Ducted air-conditioning systems can be expensive and unnecessary for smaller homes.
With no extensive installation work and easy mounting, wall mounted split system air-conditioning systems are the cool (warm in winter) and
cost-effective solution. And because they exclusively heat and cool individual spaces, they do not waste energy on unnecessary heating or cooling; meaning lower energy costs.
Trust our team of Perth split system air-conditioning experts to get yours up and running as it should be, and keep it that way all year round.
Regular servicing and maintenance of your split system air-conditioning system will ensure small issues never turn into big ones.
It’s important to have a fully licensed, experienced and safe electrician helping you control the air in your home.
A split system air conditioner consists of two main components, an indoor unit mounted on the wall and an outdoor unit connected via electrical wiring and refrigerant pipes.
This type of air conditioning system is ideal for cooling or heating individual rooms or specific areas of your home, making it a cost-effective option for many Perth households.
In comparison, ducted air conditioning is designed for whole-home cooling, distributing air through ducts across multiple rooms. You’ll notice the difference by seeing the roof air vents versus a large white box-like product on the wall. Split system air conditioning is generally the more common residential air conditioning solution.
Key Differences:
Choosing a split system air conditioning system comes with a range of benefits.
Split systems are more affordable to install than ducted air conditioning, making them ideal for homeowners working within a budget.
Modern systems use inverter technology, which adjusts output based on demand (cools a hot room automatically, helping reduce energy consumption and lower energy bills).
Most systems can be installed within a single installation day, minimising disruption to your home or business.
With reverse cycle air conditioning, your system can cool in summer and provide warmth in winter (best of both worlds).
Great for cooling specific rooms during hot Perth summers, without wasting money on cooling the entire house.

Split systems are known for their energy efficiency, especially when cooling or heating individual rooms rather than an entire house. This helps keep energy costs manageable over time. It’s hard to give exact numbers since results change between brands, but here are some general numbers to give you an idea. Most modern split system air conditioners are surprisingly affordable to run.
For a typical home in Perth, you can expect running costs of:
Around $0.25–$0.40 per hour for a small bedroom system
Around $0.50–$0.80 per hour for a standard living area
Around $0.70–$1.20 per hour for larger open-plan spaces
This means most households spend $25–$80 per month, depending on usage and system size. It’s also going to be a lot higher during those scorching summer months.
Frequently Asked Questions
As the name suggests, a split system air-conditioner is actually split into two components: one inside and the other outside.
Mounted on your wall close to the ceiling, the indoor unit is responsible for delivering cool air to your home.
The outdoor box is where the air works its magic. The two are connected via high-pressure gas pipes and electrical wires.

Most air conditioning units will have a plastic flap that can be pulled up to expose the grid filter within the unit. Simply slide the grid filter out and give it a clean with a vacuum or wash it in lukewarm water before drying completely.
