Lakeland homes and their cooling systems
Lakeland's housing is relatively new: the median home was built around 2000, according to Census estimates. Many systems in homes of that age have already been replaced once, while others are original equipment now more than two decades old.
Census figures count 4,904 households across about 18 square miles. In a two-story house, a single system can have a hard time cooling the upper floor, and some homes have a second system for it, so a complaint such as 'upstairs never cools down' may point to airflow or duct issues rather than a failed unit.
Equipment installed around 2000 was built before the 2010 cutoff for new R-22 systems, so some original Lakeland units may still use R-22. If a contractor finds a refrigerant leak on an older system, ask them to compare the leak repair with replacement before you decide.
A bit of Lakeland history
The city grew up around the lake now called Garner Lake, once home to the Lakeland Amusement Park with its own narrow-gauge railroad. The former Lakeland Factory Outlet Mall closed around 2011 and the site has been targeted for redevelopment.
Today Lakeland is mostly residential, between Bartlett and Arlington along I-40. Calls from ZIP 38002 are accepted; that ZIP also covers parts of Bartlett and Arlington, so mention your street address when you call.
