Bungalows and raised ranches near Ford City

What West Lawn Homes Tend to Need

West Lawn sits on the Southwest Side near the Ford City shopping center, built on the site of a huge World War II aircraft engine plant. Midway Airport is just to the north.

Its residential blocks are lined with brick bungalows and Georgians from the 1920s through the 1950s and raised ranches built after the war.

Most homes heat with forced-air furnaces and have central air. Homes in the airport’s noise zones may have received sound insulation, sometimes including central air.

With most equipment now on its second or third generation, replacement timing and sizing are the common questions.

Ford City and the shopping along Cicero give West Lawn a busy edge, but the residential streets behind them are quiet, with homes that have been maintained and updated by the same owners for decades.

Common Problems in West Lawn Homes

What comes up in West Lawn homes.

Ask a pro
01

Raised ranch with uneven levels

Upper floors run warm and lower levels run cool in raised ranches. Balancing the dampers and adding a return on the lower level usually help.

↗
02

Furnace turning on and off every few minutes

An oversized furnace heats quickly and shuts off, over and over. A dirty filter or failing flame sensor can do the same. A technician can tell which.

↗
03

AC frozen on a hot day

Low airflow from a clogged filter or low refrigerant can freeze the coil. Turn the AC off to thaw, check the filter and call if it freezes again.

Before you replace anything

Replacing a Furnace or AC in West Lawn

Ask for a load calculation. Many original furnaces were oversized, and windows and insulation have changed since.

If both furnace and AC are aging, replace them together so they’re matched.
