Short answer
Audubon is the Uptown neighborhood around Audubon Park, Tulane and Loyola, filled with large historic homes. Upstairs rooms that run hot, tall ceilings and rental doubles near the universities shape the work here, so common calls are AC repair, zoning and small-duct systems that spare the plaster. We serve ZIP 70118, 24/7.
Tall ceilings, upper floors and plaster walls
Heat rises, and in a two or three-story house with tall ceilings it collects upstairs. A single system with one thermostat downstairs keeps the parlor cool while the bedrooms bake. Zoning answers that with dampers in the ducts and a thermostat on each floor, or the house gets a second system for the upper level. Which one makes sense depends on the ducts already in place and the room in the attic.
Many of these homes have plaster walls and ornate ceilings that nobody wants cut open for large ducts. Small-duct high-velocity systems run flexible tubing through closets and wall cavities and finish with small round outlets, and ductless mini-splits suit additions and converted attics. Near the universities, plenty of houses are split into rental units, where each unit needs its own dependable system and fast service when it fails.
