What is a Split System Air Conditioner and How Does It Work?
A split-system air conditioner is one of the most energy-efficient cooling solutions for combating the sweltering Melbourne summer. It comprises an outdoor unit that cools air and pumps it internally into your home via wall-mounted indoor units.
The two are connected by insulated tubes piped through a small hole in the wall created by skilled technicians.
Single-Room vs. Multi-Room Options
The great thing about a split-system air conditioner is that it can be used in homes of all sizes.
Split systems work in single rooms through one indoor unit or several living spaces via multi-head units, which means they are a versatile cooling solution.
Energy-Efficient Heating and Cooling
According to AGL, split-system air conditioners (particularly those with inverter technology) can be between 300% and 600% more efficient in heating and cooling your home than other systems.
This is because they can convert one unit of thermal energy into three to six times as much cooling or heating energy, which, therefore, significantly reduces the cost of making the temperature more comfortable in your home.

Why Split Systems are Perfect for Melbourne Homes
Melbourne is notorious for its fickle weather, where temperatures can fluctuate within a couple of hours. But this is why reverse-cycle split-system air conditioners are such a great option.
Not only do they provide households with the flexibility to adjust the temperature in each room to counter drops or rises in the mercury, but they can also do it in a way that reduces running costs without the need to buy a separate gas heater and air conditioner unit.

Inverter Technology for Reduced Energy Bills
One of the main reasons why split system air conditioners are more energy and cost-efficient is because they come with inverter technology.
This energy-saving innovation adjusts the temperature of the appliance and room by controlling motor speed. Therefore, it makes the whole process of heating and cooling a living space much cheaper and easier to manage, as it uses less energy overall.
Superior Air Quality and Low Maintenance
Aside from being cheaper and more efficient to run in terms of energy consumption, an air conditioner split system can also significantly improve your home’s indoor air quality.
Some makes and models, including those produced by Mitsubishi Electric, have advanced clean-air technology built into them. This traps upwards of 90% of all the rubbish in the air in a room, such as dust and allergens, and makes them much more pleasant for those who suffer from allergies.
However, for your heating and cooling systems to continue to do this effectively on a long-term basis, you will need to get them properly cleaned by a qualified professional at least once a year.


Easy Installation and Affordable Options
Split system air conditioners are a terrific option for many households in Melbourne as their installation is easier and cheaper than a ducted system.
Our installation team are experts at putting both into our client’s homes and will do an excellent job for you, whichever system you choose. However, the latter requires a wider range of materials and more extensive labour for the ductwork throughout the property. Therefore, it tends to be the pricier option.
By contrast, split system air conditioners are generally easier to install as they only require mounting the indoor unit on a wall and linking it to an outdoor unit. So, they involve much less in the way of labour cost.
Compare Different Types of Air Conditioning

Overall, there are three main types of air conditioning options you can choose. They include ducted air conditioning, split system air conditioners, and evaporative air conditioning.
We have an extensive range of them all, and which one you pick will depend on what type of heating and cooling solution you are after because some will be more appropriate to your needs than others.
Each of them has pros and cons that you should consider. For instance, some are more expensive than others to purchase and operate, take longer to install, and require more maintenance.
To help you decide on which heating-cooling system is best for your household, our friendly team will go through all the available options with you.
Split Systems vs. Ducted Air Conditioning
If you are debating whether to get a split system or ducted air conditioner, there are a few things you should consider.
Generally speaking, split systems are considered more suitable for apartments, small homes, and offices. Ducted air conditioning systems, on the other hand, are a better option for larger buildings or residences, given the amount of energy required to heat or cool them.
Additionally, a split system is cheaper for you to purchase, and as it can be installed in one area of your home at a time, it can be used much quicker. It is also more energy efficient because it can cool individual rooms and avoid energy loss through ducts.
Evaporative Cooling for Summer Comfort
Evaporative air conditioners are a good, cost-effective option for Melbourne’s dry heat because they use a system that cools air through a natural evaporation process.
This involves dry and hot air from the outside passing through cooling pads soaked in water, during which time it evaporates and absorbs heat and turns into cooler air that is circulated via ducts throughout your property.
Why Our Split Systems
Daikin’s split system air conditioners, endorsed by the National Asthma Council Australia’s Sensitive Choice® program, feature the blue butterfly symbol. This recognition underscores Daikin’s dedication to advanced air filtration and purification technology, making their systems ideal for individuals with asthma and allergies.
Victoria’s unpredictable weather can cause discomfort and health issues. Efficient Pure Plumbing offers affordable air conditioning installation for homes and businesses, ensuring reliable performance. Our multi-head split systems provide precise climate control for multiple rooms, and our wall-mounted units offer space-saving solutions for residential and small commercial spaces.

