Multi-head split systems offer the flexibility of individual room control with the convenience of a single outdoor unit. At Polygon BG Air & Electrical, we design and install multi-head systems that allow you to connect two to five indoor units to one compact outdoor condenser — perfect for homes, apartments and townhouses where ducted systems aren't practical.
Each indoor unit operates independently, allowing you to set different temperatures in different rooms. This means you can keep the bedrooms cool at night while the living area stays off, or heat the study during the day without warming the entire house.
Our team handles every aspect from system design and brand selection through to professional installation and commissioning. We'll ensure each indoor unit is correctly sized for its room and positioned for optimal airflow and comfort.
- Connect 2-5 indoor units to a single outdoor unit
- Independent temperature control in each room
- Multiple indoor unit styles — wall, floor, bulkhead and cassette
- Ideal for apartments, townhouses and multi-storey homes
- Less outdoor space required than individual split systems
- Energy-efficient inverter technology

Expert Guidance
When Is a Multi-Head System the Right Choice?
Limited Outdoor Space
If you need air conditioning in multiple rooms but don't have space for several outdoor units (common in apartments, townhouses and properties with small courtyards), a multi-head system is the ideal solution. One compact outdoor unit replaces what would otherwise be two, three or even five separate condensers.
No Roof Space for Ducting
Many older Melbourne homes, apartments and townhouses simply don't have the roof cavity space required for a ducted system. A multi-head split system gives you whole-home climate control without any ductwork — each room gets its own wall-mounted, floor-standing or cassette-style indoor unit.
Individual Room Control
Unlike ducted systems where zones typically group several rooms together, a multi-head system gives each room its own thermostat and control. This is ideal for households where different family members have different comfort preferences, or where rooms are used at different times of day.
Multi-Head vs Multiple Single Splits
While individual split systems are simpler to install, they each require their own outdoor unit. If you need three or more rooms air-conditioned, a multi-head system is often more cost-effective, aesthetically neater and easier to maintain — with just one outdoor unit to service instead of several.
