Hey Jason, yes some developments don't cover at all.
My 2 cents worth, if you can take the "ugliness" of it, then you can basically just drill a small hole, get them to install the aircons back to back.
As in blower inside, compressor outside. Its not as nice as if you consolidate all aircon compressors to one spot or conceal them behind some walls,etc
but it saves you alot of headaches, slightly easier to troubleshoot since its clear which compressor belongs to which. This simplifies the piping, etc
considerably and cuts down on overall costs. You can also deploy this one shot and finish the whole house in one day rather than have major hacking and pipe/cabling done. I have done this before, come into HH at 9am, by 5.30pm. All 2 houses were completed with 11 units of aircon.
Probably the other consideration is power as some rooms do not have spare power. It helps that most 1HP units are the normal 13amp plug type, just need to
watch if they are going to "steal" the power from a point not to overload it. Some people like a learned bro of mine has done even better and put in lots of power points, that way, its easier and better from a power usage perspective.
Auto gate wise, quite a few will do the basic wiring for you, just get a cheap and good autogate unit from guys like the one next to Station One cafe, about 1350 RM i think, the gear based type. Just use those and get them to install for you. It will cost slightly more if there isn't wiring, etc but its no bigger to this type of above ground units.
