Hudson County is one of the most densely populated counties in the entire United States, with a mix of older rowhouses, mid-rise apartments, and modern condos. Many of these buildings still rely on R22 air conditioning. Here is what Hudson County homeowners need to know about replacement and rebates.

Hudson County homes present unique HVAC challenges. Many are rowhouses or attached units where outdoor condenser placement is limited. Older buildings in Jersey City, Bayonne, and Union City often have R22 window units or through-wall systems that are loud, inefficient, and impossible to recharge at a reasonable cost. Even single-family homes in North Bergen, Secaucus, and Kearny that have central R22 systems face the same ban — the refrigerant is unavailable at affordable prices and the systems cannot be maintained long-term.

Ductless Solutions for Hudson County Homes
Many Hudson County homes lack ductwork, which makes ductless mini-split heat pumps the ideal R22 replacement. Ductless systems require only a small hole in the wall for refrigerant lines — no major construction or ductwork installation needed. They are whisper-quiet compared to old R22 window units and provide both heating and cooling. PSE&G rebates apply to ductless systems just as they do to central heat pumps, with combined rebates available up to $16,000. Mechanical Enterprise has extensive experience installing ductless systems in Hudson County's tight spaces and historic homes. Call (862) 423-9396 for a free assessment.
