Indicative ranges, not a quotation. Bothasig installs are mostly straightforward. The two things to settle are the electrical circuit and a condenser position with real clearance.

Compare Local QuotesWhat Drives Aircon Work Here
- Compact 1970s housing. Small rooms that are generally a 9000 BTU job, where oversizing produces short cycling rather than better cooling.
- Small plots and close boundaries. Condensers often end up near a neighbouring wall, so airflow clearance and noise both need thinking about before mounting.
- Original electrical boards. Frequently full, making a dedicated circuit a common quoted line.
- Uniform housing stock. Streets built to a consistent plan, so contractors who know the area quote quickly and accurately.
- Hot inland afternoons. Away from the coast, the peak is higher and run times longer than in the Atlantic suburbs.
Response Times and After-Hours
Well covered by Northern Suburbs contractors, and an easy area to get three comparable quotes in.
If water is running out of an indoor unit, switch it off at the isolator before anything else. The water damage almost always costs more than the repair does.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size unit for a Bothasig bedroom?
Usually 9000 BTU. Rooms in this stock are compact, and a larger unit cools too quickly to remove humidity, leaving the room cold and clammy with the compressor short cycling.
How close to the boundary can the outdoor unit go?
It needs genuine clearance in front of the discharge and room for air to reach the coil. Beyond airflow, think about which room is on the other side of that wall before choosing the position.
Will my board take an aircon circuit?
Often not without a new way. Original boards in this stock are frequently full, so a dedicated circuit and isolator is a normal quoted item.
Do you install the aircons yourselves?
No. This is a free quote service. LEADERR APPROVED local aircon installers and HVAC contractors do the work, quote you directly and carry the workmanship.
Do I need a dedicated electrical circuit for an aircon?
For anything from about 12000 BTU upward it is the norm, and most installers will insist on it. Running an aircon off a general plug circuit works until that circuit is loaded, and then it trips.