Go Green with Solar-Powered Air Conditioning
The sun is a tremendous energy source as it produces around 3.8 x 10²⁶ joules of it every single second. By comparison, planet Earth, as a whole, uses only about 5.8 x 10²⁰ joules of energy on an annual basis.
By harnessing this incredible volume, you can generate your own electricity from the sun’s energy and, therefore, decrease your reliance on the grid. This, in turn, will result in you lowering your electricity bill and enjoying a more eco-friendly and sustainable source of energy to power your air conditioning systems.

Reduce Your Carbon Footprint with Energy-Efficient Systems
The average Australian’s carbon footprint is estimated to be between 15–20 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is significantly higher than the world average of 4.47 tonnes per individual.
If you choose split systems and other energy-efficient systems and innovations, such as inverter technology, you can significantly lower greenhouse gas emissions by reducing the amount of energy you use.
How Much Does Air Conditioning Installation Cost?

The cost of installing heating and cooling systems varies depending on several factors. Rest assured, we offer competitive pricing based on the scope of the work and will provide you with fantastic service and cooling solutions that deliver optimal performance.
Before any installation work is carried out, you will be presented with a full quote for your approval.
Factors Affecting Installation Costs
Various factors will affect the installation cost of your heating and cooling solution. These include the size and type of air conditioning systems you require, e.g., only split system, and whether you need an indoor unit or an outdoor unit. Additionally, it will depend on how long it will take to install the system (much longer in multi-level homes) and if there is any specialised electrical work that needs to be completed before the air conditioning unit can be put in.
Government Rebates for Energy-Efficient Systems
According to the 2021 Lancet Countdown report, air cooling systems cause approximately 3% of all greenhouse gas emissions. Subsequently, as part of the federal government’s commitment to achieve zero emissions by 2050, government rebates are available for those wanting to buy brand-new, energy-efficient systems.
In Victoria, for instance, the VEU Rebate enables households to save up to $1000 on installing a new cooling system, while similar incentives are in place in Queensland, New South Wales, and the rest of Australia. Our great team can advise you on what incentives are available where you live and if you are eligible for them.

How Long Does It Take to Install a Split System?
The length of time it takes to install a split system air conditioning system depends on many factors, including the complexity of the system, where it is installed inside your home, the electrical connections from the main switchboard to the A/C unit, and the construction of your property, i.e., the materials, insulation, and building frames.
Overall, the entire process could take between 4-8 hours or more to complete after the installers arrived. However, we will advise you of a more specific timeframe after thoroughly assessing the scope of the work required.
What Size Split System Air Conditioning Do I Need?
The size of the split system air conditioner you need will depend on how big the room you want to cool is.
Obviously, you’ll want us to put in the most energy-efficient air conditioners for your spaces, and our friendly, professional team will be able to advise you of the most appropriate system for your needs.
However, for smaller rooms of up to 20 square metres, such as bedrooms or home offices, a 2–2.5 kilowatt (kW) air conditioner usually suffices. For extra large, open-plan rooms of over 60 square metres, you’ll probably need a 6–10 kW air conditioner.
How Can I Reduce My Air Conditioning Running Costs?
Like with any heating and cooling solution, there are several things you can do to maintain lower running costs for your ducted air conditioning system.
Ideally, you should have your home properly insulated as that helps to keep cool air in and warm air out in the summer (and vice versa in the winter), which therefore reduces the load on your air conditioner.
Additionally, using a smart thermostat can help you maintain optimal temperatures for your home while having your system regularly cleaned by a professional will increase your air conditioner’s performance and reduce energy consumption.
You should also use fans as much as possible, close curtains or blinds and doors when your system is running to ensure it doesn’t have to work so hard and turn it off when you are not at home.
