Energy-Efficient Split System Air Conditioners for Ballarat Homes Split System Air Conditioners in Ballarat
Split systems are a smart and affordable way to keep your Ballarat home comfortable, especially when a ducted system is not the most suitable option. In homes with brick walls or concrete slabs, installing ducted air conditioning can be more complex and may require extra building works such as bulkheads or false ceilings. A split system provides a simpler, more cost-effective alternative, delivering dependable heating and cooling without the need for major renovations. With more than 10 years of experience, we can help you find the right solution for your home, whether you need efficient climate control for a single room, an open-plan living area, or multiple spaces throughout the property.

First spoke to Scott on the phone, wasn’t sure if we wanted to do a multi head split, or ducted.
Scott gave me a quote for both no dramas and went over both over the phone.
Locked in the job, and Matt attended the site that week for an inspection (we live in Warrnambool 2 hours away!) he explained the best option in regards to zoning in plain English and helped us make the right decision, the job was scheduled in for 2.5 weeks later.
Matt contacted me 2 days prior to install day just to confirm everything.
When the team were on site, they were professional, and when the job was completed the guys took me through everything and answered any questions that I had. Even asked where our Vaccum was to clean up!
Highly recommended these guys!
Thanks again we are super stocked!
Matthew for instant and effective action to secure a rebate that I was unaware of associated with the work they were doing for us. A big money saver!
Nate for a seamless install of a new Fujitsu split system air con for us. Such a polite, amiable, flexible, effective and responsive plumber who went well 'above and beyond' on the day. I received last minute info. from another supplier and as a result Nate and his very able colleague installed the condenser way up on the wall instead of on the ground. No grumbles, just 'no probs' action.
The Fujitsu, which is tested and recommended by Too Hot to Handle is a dream come true. Peace and quiet (and ripping cooling) from an air con at last!!!
Love 'Too Hot...'. It is just the right size to get expert attention, economies of scale for good pricing and powerful and positive on site action.
I plan to come back for seconds soon with a HWS install and probably further work at another location. Highly recommended for quality, price, effectiveness and an excellent result!
Happy Mike 🙂
Competitive Quote when I was searching to install the Reclaim Units Hot Water System. Russel was able to guide me through the differences between the options. Great communication before, during and after installation date.
The team keep me updated during the process of what is happening and answered all of our questions. Adam make sure we understand how the unit work and safety. Amazing. Thanks Adam and his team mate.
Thank you team for your support and amazing work, we can now have hot showers after a while 😆
Too Hot To Handke: Too Good To Be True!!
A pleasure ti work with. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
They moved my appointment to a much earlier than original date which was wonderful.
Mat and his young apprentice arrived with smiles on their faces. They did a brilliant job which was challenging.
Mat was a master at teaching his apprentice. It reminded me of "Karate Kid". I loved hearing Mat telling his apprentice such positive things to help put him at ease and stay focused.
I think kindness goes a long way to helping young people learn and end up loving the job they do. Well done Mat.
I am very happy with the whole experience. Definitely love my new aircon which will change my life when the heat starts. As I usually just want to runaway to Antarctica...
Thankyou "Too Hot To Handle" for improving my well-being.
😁❤️🖖
The team at Too Hot To Handle provided excellent customer service while helping me find the best solution to cool and heat my home office. They took the time to understand my needs and offered clear, practical advice. The installers and electricians were friendly, punctual, and informative - everything ran smoothly and professionally. Great job, guys! Highly recommend.
I would recommend Too Hot To Handle any time!
Really happy with the price. Top quality product and installation.
Couldn't be happier.
From the initial call with Scott I could tell they would be a class act straight away. He was honest & up front about what would be the most cost-effective & efficient option for us, rather than pushing us to settle on a bigger, overpowered unit just to maximise rebate opportunities.
The administration team were very quick to call and arrange a time for the install. Very professional.
The installer, Pete, turned up ahead of time and was very friendly. He and his colleague Jack did an awesome job. Super tidy install and left absolutely no trace of mess. The electrician Jack was also in & out quickly with no mess.
Overall a very very good experience and I highly recommend Too Hot To Handle for anyone on the fence about upgrading their home.
