Local homes

Colorado Springs housing and HVAC

Gas furnaces are standard; older homes may lack AC. Newer homes on the north side often have central AC. Many homes on the north side were built from the 1980s onward and have gas furnaces sized for altitude, with central AC added more recently. Older homes near downtown and Old Colorado City may have no AC at all, making ductless heat pumps a popular way to add cooling. Homes on the west side near the foothills see stronger winds and heavier snow.

Cold winters, dry air, hail, and big temperature swings.
