With the summer heat and humidity in Cairns, our customers want a calm and cool home to relax in. If you’re looking for an affordable way to cool down your home, a split system air conditioner could be the perfect solution, and our fully qualified staff can have it installed in less than 4 hours.
What Is A Split System Air Conditioner?
A split system is composed of an outdoor unit and an indoor unit, a ductless design. The slim indoor unit sits high on a wall of your home and contains the cooling coil, a long blower and an air filter. The outdoor unit, called the condenser or compressor, is placed against or near the outer wall of the room being cooled.

Our Split System Installation Process
- Free quote & heat load calculation, we size the unit to the room, its insulation, window area and orientation. Too small and it runs flat out; too big and it won’t dehumidify properly, a real problem in Cairns.
- Brand & model recommendation, we recommend and install Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric and Fujitsu, with anti-corrosion coated units for beachside suburbs.
- Professional installation, licensed air conditioning mechanics and electricians handle the mounting, refrigerant lines, condensate drainage and all electrical work.
- Testing & handover, we commission the system, walk you through the controller and the most efficient way to run it, and leave the job as clean as when we arrived.
Replacing an old unit? We’ll remove and responsibly dispose of your old air conditioner, reclaim the refrigerant as required by law, and reuse existing penetrations where possible to keep your install cost down.
What Does A Split System Cost In Cairns?
Installed pricing depends on the unit size, the brand you choose and the installation itself, a single-storey back-to-back install is the simplest and cheapest, while long pipe runs, upper storeys or switchboard work add to it. Rather than quote you a headline number that changes the moment we see the job, we give you a free on-site assessment and a fixed written price.
