A technician kneels outside next to an air conditioning unit, using tools for maintenance or repair. Gauges and equipment are placed nearby against the wall.

Prepare Home for Split System Installation by clearing access, confirming electrical capacity, and planning unit locations. Good prep shortens install time, protects interiors, and ensures a clean, compliant finish.

1. Confirm Locations and Clear Access

Mark preferred indoor/outdoor positions and move furniture for ladders and tools. Clear pathways from the entry to work areas.

2. Verify Electrical Requirements

Ensure the switchboard has capacity for a dedicated circuit/RCBO. Share any previous electrical reports or renovation notes.

3. Protect Furnishings and Floors

Cover nearby furniture, art, and soft furnishings; lay drop sheets where drilling will occur. Dust control keeps cleanup minimal.

4. Plan Drainage and Penetrations

Discuss condensate drain routes and wall/roof penetrations in advance. Good routing prevents leaks and visible conduits.

5. Arrange Parking and Pets

Reserve a nearby park and keep pets/kids away from work zones. Safe, efficient access speeds up commissioning.

Pro Tip

Do a quick pre‑start walk‑through with the installer to confirm heights, clearances, and drain direction before drilling begins.
