Why locals call us
Why Households Trust Us With Replacement Work
Replacing a system is a big call, so it pays to have it made by people who know these homes. We work across Kilburn and the inner north every week, and we'll tell you honestly whether repair or replacement makes more financial sense.
Every job is quoted at a fixed price before anyone lifts a tool, carried out under ARC Licence L162586, and backed by our Lifetime Labour Warranty.
Common problems
Signs Your Aircon Is Past Repair
Some faults are worth fixing. Others are the system telling you it's done. Call us out if you're seeing any of this:
- Repairs keep recurring on a unit more than a decade old
- Running costs climbing every summer on the same usage
- The system can't hold the house on days over 35
- Parts are obsolete and the fix approaches a new unit's price
Any of these point the same way. A new system costs less over five years than propping up a dying one, and it comes with manufacturer and workmanship warranties behind it.
In detail
What a Full Swap-Over Involves
A replacement is more than unbolting one box and hanging another. Here's what the day looks like:
Old unit out
We decommission the existing system, recover the refrigerant to current requirements and pull the unit, pipework and brackets without damaging walls or roof space.
New system in
The new unit goes in level, sealed and mounted properly. On double brick and rendered cottages that means the right fixings, not shortcuts.
Electrical and testing
We check the circuit, run the system through a full cycle and show you the controls before we leave. You get the price in writing before any of it starts.
What you get
Reverse Cycle or Split System: Picking the New Unit
The housing stock decides this more than any brochure does. The pre-war cottages and Housing Trust-era semis that dominate the streets off Churchill Road were never built with cooling in mind, so the system has to suit the house.
Split systems
Ducted
Reverse cycle
We install and service Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, Fujitsu and ActronAir, and we'll talk you into the right fit rather than the biggest ticket. Our installation page covers new systems in more depth.

In detail
When a Repair Stops Making Sense
We won't sell you a new unit to fix a $200 fault.
But sometimes the numbers just don't work. When the compressor is failing on a fifteen-year-old system, or the parts no longer exist, another repair is money into a hole. If a repair stops making financial sense, we'll say so before you spend a cent, and we can quote the replacement the same visit. That honesty is a fair chunk of why we've built 500+ five-star reviews over ten years operating.

Good to know
Air Conditioning Replacement Questions
How do I know my system needs replacing rather than another repair?
If the unit is past fifteen years old and faults keep returning, replacement usually costs less over the next five years than repeated repairs on a system near the end of its life.
Can you replace a ducted system in an older brick home near Kilburn?
Yes. Many of the post-war semis around Kilburn have roof cavities that take new duct runs, and we assess the access on site before we quote anything.
How long are we without cooling during a swap-over?
Most split system swap-overs are done in a day, while a ducted replacement usually takes two days depending on the roof space and how the old unit comes out.
Do you take the old unit away?
We decommission the old system, recover the refrigerant properly and remove the unit and pipework as part of the quoted job, so there is nothing left for you to deal with.
Will a new system cope with Kilburn's hot summer days?
A correctly sized reverse-cycle unit will hold a brick cottage comfortable through consecutive days over 40, which is exactly why we measure the home rather than guess the size.
