Before you hire for heating and cooling work in Serena
LaSalle County is in IECC climate zone 5A, a cool, humid climate, on the U.S. Department of Energy's county map. Heating carries most of the load here. If you are considering a heat pump, ask whether the model is rated for cold climates and how backup heat works. In a humid climate, ask how the system will control indoor humidity, not just temperature. Whatever the climate, ask for a room-by-room load calculation (ACCA Manual J) instead of matching the size of the old unit.
About 100% of occupied homes in Serena heat with utility gas and 0% with electricity. Many replacement quotes will involve a gas furnace or boiler; if you are thinking about switching to an electric heat pump, ask whether your electrical panel needs an upgrade.
Only about 21% of occupied homes in Serena are lived in by their owners, so many residents rent. Renters should check with the property owner or manager before hiring anyone for heating and cooling work.
Permits and licenses in Serena
