Bungalows and Georgians on tree-lined blocks

What Avalon Park Homes Tend to Need

Avalon Park is a small, quiet residential neighborhood on the Far South Side, known for its tree-lined streets of brick bungalows and Georgians and for the park that gives it its name.

Most homes date from the 1920s through the 1940s. Bungalows started with radiators and many converted to forced air; Georgians usually have forced air with central AC throughout.

Mature street trees shade much of the neighborhood, which keeps homes cooler in summer but also drops leaves and seeds into outdoor AC units.

With many long-time owners, the equipment in Avalon Park basements spans every age, from new high-efficiency furnaces to boilers that have run for decades.

Common Problems in Avalon Park Homes

What comes up in Avalon Park homes.

Ask a pro
01

AC coil packed with leaves and seeds

Outdoor units under mature trees clog quickly. A dirty coil makes the AC run hot, cool less and sometimes shut down on hot days.

↗
02

Back bedrooms cold in winter

Long, leaky ducts to the rear of a converted bungalow lose heat. Sealing and better return air help those rooms keep up.

↗
03

Old boiler with no service records

A boiler that has run for decades without records needs a full inspection: safety controls, relief valve, expansion tank and venting.

Keeping Avalon Park Homes Comfortable

Have the AC coil cleaned each spring and keep two feet of clearance around the outdoor unit. Under trees, a second cleaning in midsummer can help.

If you have an older boiler, a yearly service is the best way to keep it safe and find out how much life it has left.
