Winter, comfortably ahead of the humid season.

Once quoted, most split installs are a half-day job scheduled within 2–3 weeks. Ducted installs run 1–2 days on site. Allow 2–3 weeks outside peak.
Humid subtropical summers
Maryborough is humid through summer, so dehumidification matters alongside cooling. A slightly larger unit run gently handles humidity better than a small one at full tilt.
Queenslander housing stock
Traditional high-set timber homes are common here, and they need different sizing and mounting to a modern brick build. Under-floor and roof access both affect the price.
