Clifton, NJ
Air Conditioning in Clifton: what's different
Air Conditioning work in Clifton follows the local climate. Mixed climates get real summers and real winters, so the AC has a full season of work and then sits idle. Spring start-up problems such as weak capacitors, low charge and clogged drains are common.
Most homes have gas furnaces or boilers in basements, with central AC in some updated homes. Two-family homes often have separate systems. Allwood and Richfield have 1940s to 1960s capes and colonials with basement furnaces and central air added later, while Botany Village has older two-family homes near the river. Athenia and Albion homes near Route 3 and the Garden State Parkway are often 1950s ranches with small attic ducts.
The air conditioning services Clifton homeowners ask for most are AC Repair. Warm air, no cooling, short cycling, noises and breaker trips.
The City of Clifton Building Department issues permits, and New Jersey licenses master HVACR contractors.
