When you call Vivek Refrigeration you speak to the owners, and the people who quote your job are the people who install it. That experience shows in the details: the right system for the space, a tidy install, and someone to call when it needs a service.
We assess the property, so the system matches the space. Undersized units run flat out; oversized ones waste money.
Four decades of buying direct from the major brands means we buy well. We're happy to be compared against any other quote.
Clean installs with minimal disruption to your home or trading hours.
Servicing and repairs from the same team that knows your system.

From a single bedroom split to offices, shops and warehouses.
Many air conditioning upgrades qualify for a VEU discount. We check your eligibility and build it into the quote, so the price you see is the price you pay.

It depends on floor area, ceiling height, insulation, window orientation and how many rooms you want to run at once. We size the system for your property rather than guessing from square metres. Undersized units run constantly; oversized ones switch on and off and waste energy.
Ducted reverse cycle suits whole-home heating and cooling with zoning. Splits are best for one or two rooms. Evaporative is the cheapest to run but only cools, and works best in dry heat. We'll walk you through the options for your property.
Split systems and repairs are usually within days. Ducted installs depend on equipment availability and the scope of the job; we give you a realistic date when we quote.
