Common Problems in Jefferson Park Homes
The Jefferson Park bungalow, room by room.
Ask a pro↗
Attic too hot to sleep in
Attics under a bungalow roof gain heat all day. A ductless head sized for the space cools it without changing anything downstairs.
Boiler banging on startup
On hot-water systems, banging at startup can come from air in the pipes or expansion as cold pipes heat. Bleeding the system and checking pressure usually quiets it.
Before you replace anything
Upgrading a Jefferson Park Bungalow
Decide what you want to fix first. If the attic is the problem, a ductless system there is often the most noticeable improvement for the money.
If you’re converting from radiators to forced air, plan the ducts for cooling as well as heat, and make sure the return air is large enough for both.
