Pimpama

Do you install ducted air conditioning in Pimpama?

Yes. Pimpama is in the City of Gold Coast's northern growth corridor, about 40 km up the M1 from our Burleigh Heads base. We install ducted systems in brand-new homes, in homes still under construction, and in houses a few years old whose owners want to add or upgrade air conditioning.

Pimpama has changed from farmland to suburbs quickly, so most of the homes we see here are recent builds on compact estate lots. That shapes almost every decision, from where the outdoor unit can sit to how the ceiling space is framed. See our Gold Coast service area page for the other northern suburbs we cover, including Coomera, Ormeau and Oxenford.

New builds

When is the best time to add ducted air to a new Pimpama home?

Before the ceilings are sheeted, if your builder allows it. At frame stage, duct can be laid through open trusses, outlets set where the design needs them, and the dedicated circuit included in the electrical rough-in. Fitting it after handover still works well, but the duct has to be run through the finished roof space.

If you are mid-build, ask your builder whether you can use your own air conditioning installer and at which stage they will let us on site. Bring your floor plan to us and we will design the zones, outlet positions and return air location from the plan. If you have already moved in, nothing is lost: most estate homes here have conventional trussed roofs with enough room for a ducted indoor unit and flexible duct.

Estate lots

Where does the outdoor unit go on a small estate block?

Usually down a side setback or against the rear wall. Many Pimpama lots leave a narrow gap between the house and the boundary fence, and the outdoor unit needs clear air around it to work properly. We pick a spot that gives it airflow, keeps it serviceable and keeps noise away from bedroom windows, yours and your neighbour's.

Queensland law limits how much noise an air conditioner can make at a neighbouring home at night, so placement matters on tight lots. Estates with covenants or a body corporate may also have rules about equipment visible from the street. Check your contract of sale or estate guidelines and tell us when you book.

Sizing

How big a ducted system does a Pimpama home need?

It depends on floor area, ceiling height, insulation, glazing and orientation, not the number of bedrooms alone. Many newer homes have large open-plan living areas with big sliding doors that take afternoon sun, and those spaces set the size of the system. We calculate the load room by room before recommending a unit.

Pimpama sits a little way back from the coast, so summer afternoons can be warmer and stiller than at the beach. Zoning lets you run the living area during the day and the bedrooms at night, rather than cooling the whole house at once. ZoneTouch is our standard controller; AirTouch 5 adds a temperature sensor per zone and phone control.

Licensed and guaranteed

Who does the work and what is the warranty?

Our own licensed staff do every part of the job: design, installation, electrical connection and commissioning. We hold QBCC licence 15409367, ARCtick authorisation AU064493 and Queensland electrical licence 1505904. Ducted installs carry a 10-year workmanship guarantee and 10 years on duct and pipework.

Units have five years parts and labour (Hisense carries five plus two), and the ZoneTouch controller has five years. Warranties apply once the job is paid in full.

Good questions

Pimpama ducted air conditioning questions

Is it cheaper to install ducted air during the build?

It is usually easier. Before the plasterboard goes up, duct can be run and outlets positioned without cutting finished ceilings, and the electrical circuit can be planned with the rest of the wiring. Talk to your builder early about whether you can use your own installer. For an exact price, ask us for a quote.

My new Pimpama home came with a small ducted system. Can you upgrade it?

We can assess it. Some builder-supplied systems are sized tightly or have fewer zones than the family needs. At the inspection we check the unit capacity against the house and whether the existing duct can be reused, then quote a replacement or extra zones if they would help.

Can ducted air conditioning run from my solar?

A ducted system draws from the house supply like any other appliance, so solar output during the day offsets what it uses. Our electricians also do solar and battery work and can talk through how the two fit together.

    Absolutely fantastic experience with Frost Solutions! I recently had a ducted air-conditioning system installed and honestly, from the very first conversation through to the finished installation, the whole process was seamless. ... The installation itself was done to a really high standard, the team worked efficiently and left everything clean and tidy. ... Great people, great communication, great workmanship and a great result.

    Couldn't recommend Frost Solutions highly enough. We recently had them install a 16kW Daikin ducted system with 8 outlets, 6 independent zones, AirTouch 5, multiple upgrades and a 5 year service plan. ... Another big positive is that Frost Solutions have their own electrical team as part of the installation. ... the entire experience was seamless.

    Frost Solutions installed ducted air conditioning in my home today and I couldn't be happier. The team were professional, friendly, punctual, and down to earth. ... left the house spotless ... I also really appreciated the follow-up call from the office later in the day to check I was completely satisfied ... They're a local business with local staff, and the value was extremely competitive for the quality of service and workmanship provided.

    Thanks guys For installing my Panasonic 18 kilowatt Ducted air conditioning today. The guys turned up on time and were very polite. They worked hard all day, did a great job and left the house neat and tidy. Also they were $2000 cheaper than the others. :)

    A massive thanks to Frost Solutions. We got a 16kw ducted system put in with 7 zones and 9 outlets. Tyrone and the team were super friendly and very professional doing an awesome job, even helping me to keep maximum space in our roof so I could do an attic room. They also decommissioned and removed 2 of our old split systems. Could not recommend them more highly.
