Clifton housing and HVAC
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.
Clifton has hot, humid summers and cold winters with snow and nor'easters. Summer highs reach the upper 80s with humidity, winter lows regularly fall into the 20s, and Hurricane Ida in 2021 flooded many basements across Passaic County. Thunderstorms in summer can knock out power and bring sudden basement flooding along the Passaic River and local brooks.
