The median Pine Hills home dates to 1980, according to the Census ACS. That makes the typical house about 46 years old. A lot of these homes are on their second or third system by now. The ductwork is usually original, and leaky joints are common. Owners live in 56.3% of occupied homes, roughly 13,000 households. The median home value is $233,700, and median household income is $55,692. We use both figures to adjust labor and pricing for this page.
Between 2020 and 2025, NOAA's Storm Events Database logged 14 hail days and 21 days with damaging thunderstorm winds in Orange County. The largest hail reported was 1.75 inches across. Hail flattens the thin aluminum fins on condenser coils and cuts airflow. After a big storm, take a look at the outdoor unit; homeowners insurance often covers the damage. Orange County also had 3 tornado days in that period.
