Split System Air Conditioning Northern Beaches

Almost always, if the outdoor unit goes on a balcony, a roof or a common wall, because those are usually common property. We help with the application by supplying the unit specifications, the proposed position and the pipe route. Some newer buildings already have a set position for condensers. Tell us if approval is already in place and we can move straight to booking.

Anything within a few streets of the ocean, which takes in Manly, Queenscliff, Curl Curl, Collaroy, the beach side of Narrabeen, Newport, Avalon Beach and Palm Beach. Harbour and Pittwater frontages at Clontarf, Seaforth and Bayview get corrosion-resistant coils too, even though their salt load is milder. Inland suburbs such as Belrose, Davidson and Frenchs Forest usually take a standard outdoor unit.

Often, yes. Upper-level additions on the ridge streets catch westerly sun through the late afternoon and run noticeably warmer than the original ground floor. A split sized for that room load cools it without running a whole-house system. If you want to cover several upstairs rooms, a multi-head system or a ducted zone for the addition may suit better, and we compare both at the assessment.

Yes. We plan the layout around the rooms used on a typical stay, then check the chosen model supports the remote control you want, so the house can be brought to temperature before you arrive. The outdoor units still need a careful spot, because the headland takes salt wind from both the ocean and Pittwater. Corrosion-protected coils are standard there.

Wherever it can sit level, be reached for servicing and stay within a sensible pipe run of the indoor heads. On terraced and split-level blocks that can mean a platform or bracket on a lower level, with a long run of stairs between that spot and the switchboard. We plan access before quoting, since a narrow side path can mean extra lifting gear on the day.
