Are you planning to install air conditioning in your home? As Australia heats up for summer, air con becomes an essential part of creating a comfortable living space, so in this article, we review TECO Air Conditioner Models.

There’s a range of brands on offer in Australia, but one of the most affordable options comes from TECO. They build various AC solutions for commercial and residential projects, proving themselves to be capable solutions for heatwaves.

Whether you’re building a home from the ground up and searching for an investment to renovate your home, air conditioning is an excellent decision. When choosing your air cooling solution, there are two main options — ducted and split systems.

Ducted air conditioners provide unparalleled temperature controls throughout the home and are the most efficient option for cooling an entire house with multiple bedrooms and living spaces. Ducted systems use a central unit usually located in the roof and distribute air throughout the home using specialised ducts. Check out our blog on how ducted air conditioning works to learn more.

On the other hand, split systems are single air conditioning units mounted onto the wall to provide direct temperate control. This is ideal for those wanting to maximise their cooling and heating in only a few rooms of the house, whilst minimising upfront installation costs.

To help give you a better understanding of this affordable and efficient brand, let’s take a closer look at what they offer.

What Is TECO Like As A Brand?

Although less well known than other brands around, TECO Air Conditioning has been one of Australia’s leading electric motor manufacturers for over 45 years.

Originally founded in Taiwan in 1956 to develop heavy industrial electric motors, they eventually began developing air conditioning for shopping centres, office buildings, factories and hospitals. This laid the groundwork for their success in home appliances such as air conditioners, refrigerators, freezers, washing machines, and dryers.

TECO air conditioning systems also include a 5-year parts and labour warranty, giving you peace of mind. TECO has offices in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, and Perth as well as a nationwide service network for all of Australia. This ensures that qualified specialists and spare components are easily accessible across the country.

TECO Split System

TECO comfort series and Platinum 3D series are their leading split system units. Both inverter and fixed speed models are available, with the option of the reverse cycle and cooling only, in power sizes ranging from 2.5kW up to 8kW.

Keeping up with other leading manufacturers, TECO split system air conditioners have a range of energy-efficient and eco-friendly features. They also have an interactive digital display with temperature information, 3D airflow for even air distribution, and plenty of modes to suit how you use it.

TECO Ducted System

On the other hand, TECO ducted systems range from 7kW to 17kW and are ideal for homes ranging from three to five bedrooms and multiple living spaces. Specifically designed for the Australian climate, their quiet and energy-efficient systems are perfectly suited to those with great needs and seeking to invest in the best solution available.

Enhance the air quality in your entire home with a TECO ducted system and the added option of an in-duct air purifier. This aftermarket solution will purify the air circulated by your system, ensuring the best possible indoor air quality.

What TECO Air Conditioner Model Is Right For Your Home?

The first step in choosing between split and ducted is deciding how many rooms you need to cool or heat.

If you only need to cool one room and are looking for less permanent solution you could consider a portable air conditioner you can install yourself & easily relocate when you decide to move home.

For one to two rooms, a split system air conditioner is a good solution. For two to four rooms, a multi-split air conditioner might be a better option. And, for a large family home, ducted air conditioners are best suited due to their large capacity, smart control options and individual temperature control in each room.

Ducted air conditioning systems are increasingly being used in new houses, regardless of size. This is due to the fact that they may cool or heat numerous rooms at a time, as well as being cost-effective and energy-efficient to operate. Although it’s a larger investment upfront, it will add long-term value to your home.

We just had our unit installed a few days ago and wow...what a difference it has made. The process was so easy from start to finish. Alex was happy to run us through every system until we found exactly what we needed. The officecwas a pleasure to deal with. The installers, led by Ben were so considerate and professional and took such great pride in their work. I can't thank Ben and his team enough. They did a brilliant fit out, cleaned so thoroughly and explained all the tech so simply. I truely recommend these guys and hopefully you get Ben and his team for your fit out.

We cannot rate this company enough! Louis, Jayden, Aidan and Wayne were awesome, really professional and treated our home brilliantly whilst installing the ducted aircon and removing two opd split systems. The ducted system itself is so much more efficient than the two split systems we had. This company was great to deal with from the start at the quote phase, to site visit and all the way to the installation part. 5 stars. Would recommend.

We had ducted air conditioning installed and the entire experience was excellent. From the initial quote to the final install, communication was clear and honest and this close to Christmas extremely efficient service. The installers were professional, efficient, and were extremely polite and well mannered on site. The system runs quietly and cools the house perfectly. Would highly recommend to anyone considering ducted air from Smarter Air & Electrical.

My husband and I can't speak highly enough about the team from Smarter Air & Electrical. Great communication and information from Alex in sales. Jack who came to quote and do the site inspection was such a nice guy and was so helpful. On the day of installation, Haydyn and his team arrived right on time. They did an amazing job and left everything so tidy and clean when they left. We were so impressed with how professional the whole team was. We would highly recommend this company if you're looking for a ducted air conditioning system. Thanks guys!

Absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. From receiving a quote with multiple options and add-ons providing transparency and accurate figures for pricing. The initial site visit occurred quickly. After this we had an initial install date booked which I had to change and Smarter Air were extremely accommodating with a date change. On the day of installation, Joey and the team arrived on time, completed the job to a fantastic standard, left the house very clean, and explained how everything worked. All the guys who worked on the job were absolute champions. Best experience.

Absolutely fantastic experience with Smarter Air & Electrical. From the first site visit, Ben (legend) was friendly, knowledgeable, and great to deal with. No sales pressure at any point—just honest advice, clear communication, and a genuine focus on what suited us best. The whole process was smooth and well-organised, with everything running on time and as promised. On installation day, Phil (one of the directors) was on-site to double-check plans and talk through any technical details or adjustments which was a great touch and showed how much they care about getting things right. The team was respectful, efficient, and left everything tidy. They clearly take pride in their work. The result is brilliant—clean install, great system, and total peace of mind. Highly recommend them for a stress-free, professional experience.

Amanda told me she was sending her best tradie, Ben, who was punctual, professional, and polite. Ben, ensured the job was turned out as if it was work on his own home, and then educated my wife on the operation of our new aircon. In short, Ben is an LBW, ( living bloody wonder) and an asset to the business, and his offsider, Sam, a good bloke, with 2 ears, both of which seem to work.
