Installation FAQs

Common questions about installing in Cairns.

How much does air conditioning installation cost in Cairns?

A split system installed in Cairns typically costs from around $1,550 for a small 2.5kW back-to-back changeover up to about $3,500 for a larger system, while a whole-home ducted install typically costs from $20,000. Every home is different, so we provide a free site inspection and an itemised quote with no hidden costs.

How do I choose the right air conditioning system for my home?

We help you choose based on your home's size, layout, cooling needs and budget, whether that's a single split system, multi-split, ducted or cassette setup. We recommend the right system for your space rather than just one brand, and free honest advice is part of every quote.

How soon can you install my air conditioner?

Most air conditioning installations in Cairns can be scheduled within 1 to 2 weeks, depending on system availability and your preferred date. Urgent installs can often be accommodated, so let us know your timing when you book your free quote.

Do you install reverse cycle air conditioning for heating?

Yes. Our split, multi-split, ducted and cassette systems all come with reverse cycle functionality for efficient cooling in summer and heating in winter, which is popular with Atherton Tablelands homes where it gets cooler. Cooling-only systems are also available if heating isn't needed.

Will a new air conditioner lower my power bill in Cairns?

Usually yes, especially if your unit is more than about 10 years old. A modern inverter air conditioner can use roughly 30% less electricity than an older fixed-speed unit for the same cooling, and each extra energy star is worth around 15 to 25% less power again. With Cairns power now around 34 cents per kWh, that adds up — see our old vs new guide.
