Covering Narwee and the surrounding St George suburbs.
Our Narwee work is mostly ducted replacements and repairs on older systems in established family homes.

Narwee is one of those quiet, well-established St George suburbs where families have been in the same home for decades. Most of the housing is brick veneer from the 1950s to the 70s, and a lot of those homes are still running their original ducted system - or the one that replaced it 15 years ago. We do a steady amount of ducted replacements and repairs here. It's not a flashy suburb but it's consistent work and the homes are easy to access.

After air conditioning in Narwee? Jay's Air, since 1991. Ducted for a 1950s to 70s brick-veneer home runs $9,000 to $11,000, and a split is about $2,000 for a townhouse. Quiet streets, long-term owners, plenty of aging systems due for a swap. 4.8 stars from 280+ reviews.

Narwee is a small, settled suburb in the St George area - mostly older brick homes on standard blocks, quiet streets, and long-time residents. It's not the kind of suburb that makes the news, but it's one we work in regularly. The housing stock is from the 1950s through to the 70s, and a fair number of those homes are on their second or third air conditioning system by now.

Older Systems in Narwee Homes - When to Replace

For a typical Narwee brick veneer home - say a 3 or 4-bedroom single-storey on a 550sqm block - a 10kW to 12kW ducted system is the standard fit. If your current system is 15-plus years old and starting to need regular repairs, it's usually cheaper in the long run to replace it. Modern inverter ducted systems use significantly less power than the old fixed-speed units they're replacing.

Air conditioning repairs Narwee homes come to us for most often involve older ducted systems - refrigerant leaks, dead capacitors, and fan motor failures are the most common. Some are worth fixing, some point to a replacement. We'll quote the repair and give you a straight opinion before you commit.

For split system installation Narwee townhouses and the newer semis along the main roads are the most common fit. A single 2.5kW or 3.5kW wall split covers most of those spaces and the install is straightforward.

We cover Narwee along with the surrounding suburbs - Beverly Hills, Peakhurst, and Mortdale. Use the air conditioning size calculator or see our pricing guide.

12kW Ducted Replacement - Narwee

Problem

Customer had a 2001 Kelvinator ducted system that had been losing refrigerant for two seasons. Compressor was drawing high current and the repair quote from another company was nearly as much as a new system.

Diagnosis

Replaced with a 12kW Panasonic ducted system, 4 zones, new insulated ductwork. Total cost $9,600. Job completed in one day.

2.5kW Split Install - Narwee Townhouse

Problem

New owner of a townhouse in Narwee had no cooling. The development had no ducted provision and the body corp had limited space for outdoor units.

Diagnosis

Installed a 2.5kW Daikin reverse-cycle split in the main living area with the outdoor unit on a wall bracket in the approved location. Total cost $1,950.

Capacitor + Refrigerant Top-Up - Older Split

Problem

Customer's 2007 Daikin 3.5kW wall split was cooling poorly and making a clicking noise on startup. Asked if it was worth repairing given the age.

Diagnosis

Failed start capacitor plus a small refrigerant leak at a flare fitting. Replaced capacitor, fixed leak, topped up refrigerant. Total repair cost $340. System was otherwise sound and worth fixing.

FAQs

Air Conditioning Narwee - Common Questions

FAQs

For a typical Narwee brick veneer home – 3 to 4 bedrooms on a 550sqm block – you’re looking at $8,500 to $11,000 for a fully installed ducted system with zoning. Split systems start from around $1,850 for a 2.5kW. All pricing is fixed and quoted upfront. See our air conditioning pricing guide for the full breakdown.

At 18 years, it depends on what’s failed. A small leak or a capacitor is worth fixing if the compressor is still healthy. But if the compressor is starting to struggle or parts are hard to get, the maths usually points to a replacement. Modern inverter systems are also significantly cheaper to run than 18-year-old fixed-speed units. We’ll give you an honest steer when we quote.

Air Conditioning Advice for Narwee Homeowners

Most older brick homes in Narwee are well suited to ducted air conditioning - good roof access and compact single-storey layouts make install and zoning straightforward. If you're upgrading from an older system, the new unit will cool faster and use less power.

For townhouses and semis without roof access, a reverse-cycle wall split is the practical choice. A 2.5kW handles a standard living area, a 3.5kW is better for open-plan. Not sure which way to go? Check our pricing page or give us a call.
