Harrison homes at a glance

The kind of buildings in a town shapes the heating and cooling work it needs. Here is what the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey 2020–2024 (via Census Reporter) shows for Harrison:

Households heating with fuel oil	1%

What that means for heating and cooling

A mix of old and new. The median home in Harrison was built around 1990, much newer than nearby towns, because of recent apartment construction. Only 28% of homes predate 1960. Newer buildings tend to use packaged or split systems, heat pumps and through-wall units, while older blocks still have boilers.
Gas and electric heat. About 54% of households heat with utility gas and 37% with electricity, a high electric share for the area. Electric heat here usually means baseboard or heat pumps in apartments, where an efficient heat pump can cut running costs.
Lots of multi-family buildings. 89% of homes are in buildings with two or more units (37% in two- to four-unit buildings). Units often have their own equipment, so access, shared venting and coordinating with owners are part of the job.
Most households rent. About 79% of households rent and 21% own. We work with landlords and property managers as well as tenants who need to get a problem in front of the owner.
