Fast, Compliant Air Conditioning Installation

Melbourne Heating and Cooling delivers clean, compliant air conditioning installation for homes and businesses across Melbourne, helping you stay comfortable through summer heatwaves and cold winter mornings with systems designed to perform year-round.

We start with a site inspection and heat load calculation to confirm the right kilowatts (kW), then handle compliant electrical contracting, refrigerant pipework, airflow balancing, and system commissioning. Where required, we also provide the relevant compliance certificate, backed by a clear 7-year workmanship guarantee.

Victorian Government Rebates

Save Up to $5,000 on Your Air Conditioning Installation

The Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU rebates) program can support eligible upgrades from gas heating to reverse cycle air conditioning, which is important because energy efficiency gains are strongest when an older gas system is replaced with one technology that heats and cools.

Melbourne Heating and Cooling is an accredited VEU provider and manages the paperwork, with the discount applied directly to installation cost where eligibility is confirmed.

Built for Melbourne's Weather

Air Conditioning That Performs in Melbourne Conditions

Melbourne weather can change fast, from hot northerly summer winds and sudden humidity spikes to cold winter mornings. That is why we install reverse cycle refrigerated air conditioning systems designed to perform reliably through both heating and cooling seasons, with correct placement of the indoor unit and outdoor unit, clean pipework, and compliant installation practices.

Our team completes an in-home assessment and heat load calculation, factoring in insulation, ceiling height, home orientation, room layout, and daily occupancy patterns to select the right kilowatts (kW) and commission the system for efficient, room-by-room comfort.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does air conditioner installation cost in Melbourne?
Air conditioner installation cost depends on the system type, kilowatt capacity, electrical requirements, access conditions, and whether the property is a house, apartment, or new build. We provide itemised quotes for both residential and commercial installations across Melbourne.
How long does air conditioning installation take?
Many split system air conditioner installations can be completed within one day, while ducted systems, apartment installations, and commercial projects may take longer depending on access, pipework, zoning, and commissioning requirements. Same-week installation may be available depending on scheduling and stock availability.
What is included in the installation?
Air conditioning installation typically includes indoor and outdoor unit mounting, refrigerant pipework, drainage, electrical connection, airflow balancing, commissioning, and system testing. Where required, wall brackets, roof mounting, and compliance documentation are also included.
How do I know which system size I need?
The right system size depends on room size, insulation, ceiling height, glazing, occupancy, and home orientation. Melbourne Heating and Cooling completes a site inspection and heat load calculation to recommend the correct kilowatts (kW) for both residential and commercial applications.
Can air conditioning be installed in apartments?
Yes. Apartment installation is common across Melbourne, although some buildings require strata approval or have limitations around outdoor unit placement, wall bracket positioning, and access. Our team assesses installation options before confirming the scope of work.
Do you install air conditioning in new builds?
Yes. Melbourne Heating and Cooling works with homeowners, builders, and developers on new build air conditioner installation projects, including split systems, ducted air conditioning, and staged fit-outs.
Do you clean up after the installation?
Yes. Our installation team protects floors and nearby surfaces during the job, removes installation waste, and ensures the system is fully tested before handover.
