New South Wales
Do you install air conditioning in the Tweed and Northern Rivers?
Yes. Our service area crosses the border and runs south to Lennox Head, covering Tweed Shire, Byron Shire and Ballina Shire. The same in-house team that works on the Gold Coast does every New South Wales job, and we hold a New South Wales electrical licence (357593C) for the electrical side of each install.
The region is a mix. Tweed Heads and Banora Point are a short drive from our Burleigh Heads workshop and largely suburban. Kingscliff, Pottsville, Byron Bay, Ballina and Lennox Head are coastal towns where salt air is the main enemy of outdoor units. Murwillumbah sits inland in the Tweed Valley, with older timber homes and warmer, stiller summer days.
Across all of it, humidity is high for much of summer. A well-sized inverter system that runs steadily at low speed does a better job of drying the air than an oversized one that cycles on and off.

Which Northern Rivers towns have their own page?
Each town below has its own guide covering local housing, salt exposure, roof spaces and the drive from our workshop. If your town is between two of them, you are almost certainly inside our area, so call and ask.
Town by town
How do the Tweed and Northern Rivers towns differ for air conditioning?
The coastal towns share salt air and humidity; the inland towns get more heat and less breeze. Housing ranges from older beach cottages to new estates and rural homes on acreage, so the right system changes from town to town and from house to house.
- Tweed Heads and Banora Point: river and ocean air near the border, with hillside family homes further south.
- Kingscliff and Pottsville: coastal villages with a mix of older homes and newer estates close to the beach.
- Murwillumbah: inland in the Tweed Valley, with older timber homes, warmer summer days and cooler winter nights.
- Byron Bay: beach houses, holiday homes and rural properties in the hinterland behind the town.
- Ballina and Lennox Head: the southern end of our area, at the mouth of the Richmond River and along the coast to the north of it.
Coastal homes
How do you protect an air conditioner on the New South Wales coast?
By placing the outdoor unit out of direct salt spray where the block allows, keeping it clear of garden beds and sprinklers, and treating it with a protective coating. Regular servicing then catches corrosion early, before it reaches the coil or the electrical parts.
Our corrosion protection treatment adds a protective coating to the outdoor unit. Rinsing the outdoor coil with fresh water every few months helps too. For homes a street or two back from the beach, a yearly service is usually enough to keep on top of it.
Every install comes with our 10-year workmanship guarantee and 10-year duct and pipework warranty, plus 5 years parts and labour on the units. See our warranty page for the full terms.
Good questions
Frequently asked questions
Can a Queensland company install air conditioning in New South Wales?
Yes, as long as the work is done under the right licences. We hold a New South Wales electrical licence (357593C) as well as our Queensland licences, and our ARCtick refrigerant handling authorisation (AU064493) is national.
Does daylight saving affect my booking?
It can. New South Wales uses daylight saving and Queensland does not, so from October to April the Tweed is an hour ahead of the Gold Coast. When you book, check whether the arrival time is in Queensland or New South Wales time.
How far south do you go?
Lennox Head is the southern end of our regular service area. For an address further south or out past Murwillumbah, call 1300 101 100 and we will tell you whether we can take the job.

Absolutely fantastic experience with Frost Solutions! I recently had a ducted air-conditioning system installed and honestly, from the very first conversation through to the finished installation, the whole process was seamless. ... The installation itself was done to a really high standard, the team worked efficiently and left everything clean and tidy. ... Great people, great communication, great workmanship and a great result.

Couldn't recommend Frost Solutions highly enough. We recently had them install a 16kW Daikin ducted system with 8 outlets, 6 independent zones, AirTouch 5, multiple upgrades and a 5 year service plan. ... Another big positive is that Frost Solutions have their own electrical team as part of the installation. ... the entire experience was seamless.

Frost Solutions installed ducted air conditioning in my home today and I couldn't be happier. The team were professional, friendly, punctual, and down to earth. ... left the house spotless ... I also really appreciated the follow-up call from the office later in the day to check I was completely satisfied ... They're a local business with local staff, and the value was extremely competitive for the quality of service and workmanship provided.

Thanks guys For installing my Panasonic 18 kilowatt Ducted air conditioning today. The guys turned up on time and were very polite. They worked hard all day, did a great job and left the house neat and tidy. Also they were $2000 cheaper than the others. :)

A massive thanks to Frost Solutions. We got a 16kw ducted system put in with 7 zones and 9 outlets. Tyrone and the team were super friendly and very professional doing an awesome job, even helping me to keep maximum space in our roof so I could do an attic room. They also decommissioned and removed 2 of our old split systems. Could not recommend them more highly.
