How Split System Installation Works in Tumut

Split system installation covers fitting a new indoor and outdoor unit to heat and cool a room. Customers usually need this for a new build, when replacing an old unit that has failed, or when adding cooling to a room that has never had it.

Our process at RPM Air Conditioning & Refrigeration starts with a site assessment, then we choose the right unit capacity for the room. From there we plan the indoor unit location, run the refrigerant lines, install the outdoor compressor, test everything and hand it over. Split system installation in Tumut is straightforward when it's planned properly from the start.

A few things affect cost and complexity: the size of the room, whether the wall is brick or timber frame, the distance between the indoor and outdoor units, ceiling height, power requirements, and the brand and capacity you choose.

A quality installation comes down to correct sizing, neat refrigerant line runs, proper insulation, pressure testing before the system is commissioned, and a clear handover so you know how everything works. view all air conditioning and refrigeration services

We also run a preventative maintenance program to keep your new system running well for years.

I size every job before I recommend a unit. A lot of people get undersized systems because it's cheaper upfront, and then the system runs constantly and wears out early. That's not a saving.

Split System Installation Questions Answered

  • How long does a split system installation take?

    A standard single-unit installation usually takes half a day to a full day. Factors like brick walls, longer refrigerant runs, or difficult outdoor access can extend the timeframe. Ryan gives you a time estimate at the quote stage so you know what to expect.

  • How much does split system installation cost in Tumut?

    Pricing depends on unit capacity, wall type, and job complexity. RPM Air Conditioning & Refrigeration provides a written quote before any work begins, with payment by direct deposit. Contact Ryan for a price specific to your home or business.

  • Do I need a licensed technician to install a split system?

    Yes. Refrigerant handling requires an ARCtick licence and the electrical work requires a licensed electrician. RPM handles both parts of the job, so you don't need to coordinate separate trades.

  • What size split system do I need for my room?

    Sizing depends on room dimensions, ceiling height, insulation, window area and sun exposure. Undersizing is a common mistake that leads to a system running constantly. We assess your space before recommending a unit capacity.

  • Can you remove and dispose of my old air conditioner?

    Yes, we can remove your existing unit as part of the job. Refrigerant must be recovered by a licensed technician first, so let us know about the old unit at the quote stage.
