Alice Springs averages 175 days a year at 30 degrees or above and 10 hours of sunshine a day in summer. Roof and ceiling insulation and shading do more for comfort and running cost here than upsizing the air conditioner.

The Top End cyclone season runs from November to May. The NT Government advises a visual inspection of your home every year, looking in the roof space for corrosion of metal roof coverings, batten straps, fixing bolts, fixing plates, screws and nails, and tightening tie-down bolts loosened by weathering.

The Northern Territory Government defines cyclonic wind region C as everywhere within 50 km of the coastline, and Secure NT says cyclones usually affect coastal areas up to 50 km inland. Darwin and Palmerston sit inside that band, Alice Springs does not.

Alice Springs is far outside the 50 km coastal band that the NT Government defines as cyclonic wind region C, so the cyclone rated fixings, tie-downs and debris ratings that drive Darwin build costs do not apply here. Do not let a quote carry Darwin cyclone pricing into Alice Springs.
