Main living room
A compact wall split for the room you use most.
Daceyville was planned in the early 1900s as Australia's first public housing garden suburb, with cottages set in green front gardens along curving streets. Much of it is a heritage conservation area, and the unified streetscape is the whole point.
Updated October 2026
Air conditioning in Daceyville cottages should be invisible from the street. In a heritage garden suburb, outdoor units belong behind the house or along a side setback screened by planting, never on the front facade. Compact cottage rooms suit small, quiet splits or a single multi-split outdoor unit serving several rooms. Alpha & Omega has worked in Sydney's heritage areas since 1989.
The value of a garden suburb lies in the whole street looking consistent: matching cottages, front gardens and hedges. A single visible outdoor unit on a front wall stands out.
We plan every install so the equipment sits behind or beside the cottage, out of street view, with pipework routed neatly.
Small cottages usually need simple, compact systems.

Several indoor units with one discreet outdoor unit at the rear.
Hidden ducts in the roof space with small ceiling grilles.

At the rear or along a screened side setback, out of view from the street.
Often, depending on pipe lengths and the new position. We assess it on site.
We protect gardens and hedges while we work and plan routes to avoid established plants.
Sometimes, if the roof space allows. Otherwise a multi-split works well.
