Lee's Summit homes and their heating and cooling
Two-story homes from the 1990s and 2000s commonly have a single system in the basement serving three floors, with long supply runs to upstairs bedrooms. Larger homes may have a second system in the attic. Reverse story-and-a-half homes put living space in finished walkout basements that run cool in summer.
Upstairs bedrooms that won't cool
One thermostat on the main floor and long duct runs leave upstairs rooms several degrees warmer. Zoning, duct balancing or a second system are the usual solutions.
Attic air handlers
Second systems in attics are hard to service and prone to condensate overflows onto ceilings. A float switch and a clean drain line prevent water damage.
End-of-life 2000s systems
Homes from the building boom of the late 1990s and early 2000s are now due for AC and furnace replacements, often at the same time.
