What moves a Launceston split quote
Back-to-back, or not
The cheap baseline: indoor unit on an external wall, condenser directly behind it. Every metre the two units drift apart adds piping, cabling and labour, the biggest single swing on most quotes.
Electrical work
Bigger units need a dedicated circuit, and older switchboards sometimes need an upgrade to take one. Legitimate money, but it should be an itemised line, not a surprise on install day.
The frost capital
Launceston's valley traps cold air, frosty mornings for months. Heating output at low temperatures is the number that decides the right unit.
Splits are the standard
Like Hobart, Launceston's older stock suits high-wall splits room by room, and modern cold-climate units heat brilliantly.
