Local homes

Detroit housing and HVAC

Many homes are older, with basements, gas furnaces or boilers. Central AC is common in some neighborhoods but not universal. Detroit's bungalows, Tudors and brick colonials were mostly built between the 1910s and 1950s, and many have been through several furnace replacements without updates to ductwork or venting. When a new high-efficiency furnace goes in, an orphaned water heater on the old chimney may need a liner or new venting. Outdoor condensers are often tucked beside driveways or in narrow side yards, which affects airflow and service access.

Cold winters with lake-effect snow, warm summers.
