Recommended unit for Hammond

High-SEER2 AC + gas furnace

Given Indiana’s mixed-humid (cold winters) climate and gas heating, high-seer2 ac + gas furnace is the sensible default for most Hammond homes. A pro can confirm the right size and system for your home with a load calculation.

What Hammond code requires

Installing or replacing an HVAC system in Hammond follows Indiana rules under the state mechanical code. Here’s what applies statewide:

  • Permit

    Mechanical permit pulled by your licensed HVAC contractor; covers equipment, refrigerant, and the electrical disconnect.

    Required
  • SEER2 minimum

    Federal North-region minimum for new split-system AC. Higher tiers cut bills and unlock rebates.

    13.4 SEER2 (North)
  • Load calculation

    Sizing by load calc — not rule of thumb — prevents an oversized unit that short-cycles and never dehumidifies.

    Required (Manual J)
  • Refrigerant
    R-454B / R-32 (R-410A phased down 2025+)
  • Good to know

    Indiana Residential Code (2018 IRC base) requires HVAC equipment to be sized per ACCA Manual J/S, and gas-furnace changeouts must bring flue/venting up to current Mechanical Code even on like-for-like swaps.
