Why it's our most popular: Matt's personal recommendation: built-in Wi-Fi and nanoe™ X air purification as standard, at a sharper price than the equivalent Daikin.
Who the Panasonic Z 9.5kW is for
The biggest wall split Panasonic makes: 9.5kW of cooling, 10.3kW of heating, built-in Wi-Fi and nanoe™ X — a genuine ducted alternative for one large zone. If the roof can't take ducting or you'd rather zone with units, this is the premium single-room ceiling.
Sized right, 9.5kW comfortably covers around 63 m² in Perth conditions — large open-plan living/kitchen. Every Z has a Quiet mode that drops fan speed and noise for bedrooms and night running. If you're between sizes, we'll tell you straight at the quote which way to go — an undersized unit runs flat-out and wears early, an oversized one short-cycles.
The Z series is Panasonic's premium wall split and our most-recommended unit for living areas: built-in Wi-Fi as standard, nanoe™ X air purification running 24/7, and AEROWINGS twin-louvre airflow that showers the room evenly instead of blasting one spot. Panasonic is our top pick as a brand — premium quality on par with Daikin, at a sharper price thanks to our supplier relationship.

What $4,455 includes
The from-price is a standard back-to-back install — indoor and outdoor unit on opposite sides of the same wall — and it includes the whole job, not a stripped-down teaser:
- The indoor head and outdoor unit, mounted, levelled, and secured
- Up to 3 metres of insulated refrigerant pipework in neat trunking
- Electrical connection to a suitable existing circuit, with an isolating switch at the outdoor unit
- Condensate drain run to ground level
- Standard outdoor mounting (blocks at ground level, or a wall bracket where specified)
- Vacuum, pressure test, and refrigerant charge to the manufacturer's spec
- Full run test, commissioning, remote demo, and the compliance paperwork
What lifts a quote above the from-price: long pipe runs, two-storey or high mounting, tricky access, and the dedicated circuit this size requires (which we run in-house — no second electrician). The full breakdown is in our Perth split system cost guide, or get a number for your wall with the cost calculator.

Other Panasonic Z sizes
Panasonic Z 9.5kW — common questions
How much does the Panasonic Z 9.5kW cost installed in Perth?
From $4,455 inc GST, supply and installed as a standard back-to-back install. That covers the unit, mounting, up to 3 metres of pipework, the electrical connection and isolator, and full commissioning. Longer pipe runs, height access or switchboard work lift the price — you get an exact fixed quote free before any work starts.
What size room does the Panasonic Z 9.5kW suit?
As a Perth rule of thumb, 9.5kW of cooling comfortably handles a room of around 63 m² — large open-plan living/kitchen. Ceiling height, insulation, and big west-facing windows shift the answer, which is why we always confirm sizing at the quote.
Does the Panasonic Z 9.5kW need its own electrical circuit?
Yes — anything above 3.5kW needs a dedicated circuit from the switchboard. Because we're dual-licensed in air conditioning and electrical, the circuit, isolator and any switchboard work are part of the same quote and the same visit — no second tradie.
What warranty does the Panasonic Z 9.5kW come with?
Panasonic 5-year parts and compressor warranty, plus our own workmanship warranty on the installation. Installation by an ARC-licensed tech and a licensed electrician — the same team, on the same job — protects your manufacturer warranty; an unlicensed install is the usual reason a claim gets knocked back.
