    Punctual, Professional & Friendly

    I’ve had Nathan out twice, in 2017 and just today to install and wall mount large televisions. Cables are concealed beautifully through the wall and the tv’s look sensational. Nathan is punctual, professional and friendly, offering sound and experienced advice. Would not hesitate getting him back!

    Great work done by Watts Needed Electrical. Very good value for money too. I wish I had installed the new power points and fixed some electrical issues sooner!! Highly recommended 🙂 Nathan and the boys were a pleasure to deal with.

      Your Questions. Our Answers
      Frequently Asked Questions
      How much does air conditioner installation cost in Canberra?
      Installation costs vary based on system type, size, brand, and any electrical work required. We provide free detailed quotes with transparent fixed pricing and no hidden charges.
      Do I need council approval for AC installation?
      Most residential split systems don't require approval. However, some units near boundaries or heritage properties may need permits. We handle all compliance requirements for you.
      What size air conditioner do I need for my room?
      Room size, ceiling height, insulation, and window orientation all affect sizing. As a guide: bedrooms need 2.5-3.5kW, living areas 3.5-5kW, and open plan spaces 5-8kW. We calculate exact requirements during our free assessment.
      How long does AC installation take?
      Standard split system installation takes 3-4 hours. Ducted systems require 1-2 days. Multi-split systems fall somewhere between. We'll confirm exact timeframes in your quote.
      Can you install AC if I'm renting?
      Yes, with landlord approval. We can liaise with property managers and provide all documentation needed. Many landlords view AC as a value-adding investment that increases rental appeal.
      What's the difference between split system and ducted AC?
      Split systems cool individual rooms with visible indoor units - perfect for targeted comfort. Ducted systems cool your entire home through concealed ceiling vents, offering seamless aesthetics and whole-home climate control.
