Ask a proA shared boiler often favors one flat. Zoning with a thermostat per unit evens it out.
Balancing dampers, duct sealing or a separate upstairs zone helps the second floor keep up.
When repairs pile up on an older furnace, replacement often costs less over a few years.
For two-flats, decide whether to keep a shared boiler with zoning or move to separate furnaces before a major replacement.
For Georgians, ask about the upstairs when replacing the AC. A bigger unit downstairs rarely fixes it on its own.
