Impulse Electrical supplies and installs split system and ducted air conditioning across the Mornington Peninsula — all major brands including Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric and Fujitsu. As A Grade licensed electricians (A53308), we handle the dedicated circuit, isolator switch and any switchboard upgrade required, with free quotes and a Certificate of Electrical Safety on every job.
Peninsula summers are increasingly hot — and the coastal humidity makes the heat feel worse than the temperature suggests. Air conditioning is no longer a luxury for most Peninsula households. Whether you need a single split system in your Dromana bedroom or a full ducted system for a new home in Mount Martha, Impulse Electrical handles the electrical installation component — including the dedicated circuit, switchboard work, and connection to your outdoor unit.
💡 Peninsula tip: Choose reverse cycle — heat and cool with one system
• Reverse cycle air conditioners heat in winter and cool in summer — two functions, one unit
• Much more efficient than electric resistance heaters for Peninsula winters
• Modern inverter systems use up to 60% less energy than older fixed-speed models
• Ask about high-wall units with heating capacity suited to cold Peninsula winters
A single-room split system (2.5kW–3.5kW) installed typically costs contact us for a quote including supply and installation. A larger 7–9kW system for open-plan living areas runs contact us for a quote installed. Ducted systems for whole-home cooling are contact us for a quote depending on the number of zones and the property size. All prices include electrical connection and commissioning. We supply and install — or install units you've already purchased.
As a rough guide: 2.5kW suits rooms up to 20m², 3.5kW for 20–35m², 5–6kW for 35–60m², and 7–9kW for 60–80m². Peninsula homes often need slightly larger units due to high ceilings in older homes and the coastal humidity that makes heat feel more intense. We'll calculate the correct size based on your room dimensions, ceiling height, insulation, and orientation — oversizing or undersizing an air conditioner both waste energy.
Split systems cool or heat one room or zone per indoor unit — they're lower cost to install and run, and ideal for targeting specific areas. Ducted systems use a central unit in the roof to distribute conditioned air through ceiling vents in multiple rooms — better for whole-home comfort but higher upfront cost. On the Peninsula, most homes with 3+ bedrooms benefit from ducted, while smaller homes or targeted cooling is fine with multi-split or individual split systems.
Yes. Impulse Electrical offers an install-only service if you've already bought your unit. We run the dedicated circuit from your switchboard, fit the isolator switch at the outdoor unit, complete the electrical connection and commissioning, and issue a Certificate of Electrical Safety. We can also supply and install if you'd prefer one point of contact for the whole job.
In most cases, yes — air conditioners are high-load appliances and are installed on a dedicated electrical circuit from the switchboard, with an isolator switch at the outdoor unit. Some older Peninsula switchboards also need an upgrade to safely handle the extra air conditioning load. We assess your switchboard as part of the installation and provide a free quote upfront.
For most Peninsula homes, yes. Reverse cycle units heat in winter and cool in summer — two functions from one system — and they're much more efficient than electric resistance heaters for Peninsula winters. Modern inverter models use up to 60% less energy than older fixed-speed units, making reverse cycle the practical choice for year-round comfort.
We install all major brands, including Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, Fujitsu, Samsung, LG and Panasonic. That covers single and multi-head split systems, ducted reverse cycle systems for whole-home comfort, and cassette or ceiling-mounted units for commercial premises. We'll recommend the right brand and configuration for your home, or install a unit you've already chosen.
