles any switchboard upgrades or new circuits on the same day. One job, one day, one invoice. Switchboard bundles start at $900.
Do you service the unit later?
Yes — filter clean, performance check, refrigerant top-up if needed. Keeping your unit serviced is what gets you 15+ years out of it. Book a service the same way you'd book an install.
Why "Previously Bellair Cooling"?
Same business, same owner, same phone, same workmanship — just a clearer name for what we actually do. Old domain bellaircooling.com.au still works and redirects here.
