GT HVAC & Electrical recently completed a clean and efficient split system installation as part of a home renovation, working alongside JTW Building Group to deliver a seamless result from rough-in through to final fit-off.

The project focused on integrating a new 6kW Mitsubishi Electric split system into the renovated space while maintaining a clean aesthetic, strong airflow performance, and long-term reliability.

By installing the system during the renovation stage, the team was able to achieve a fully concealed, professional finish that blends perfectly into the home.

Improving Home Comfort During Renovation

Renovation projects are the ideal time to upgrade heating and cooling systems.

Without proper planning, homes can often suffer from:

  • Uneven temperatures between rooms
  • Poor airflow in open-plan areas
  • Outdated or inefficient systems
  • Limited options for concealed installation

This project aimed to deliver consistent, reliable comfort throughout the main living space while ensuring the system complemented the newly renovated interior.

Scope of Works

GT HVAC & Electrical completed the following works:

  • Supply of a Mitsubishi Electric 6kW split system
  • Full rough-in installation during framing stage
  • Refrigeration pipework and drainage setup
  • Electrical connection and system commissioning
  • Installation of indoor wall-mounted unit
  • External condenser unit installation

All works were carried out in coordination with JTW Building Group to ensure a smooth and efficient build process.

Mitsubishi Electric 6kW Split System Installation

A Mitsubishi Electric split system was selected for this renovation due to its performance, reliability, and clean design.

The indoor unit was positioned to maximise airflow across the living space while maintaining a minimal visual impact.

This solution provides:

  • Strong, consistent heating and cooling
  • Quiet day-to-day operation
  • Energy-efficient performance
  • A sleek, modern appearance

Mitsubishi Electric systems are a popular choice for renovations where both performance and aesthetics matter.

Concealed Rough-In for a Clean Finish

One of the biggest advantages of installing air conditioning during a renovation is the ability to complete all rough-in work before plastering.

During this stage, GT HVAC & Electrical installed:

  • Refrigeration piping within wall cavities
  • Condensate drainage lines
  • Electrical cabling
  • Insulation for system efficiency

This ensures the final installation is clean and uncluttered, with no exposed pipework or visible cabling.

Eliminating Hot and Cold Spots

Temperature inconsistency is a common issue in renovated homes, especially in open-plan living areas.

Wall-mounted split systems, when installed correctly, can deliver strong, directional airflow to reduce these issues.

This system was positioned to ensure:

  • Even airflow across the entire space
  • Consistent temperature control
  • Improved comfort throughout the room
  • Reduced strain on the system

The result is a balanced environment with no noticeable hot or cold zones.

Designed for Everyday Living

Modern homes require systems that perform consistently across all seasons.

This installation was designed to support:

  • Daily family use
  • Changing Melbourne weather conditions
  • Both heating and cooling requirements
  • Long-term reliability and efficiency

With a properly sized 6kW system, the home now benefits from dependable year-round comfort.

Clean, Professional Finish

A key focus of this project was delivering a clean, modern finish that complements the renovation.

By completing the installation during the build, the final result delivers:

  • Fully concealed pipework
  • A neat indoor unit installation
  • Minimal external visual impact
  • A streamlined, modern appearance

This approach ensures the HVAC system enhances the home rather than standing out.

Project Outcome

The completed installation delivers a practical and high-performing solution:

  • Efficient heating and cooling throughout the space
  • Clean, integrated installation
  • Improved airflow and temperature consistency
  • Quiet and reliable operation
  • Seamless finish within the renovated home

The space is now comfortable, functional, and ready for year-round use.
