Air conditioning installation & electrical connection

Split systems and ducted units connected properly: the right circuit and protection, an isolator outside, tested and certified.

A reverse-cycle air conditioner is one of the biggest loads in a home, and up here it works hard in winter as well as summer. It needs its own correctly sized circuit, the right protection at the switchboard and a weatherproof isolator at the outdoor unit.

We do the electrical side of air conditioning installs: new circuits, isolators and switchboard work, either for you directly or alongside your air conditioning installer. If your board is already full or has no safety switches, we will tell you up front and give you options.

Questions

Air conditioning: FAQs

Do you supply the air conditioner?

We do the electrical work. If you are buying a system through an air conditioning installer, we can work with them. If you need a recommendation, ask and we will point you in the right direction.

Will my switchboard need upgrading?

Sometimes. If the board is full, has old fuses or no safety switches, an upgrade may be needed to add a new circuit safely. We check this when quoting and tell you before any work starts.

Can you replace an old unit on the existing circuit?

Often, yes, as long as the existing circuit suits the new unit. We test the circuit and confirm it is sized correctly before connecting the new one.
