0450 963 633Air Conditioning in West End, Brisbane
West End is low, close to the river and sheltered from some breezes, so summer nights can stay humid. Its homes range from timber cottages with tin roofs to apartment towers on Montague Road with full-height glass. Most of them are cooled room by room with split systems. Cockatoo Plumbing Electrical is based in Toowong, Brisbane, and installs split system air conditioning in West End houses, apartments and shops. Phone 0450 963 633.
Cottages under tin roofs
An uninsulated iron roof turns a cottage bedroom into an oven by late afternoon. A correctly sized split system in each bedroom and one in the living area usually works better than a single large unit trying to push air through doorways. Adding ceiling insulation at the same time makes every unit work less.
Apartments with big glass
West-facing glass on a riverside apartment can add more heat than the rest of the room combined. We size for the glass and the orientation, not just the floor area. The outdoor unit goes where the body corporate allows, often a designated balcony position, and condensate is drained so it does not drip onto the balcony below.
Outdoor units on flood-prone streets
On streets that flooded in 2011 or 2022, a split system’s outdoor unit is better on a wall bracket or raised stand than on a ground slab. Check your address on Brisbane City Council’s Flood Awareness Map and we will plan the height and the cable route accordingly.
Shops and studios
Small tenancies on Boundary Street and around the markets often need one or two wall or ceiling cassette units. Landlord approval for the outdoor unit and pipe route comes first.
