Pricing guide
Costs mainly reflect how complex the diagnosis is and what the system requires. Simple component-level repairs are typically less expensive than work on ducted or multi-split systems or any sealed-system tasks that need refrigerant recovery/charging or specialist tools. Access, parts availability and after-hours attendance can also increase the overall scope.
System type and size
Split, multi-split and ducted systems usually take more diagnostic time and coordination than a single indoor/outdoor split.
Sealed-system complexity and refrigerant work
Faults that involve the sealed refrigerant circuit often require specialist recovery and charging equipment, adding time and technical steps.
Access and installation location
Rooftop condensers, ceiling cavities or restricted access to indoor units typically make the job more involved and time-consuming.
Parts availability and replacement needs
Common component swaps are usually straightforward, but rare parts or multi-unit replacements can extend lead times and labour.
Timing and after-hours attendance
Urgent callouts or work outside standard hours generally attract higher rates and may change how quickly a job can be scheduled.
