Specialists in Multi-Head Split Systems

For year-round climate control tailored to each room in your home, a multi-head split system air conditioner is an ideal solution.

These air conditioning systems are perfect when a ducted setup isn't practical – perhaps due to space limitations or building restrictions – yet you still want efficient heating and cooling throughout your home.

A multi-head split system works much like a traditional split system in that it features both indoor and outdoor units. The key difference? Only one outdoor unit can power multiple indoor units – up to eight, in fact – giving you precise temperature control in different rooms simultaneously.

Each indoor unit can be individually adjusted, allowing everyone in the household to enjoy their preferred comfort levels. It’s a flexible, energy-efficient alternative to ducted air conditioning, offering smart climate management without major structural modifications.

What are the Benefits of a Multi-Head Split System AC?

Beyond their core heating and cooling capabilities, multi-head split systems come packed with practical advantages that make them a smart choice for modern homes:

Each indoor unit can be sized appropriately for the specific room it's placed in, ensuring maximum efficiency.
Inverter-driven technology helps maintain a consistent temperature while keeping energy use low.
A single outdoor unit powers all connected indoor heads, reducing external clutter and saving space.
Enjoy personalised climate control in every room, with the ability to set different temperatures for different zones.
Skip the cost and complexity of installing ductwork throughout your ceiling.

No matter your home's layout or comfort requirements, Metropolitan Heating and Cooling can customise the ideal multi-head split system to suit your lifestyle and budget.

We Install All Leading Brands

Thinking about switching to a multi-head split system instead of a ducted air conditioner? Metropolitan Heating and Cooling is here to help.

Whether you're planning a brand-new installation or upgrading an old system, our experienced team delivers tailored solutions packed with modern features and energy efficiency.

We supply and install top-tier multi split systems from the most trusted names in the industry, including:

Installing a multi-head split system isn’t a DIY job. It requires professional handling, especially when dealing with refrigerant gases and determining the optimal unit placement.

Our qualified technicians carry out thorough assessments to ensure your system is sized correctly and positioned for peak performance and comfort in every room.

The Importance of Regular Maintenance

To keep your multi-head split system operating efficiently, regular servicing is essential. With multiple indoor units and one outdoor component working together, routine maintenance ensures reliable performance and long-term energy savings.

At Metropolitan Heating and Cooling, we recommend booking a professional service at least once a year to avoid breakdowns and preserve your system's efficiency.

Our licensed technicians are available 24/7, ready to provide prompt maintenance and inspections – even within the hour*, with no extra fees for evenings, weekends or holidays. Plus, all work comes backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Some tasks, like regassing or system diagnostics, must be carried out by a qualified professional. However, homeowners can help by cleaning the filters regularly. Clean filters improve indoor air quality and airflow, allowing each room to heat or cool effectively.

If you use your system daily, aim to clean the filters monthly. Otherwise, every three months should do the trick.

How Much Does a Multi-Head Split System Cost?

When it comes to the cost of installing a multi-head split system, several key factors influence the final price. The overall expense will depend on a range of considerations, including:

The brand and model you choose
How many indoor units are required
The kilowatt output needed for your home
Whether the system uses inverter or non-inverter technology
The installation complexity, such as the distance between the indoor and outdoor units

Because no two homes are the same, pricing can vary significantly from one installation to another. That’s why it’s important to assess your specific needs and budget before making a decision.

Frequently Asked Questions About Multi-Head Split Systems

Do you have any questions about multi-head split system air conditioners? Keep reading for answers to some of the most commonly asked questions right here.

How many indoor units can I connect to a multi-head split system?

You can typically connect up to eight indoor units to a single outdoor unit, depending on the brand and model. This gives you the flexibility to heat or cool multiple rooms individually without needing a bulky ducted system.

Can I control each indoor unit separately?

Yes, that’s one of the biggest advantages of a multi-head split system. Each indoor unit has its own remote or wall controller, so you can set different temperatures in different rooms based on your comfort needs.

Is a multi-head split system more energy efficient than ducted air conditioning?

It can be. Multi-head systems allow you to heat or cool only the rooms you're using, which helps save on energy costs. They also use inverter technology to maintain stable temperatures efficiently.
