Covering Lidcombe and the Olympic Park area.
Lidcombe's a real mix, so we do plenty of apartment splits and house repairs.

Lidcombe is two suburbs in one. Older brick and fibro homes on one street, brand new apartment towers on the next. That mix keeps us busy with everything from a single split in a unit to a full ducted system in a freestanding home. We've been doing air con since 1991 and we know both ends of it.

30+ Years

Lidcombe runs from post-war brick and fibro houses through to a wave of new high-rise apartments near the station and Olympic Park. Units mostly take a single high-wall split with strata rules on where the outdoor unit goes. The older houses suit splits or a ducted retrofit where there's roof room.
About Us

Air Conditioning in Lidcombe

Air conditioning in Lidcombe depends a lot on what you live in. In an apartment it's almost always a single split sorted around the strata rules. In a house you've got more options, splits room by room or ducted for the whole place.

For a typical Lidcombe apartment, a 2.5 to 5kW high-wall split does the job depending on the room. For a 3-bedroom house, a couple of splits or a 10kW ducted setup is the go. Run your rooms through our sizing calculator for a rough kW figure.

Apartments versus houses in Lidcombe

For units, the main thing is the outdoor unit. Strata usually dictates where it can sit, so we check that before we quote, no nasty surprises later. Most units run fine off one well-placed split. For the older freestanding homes, we'll look at whether ducted's worth it or whether a couple of splits make more sense for how you actually use the place.

After a ballpark first? Our pricing guide lays out splits and ducted.

We're across this whole patch every week, so we also cover Auburn, Berala and Homebush nearby.

FAQs

Air Conditioning Lidcombe - Common Questions

FAQs

A single high-wall split installed is typically $2,100 to $3,000 depending on size and the run. Strata and tricky outdoor placement can affect it, so we check that before quoting. You get a written quote first.

We deal with the strata side all the time. We check where the outdoor unit’s allowed to go and work to those rules before we quote, so there’s no drama with the building later.

Depends on age and fault. A part on a 6 or 7 year old unit is usually worth fixing. If it’s well over a decade and the compressor’s gone, replacing makes more sense. Ben diagnoses it and we give you the honest call.

Air Conditioning Advice for Lidcombe Homeowners

Apartment owners, get the outdoor unit placement sorted with strata first. It's the thing that trips most unit installs up.

House owners, don't write off ducted just because the home's older. A slimline system fits a lot of these places. And if your current unit's struggling, get it properly diagnosed before you spend a cent on it.
