A multi-split runs 2–5 indoor heads from a single outdoor compressor. It's the ideal solution for Canberra townhouses, apartments and character homes where roof cavities are shallow or there's no room for multiple condensers on a small block.
We install Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Fujitsu multi-splits — all with strong low-ambient heating performance for Canberra winters.
What's included
- 2-, 3-, 4- and 5-head multi-split systems

Plan the zones and return-air path together
Ducted design starts with the rooms you want to condition simultaneously. A bedroom cluster used overnight can have a different load from a sunny living area used in the afternoon. Ask which zones must remain open, how the system maintains minimum airflow and whether the controller can regulate individual room temperatures or only open and close dampers.
A return-air grille needs a clear path from the occupied rooms. Closing bedroom doors can restrict circulation if there is no suitable transfer path. Discuss door positions, return placement and noise before selecting equipment. More zones do not automatically mean lower bills; the system must operate safely at its minimum airflow.
Retrofit access and existing ducts need inspection
A manhole does not guarantee a workable ducted installation. Roof height, truss layout, insulation, service clearances, drainage and electrical supply all matter. Old gas-heating ducts may need replacement or alteration: their condition, insulation and dimensions must suit the new airflow and design. Reuse should be an inspected option, not a blanket promise.
Request a drawing of outlets, returns and equipment locations, with separate allowances for electrical upgrades and access work. Installed-price examples are budgeting guides rather than verified customer invoices. Commissioning should check airflow, drainage and controller operation against the agreed scope. Compare a multi-split alternative where ceiling access is limited.
