Custom Ducted Air Conditioning for Gold Coast Homes

Ducted air conditioning is a major upgrade for your home, so the design matters. Aircon M8 designs and installs residential ducted systems for homeowners who want whole-home comfort, practical zoning, clean installation, and clear advice before committing.

Aircon M8 considers the air conditioning design and electrical requirements together from the start, so the system is planned properly before the quote is locked in.

Is Ducted Right for Your Home?

Ducted air conditioning can be a good fit if you want:

  • Whole-home cooling and heating
  • Less visible equipment inside the home
  • Zone control for bedrooms and living areas
  • A quieter, cleaner look than multiple wall units
  • A long-term comfort upgrade for the property

Not every home needs ducted. If a split system or multi-split makes more sense, Aircon M8 will tell you.

Designed Around Your Home

Every ducted quote needs a proper look at the home. The right system depends on the floor plan, ceiling space, insulation, window exposure, room sizes, outdoor unit position, and how your family actually uses the house.

  • Heat load and room sizing
  • Roof space and access
  • Indoor and outdoor unit location
  • Duct layout and airflow
  • Zone layout
  • Return air position
  • Electrical capacity
  • Controller and smart control options

Replacing an Old Ducted System

If your current ducted system is old, noisy, inefficient, leaking, or no longer cooling properly, Aircon M8 can assess whether repair or replacement makes better financial sense.

Replacement work can include safe decommissioning, removal of old equipment where practical, assessment of existing ductwork, new indoor and outdoor units, electrical checks, commissioning, and handover.

Correct Sizing Matters

A ducted system that's undersized will run hard all summer, fall behind on the hottest days and chew through power. A system that's oversized will short-cycle, struggle to manage humidity and cost more both upfront and to run.

We size ducted systems based on total floor area, ceiling type, insulation, window aspect, zone layout and how the home is used. The result is a system that holds temperature comfortably without thrashing on full output every afternoon.

If you want to understand how those factors work before we quote, our air conditioner sizing guide explains them in plain English.

Ducted Pricing — A Real Example

Ducted is always quoted after a site check, because the roof space, the layout and the zoning all change the job. But "it depends" is a useless answer when you're trying to budget, so here's an actual system with an actual price.

Brand new ducted install · ~100m² single-storey home

$12,899 inc GST
  • Fujitsu 12.5kW single-phase ducted system
  • 7 outlets
  • 4 zones with 4 room sensors
  • Touchscreen wall controller with mobile app control
  • Supply, install, commissioning and handover

That's roughly 100m² of air conditioned space on one level. If your home is bigger, has two storeys, needs three-phase power, has a tight or hot roof space, or you want more zones, it moves up from there. Smaller or simpler jobs come in under it.

What moves the price

  • Floor area and how many outlets and zones you actually need
  • Single-phase vs three-phase supply, and whether the switchboard can carry it
  • Roof space — height, access, and how far the ducting has to run
  • Two-storey homes, where the upstairs run is the hard part
  • Removing and disposing of an old ducted system, if you're replacing

Send through a floor plan and we'll give you a ballpark before anyone comes out. The fixed quote comes after the site check.

Pricing and Process

Every ducted quote is fixed before work starts, and it spells out what is included and what would count as an extra. No moving target once we are on the roof.

A deposit is required to secure the equipment and installation date.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a ducted install take?

Most residential ducted installs or replacements take one to two days, depending on roof access, system size, and electrical work required.

Can you quote from a floor plan?

A floor plan helps with an estimate, but ducted systems usually need a site check before a final fixed quote.

Can you add zones?

Yes. Zoning is planned during the design stage so bedrooms and living areas can be controlled sensibly.
