FAQ
I own an older home in the Port Washington Heights neighborhood near North Plandome Road. We have hot-water radiators and no central ductwork. What are our options for adding air conditioning, and do we need local historic approval for the outdoor compressor?
Because your home lacks existing ductwork, the best options are multi-zone ductless mini-split heat pumps or high-velocity mini-duct systems that avoid tearing down historic plaster walls. If your property falls within the Port Washington Heights Historic District, any exterior equipment, including outdoor condenser units or visible exterior line-set trunking, requires a Certificate of Appropriateness from the Town of North Hempstead Historic Landmarks Preservation Commission before installation begins.
