5.0 393 Reviews Mount Duneed straddles the growing Armstrong Creek estates and older rural acreages that have been here for generations, making it one of the most varied suburbs in greater Geelong. The landscape rises and falls around the headline ridge, which means homes catch wind differently depending on which side of the suburb they sit on, and sun exposure varies significantly too. We design every Mount Duneed climate and hot water install around the specific house and site rather than assuming a one size fits all template.
Free after sale support for 5 years on all manufacturer warranty claims & 7 years’ coverage on faults and labour on all air conditioners and heating systems.
With over ten years in the business, Too Hot To Handle has successfully installed more than 10,000 heating and cooling systems across Geelong.

For the newer Mount Duneed estate homes, zoned ducted reverse cycle is the standard and highly effective approach. We plan zones so the main living area, bedrooms and any secondary living room each run independently, which keeps running costs in check on long hot weeks. Ductwork sizing and insulation matter here because some homes sit in more exposed elevated positions where the roof cavity temperature swings can be significant. Older rural homes in the area also benefit, though those often need more careful planning around existing layouts and roof access.

Split systems are a good fit for smaller Mount Duneed homes, secondary dwellings and the converted outbuildings that many rural blocks have. A single quality inverter split often covers a one bedroom cottage completely, and for larger homes, targeted splits can fix specific problem rooms without reworking the whole ducted system. Coastal specification is worth considering for homes closer to the bay or sitting in particularly exposed positions, where salt air can shorten the life of standard outdoor units.

Many Mount Duneed rural homes are off mains gas, which makes heat pump hot water an easy win over LPG and electric storage. The newer estate homes built with gas are increasingly looking at the swap too, as ongoing supply charges make the change pay back quickly. We apply rebates, size tanks for genuine household demand and place outdoor units thoughtfully so the compressor noise is not heard from living areas or bedrooms. Pairing with solar is particularly effective on the larger lots with room for a full rooftop array.
