Local homes
New Orleans housing and HVAC
Raised homes often have ductwork under the floor or in attics; shotgun houses with tall ceilings can be hard to cool evenly. Mini-splits are common in historic homes. New Orleans shotgun houses and Creole cottages have long, narrow layouts and tall ceilings, which complicate duct design. Raised homes often have ducts under the floor, while slab homes in newer areas use attic ducts. Ductless systems are popular in historic homes to avoid altering interiors.
Hot, humid summers, mild winters, heavy rainfall and hurricane risk.
Permits and seasonal timing in New Orleans
The City of New Orleans Department of Safety and Permits issues mechanical permits, and the Historic District Landmarks Commission may review visible exterior equipment in historic districts. Schedule maintenance before hurricane season and inspect equipment after any flooding.
