Air conditioning Elwood

Victorian Places records that into the postwar years, scorching summers made Elwood Beach a more pleasant place to sleep overnight than “uncooled, uninsulated suburban cottages”. Today the suburb is mostly flats: at the 2021 Census, 72.1% of occupied dwellings were flats or apartments and just 14.2% were separate houses.

That makes air conditioning Elwood flats mostly a split system job, done inside heritage streets where the outdoor unit and its piping need careful placement. We install wall-mounted and multi-head split systems from Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, Panasonic and Hisense, among others.

Split systems for Elwood flats and heritage streets

Large parts of the suburb sit inside Heritage Overlay areas and precincts, including the Elwood Canal Precinct, the Glen Huntly Road and Ormond Road area, and the Addison Street and Milton Street, Byron Street and Mason Avenue, and McCrae Street precincts. Port Phillip’s heritage policy encourages air conditioning units and piping on heritage places to be concealed so they are not visible from a street (other than a lane) or significant public open space, and under Clause 43.01-1 a planning permit can be needed for services visible from a street or public park.

Many of the suburb’s dwellings, large and small, were built between 1910 and 1930. For a flat in one of those buildings, a sensible plan:

a wall-mounted split system in the main living space, with the outdoor unit in a rear courtyard, on a balcony or on the roof, where your building allows;
a multi-head system if two or three rooms need conditioning but there is space for only one outdoor unit;
piping kept inside or at the rear, away from street-facing walls.

Own a flat you rent out? From 1 March 2027, when a gas or electric heater in the main living area of a Victorian rental home permanently fails, the replacement must be an energy efficient electric system, such as reverse cycle air conditioning.

Excellent service. Was told it would take up to 2 weeks for new heater to be installed. Got a call the next morning that they had a cancellation and was done that day. Both men that was sent out were very helpful and polite.
