How Our Aircon Installation Process Works

Site Assessment and Unit Selection

We start with a proper look at your space. Room size, ceiling height, insulation, window placement, and sun exposure all affect which unit will perform best.

Upfront Quote With No Hidden Costs

After we evaluate the job, you’ll receive a clear and detailed quote that outlines the costs for the unit, installation, and any extra electrical work that may be required, such as a dedicated circuit or a switchboard upgrade.

Professional Split AC Installation

Our electricians handle the full install, mounting the indoor unit, positioning the outdoor compressor, running refrigerant lines, completing all electrical connections, and testing the system to make sure it’s running at peak performance.

Walkthrough and Handover

Before we head out, we’ll ensure you’re all set to use your new system properly. We’ll cover the remote control settings, the best temperature ranges, and share some straightforward filter maintenance tips to keep your unit running like a champ for years to come.

Shuttle Electrics came out for an in-person visit to assess the scope of work and provided multiple quotes tailored to different options, which was really helpful. Their pricing was competitive and transparent. Matt and Nathan completed all the work in a single day, and the range of tasks they handled was a clear reflection of their skill and experience. They were friendly, polite, and worked with minimal disruption—cleaning as they went, which I really appreciated. I can confidently recommend Shuttle Electrics and will definitely be reaching out to them again for future work.

I recently met Matt Shuttle of Shuttle Electrics at a business networking meeting. He come across as a business man that prides himself on customer service, reliability and providing the customer with what they need with minimum fuss. Within a few days I had a quote for two new split system air conditioners that were long overdue in my house. After tweaking the budget for a few days I contacted Matt and we found a mutually convenient time to have the units install within a few days. He and his crew arrived, on time, went about the install with a minimum of fuss and there was no trace of them (except two new split systems) when they cleaned up and left. I've been running the units for a about a week now and Matt's advice has certainly paid off. I can't wait for summer knowing that my house is going to be frosty on those 35 plus days. Thanks Matt!!

Frequently Asked Questions About Aircon Installation

How much does it cost to have an aircon installed?

The cost of air conditioning installation really depends on the type of system you choose. A basic portable unit can start from around $250, while a professionally installed single-split system usually ranges between $1,800 and $4,500+. For larger ducted systems, prices can go from $5,000 up to $15,000 or more. We’ll always provide a clear, tailored quote based on your needs.

Who can install aircon units?

Aircon should be installed by licensed and trained professionals to ensure safety, efficiency, and compliance with regulations. Qualified HVAC technicians or electricians can handle everything from simple split-system units to complex ducted systems, as well as related solutions like heat pumps and ventilation systems.

How long does an aircon installation take?

When it comes to installing a standard split-system air conditioner, you can expect the process to take between 4 to 8 hours. This timeframe really depends on the size of the unit and the intricacies of the job. Larger or ducted systems can take longer, sometimes a full day or more. We’ll always let you know the expected timeframe upfront so you can plan with confidence.

Who can legally install an air conditioner in Victoria?

In Victoria, aircon installation must be carried out by a licensed electrician for the electrical components and an ARCtick-licensed technician for refrigerant handling. At Shuttle Electrics, our team holds both licences, which means we can handle the entire installation in a single visit without needing to bring in separate trades.

How long does a split AC installation take?

A standard single split system installation usually takes between 4 and 6 hours. If we’re installing a multi-head system or need to carry out additional electrical work like a switchboard upgrade, it may take a full day. We’ll always give you a realistic timeframe before we start.

Do you offer ongoing air conditioner service in Melbourne?

Yes. We provide routine servicing for split system air conditioners across Melbourne’s eastern suburbs. Regular servicing helps maintain performance, improves energy efficiency, and extends the lifespan of your unit. We recommend booking a service at least once a year, ideally before summer kicks in.
