Comfort in Rochester: what local conditions demand
Lake Ontario lake-effect snow and long heating seasons, with summers mild enough that many homes cool with window units alone.
New York City's pre-war walk-ups and tenements still run on steam and hot-water radiators, while the suburbs wrestle with oil-to-gas conversions and aging furnaces. Upstate, lake-effect winters from Buffalo to Syracuse deliver some of the heaviest heating loads in the country, and summer humidity in the Hudson Valley keeps air conditioning busy too. A contractor who works the Rochester area every week knows which systems handle local conditions best — ask what they recommend for your street, not just your state.
