National City: Central San Diego has older 1950s-80s housing stock where original HVAC systems are now well past service life. National City homes typically have ductwork in vented attics and single-stage systems that run inefficiently against our coastal marine layer. Heat-load calcs and sealed-duct retrofits are the most common upgrades here.
