PSB Air was engaged by JV Projects Group to design and install the HVAC system for the Norfolk Avalon Apartments, a boutique 12-unit residential development at Avalon Beach. The brief required a system that could deliver reliable year-round comfort while supporting energy efficiency, durability, and ease of use for residents.
Given the coastal location, the system also needed to withstand exposure to salt-laden air and changing weather conditions, while integrating cleanly into the building’s modern architectural design.
Delivering HVAC services in a coastal environment introduces a distinct set of challenges. At Norfolk Avalon Apartments, the system needed to balance performance with longevity, ensuring components would not degrade prematurely due to corrosion.
The development also required a low-maintenance solution that would keep operating costs down for residents, while providing intuitive climate control across all apartments. All systems had to be carefully integrated to suit the apartment layouts and finishes without compromising airflow or visual appeal.
PSB Air delivered a tailored residential HVAC solution designed specifically for the site conditions and project requirements.
Air-cooled VRF systems were selected to provide flexible, zoned temperature control across individual apartments, allowing residents to manage comfort independently and efficiently. Coastal-grade components were used throughout the installation to protect against corrosion and extend system lifespan.
Mechanical ventilation systems were incorporated to support indoor air quality, while all units were positioned and coordinated to align with the building’s design and construction program.
The completed HVAC system provides consistent indoor comfort across all apartments while keeping energy consumption low. Residents benefit from simple, responsive climate control, minimal ongoing maintenance, and systems designed to perform reliably in a coastal setting.
From a development perspective, the installation supports the long-term durability of the building services while maintaining the clean, modern aesthetic of the apartments.

This project highlights PSB Air’s ability to deliver residential HVAC systems that respond to environmental conditions without adding unnecessary complexity. By selecting the right equipment and materials for the location, the team ensured performance, durability, and ease of use were all addressed from the outset.
For developers working in coastal areas, projects like Norfolk Avalon Apartments demonstrate how early planning and practical system design can protect long-term asset value.
If you are planning a residential development and need HVAC systems designed to suit both location and lifestyle, PSB Air can support your project from design through to installation.

The project uses air-cooled VRF systems combined with mechanical ventilation to deliver efficient, zoned climate control across all apartments.
VRF systems allow individual temperature control, operate efficiently at part load, and adapt well to multi-unit layouts with varying comfort needs.
Corrosion-resistant, coastal-grade components were selected to protect the system from salt exposure and extend its operational lifespan.
Yes. The VRF system allows residents to control their own apartment temperatures independently.
Mechanical ventilation supports fresh air circulation and helps maintain indoor air quality across all living spaces.
Yes. VRF systems are widely used in residential air conditioning Sydney projects because they provide efficient zoned control, quiet operation, and lower running costs, making them well suited to modern apartment living.
