What Size Air Conditioner Do You Need?
The right capacity is critical. An undersized unit will struggle and waste energy. An oversized unit short-cycles and creates humidity issues.
| Room Size | Capacity | Typical Room |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 20m² | 2.5kW | Bedrooms, studies, home offices |
| 20–35m² | 3.5–5.0kW | Medium bedrooms, small living areas |
| 35–55m² | 6.0–7.1kW | Large living rooms, open-plan areas |
| 55–70m² | 8.0–9.5kW | Large open-plan living/kitchen/dining |
| 70m²+ | 10kW+ or multi-system | Consider ducted or multi-head split |
These are guidelines only. Actual requirements depend on ceiling height, insulation, windows, and sun exposure. Aircool provides free on-site heat load calculations to determine the exact capacity for your space. Book your free assessment →
Air Conditioning Installation Cost Factors — Melbourne
Every installation is different. Here are the key factors that determine your cost.
System Type
The biggest factor. Split systems are most affordable. Ducted systems and VRF/VRV involve more complex design and labour.
Installation Complexity
Back-to-back installations (units on either side of the same wall) are simplest. Extended pipe runs, multi-storey access, scaffolding, and limited outdoor space increase costs.
Electrical Work
Each unit requires a dedicated circuit with isolator and RCD. Older homes may need switchboard upgrades.
Brand & Model
Premium brands like Daikin and Mitsubishi Electric cost more upfront but offer superior efficiency, quieter operation, and longer warranties — saving you money long-term.
Old System Removal
Removing an existing air conditioner or gas heater adds cost but may be required for VEU rebate eligibility.
| System Type | Cost | VEU |
|---|---|---|
| Single Split | $ | ✓ |
| Multi-Head Split | $$ | ✓ |
| Ducted Reverse Cycle | $$$ | ✓ |
| Evaporative Cooling | $$ | — |
| VRF / VRV | $$$$ | ✓ |
VEU rebates can significantly reduce your total cost. Eligible Victorian households may save up to $8,000. Learn more about VEU rebates →

What Our Customers Say
Real reviews from Melbourne homeowners who chose Aircool
"Absolute legends! Had our old gas heater replaced with a new Midea ducted system. The boys were super professional, cleaned up after themselves and even showed us how to use the controller. Saved a heap with the VEU rebate too. Cheers!"
"Really impressed with the whole process. Got three quotes and Aircool was the most thorough. They actually took the time to explain the different options. Installation was done in a day and the house is so much more comfortable now. Top service!"
"Can't recommend these guys enough. We were dreading replacing our ducted heating but they made it so easy. Sorted all the rebate paperwork, turned up when they said they would, and the new system is brilliant. Actually looking forward to our next power bill!"
"Had a split system installed in our bedroom. The installer was lovely, very respectful of our home and explained everything clearly. Price was fair and the unit works perfectly. Would definitely use them again for the rest of the house."
"Finally got rid of our ancient gas heater! The Aircool team were fantastic from start to finish. They handled all the VEU stuff which was a huge relief. New reverse cycle is whisper quiet and keeps the whole house comfortable. Stoked with the result."
"Great experience all round. Quick response to my enquiry, competitive quote, and professional installation. The team even helped move some furniture to get the job done properly. Really appreciate the attention to detail. Highly recommend!"
