Heating and cooling in Maryland
Real summers and real winters. Most homes have central AC plus a gas furnace or heat pump, and both seasons bring peak demand.
Maryland licenses HVACR contractors through the State Board of Heating, Ventilation, Air-Conditioning, and Refrigeration Contractors. Counties and Baltimore City issue permits.
Baltimore's rowhouses often have boilers or older furnaces and tight spaces for ductwork, while suburban homes in Montgomery, Howard and Anne Arundel counties typically have heat pumps or gas furnaces with central AC. Summers are humid and winters moderately cold.
Ask contractors to show their Maryland HVACR license and confirm who pulls the permit.
Western Maryland's mountains are colder and snowier than Baltimore and the Chesapeake region, and the Eastern Shore is humid and exposed to coastal storms. Heat pumps are common in newer suburbs, while older city housing relies on boilers.
