Clermont Housing Stock
Half the homes in Clermont were built before 2005 (Census ACS median), so the typical house is about 21 years old. Newer homes are built tighter, so oversized equipment is a common problem. It short-cycles, wastes energy and leaves rooms clammy. About 12,000 households here own their home, 68.4% of the occupied total. Homes here have a median value of $368,600 and households a median income of $79,789. Those two numbers drive the labor adjustment in our estimate.
Between 2020 and 2025, NOAA's Storm Events Database logged 7 hail days and 12 days with damaging thunderstorm winds in Lake County. The largest hail reported was 2.75 inches across. Storms here are more likely to cause power surges than coil damage, so a surge protector on the outdoor unit is worth the small cost. Lake County also had 3 tornado days in that period. In Clermont, 24.7% of residents are 65 or older. For older adults, a house with no heat in January or no AC during a heat wave is a medical risk. Mention it when you call, since many companies put those calls first.
