A/C Sydney

swimming in a sea · 2012-09-18 09:06:25

Hey, I'm off to Sydney in a few weeks and have been looking up places to live, I must say I'm surprised to say how little places say they have air conditioning, I thought in a hot place like Sydney A/C would be standard especially in new builds. Just wondering what people's experience of this is?

Most new houses have A/C for cooling during summer and heating in the winter either ducted or split system, older houses might at best only have a window unit that hang off the window (about the size of a big microwave oven) that just cools the one room usually a bedroom. Otherwise I have seen plenty older stand alone houses without any.

Any new apartment buildings definitely should have ducted A/C.
