Saltline Air & Refrigeration Ducted Air Conditioning
One system, hidden in the roof, cooling the whole house evenly and controlled from a single touchpad. Ducted lives or dies on the duct design and the zoning, so we calculate the load per zone and size the ducting to it, rather than running one fan flat out and calling it a system.
Ducted or split? It depends on the house.
Cheaper, simpler, room by room. No roof space needed.
What this job includes.
- ✓New ducted installs for builds, renovations and replacements
- ✓Room-by-room zoning so you only condition what you use
- ✓Correctly sized ductwork, returns and grille placement
- ✓Three-phase power and switchboard upgrades where the load needs it
- ✓Coastal coil spec on the outdoor condenser
The same 7 lines, every time.
Whatever the surface, your quote splits the work the same honest way, so you can see exactly what you’re paying for.
- 1 Heat-load calculation. Room by room: floor area, glazing, orientation, ceiling height and insulation. The kW comes from the calc, not a guess.
- 2 Equipment named. Exact make, model, series and capacity on the quote. “A good Japanese one” is not a model number.
- 3 Placement plan. Where the indoor and outdoor units go: airflow, noise, service access and how far from the salt.
- 4 Coastal coil spec. Salt-zone installs get a blue-fin or anti-corrosion-treated condenser. The standard coil is what rusts out in three years.
- 5 Electrical + dedicated circuit. Single-phase or three-phase, the isolator, the circuit and the switchboard check. We hold the electrical licence, so it is our line, not yours.
- 6 Pipework, drainage + penetrations. Refrigerant line length and lagging, the condensate run, and every wall penetration sealed against weather and vermin.
- 7 Commissioning + compliance. Gas charge weighed and logged, system commissioned to spec, ARC paperwork issued and the manufacturer warranty registered.
What happens, step by step.
Site visit + load calc
We measure the rooms, check the glazing and the switchboard, and run the heat-load calculation before we quote a kW.
Itemised quote
The seven-line install quote: sized equipment named, coil spec, electrical, pipework and commissioning each on their own line.
Equipment + contract
You sign off the model and the scope. We order, confirm the install window and take a deposit on letterhead.
Install day
Indoor and outdoor units mounted, lines run and lagged, penetrations sealed, condensate drained to fall. Drop sheets and a clean-down.
Electrical + commissioning
Dedicated circuit and isolator connected, system evacuated and charged by weight, then commissioned and tested under load.
Handover + paperwork
We walk you through the controls, hand over the ARC compliance paperwork, register the warranty and book the first service.
The paperwork behind the price.
ARC AU45782, QBCC and NSW licensed, Public liability to $20M, and a 6-year workmanship workmanship warranty, all in writing, all on request.
Mara walks through exactly what’s covered: the refrigerant authorisation you can verify, the licences for both sides of the border, the cover that protects your property, and the warranty that names its own exclusions instead of hiding them.
