Allentown housing and HVAC

Allentown has hot, humid summers with highs in the mid-80s and cold, snowy winters with regular freezes and nor'easters. Ice storms occasionally cause long outages.
Permits and seasonal timing in Allentown
The City of Allentown Bureau of Building Standards and Safety issues permits, and Pennsylvania requires home improvement contractors to register with the Attorney General's office. Book boiler service in September.
Rowhouse boilers
Older boilers in rowhouses need yearly service, chimney venting checks and attention to leaks, expansion tanks and relief valves.
Oil heat conversions
Many homes still burn oil and are switching to gas or heat pumps when burners or tanks need major work.
Cooling without ducts
Ductless mini-splits are the most practical way to add efficient cooling to rowhouses with radiator heat.
