Local Specialist · City of Kwinana
Whirlybird Installation in Medina, Perth
Dave works right across Medina and the wider City of Kwinana. The suburb sits about 32km south of the Perth CBD — close enough that travel is always included in the quoted price, same as everywhere else in the metro.
At about 4km from the coast, Medina gets a reliable Fremantle Doctor through summer — slightly softened by the run inland, but more than enough to keep turbines turning through the hottest part of the day.
Housing through Medina is dominated by post-war brick and tile. Low-pitched roofs from this era hold less air than you would think, and that works against you — a small cavity reaches a high temperature quickly and passes it on to the ceiling below with very little delay.
Eave overhangs from the fifties are modest, so intake is often limited before you even consider whether anything has been boxed in since. Worth checking properly rather than assuming.
Most homes in Medina need 3 whirlybirds, which comes to $950 supplied and installed. The shallow cavity on a post-war roof heats right through in an afternoon.
- No call-out fee anywhere in Medina
- Fixed price agreed before the job is booked
- Dave on the roof — no subcontracted crews
- Fully insured, and every roof left swept clean
Near-coastal — reliable sea breeze
What Works Best on a Medina Roof
The default recommendation in Medina is wind-driven, and it is a genuine recommendation rather than an upsell avoided — the breeze here is reliable enough that turbines are not a compromise.
Dave steers people toward solar in two situations locally: large ceiling areas where the turbine count gets silly, and roofs that are boxed in by surrounding two-storey homes so the wind never really reaches them. Neither is the majority case in Medina.
Whatever goes on, the unit quality matters more than most people expect. Salt still reaches this far inland in reduced quantities, and it finds cheap bearings eventually.

Whirlybird Installation Medina — Common Questions
From $350 for a single unit supplied and installed. Two units are $650, three are $950, and each unit after that adds $300. Travel to Medina 6167 is included and there is no call-out fee.
Two to three units suits most homes of this size and vintage. The general rule is one 300mm unit per 50–60m² of ceiling area, adjusted for pitch and how much intake venting the eaves provide. Dave works out the exact number from your details before quoting.
The default recommendation in Medina is wind-driven, and it is a genuine recommendation rather than an upsell avoided — the breeze here is reliable enough that turbines are not a compromise.
Salt reaches Medina, but it is a milder problem than it is right on the beach. Expect a decent unit to last 12–15 years, and a cheap one noticeably less.
Rarely an issue in Medina. The sea breeze is dependable enough through summer that turbines are turning most afternoons. On a still morning output drops off, but the hottest part of the day is generally covered.
Yes — replacements start from $350 per unit. That covers removing the old roof vent, fitting new flashing, installing the new unit and taking the old one away. Most swaps reuse the existing roof penetration, so they take about 30–45 minutes each.
