Air conditioning by Geelong suburb
Cooling demand shifts across Geelong, so the size you need and what it costs to run differ by suburb. Each guide works its figures from that suburb's own climate record and electricity network.
Heating hours dominate
Like Melbourne, Geelong reverse-cycle works harder in winter than summer. Judge quotes on the heating efficiency numbers, that’s where the running cost lives.
Period homes near the bay
Weatherboard and brick cottages through central Geelong have tight roof cavities, well-placed splits room by room are usually the honest answer.
