Air Conditioning Darling Point Cool Rooms, Uninterrupted Views
Darling Point apartments are bought for one thing above all: the view across the harbour. The last thing anyone wants is an indoor unit hanging above the window or an outdoor unit sitting in the middle of the balcony.

Air conditioning in Darling Point apartments should work around the view, not in front of it. Slim ducted units hidden in a bulkhead, wall splits placed on side walls rather than above the glass, and outdoor units tucked to the edge of balconies or in plant areas keep sightlines clear. We size for the big harbour-facing windows so rooms stay comfortable. Alpha & Omega has installed in Sydney apartments since 1989.

Darling Point FAQs
Darling Point Apartment Air Conditioning Questions
Can I have air conditioning without a unit above my windows?
Yes. Slim ducted in a bulkhead, or wall splits on side walls, both keep the window wall clear.
Where does the outdoor unit go on a small balcony?
At the far edge, on a bracket or in a building plant area if available, with space for airflow and servicing.
Do harbour-facing rooms need a bigger system?
Usually, yes. Large areas of glass facing the water add heat, so we size for the glazing.
Is slim ducted possible in an existing apartment?
Often, if a bulkhead can be added along a hallway. We check ceiling space on site.
Will my building need to approve the install?
Most do. We supply the details your strata manager asks for.
Is your installation team licensed?
Darling Point installs are done under ARC licence AU54289 and NSW contractor licence 329810C.
