Lemmon Valley at a glance

What that means for your AC

Many Lemmon Valley homes sit on larger lots with open exposure to sun and wind. Outdoor units in full sun and wind need clear space and regular cleaning; see AC maintenance. On lots with horses or livestock, hay dust and bedding blow into outdoor coils and filters faster than in town, so plan on more frequent filter changes through the windy months.

Rural utilities

Some properties have propane or electric heat rather than natural gas, which affects the right choice of furnace or heat pump. Properties farther out along the valley floor can wait longer for a service visit in peak season, so a spring tune-up and a spare filter on the shelf make a summer breakdown less likely and quicker to fix.

Swan Lake

About 1.2 square miles of the valley is water, mostly the Swan Lake Nature Study Area, a small wetland that draws many bird species. Low ground near the wetland can stay damp after winter storms, and crawl spaces nearby may be wetter than in the drier parts of the valley. Damp crawl spaces add moisture and musty air to homes with ducts underneath, so check them each spring; see ductwork.
