Short answer
Kenner homes are mostly from the 1970s and 1980s, with attic air handlers and ducts and a mix of central AC and heat pumps. Common calls are refrigerant leaks and compressor failures on older systems, heat pumps struggling in cold snaps, and leaky attic ducts. We cover Kenner ZIPs 70062 and 70065, and the line is answered 24/7.
1970s and 1980s homes, and the occasional deep freeze
Most Kenner homes were built from 1970 to 1979, followed by the 1980s. Older outdoor units still turn up on those streets, and refrigerant leaks and worn compressors are common calls. Attic ducts from those decades also tend to leak at the joints and sweat where the insulation has slipped, which shows up as rooms that never cool and higher bills.
The official weather records for New Orleans come from the airport in Kenner, and on January 21, 2025 they showed eight inches of snow and lows in the teens and 20s. Heat pumps that had coasted through mild winters iced over or fell back on strip heat that night. A fall check of the defrost board, sensor and backup heat keeps the next cold snap from catching you out.
