Heating & Cooling services in Ferndale
Ferndale's housing is mostly 1920s and 1930s bungalows and small colonials on narrow lots, built when the Woodward streetcar made the area an easy commute to Detroit. These are compact houses with full basements, and most now heat with a gas furnace that replaced a coal or gravity system long ago. The ducts from those conversions are often a mix of old and new runs, and upstairs bedrooms under the roof tend to be hot in summer and cool in winter. Many owners have finished attics or added rooms, which the original system was never sized for. Ductless mini-splits are a common fix for those spaces. Side yards are narrow, so placing an outdoor AC unit takes some planning. Older homes here may also have asbestos tape on old duct joints, which must be handled correctly.
