Local knowledge

Designing ducted for Sydney homes

Sydney's housing stock is more varied than almost anywhere in the country. Federation and interwar homes often hide shallow, cut-up roof spaces that call for slimline indoor units and careful duct routing, post-war brick homes usually offer the friendliest cavities, and newer two-storey builds need ceiling and bulkhead outlets split so both levels condition evenly.

The climate pulls in two directions: summer humidity asks for moisture removal, and homes west of the harbour cop hotter afternoons than the coast. We design for both with day and night zoning, return air positioned for the whole floor, and capacity taken from your actual floor plan. Whole-home running costs sit at roughly $2–$4 per hour.

Frequently asked

Ducted questions from Sydney homes

How much does ducted air conditioning cost in Sydney?

Compact single-storey homes generally land in the $11,000–$13,000 band, a typical 4-bed family home runs $13,000–$16,000, and large or double-storey homes start around $16,000. Enter your address on our package builder and you will see a sized system and an installed price for your home in about a minute.

Will ducted fit in my roof space?

Usually, yes. Slimline indoor units suit the shallow roof spaces common in Federation and interwar homes, and where a cavity genuinely cannot take ducting we look at bulkhead runs through hallways and robes. It is one of the first things we confirm at the site measure, so you are never guessing.

Which parts of Sydney do you install ducted in?

We install across Sydney, with dedicated local teams and suburb guides for the Northern Beaches, Upper North Shore and Lower North Shore. Wherever you are, the process is the same: instant price from your address, then a site measure to fix the number.

How many zones should a Sydney family home have?

Most 3 to 4 bedroom homes run best with 4–6 zones: living areas grouped for the day, bedrooms grouped for the night, and any study or media room on its own switch. Zoning is what keeps a ducted system economical, because you are rarely conditioning the whole house at once.

How long does a ducted installation take?

A straightforward single-storey install is usually done in one to two days. Double-storey homes, bulkhead work or switchboard upgrades can add a day. We confirm the timeframe at the $99 in-home assessment, which comes off your final invoice.

Are your installers licensed?

Yes. Every installation is carried out by ARCtick licensed technicians, and we handle the refrigerant handling requirements and electrical certification that go with it. You get manufacturer-backed warranties on Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric and the other brands we fit.
