Split systems for rentals, townhouses and brick homes across the LGA
Mount Druitt and Rooty Hill carry a lot of the region's townhouses, walk-up unit blocks, villas and investment properties, and splits suit that housing. In a complex, the outdoor unit position is often set by strata or complex rules, and walls and fences sit close, so we check airflow and noise around the permitted spot before choosing a model. For landlords the brief is usually a reliable inverter unit in the main living area first, then bedrooms as the budget allows, with the install booked around the tenant through the agent.
In the fibro and brick veneer homes of Doonside, Marayong and Seven Hills, a split is often the first proper cooling the house has had, replacing a tired wall unit. The generous blocks in Doonside and Seven Hills make outdoor unit placement easy: there is room to keep condensers away from bedroom windows and the boundary. A multi-head with three heads on one outdoor unit covers the living area and two bedrooms, which suits a compact single-storey plan where the rooms sit close together.
In the newer estates, splits fill gaps. A home office in Glenwood, a rumpus room the ducted system misses in Schofields, a granny flat out the back. Many homes in The Ponds already have ducted from new, so a split there is usually for one room that the ducted system does not reach well. Side passages are tight on those blocks, so we look at wall bracket positions and noise toward the neighbour's windows before quoting.
Scope of work & pricing
What's included, and what moves the price
A single split for a living room or bedroom is $1,800–$3,200 installed, which covers most like-for-like replacements in Mount Druitt and Rooty Hill rentals. A multi-head with three heads on one outdoor unit is $5,500–$8,500 installed, a common spend on single-storey brick homes in Marayong and Doonside that want the living area and bedrooms done without going ducted. Landlords get a tax invoice for their records with every install.

Frequently asked
Common questions about split system air conditioning in Blacktown
Can you replace splits across several rental properties in Mount Druitt?
Yes. We can quote a group of properties together, arrange access with the agent or tenant for each one, and schedule the installs between tenancies where that suits. Each property gets its own invoice and paperwork for your records. Tell us the rooms, the existing unit brands and any complex rules for townhouses and villas.
Is a multi-head or separate splits better for a Marayong brick home?
In a single-storey brick veneer house the bedrooms usually sit along one side, close to the living area, so a three-head multi-head on one outdoor unit fits well and keeps the yard tidy. Brick walls hold heat into the evening, so the bedroom heads are sized for night use. Separate splits make more sense if one room is far from the others.
Do I need approval for a split in a townhouse complex?
Often, yes. Many complexes in Mount Druitt and Rooty Hill have rules on where outdoor units can sit and how pipework is run on the building. Check with your strata or complex manager first, then send photos of the wall and the proposed outdoor spot. We quote to the permitted position and keep the pipe run as tidy as the building allows.
My Doonside house is near the reserve. Does that change where the unit goes?
It can. Streets near Nurragingy Reserve have more tree cover, which drops leaves onto outdoor coils. The larger blocks usually give us room to place the condenser clear of overhanging branches and away from bedroom windows. Keeping it in the open also makes the coil easier to clean at each service.
