Manly is beachside, and that changes how we do air con. Salt air is hard on outdoor units, so the install and the gear both matter.
What system suits a Manly home. For an apartment or unit it is almost always a single split or a multi-head, and strata usually controls where the outdoor unit can sit, so we sort that before quoting. Semis and Federation homes can take ducted if there is roof space, otherwise a multi-head does the job without tearing up a period roof. Whatever goes in near the coast, we set it up to handle the salt. Use the sizing calculator for a rough kW figure, or the split system quote tool for a ballpark. To compare running costs and star ratings, the government energy rating site is a good reference. We also cover Brookvale and across the lower North Shore.
We do repairs across Manly Monday to Friday. The big one here is salt-air damage, corroded outdoor units, seized fan motors and tired contactors. We also get splits low on gas and drainage issues in units. Ben handles the diagnostics. You pay a call-out, we find the fault, then quote the fix before we touch it. See our air conditioning repairs page for how it works.
We have been going since 1991 and we know the coast. All our installs are done by our own crew, no subcontractors. Mick runs the bigger jobs, Ben does diagnostics and repairs. Fixed pricing, a written quote before anything gets ordered, and we set every coastal install up to handle the salt air. We use Panasonic as our main brand, also Daikin and Actron, and we service every brand. NSW Contractor Licence 273312C, ARCtick AU13058, 4.8 stars from 280+ reviews.

Jays Air Jobs Done in Manly
Real local work, real costs.
Yes, big time. Salt corrodes outdoor units faster near the beach. We use the right placement and set-up to slow that down, and a yearly clean keeps a coastal unit going much longer.
Almost always a split or a multi-head. Units rarely have roof space for ducting, and strata controls the outdoor unit spot, so we sort that with the building before we quote.
A single split runs from about $1,800, a multi-head for a unit is $6,500 to $8,500, and ducted for a house is $9,000 to $12,500. You get a written quote before anything is ordered.
