Construction
SkyCon Air partners with a range of trusted builders across Sydney to deliver high-quality air conditioning systems for construction projects. We collaborate closely to ensure that our air conditioning solutions seamlessly integrate into your project timeline and meet your specific needs.
On a construction project the air conditioning is never the priority, right up until it becomes the reason for a delay. Ductwork needs to be in before ceiling plaster, outdoor units need roof space before the roof goes on, and drainage falls need to be set before the slab is poured. We work directly to builders and project managers across Sydney, which means we design to your programme and coordinate with other trades rather than arriving at handover to find the ceiling already closed. Residential builds, duplexes, townhouse rows, unit blocks and commercial fit outs are all part of our construction work.
| Stage | What we need settled | What goes wrong without it |
|---|---|---|
| Design and documentation | System selection, capacities, plant locations, riser and duct routes | Late changes that cascade through three other trades |
| Slab and frame | Penetrations, condensate drainage points, sleeve locations | Core holes cut after the fact, or exposed drainage |
| Rough in | Ductwork, refrigerant pipework, wiring routes | Ceilings closed before ducts are in, or bulkheads added later |
| Fit off and commissioning | Access panels, controllers, testing and documentation | Systems that cannot be serviced without cutting plaster |
| Practical completion | Commissioning records, as built drawings, warranties | An occupancy certificate held up over paperwork |
| Project type | What usually suits | The design decision that matters |
|---|---|---|
| New home build | Ducted with zoning, or multi split where outdoor space is tight | Roof void depth and plant position agreed before the roof goes on |
| Duplex | Separate systems per dwelling, or shared plant with independent metering | Acoustic separation and who controls what |
| Townhouse row | Individual split or multi split per residence | Condenser placement that satisfies neighbours and council |
| Multi storey unit block | VRF with per unit metering, or individual systems | Riser space, plant room access and metering for strata |
| Extensions and renovations | Extending existing ductwork or adding zones | Whether the existing system has capacity left |
Construction work gets audited by people who were not there when it was installed. Certifiers, insurers and strata managers all want to see that what was specified is what was built, and that it was commissioned and documented properly. We provide commissioning records, as built documentation and warranty details in a format that supports practical completion rather than delaying it. When the project is a commercial fit out, the documentation obligations go further, which is why our commercial air conditioning work shares the same process.
Most projects of any scale need more than cooling. Basement car parks, stairwells, kitchens, bathrooms and plant rooms all carry ventilation obligations, and some of it is life safety equipment rather than comfort equipment. Our commercial ventilation team handles car park supply systems, stair pressurisation systems and mechanical ventilation, and that work has to be coordinated with the fire engineer and certifier from the design stage rather than bolted on at the end.
Different dwellings and tenancies in the same project often need different systems, and forcing one solution across the whole site usually costs more than it saves. The range of air conditioning types we install covers everything from a single split in a townhouse through to VRF in a unit block, and we will specify per building rather than per project. For installation process and timelines on a single dwelling, see air conditioning installation. Heavier sites with process loads are handled through our industrial air conditioning and warehouse air conditioning teams. Everything sits under air conditioning in Sydney.
At design stage, before the roof and ceilings are set. That is when plant location, roof void depth, riser space and drainage falls can still be changed cheaply. Priced at handover, the same system costs more because every route has to work around what is already built. Early involvement is the single biggest cost saver on a project.
Yes, that is most of our construction work. We work to your programme, attend site coordination meetings, and sequence our rough in and fit off around other trades. You get one point of contact who understands the build sequence rather than a call centre quoting lead times.
Yes. Staged handover is common on unit blocks and townhouse rows, and we plan commissioning in stages to match. What we need early is the sequence, because plant and risers have to be arranged around which sections complete first, not adjusted after the fact.
Commissioning records, as built documentation, equipment schedules with warranties, and evidence of compliance where required. That package is what certifiers and insurers ask for, and having it ready is usually the difference between a clean practical completion and a fortnight of chasing paperwork.
Yes. Car park supply, stair pressurisation, mechanical ventilation and kitchen exhaust all fall within our scope, and on most projects they need coordinating with the fire engineer and certifier anyway. Having one contractor across cooling and ventilation removes a coordination problem rather than creating one.
We can, though it rarely works well to split design from installation. Where we come in mid project we will review what has been designed, flag anything that will not perform, and either work with it or price the correction. We would rather raise it before ceilings close than defend it afterwards.
Both. Supply and install is our usual arrangement because it keeps responsibility for equipment and workmanship in one place. Install only is possible where a builder has existing supply arrangements, and in that case we confirm equipment specification and warranty implications before starting.
As early as the design stage for coordination, and several weeks ahead for the rough in date. Construction schedules move, so we plan around the programme rather than a fixed date and confirm against site progress closer to the time. Getting on the schedule early matters more than the exact week.
Yes, regularly. Duplex and townhouse work is mostly about separation: independent systems per dwelling, condenser placement that keeps neighbours happy and satisfies council requirements, and metering that makes sense if any part is strata titled. Those decisions are cheap at design stage and expensive later.
Our installations carry a workmanship warranty in addition to the manufacturer warranty on the equipment. Both depend on the system being installed to specification and commissioned properly, which is why we document it. We explain exactly what is covered before handover rather than leaving it in a folder.
