Heating and Air Conditioning in Brooklyn, Ohio

Most homes in Brooklyn were built between 1940 and 1970, the years the city grew from about 1,100 residents to more than 13,000. Census Bureau survey data puts about 70 percent of today's housing units in that window and only about 4 percent before 1940. More than two in three homes are detached single family houses, about one in five is in a building of five or more apartments, and more than three in four occupied homes heat with natural gas. Where an older home heats with a boiler and radiators, a ductless system can add cooling while the boiler stays in place for heat.

Interstate 480 cuts straight through Brooklyn, and homes along that corridor deal with road grit and exhaust that loads up filters faster than average. Landlords here also face a split incentive, so an aging furnace in a rental often stays in until it quits. ENERGY STAR says to check the filter every month and change it whenever it looks dirty, with three months as the longest gap between changes.
