Boston sits at the convergence of continental and maritime air masses. Summer brings tropical humidity from the Atlantic. Winter delivers arctic air from Canada. Your HVAC system manages 90-degree temperature differentials between January and July, cycling constantly through these extremes. Coastal salt air accelerates corrosion on outdoor units. Condensing coils develop pinhole leaks faster than inland installations. These environmental factors make seasonal HVAC check ups more critical here than in stable climates. Systems that might last 20 years in temperate regions fail at 15 years in Boston without proper maintenance addressing salt corrosion and thermal stress.
Massachusetts energy codes rank among the nation's strictest. Replacement equipment must meet high SEER ratings and AFUE standards.
