Can an HOA Restrict Air Conditioners?
The short answer to this question: Yes, homeowner’s associations (HOA) can restrict the type of air conditioner you are allowed to install. These agreements can even outline how frequently the HVAC unit must be maintenance or serviced. To know for sure whether your HOA agreement restricts air conditioners, you should refer to the agreement. Rooter Hero Plumbing & Air is happy to help you determine permissible air conditioner types for your property and take care of the installation, replacement, or repair.
What are HOA and HOA agreements?
Many residential sites across the United States establish rules, regulations, and responsibilities of homeowners within the community. The agreement is typically established by a homeowner's association (HOA), which is made up of residents of the community who have come together to manage and maintain the shared amenities and common areas of the community.
The HOA agreement typically includes provisions for a wide range of issues from membership and voting rights to architectural guidelines and use restrictions. The agreement will also specify how the HOA will enforce its rules and regulations and what penalties homeowners might face for noncompliance.
In short, the HOA agreement is designed to protect property values and maintain a high standard of living for all residents in the community. It's important for homeowners to carefully review and understand the terms of the HOA agreement before purchasing a property in a community with an HOA.
Who is responsible?
HOA agreements typically have separate rules for private portions and shared, public portions of the community. These can get especially complicated when the dwelling is a townhome or condo. Who is responsible for paying for the AC repair? What if the issue is not isolated to your premises? These are tricky questions that you will have to refer to your HOA agreement to resolve.
