Heating & cooling
One system, every season.
Reverse cycle heats in July and cools in January off the same box. We size it to the rooms, install it through the roof properly, and wire it with our own licensed electricians.

Gas vs electric
The gas bill is the expensive habit.
A reverse cycle system moves heat rather than burning anything, so it puts out three to four times more warmth than the electricity it draws. Gas can never beat that — it tops out at the energy in the gas.
Have a look at what that means on the bill, and on the carbon, for a house the size of yours.

Going with split systems over gas ducted is $1,376 a year — about 60% off that bill. Up here in the ranges it runs higher again — Sustainability Victoria says multiply by about 1.5 for a cold climate like Ballarat.

Why people call us back
No mystery, no runaround.
We turn up
Breakdowns get triaged the day you call, and you are told who is coming and when — not left waiting on a window that never closes.
Priced before we start
New systems are measured and quoted before anything is ordered, and repairs get a price agreed up front. No surprises on the invoice.
Licensed and insured
ARCtick refrigerant handling, licensed electrical work and full insurance — the paperwork is done properly.
Sized for the room
A system that is too big cycles and costs you money. We work out what the space actually needs before quoting it.

“We have been working with Spa Refrigeration for over 12 years. We have purchased multiple split systems from them and engage them to service them as needed. Chris and his team always offer prompt, efficient and professional advice and service. We highly recommend them!”
“Chris, Mandy and the team delivered GOLD CLASS SERVICE. We moved across from WA and were concerned with how we will cope with Ballarat winters.”
“This was the first time we used Spa and they were excellent from the outset! Nathan was fantastic. Not only was his work great, he was reliable, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. I would highly recommend Spa.”
“Once I spoke with Chris and met him on site I knew I chose the correct installers. A family man and dedication to getting the job done cleanly and efficiently.”
“Chris & Penny and the team are always fantastic to deal with. These guys make sure our split systems and ducted system are working properly and running efficiently.”
“We recently had an Evnex charger installed and couldn't be happier with the process. Communication was clear and timely. The installation was neat and efficient and everything was explained in a way that made it simple to get started.”
And the name on the van
The coldest half of the business.
Cool rooms, freezer rooms, display cabinets, beer systems and supermarket cases — designed, installed and kept running on a planned maintenance schedule. When stock is on the line, the breakdown goes to the top of the list.
Thinking about solar?
Run the air con off the roof.
Reverse cycle is the cheapest heating you can buy — cheaper again when the panels are paying for it. We don’t do solar, but our mates at Trentham Energy do, and they’re the ones we send our own customers to.
