Haier is the largest appliance maker on earth and owns Fisher & Paykel, which is the detail that matters locally: warranty and service in Australia lean on that established network rather than a startup importer.
Pricing sits squarely in the value tier: bedroom splits installing around $1,500 to $1,900 in 2026 on a standard install, living-area units from about $2,000.
The units themselves are simple modern inverters. Efficiency is respectable, controls are basic but fine, and service techs report them as easy to work on.
The choice inside the value tier usually comes down to Haier versus Hisense versus Kelvinator at very similar money. Haier's service story is the differentiator; Hisense often edges the efficiency figures; Kelvinator trades on the old Australian name.
Same placement advice as the whole tier: excellent in rentals and secondary rooms, think harder for the room where you sleep every night.

Haier split system range guide for 2026
Haier's air conditioning has moved to its own Haier Home site, run by Fisher & Paykel Australia. The ranges have been renamed too. Older names such as Tempo, Flexis and Tundra still appear on existing units and in manuals, but current wall splits are sold by series number.
| Series | System | Where it sits |
|---|---|---|
| 300 Series | Reverse cycle | Entry. The straightforward value split |
| 300 Series Cooling Only | Cooling only | For hot-climate homes that never heat |
| 500 Series | Reverse cycle | Mid range |
| 600 Series Q and QP | Reverse cycle | Top of the numbered ranges |
| Pinnacle | Reverse cycle | A separately named range; ask the installer where it sits against the 500 and 600 |
Inside the value tier, compare Haier against Hisense and Kelvinator at the same size, and let the itemised install decide. Check the room with our sizing calculator, look at typical prices in our split system cost guide, and get a Haier quoted with the model number in writing.
Haier ducted and multi-split
Haier Home lists whole-of-home ducted systems under the Smart Power name, including a high static ducted unit that can go in the ceiling or under the floor. Multi-room systems are sold as Super Match multi-splits. Ducted Haier is uncommon in Australian quotes, so price it against at least one mainstream ducted brand. The installer's zoning design matters more than the badge on a $9,000 to $16,000 job; see our ducted cost guide. A two-head multi-split typically costs $4,500 to $7,500 installed.
Haier remote symbols, error codes and manuals
The Haier remote uses the standard mode icons for cool, heat, dry, fan and auto; our modes and symbols guide explains them. Haier publishes user guides for current and older ranges (including Tempo and Flexis) through the Haier Home support site. The guide for your model explains what the indoor display shows if the unit detects a fault. Codes vary by range, so we don't list them here.
Owner checks are limited to the safe basics: clean the filters, check the circuit breaker, and make sure nothing is blocking the outdoor unit. Anything beyond that is a job for Haier service or a licensed technician.
If your Haier is more than 10 to 12 years old, or keeps faulting after a reset, a replacement usually beats a big repair bill on a value-tier unit. A new bedroom split costs about $1,500 to $2,500 installed in 2026 and a 7 kW living-room unit $2,600 to $3,900, on a standard install. See the split system cost guide or get up to three local quotes.
Haier warranty and service in Australia
Haier Home gives a five-year manufacturer's warranty on air conditioning products under 25 kW of system cooling capacity, which covers every home split and most residential ducted systems. Larger systems get two years. The full terms are in Haier's air conditioner manufacturer's warranty document on its site. Keep the invoice, and use an ARCtick-licensed installer and a licensed electrician, because incorrect installation is a standard exclusion.
The service link to Fisher & Paykel, which operates Haier Home in Australia, is Haier's real edge in the value tier. It gives you an established national appliance service organisation rather than a thin importer. Our quote service introduces up to three licensed installers who can confirm local service before you sign.
Sources
Where it earns the money
- Backed by the Fisher & Paykel service network in Australia and NZ
- Sharp pricing with regular trade specials
- Simple, serviceable units
Watch-outs before you sign
- Same bedroom-noise and longevity caveats as the rest of the value tier
- Range naming overlaps with Fisher & Paykel models — quote the exact model
Our verdict
Beside Hisense at the same price, either is defensible. The F&P service network is Haier's honest edge.
Whatever the badge, sizing and install quality decide how it feels to live with. Check your postcode's rebate and get quotes from up to three licensed local installers to compare.
FAQ
Haier questions
Are Haier split systems any good?
Haier splits are solid value-tier inverters, with a five-year warranty and service through the Fisher & Paykel-run Haier Home organisation. Like other value brands, they suit rentals and secondary rooms best. For a main bedroom where quiet matters, a Japanese unit is worth the extra.
Is Haier better than Daikin?
No. Daikin is quieter, has the longer Australian track record and the stronger dealer network. Haier is several hundred dollars cheaper for the same size and has a sound service backstop. Choose on how often the room is used.
Who services Haier air conditioners in Australia?
Haier air conditioning in Australia is run by Fisher & Paykel Australia through the Haier Home brand, with warranty and support through Haier Home's customer care. Ask your installer who does Haier warranty work in your area before you buy.
What is the warranty on a Haier air conditioner?
Haier gives a five-year manufacturer's warranty on air conditioning products under 25 kW of system cooling capacity, which covers home split systems. Larger systems have two years. Check the full terms on Haier Home's warranty page.
What happened to Haier Tempo and Flexis air conditioners?
Haier has renamed its wall-split ranges. Current models are sold as the 300, 500 and 600 Series and Pinnacle. Manuals and support for Tempo and Flexis units are still available through Haier's support site.
What is the 3-minute rule for air conditioners?
Many inverter splits wait about three minutes before restarting the compressor after being switched off, to protect it. If the unit doesn't start straight away after you turn it back on, give it a few minutes before assuming it's faulty.
