Air conditioning Frankston

Frankston sits on the eastern shoreline of Port Phillip and became a popular seaside destination for Melbourne in the 1880s. Living by the bay is the first thing we weigh up when planning air conditioning Frankston homes, because salt air is a factor in where an outdoor unit should sit.

Over its 1992 to 2018 record, the Bureau’s Frankston Beach station averaged 19.6 days a year at 30°C or hotter and 3.1 days at 35°C or hotter, with a July mean minimum of 8.0°C. Winter nights count as much as summer days, so a reverse cycle system that heats as well as cools earns its place. With 73.4% of occupied homes being separate houses at the 2021 Census, ducted air conditioning and multi-room split systems both have a role.

Salt air and heritage listings: cooling Frankston

Close to the foreshore. The locality meets the Port Phillip coastline, so for homes near the water we plan around sea air: a sheltered outdoor unit position away from direct onshore wind where possible, and a conversation about corrosion protection when you choose a model.

Heritage listings. The Davey Street Precinct (HO49, 8-18 Davey Street) is on the Heritage Overlay, as are individually listed houses including Somersby, Tarraleah and Stern House on Gould Street. In a Heritage Overlay, a planning permit can be needed for an air conditioner visible from a street (other than a lane) or public park. Ducted air conditioning keeps most of the system out of sight in the roof, and we place the outdoor unit out of street view where possible.

Bushland edges. Parts of the suburb are in the designated Bushfire Prone Area, and the Bushfire Management Overlay applies to parts as well. For a home there, ember protection should be part of any rooftop evaporative cooler plan, and if you would rather avoid a roof unit altogether, ducted reverse cycle keeps the outdoor unit at ground level.

New and infill homes. The planning scheme identifies areas for residential growth within the Frankston Metropolitan Activity Centre and expects new infill housing in established suburban areas. At the 2021 Census, 20.3% of occupied homes were semi-detached or townhouses and 6.1% were flats or apartments; for those, a split system per living area is often the simplest fit.

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.
