0450 963 633Air Conditioning in Spring Hill, Brisbane
Spring Hill’s ridge was prized in the 1850s for its views and cooling breezes, but brick terraces, low-set cottages and west-facing apartments still heat up on a Brisbane summer afternoon. Most homes here are cooled room by room with split systems. Cockatoo Plumbing Electrical is based in Toowong, Brisbane, and supplies and installs split system air conditioning in Spring Hill.

Finding room for the outdoor unit
Terraces and cottages on narrow Spring Hill lots rarely have a spare corner. The outdoor unit may end up in a side passage, on a wall bracket, on a rear deck or on a flat roof section. It needs air around it, a solid mounting and a drain path for condensate, and it should not blow hot air or noise straight into a neighbour’s bedroom window a metre away. Where the home faces the street, we look for a position out of sight from the footpath.
Heavy masonry and heat
Thick brick and stone walls soak up heat during the day and release it at night, so upstairs bedrooms in older terraces can stay warm well into the evening. Sizing for those rooms allows for the stored heat as well as the window area. Timber cottages behave differently: they heat and cool faster, and ceiling insulation makes a larger difference.
Apartments
Apartment owners usually need body corporate approval for the outdoor unit location, the pipe route and any wall penetration. Many buildings set aside a balcony spot or plant area. We work to those rules and keep the pipe run as short and tidy as the building allows.
