Split Systems

Split System Air Conditioning

A split system pairs one outdoor unit with an indoor head to heat and cool a single room or open-plan area. It's the most common choice in Melbourne homes because it's efficient, quiet, quick to install and reverse cycle. One unit covers both winter and summer. Where you need more than one room, a multi-split runs several indoor heads from the one outdoor unit.

Wall-mounted, floor, cassette and multi-split units for a single room or a few rooms. All reverse cycle, all Mitsubishi Electric.
