Top Aircon Installation related questions

The cost of air conditioning installation can range from $150 to $12,000, depending on the type of air conditioning unit you want - whether split systems, window types, or central air conditioning systems. For air conditioning repair costs, expect to pay $70 to $900. The rates can go up, depending on the complexity of the task. Specify the details of your task or what type of air conditioning system you need to have installed, so you can get cheap air conditioning installation.

. 

The installation of aircon can take four to eight hours. But it’s important to note that the time it takes to install your AC unit depends on several factors, like the kind and dimensions of the unit, the size of your property, and the accessibility of the space. Discuss these details with your Tasker beforehand so you can gauge how long the installation process will take.

It depends on what type of air conditioning unit you have, but generally speaking, the average lifespan of an air conditioner is 10 to 25 years. You can maximise this lifespan by ensuring that your unit is correctly installed by a professional, maintaining and cleaning it regularly, and having it repaired when needed.  

You should have your existing aircon unit replaced when it is more than ten years old, it frequently breaks down, your energy bills have skyrocketed, is no longer energy efficient, and when it stops keeping up with your needs and doing its supposed job. Another sign would be when repairs cost way more than installing a replacement. Your Tasker can assess your existing air conditioning unit if it needs to be repaired or replaced. 

After your aircon installation, you should first check its control system. Testing your thermostat is a way to see whether it has problems sensing the temperature inside your property. Then, inspect the ducts and listen for unusual noises like rustling, flapping, or hissing. Lastly, examine whether cool air is circulating inside the room. Your Tasker can be with you as you do these inspections so they can fix the problems that would arise.

It’s not recommended. Air conditioning installation can only be done by professionals with the appropriate skills, training, and licences. And since installing an aircon involves working on electrical components, this adds an elevated risk to the process. It’s best to leave this to the experts to save yourself time, money, effort, and from potential harm.

Think about your needs, space requirements, and budget. Also, consider the unit’s quality, size, energy consumption, air quality, and durability. You can also consult your Tasker about the amount of time it takes and cost to install and whether the unit requires high maintenance. Consider all these factors before choosing the aircon type to install on your property. 

In Australia, you can choose from a wide range of trusted air conditioning brands for installation, including Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, Fujitsu, Panasonic, LG, Samsung, Kelvinator, Hitachi, and Carrier. These brands are well-suited to the Australian climate and offer various options like split systems, ducted units, and reverse cycle air conditioners. Your installer can recommend the best brand and model based on your home size, usage, and energy efficiency needs.


It’s recommended to have your air conditioner serviced at least once a year, ideally in spring before the hot weather arrives. If you use it year-round (for both cooling and heating), a 6-month service may be ideal. Regular servicing helps maintain energy efficiency, extends the unit's lifespan, and ensures clean, healthy air in your home.

A split system is ideal for cooling or heating individual rooms and is more affordable to install and run. Ducted air conditioning is better for whole-home climate control, offering a seamless look with vents in the ceiling, but it’s generally more expensive upfront and to install.

Yes, many air conditioning brands offer energy-efficient models with high star ratings and inverter technology. Look for units with a high Energy Rating Label, and ask your installer about the best options for reducing electricity usage while maintaining comfort year-round.

What does air conditioner installation service include?

AC installations start by providing you with advice on what types of air conditioning units you should choose based on your needs. Your Tasker can explain the different types of equipment and their respective benefits. Part of their work as air conditioning experts is to also survey and inspect your property’s complete system, including ductwork, building exhaust, and attic insulation.

Letting your Tasker help you install heating and cooling systems can increase the air quality inside your property. Here are some things to expect when booking an air conditioning installation service near you:

Window-type aircon installation

If you want to cool a small area or a single room, a window-type air conditioning system is highly recommended. Your Tasker can install this by inserting the unit into a constructed wall slot or in one of your windows, as long as it is located near a suitable electrical outlet. This type of aircon is usually less costly, cheaper to operate, and easier to maintain! A window-type aircon comes with a filter that slides out to be cleaned regularly for maximum efficiency.

Split AC installation

You might want to have a split-type air conditioning unit installed for larger areas like a living room or home office. Split system air conditioners come with a compressor placed in the outdoor unit and a condenser set in the indoor unit, which cools the room. You can choose whether you want to have a floor-mounted or a wall-mounted installation with this type. Both kinds are completely ductless, which can help increase your energy savings and reduce running costs. You can even be more energy efficient by having your property insulated and help control its temperature.

Central aircon installation

A central air conditioning system is perfect for those who have a large property with multiple rooms. It relies on ducted systems installed in your house or building. These ducts connect rooms and allow the regulated air to travel efficiently, creating a cooler and comfortable temperature in the least amount of time. If your property doesn’t have the ductwork to support this kind of aircon, you may need to have your home renovated to retrofit the system.

Your Tasker can inspect the ductwork to make sure it’s properly sealed, and then they can install the aircon either on a concrete pad or on your roof, wherever there is adequate airflow. And since central aircon utilises ducts, it allows you to have appliances installed without worrying too much about floor or wall space.

Looking to get a split ac installed. I have the unit - Akai 3.5kW / 4.5kW Reverse Cycle Split System Air Conditioner - just need it professionally installed and correct certificates issued. Almost a back to back installation.... Around 20 to 25m to the switchboard for electrical circuit. It will al depend on your expertise for the location of the external unit. Internal unit will be installed on a rear wall - however there is an enclosed patio area behind this wall - meaning the pressurised pipes / cables will need to go externally up through the roof and the compressor mounted on a cliplock roof (angled at less than 10 degrees). Open to other options when you visit - so long as its neat and tidy / we can discuss... Pictures... pic 1 Is where it is to be installed. Pic 2 is the other side of wall... pic 3 shows roof
