Lugarno sits quietly on its peninsula above the Georges River - bigger family homes, plenty rebuilt or extended over the years, held by owners who notice the difference between tidy work and quick work. We've serviced the St George riverside for decades, and the Lugarno jobs are the satisfying kind: proper zoned systems in homes built to last.
After air conditioning in Lugarno? Jay's Air has been doing it since 1991. The typical bigger Lugarno home wants 12.5 to 16kW of zoned ducted at $8,000 to $12,500 installed. A 2.5kW split for one room is $1,800 to $2,100. Fault-finding is $250 plus GST with the fix quoted before we start. 4.8 stars from 280+ reviews.
The 2000s systems in the rebuilds are reaching their swap years, and the same honest rule applies: over $600 of repairs on 15-plus-year gear, the money belongs in a new inverter that will cool the same house for less power.
The water-facing rooms that sell these homes also load them up - big glass toward the river catches serious afternoon sun, and rooms like that need sizing for the view, not the floor area. We size for the glass, zone the water side separately where the plan allows, and the showpiece room stays usable in January.
Two-storey homes get the zoning treatment - sleeping zones upstairs running independent of the living core. Numbers first: the sizing calculator and the pricing guide.
Lugarno sits on our St George run with Peakhurst, Mortdale and Penshurst.
The ducted air conditioning Lugarno orders runs bigger than the St George average: 12.5 to 16kW, 4 to 6 zones, two storeys and river-glass rooms handled properly. Mick has run our installs since 2009. New installs and 2000s replacements land at $8,000 to $12,500 fixed, duct runs reused where sound, airflow balanced at commissioning, lifetime workmanship warranty.
After ducted specifically? We have a dedicated ducted air conditioning Lugarno page with sizing, pricing and real local jobs.
Because tidy matters here - vents placed thoughtfully, penetrations clean, outdoor units sited for silence, and a system commissioned with instruments rather than optimism.
Mick Daly runs the ducted work and has since 2009. Noah Hall handles the splits. Ben does quotes and diagnostics himself, and for air conditioning repairs Lugarno gets measured answers on gear worth diagnosing properly.

Jays Air Jobs Done in Lugarno
Three recent ones from the peninsula.
The bigger Lugarno homes want 12.5 to 16kW zoned at $8,000 to $12,500 installed. Replacements reusing sound duct runs come in at the friendlier end. Fixed quote after we walk the house.
The glass. Water-facing windows catch serious afternoon sun, and rooms like that need sizing for the view – often a dedicated split or its own zone. Sized right, the showpiece room works year-round.
Usually it’s a seized zone damper motor – a $330-odd fix that gets misdiagnosed as end-of-life constantly. We measure before anyone talks replacement.
Jay’s Air. Family run since 1991, our own blokes not subbies, fixed pricing, 4.8 stars from 280+ reviews. Licence 273312C, ARCtick AU13058. (02) 9820 4500.
From a 16kW six-zone system in a riverside rebuild to a $330 damper fix that saved a system, we install, repair and service the lot across Lugarno and the peninsula.
Two-storey comfort lives on zoning - sleeping zones upstairs with real airflow allocated, living core independent. It costs little at install and pays every quarter.
Rebuilding or extending? Rough the aircon in during the build and size for the final floor plan, glass included. The retrofit always costs more than the rough-in.
