Mount Martha’s larger homes mostly run ducted reverse-cycle systems, with split systems in extensions, studios and older beach houses that have not yet been rebuilt. Ducted and multi-head systems draw serious current, and on a single-phase supply already carrying a pool and a heat pump hot water service, the electrical side needs to be designed before the unit is chosen — not after the deposit is paid.

Reverse-cycle air conditioning needs a safe, correctly sized electrical supply before it can cool and heat reliably. Impulse Electrical completes the electrical side of split-system and air conditioning installations, including dedicated circuits, isolators, switchboard checks and neat cabling. We work with refrigeration installers or your chosen technician to make sure the unit is powered safely and compliantly. In Mount Martha, peninsula homes face hot northerlies, cool winter mornings and strong afternoon sun, so correct electrical sizing matters for comfort and reliability. Impulse Electrical is fully licensed — A Grade A53308 and REC 25266 — with $25M public liability and a Certificate of Electrical Safety supplied on every job.

From our Dromana base we work alongside your chosen refrigeration installer, or supply the electrical side for a system you have already bought. The circuit, isolator and switchboard work are tested and covered by a COES, so the installer can commission the unit on a safe, compliant supply.

Why choose Impulse Electrical in Mount Martha?

Ducted systems, supply capacity and the switchboard

Every air conditioning system needs a dedicated circuit from the switchboard sized for the outdoor unit, an isolator switch beside the unit so it can be safely disconnected for service, and RCD protection. Ducted and multi-head systems in Mount Martha’s bigger homes draw far more than a single split, so we check the mains and the board first and advise whether the supply can carry the system alongside everything else in the house — sometimes the answer is a board upgrade, occasionally it is three-phase.

Outdoor units on the cliff-top and in renovations

Salt air is hard on outdoor units and the electrical fittings around them. On the cliff-top streets, isolators and conduit should be corrosion-resistant, mounted clear of spray, and positioned so the unit can be cleaned. In renovations we run the circuit and fit the isolator before the plaster goes on, and coordinate outdoor unit placement with the builder and the refrigeration installer so nobody is cutting into a finished wall.

Air Conditioning in Mount Martha — FAQs

Do I need an electrician as well as an air conditioning installer?

Yes. The refrigeration installer mounts and commissions the unit; the electrical circuit, isolator and switchboard work must be done by a licensed electrician and covered by a COES.

Can my supply run a ducted system as well as a pool and a heat pump?

Often, but not always on a single-phase supply. We check the mains and board before the system is chosen and advise whether a board upgrade or three-phase is needed.

Does a split system need its own circuit?

Yes. Air conditioners are wired on a dedicated circuit with their own protection so they cannot overload the general power circuits, and an isolator is fitted at the outdoor unit.

Can you do the electrical side before the unit arrives?

Yes. We can run the circuit and fit the isolator ahead of the installer — in a renovation, before the plaster goes on — which keeps the installation day short.
