Covering East Hills and the Georges River Corridor.
Most of our East Hills work is repairs on aging systems and ducted replacements in older brick homes on the river edge.

East Hills is a quiet residential suburb on the East Hills line, tucked between Panania and the Georges River. Most homes here are full brick from the 1950s and 1960s, on blocks that back onto Salt Pan Creek or bush reserve. It is a smaller suburb than its neighbours, and the work we do here is mostly repairs on aging systems and ducted replacements in homes that have run the same unit for 25 to 30 years.

30+ Years

East Hills homes are mostly 1950s to 1970s full brick on sloping or bush-backed blocks, typically 550 to 750 square metres. The roof cavities are well suited to ducted installs. Some blocks have steep falls toward the creek, which can require a non-standard outdoor unit placement on a stilt bracket or a raised pad.

Older Systems and the River Edge in East Hills

A lot of East Hills homes have been running the same ducted system since the early 1990s. The bush and creek setting means leaves, possum damage and moisture can shorten the life of outdoor units faster than in more open suburbs. When systems start losing zones or the compressor gives up, we get the call.

Air conditioning repairs East Hills homeowners need most often are zone motor faults, refrigerant leaks on older splits, and capacitor replacements on units that have been running flat-out through summer after summer. Ben does diagnostics in this area and can usually sort a repair in one visit.

For split system installation East Hills is a good fit for homes that want to cool a single room or a home office without pulling full ducted ductwork through the house. We cover East Hills alongside Panania, Revesby and Picnic Point. Check the sizing calculator or the pricing guide.

Ducted Replacement - East Hills Brick Home

Problem

A 3-bedroom brick home backing onto Salt Pan Creek had a 1991 Mitsubishi ducted system with two failed zones. The owners had been living with half the house cooling properly for over a year.

Diagnosis

Ben found the zone board and two zone motors failed, plus the compressor was drawing high current. Full replacement was the right call. Mick installed a 10kW Panasonic 4-zone system. Total cost: $8,800.

Split Install - Home Office East Hills

Problem

The owners had converted a double garage into a home office. The existing ducted system did not reach it and extending the ductwork through the new slab was not practical.

Diagnosis

Noah installed a 5kW Daikin wall-mounted split with the outdoor unit on a stilt bracket on the side of the house due to the sloping block. Total cost: $2,700.

Ducted Repair - Zone Motor and Capacitor

Problem

A 2000 Carrier ducted system in East Hills had one bedroom zone that would not open. The homeowner had been cooling the rest of the house but the main bedroom was unusable in summer.

Diagnosis

Ben replaced the failed zone motor and a run capacitor that was on the way out. Zones all working again. Total cost: $360.

A split system for an East Hills home starts around $1,800 to $2,100 for a 2.5kW unit, or $2,500 to $3,000 for a 5kW. A ducted replacement in a 3 to 4 bedroom brick home typically runs $8,500 to $11,000 installed. Fixed price before we start.

Yes – the 1950s to 1970s brick homes in East Hills generally have good roof cavities that handle ductwork well. The main thing to check is outdoor unit placement on sloping blocks, which sometimes needs a stilt bracket or a raised concrete pad. We assess this at the quote.

The bush and creek environment means outdoor units in East Hills pick up more leaf debris and moisture than in more open suburbs. Regular servicing – including cleaning the outdoor coil and checking the drain – keeps these systems running longer. Ben can show you what to look for.

Air Conditioning Advice for East Hills Homeowners

For homes that back onto bush or the creek, the outdoor unit needs a bit more attention than average. Leaf debris blocks the outdoor coil and moisture from the creek can cause corrosion on contacts and capacitors faster than in more open areas. An annual service keeps these issues from becoming expensive.

Split systems are a good option if you only need to cool one or two rooms, or if your home does not have the roof access for a ducted install. A 5kW or 7.1kW unit covers a decent open-plan living area. Call us and we will tell you which way makes more sense for your place.
