Local homes
Hartford housing and HVAC
Most older homes heat with gas or oil boilers and radiators, often one system per unit in multi-family buildings. Central air is uncommon in older homes, so window units and ductless mini-splits are the usual cooling solutions.
Hartford has warm, humid summers with highs in the 80s and cold, snowy winters. The Connecticut River valley can trap heat in summer, and nor'easters bring heavy snow and ice.
Permits and seasonal timing in Hartford
The City of Hartford's Licenses and Inspections Division issues mechanical permits, and Connecticut licenses heating, cooling and sheet metal contractors through the Department of Consumer Protection.
Oil-fired boilers
Many homes still burn heating oil, which requires annual burner cleaning, nozzle and filter changes and tank inspections.
Multi-family heating
Triple-deckers often have three separate systems sharing a chimney, so flue and carbon monoxide checks matter.
Adding cooling
Ductless mini-splits and high-velocity systems let older homes add cooling without large ducts.
