Kent, WA
Air Conditioning in Kent: what's different
Air Conditioning work in Kent follows the local climate. Marine climates have mild summers, so many homes added cooling only recently, often with heat pumps or mini-splits. Heat waves bring sudden demand for AC service and installs.
A common Kent pattern: heat waves. Recent heat waves have driven demand for cooling. Another: damp winters. Ventilation and sealed ducts help prevent condensation and mold.
The air conditioning services Kent homeowners ask for most are AC Replacement & Installation. Correctly sized new systems, SEER2 ratings and refrigerant changes.
The City of Kent Permit Center issues mechanical permits, and Washington licenses HVAC contractors through the Department of Labor and Industries. Puget Sound Energy has offered rebates.
