Services
Gas Ducted Heating
Gas ducted heating distributes warm air through floor, ceiling, or wall vents via a network of ducts. This system offers zoned control, energy efficiency, and compatibility with both new and existing properties. Mercury installs high-efficiency models ranging from 3 to 7 stars, including Braemars world-leading 7-star unit. Systems include warranties up to 10 years for heat exchangers and burners, ensuring long-term reliability and cost-effective operation for Melbourne homes.
Hydronic Heating
Hydronic heating circulates hot water through pipes connected to radiators or underfloor systems, providing silent, even warmth. Mercury offers Bosch and Immergas boilers paired with steel/aluminium radiators or in-slab solutions. This system suits allergy sufferers due to its dust-free operation and offers 20-25% lower running costs compared to gas ducted systems. Customizable zoning and programmable timers enhance energy efficiency, making it ideal for Melbournes variable winters.
Evaporative Cooling
Evaporative cooling uses water evaporation to lower temperatures, delivering fresh, circulated air through ceiling ducts. Mercury installs energy-efficient units from leading brands, consuming 80% less electricity than refrigerated systems. Ideal for Melbournes low-humidity climate, these systems cool entire homes at lower costs, with automatic drainage and maintenance-free features. Units operate quietly and include programmable timers, exhaust modes, and auto-settings for year-round comfort.
Wall Split Systems
Wall split systems connect indoor wall units to outdoor condensers, offering reversible heating and cooling for individual rooms. Mercury supplies 2-11kW models suitable for bedrooms, living areas, or kitchens. Multi-head options allow up to five rooms to be controlled by a single outdoor unit. Features include 5-year warranties, energy-efficient inverter technology, and smart controls. These systems are ideal for retrofits or additions where ducted systems arent feasible.
Ducted Refrigerated Air Conditioning
Ducted refrigerated systems provide whole-house climate control using inverter technology for energy efficiency. Mercury installs zoned systems with MyAir 5 smart controls, allowing precise room-by-room temperature management. Units include motion sensors for automated energy savings and compatibility with existing ducted heating. With 5-year warranties and capacities from 5-25kW, these systems suit Melbournes extreme summers while maintaining quiet operation and sleek ceiling grilles.
Questions
Can evaporative cooling work with open windows?
Yes, evaporative coolers require open windows to vent warm air, creating positive pressure that keeps hot outdoor air out.
Do gas ducted heaters support zoning?
Yes, gas ducted systems allow zoning via electronic controllers, though at least 5-7 outlets must remain open for optimal performance.
Are hydronic systems suitable for allergy sufferers?
Yes, hydronic heating circulates water instead of air, eliminating dust circulation and providing a healthier environment for allergy sufferers.
Can I add cooling to existing ducted heating?
Yes, add-on refrigerated cooling systems can be integrated with existing ducted heating, though ductwork upgrades may be required.
How often should HVAC systems be serviced?
Gas ducted and refrigerated systems require servicing every 3 years, while hydronic systems need power flushing every 2-3 years for optimal performance.
Do split systems work for multiple rooms?
Multi-head split systems can cool up to 5 rooms with one outdoor unit, though effectiveness decreases with distance between indoor and outdoor units.
