Deciding between ducted and split system air conditioning? Here's what Sydney homeowners need to know.
Choosing the right air conditioning system is a major investment, and getting it wrong can mean years of high running costs or uneven comfort.
Ducted Systems
Ducted air conditioning provides whole-home climate control through a single outdoor unit and hidden ceiling ducts. It's the premium option for larger homes, offering a seamless, invisible finish.
Split Systems
Split systems are more affordable and ideal for cooling specific rooms. Multiple units can be installed for a multi-room solution at a lower upfront cost than ducted.
Running Costs
Ducted systems cost more to run if you're cooling the whole house, but zoning controls let you cool only the rooms you need, keeping costs manageable.
Our Advice
For apartments and small homes, split systems make the most sense. For larger family homes, ducted delivers superior comfort and property value. Tradie Heroes offer free on-site assessments to help you decide.
