Ridenour and Ellison Lakes sit on the south side of town near the historic Ridenour estate, about 10 minutes from the shop. It is a straight run down toward the Barrett Pkwy side, and one we make regularly for these newer subdivisions.
Ridenour and Ellison Lakes are among Kennesaw's newer subdivisions, built on the south side of town around 2003 to 2005 near the historic Ridenour estate and its park. They brought a wave of 2000s construction to the area, with larger, well-appointed homes and neighborhood amenities.
Because these homes are newer, the HVAC story here is different from the aging tracts across town. The original systems are just now reaching the age where the first major repairs and replacements begin, which puts these neighborhoods at the front edge of their first replacement cycle.
Ridenour & Ellison Lakes Homes and Their HVAC
Built around 2003 to 2005, the homes in Ridenour and Ellison Lakes have systems now hitting the 20-year mark. For a well-maintained unit that means the first serious repair-or-replace decisions, while a neglected one may already be failing. These are not worn-out old tracts; they are quality 2000s homes whose original equipment is simply reaching the natural end of a first service life.
The homes here tend toward larger two-story plans, so we see the familiar upstairs-comfort questions along with first-cycle equipment aging. When a system does need replacing, we take advantage of the newer, tighter construction to right-size a high-efficiency SEER2 unit and often add zoning or a smart thermostat, since these homes are well suited to getting the most out of modern controls.
We Know the Ridenour & Ellison Lakes Streets
We know the south-side streets of Ridenour and Ellison Lakes and the newer 2000s homes that fill them. These subdivisions are at a different stage than the older parts of Kennesaw, and we tailor our approach to first-cycle systems that are aging rather than long-obsolete equipment.
This summer we were called to a Ridenour home built in 2004 whose original AC had developed a refrigerant leak at the coil after 20 years. The system was otherwise in decent shape, so we walked the owner through repairing the leak versus stepping up to a high-efficiency replacement while the ductwork was accessible. They chose an efficient new SEER2 system with zoning for the two-story layout, and we handled it as a permitted install.
