Older Robbinsdale Homes: What to Know
Robbinsdale's pre-1950 housing stock has specific installation characteristics common to pre-war construction:
- Chimney-vented old systems: Very common — upgrading to 96% AFUE requires exterior PVC penetrations ($200–$400)
- Small, tight utility spaces: 1920s–30s basements are often cramped. Allow additional time in quotes for difficult access.
- Older wiring: Some very old Robbinsdale homes have knob-and-tube or early panel systems that may need assessment before running furnace control wiring
