After air conditioning in Macarthur? Jay's Air Conditioning has been installing, repairing and servicing it out here since 1991. For a typical 3 to 4 bedroom Macarthur home, a 12.5kW to 14kW ducted system runs from around $8,000 to $12,000 installed. Split systems start from around $1,800 for a 2.5kW room unit. Summers out here hit the high 30s and low 40s, so getting the right size matters more than it does closer to the coast.

What Macarthur jobs usually look like
The older streets in Campbelltown, Ingleburn and Camden are full of 1970s and 1980s brick veneer homes where the original ducted unit has finally given up. Those are straight replacements with a modern Panasonic or Daikin inverter, usually 12.5kW to 14kW with 5 or 6 zones, and the roof space is generous enough that the job is done in a day.
The newer estates from Gregory Hills through Oran Park to Spring Farm are a different job. A lot of those homes went in with no air conditioning at all, or with a single split in the living room. Ducted for the whole house is the common request, and the two-storey builds need zoning done properly so the upstairs bedrooms actually get cold at night.
Out on the acreage around Menangle, Picton and Tahmoor the homes are big and the summers are brutal, so we are usually talking 16kW to 20kW ducted with 8 to 10 zones, or a ducted system plus a couple of splits for the sheds and studios.
