Cartwright is a compact south-west suburb where most homes were built between the 1960s and 1980s. We see a mix of older brick homes and fibro cottages here. The fibro places usually have low-pitch roofs that make ducted impractical, so a couple of split systems is the right call. For brick homes with a bit more roof space, a small ducted system can work well.
After air conditioning in Cartwright? Jay's Air, since 1991. Older homes here mostly take splits around $2,200 each, and ducted where the roof allows runs $8,600 to $10,500. First-time cooling and repairs on old units are the bulk of it. 4.8 stars from 280+ reviews.
Cartwright is a south-west suburb where summers get hot and most homes are older fibro or brick veneer from the 1960s to 1980s. The street layout is tight, the blocks are modest, and a lot of houses still have no air conditioning at all.
For fibro cottages in Cartwright, split systems are the practical option. The roof cavities on older fibro builds are typically too shallow for ducted ductwork. A 5kW split in the living area and a 2.5kW in the main bedroom covers most of these homes well. For brick homes that have a decent roof cavity, a 10kW ducted system handles a 3-bedroom house comfortably with 3 zones. Not sure which way to go? Our sizing guide helps narrow it down.

In most fibro homes in Cartwright the answer is no – the roof cavity is too shallow and low-pitched for standard ductwork. Splits are the right call for those homes. Some larger brick homes in the area have enough roof space for a compact ducted system. We check on site.
If the unit is over 15 years old and the repair is more than $500, replacement is usually the better call. Parts for systems from the late 1990s and early 2000s are getting hard to find, and some R22 systems cannot be legally regassed anymore. We give you a straight answer when we inspect.

In Cartwright, the main question is whether your home can take ducted or whether splits are the better fit. Fibro homes almost always need splits - the roof pitch and cavity depth do not allow for standard ductwork. Brick homes from the 1970s and 1980s often have enough space for a compact ducted system if they are single-storey.
Whatever you go with, make sure the system is sized for the room. An undersized split runs flat-out without cooling properly. The pricing guide gives a realistic budget for each option.
