Climate zones across Perth
The National Construction Code sorts Australia into eight climate zones and uses them to set energy-efficiency requirements for buildings. This is where the Perth suburbs we checked fall, using the Australian Building Codes Board's published zone data.
Zone 5, warm temperate
Perth CBD, Fremantle, Joondalup, Rockingham, Armadale, Midland, Kalamunda, Ellenbrook, Baldivis, Cottesloe, Gosnells, Mundaring
A zone is a building-code classification, not a weather forecast, and boundaries can run through a suburb. Check your own address on the ABCB climate map (opens in a new tab). Looking for Western Australia more broadly? See the Western Australia page.
Licensing
The refrigerant handling licence from the Australian Refrigeration Council (ARCtick) is the one national licence requirement for refrigeration and air conditioning work. The electrical side of an installation is licensed by each state or territory. In Western Australia, Building and Energy is the government agency that oversees the electrical, gas, painting, plumbing and building services industries.
Electricity and running costs
Energy Made Easy lists New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania and the ACT, so it does not cover Western Australia. For running costs, use the usage rate printed on your own bill.

- What climate zone is Perth in?
- Perth is in National Construction Code climate zone 5 (warm temperate). Every Perth-area suburb we checked against the Australian Building Codes Board data, including Perth CBD, Fremantle, Joondalup, Rockingham and Armadale, falls in that zone. Boundaries can sit near the edge of a metropolitan area, so check your own address.
- How do I check the climate zone for my Perth address?
- Search your address, suburb or postcode on the Australian Building Codes Board's climate map. It shows which of the eight National Construction Code climate zones the location is in.
- Why does my climate zone matter when I compare aircon quotes in Perth?
- The National Construction Code uses climate zones to set energy-efficiency requirements for buildings. It is one input into choosing and sizing a system, alongside your insulation, windows, the direction your rooms face and how you use the space. Ask each installer how they sized the system for your home.

- You can request free, no-obligation quotes for a property in Perth. Availability depends on your location and project, and someone from AC Wise will confirm the details with you.
