Winston Hills is our regular run. The suburb sits on the border of Blacktown and Hills District and we cover both sides. Most of the ducted systems here are original installs - 15 to 25 years old and starting to show it. When the back bedrooms stay warm and the bills keep climbing, a replacement is nearly always the right call.
Winston Hills is established Hills District territory - mostly brick homes built between the late 1970s and early 1990s, on quarter-acre blocks with good-sized ceiling spaces. The suburb runs along the border of the Blacktown and Hills District council areas, and we cover both sides regularly.
The majority of ducted systems in Winston Hills are now 15 to 25 years old. They still run, but the compressor struggles to hit temperature on hot days, energy bills have crept up, and the back bedrooms are consistently the warmest rooms in the house. When those signs line up, a replacement system is nearly always the right call - and the new system will outperform the old one from day one.
For a typical 4-bedroom Winston Hills brick home you're looking at a 10 to 12kW ducted system with 5 or 6 zones. Double-storey homes or those with a lot of west-facing glass often need 14kW to handle the load properly. An undersized system will run flat out and never quite reach set temperature. A correctly sized one hits temperature and cycles off - which is how it should work. Use our ducted cost calculator to get a realistic price range before you call us.
Split systems are common in Winston Hills too - in older homes where extending ducted isn't practical, in granny flats, or as a top-up for rooms the ducted doesn't quite reach. Our online split quote tool gives a fixed price in a few minutes. If you're unsure what size you need, our sizing calculator accounts for ceiling height, insulation and window orientation.
We cover Winston Hills and nearby Seven Hills, Baulkham Hills, Blacktown, and Pennant Hills.
Winston Hills has more ducted systems than most suburbs its size - they came standard in the brick homes that went up here in the 70s and 80s. Most are now at the end of their useful life. We replace them with efficient modern systems that cool the whole house properly, use less power, and come with a 5-year parts warranty. If yours is getting noisy or struggling on hot days, it's worth a quote. One day, done.

Jay's Air Conditioning has been covering Winston Hills since the early 1990s. The homes here are our bread and butter - large brick family homes with ceiling spaces built for ducted, systems that were installed when the houses were new and haven't been touched since. We know the suburb well and we're in it most weeks.
Every ducted replacement we quote in Winston Hills is a fixed price. That means the number we give you upfront is the number on the invoice. No hourly rates, no call-out fees added after the fact, no charge for longer-than-expected installs. We've found it's the only way to build trust with customers who've been burned by variable pricing before.
Mick Daly runs our Hills District install team and has been with Jay's since 2009. He knows which houses in Winston Hills have tight ceiling access, which ones have the old 3-phase power setup that affects system selection, and which zones consistently run hot. That knowledge makes a real difference to how the job gets quoted and how it gets done.
We're fully licensed - NSW Contractor Licence 273312C, ARCtick AU13058 - and we carry public liability and workers comp on every job. We operate Monday to Friday 7am to 5pm, with Saturday work by arrangement. If something goes wrong after installation, we come back. That's just how we operate.
Most quotes take about 20 minutes on site. We check the ceiling space, measure the rooms, assess the power supply and give you a fixed price on the spot. No back-and-forth, no surprises. Book via the form on site or give us a call and we'll get something in the diary.
Before you commit to anything, use our how it works page to understand the process, or read why customers choose Jay's Air Conditioning over the bigger operators. We're a family business, not a franchise - and that matters when it comes to accountability.
