Air conditioning & heating · Melbourne
Climate systems for considered Melbourne homes.
Smart Climate designs and installs heating and cooling systems for homes that have been thought about — from the Mornington Peninsula through bayside Melbourne to the inner east and north-east.
01 · Cooling
Three ways to cool a Melbourne home.
The right choice depends on your home’s size, layout, ceiling space, and how you live in it. We specify the system that fits the home — not the easiest one to install.
core systems
SPLIT SYSTEM
A/01
Split system air conditioning
Targeted cooling for individual rooms or zones. Best for retrofits, extensions, and homes where ducting isn’t viable — or where you want independent control of one space.
- —Quiet inverter compressors, properly sized to the room volume
- —Concealed pipework and clean wall penetrations as standard
- —Multi-head systems available for two-to-five room layouts
Best for
Retrofits · extensions · single-room comfort
A/02
Ducted refrigerated air conditioning
Whole-of-home temperature control through concealed ductwork. The benchmark for premium Melbourne homes — quiet, zoned, and consistent from room to room.
- —Designed into the build — bulkheads, ceiling lines, register placement
- —Zoning so every room runs only when it needs to
- —Pairs cleanly with ducted gas heating to share the network
Best for
New builds · renovations · whole-of-home comfort
DUCTED REFRIGERATED
EVAPORATIVE
A/03
Evaporative cooling
Energy-efficient cooling well-suited to Melbourne’s dry summer heat. Lower running costs, fresh-air operation, and a smaller footprint on the roof line.
- —Up to 80% less running cost than refrigerated cooling
- —Continuously fresh, filtered outside air — not recycled
- —Roof unit specified and positioned to suit the architecture
Best for
Hot, dry days · larger homes · lower running costs
02 · Heating
Three ways to heat through a Melbourne winter.
Melbourne winters demand serious heating. We install three core systems, often integrated with the cooling above to share ductwork and controls.
core systems
B/01
Ducted gas heating
Fast, even warmth distributed through ducted vents. The most popular heating choice for larger Melbourne homes — especially when paired with refrigerated cooling.
- —High-efficiency 6-star Brivis, Braemar & Bonaire units
- —Floor or ceiling register layouts to suit the slab type
- —Shared ductwork with refrigerated cooling where viable
Best for
Larger homes · long winters · paired systems
DUCTED GAS
CENTRAL HEATING
B/02
Hydronic & central heating
Whole-of-home solutions for homes prioritising comfort, efficiency and quiet operation. A premium choice for new builds and considered renovations.
- —In-slab and trench-convector hydronic configurations
- —Quiet operation — no noticeable fan or duct noise
- —Zoned by room with individual temperature control
Best for
New builds · renovations · the quietest heat
B/03
Space heaters & gas log fires
Gas log fires and feature heaters that anchor a living space — heat output and design statement in one piece. Specified, supplied and installed end-to-end.
- —Real Flame, Heat & Glo, Escea — flued and unflued
- —Hearth, mantel and surround coordination with your builder
- —Smart controls and timed start-up for cold mornings
Best for
Living rooms · feature walls · design-led spaces

Why Smart Climate
Specified, not sold.
The right system, not the easy one
We design the system that suits your home — not the one with the highest margin or the fastest install. If a smaller system is the right answer, we’ll tell you.
Premium brands, properly installed
We work with leading equipment manufacturers and refuse to cut corners on commissioning. A great unit installed poorly is still a poor system.
Your time, respected
Clean job sites. Honest timelines. One point of contact from quote through to handover — and a service plan after that.
Service area
Servicing premium Melbourne homes.
Based in Melbourne, we service residential properties from the Mornington Peninsula through bayside Melbourne, the inner east, and into the north-east.
