Local knowledge
Planning a split system in Leichhardt
Federation cottages and semis, interwar Californian bungalows, a few Victorian terraces toward Parramatta Rd, 1960s brick walk-up flats, shop-top apartments on Norton St and 2000s-onward apartment blocks along Parramatta Rd. Start with the rooms you want to heat and cool, then check indoor wall space and the outdoor pipe route.
Sydney's traditional Little Italy, a flat grid of Federation and interwar streets running from the Norton St strip out to the Hawthorne Canal. Include photos of the proposed outdoor position so access, drainage and clearance can be assessed with the room layout.

Frequently asked
Common questions about split system air conditioning in Leichhardt
How much does a split system cost in Leichhardt including installation?
Single-head: $1,800–$3,200 including installation, depending on capacity. Multi-head (3 heads): $5,500–$8,500 installed. Fixed quote after we see the room and outdoor location.
What outdoor exposure should I allow for in Leichhardt?
Leichhardt sits just far enough inland that the harbour breeze which cools Balmain has mostly run out by the time it reaches Norton St, so summer afternoons are still and the heat hangs on into the evening. Streets nearer the Hawthorne Canal pick up a little more air off Iron Cove, while the Parramatta Rd and City West Link edges add traffic noise that keeps windows closed whatever the weather. Nights stay humid through January and February, which is why the front bedrooms of the older cottages are usually the first rooms residents ask us to fix.
Single split or multi-head for my Leichhardt home?
Compare the rooms used together and the available outdoor positions. Separate splits offer independent systems; a multi-head connects several indoor heads to one outdoor unit. We check the proposed model’s pipe limits and capacity against your layout before recommending either.
