FAQs Icon
  • Is ducted air conditioning more efficient than split systems?

    Ducted systems can be more efficient when cooling multiple rooms, especially when fitted with zoning controls. Instead of running several separate units, ducted air uses one central system that distributes cooled air via concealed ducts. When correctly designed, this setup minimises energy loss and allows targeted room control, offering comfort and savings over time.

  • Can ducted air conditioning be installed in an existing home?

    Yes, ducted systems can be retrofitted into existing homes, though it depends on available roof or floor cavity space. Installation may involve modifying ceilings, walls or electrical systems to accommodate ducts and vents. A licensed technician will assess your home to determine feasibility, layout options and whether zoning or inverter features would benefit your space.

  • How much does ducted air conditioning cost to install and run?

    Installation costs vary based on property size, number of zones and the chosen brand. While upfront costs are higher than split systems, ducted air can be more economical long-term for larger homes. Running costs depend on usage, insulation, system efficiency and climate. Choosing a system with a good energy rating helps lower ongoing electricity bills.

Seamless Whole-Home Cooling

Ducted air conditioning is perfect for cooling multiple zones with a single, central unit. We install ceiling vents and concealed ductwork to deliver clean, quiet air throughout the space.


Zoning options allow for room-by-room control, helping reduce energy use. These systems are ideal for new builds, renovations and commercial environments where uniform comfort is key.
