What moves a Young 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.
Four real seasons
Young gets cold winters with frost and hot dry summers. Reverse-cycle sized for both ends is the standard local purchase.
Older housing, mixed insulation
Much of the stock predates current insulation standards, which pushes sizing up. A roof inspection before quoting is worth insisting on.
