Multi-Split System Service & Maintenance Melbourne

EZYAIR provides professional multi-split system service and maintenance across metropolitan Melbourne. A multi-split system connects several indoor units to one outdoor unit, so each indoor unit needs regular maintenance to keep the whole system heating and cooling efficiently. You can choose between two services: our Standard Preventive Maintenance Service, which follows a 28 point checklist, or our Deep Clean Sanitation Service, which includes the Standard Service plus 5 sanitation extras for every indoor unit.

We service multi-split systems from other brands and installers, not only the systems we install. EZYAIR also specialises in the supply and installation of multi-split systems. Book a multi-split service or call 1300 EZYAIR (1300 399 247).

Why regular multi-split system maintenance matters

Every air conditioner requires maintenance to ensure it is operating at optimal performance and efficiency. Regular maintenance:

removes bacteria, mould, pollen, dust and microbial matter from the air conditioner, reducing the chances of sickness
enables the air conditioner to operate at its maximum energy efficiency, saving on operating costs
removes dander and debris trapped inside the filtration system, which can ignite due to an electrical fault
eradicates odours such as mould and smoke, which can be a sign of a sick air conditioner
dislodges blockages in the drain, which can otherwise cause the air conditioner to backflow and flood

What is included in our multi-split system service?

Every EZYAIR multi-split maintenance visit follows the same 28 point checklist, covering each indoor unit, the shared outdoor unit, the electrical and safety components, and a final performance check. With the Deep Clean Sanitation Service, every indoor unit also receives the 5 sanitation extras listed above.

As a general guide, EZYAIR recommends air conditioning maintenance every 400 working hours in a domestic environment, and every 200 working hours (or less) in a commercial environment, depending on the indoor air quality. Scheduled maintenance is also a requirement of every manufacturer's warranty. Our team can recommend a schedule that suits how you use your system.

Signs your multi-split system needs a service

unpleasant or musty odours when the system starts
dust or visible mould on the filters or around the outlet of an indoor unit
water dripping from an indoor unit, which can indicate a blocked drain
weak airflow, or rooms that no longer reach the set temperature
unusual noise from an indoor unit or the outdoor unit
higher than usual energy use for the same level of comfort
