Air conditioning Mount Martha
What Mount Martha homes need.
Mount Martha sits on the bay and catches the weather, and many of its homes are large, on sloping blocks, or used as holiday homes. Each of those changes how a cooling system should be chosen and installed.
01 / Salt air
Salt air is hard on equipment.
Homes along the Esplanade and near the foreshore sit in salt-laden air all year. A standard outdoor unit corrodes faster there, and a corroded coil loses efficiency long before it fails. We specify coastal-grade units or coated coils and position them out of the spray and the prevailing wind.
02 / Large homes
Large homes on sloping blocks.
Many Mount Martha homes are big, split-level and built to a view. Ducted refrigerated systems suit them well, but the zoning, the duct runs and the airflow to the far rooms need to be designed, not guessed. The outdoor unit position matters too, for noise and for exposure.
03 / Holiday homes
Holiday homes have a different job to do.
A weekender sits empty for weeks, then has to be comfortable within an hour of you arriving. One or two split systems with remote control are usually the right answer, and they cost less to install and to run than a whole-home system you rarely use.
What a Mount Martha installation includes:
- A coastal-grade outdoor unit, or a coated coil, for homes near the water
- A sheltered outdoor position, out of the salt spray and prevailing wind
- Sizing and airflow worked out for the actual house, not a catalogue table
- Remote control set up where the home sits empty between visits
- Work done under ARC refrigerant licence L062149 and VBA registration 50861
Choosing a system
Split, ducted or add-on cooling for your Mount Martha home.
A/01
Split system air conditioning
One room or zone, heating and cooling, from $1,600 installed. A three-room multi-head from $4,990. The right answer for bedrooms, extensions, holiday homes and period homes where ducting is difficult, and the most energy-efficient way to condition one space.
Split systems →
A/02
Ducted refrigerated air conditioning
One concealed system for the whole house, zoned so you only run the rooms in use. From $6,990 for a small house, and most Mount Martha homes come in around $11,000. The system of choice for larger full-time family homes.
Ducted refrigerated →
A/03
Add-on cooling to ducted heating
Already have gas ducted heating? We can add refrigerated cooling to the existing ductwork from $4,900, so one set of vents does summer and winter. Whether the ducts are up to it is the first thing we check at the assessment.

A/04
Gas ducted and hydronic heating
For homes that want a dedicated heating system, we install gas ducted heating and hydronic central heating as well. Ask at the assessment if you want heating and cooling quoted together.

How we work
Every job starts with an assessment.
We come to your home, look at the building properly, ask how you use each space, and recommend a system that suits it. Every installation is done under ARC refrigerant licence L062149 and VBA registration 50861.
i.
We visit
At your Mount Martha home, not over the phone. We check the roof cavity, the ceiling space and how exposed the outdoor unit position is.
ii.
We ask
How you use each room, so the system fits the way you live. A weekender and a full-time family home need different things.
iii.
We quote
A clear, itemised written quote. Where there is a real choice, we lay out the options and what each one costs.
iv.
We install
A clean install on an honest timeline, by the same technicians from the first visit to handover, with our workmanship behind it.

Reviews
What customers say.
Nine Google reviews so far, all five stars, several of them from Peninsula homes. Customers mention clear advice, technicians who turn up on time and a clean site afterwards. Our job is the comfort you were promised, not a sale and a quick exit.

Mount Martha FAQs
The honest answers, up front.
If your question is not here, call us on 1800 577 522, Monday to Friday 8am to 6pm, or email and we will answer it straight.
How much does air conditioning cost in Mount Martha?
Split systems start from $1,600 for one room and $4,990 for a three-room multi-head. Whole-home ducted cooling starts from $6,990 for a small house and around $11,000 for most houses, and add-on cooling to existing ducted heating from $4,900. The firm figure comes from the free assessment. See all our prices.
Split system or ducted for a Mount Martha home?
For a holiday home or a smaller house, one to three well-placed splits do the job for less and cost less to run. For a large full-time family home, zoned ducted refrigerated air conditioning gives even comfort in every room and is usually worth the higher installation cost.
Does salt air affect air conditioning near the Mount Martha foreshore?
Yes. Salt-laden air corrodes a standard outdoor unit, and a corroded coil loses efficiency before it fails. For homes near the water we specify a coastal-grade unit or a coated coil and site it out of the spray and wind. Further back from the bay, a standard unit sited well is fine.
How long does an installation take?
A single-head split system is typically a one-day install. Multi-head systems, concealed line runs and whole-home ducted systems take longer, and we give you an honest timeline with the quote so you can plan around it, which matters for a holiday home you are only at on weekends.
Do you do air conditioning repairs or servicing in Mount Martha?
No. We install and replace heating and cooling systems, and we do not do repairs, servicing or commercial work. If your system has a fault, a service company is the right call. If it is old enough that repair no longer makes sense, we will give you an honest replacement quote. Clean the filters each season and most systems look after themselves.
