Covering the whole Inner West.
Ducted suits the freestanding Federation homes, and we know which Inner West houses can take it.

We cover the whole Inner West: Marrickville, Leichhardt, Ashfield, Balmain, Newtown, Petersham, Dulwich Hill, Summer Hill, Burwood, Five Dock, Haberfield and Drummoyne. It's a real mix, and ducted isn't right for every home here. The terraces and semis with low-pitch roofs usually suit splits or multi-head, but the bigger freestanding Federation and brick homes through Haberfield, Five Dock, Burwood and Croydon can take ducted, and we do plenty of those. We've worked the Inner West since 1991 with our own crew, and we'll tell you straight which suits your place.

Inner West

The Inner West runs from Victorian terraces and semis through Newtown, Leichhardt, Marrickville and Petersham, where low-pitch roofs usually rule out ducted, to bigger freestanding Federation and full-brick homes at Haberfield, Five Dock, Burwood, Croydon and Drummoyne with the roof space for ducted, to warehouse conversions and strata units throughout. Heritage and tight access are common.

Which Inner West Homes Can Take Ducted

Not every Inner West home suits ducted, and we won't pretend otherwise. The terraces and semis through Newtown, Leichhardt and Marrickville have low-pitch roofs with no room for ductwork, so a split or multi-head is the smart call there. But the bigger freestanding Federation and full-brick homes at Haberfield, Five Dock, Burwood, Croydon and Drummoyne have the roof space, and ducted gives them even, quiet cooling across the whole house. We assess your roof and tell you straight which way to go.

We run Panasonic, Daikin and Actron and service every brand. Mick handles the bigger jobs since 2009.

Check our sizing calculator and pricing guide. We cover the whole area including Haberfield, Five Dock, Burwood and Leichhardt. For repairs see our ducted repairs page.

Ducted in the Inner West's Freestanding Homes

Where ducted works in the Inner West, it's the freestanding Federation and full-brick homes through Haberfield, Five Dock, Burwood and Croydon that have the roof space. We retrofit ducted into these cleanly and zone it to the rooms, working carefully around heritage detail and tight access. For the terraces and semis, we fit splits and multi-heads instead. Ducted air conditioning in the Inner West is about putting the right system in the right home, not forcing it.
