Heating and cooling climate

Heating is the bigger load, but summers are warm enough that most homes rely on central air too, so both systems see real use every year.

According to the Census Bureau's American Community Survey, 71% of occupied homes in Englewood heat mainly with utility gas, 22% with electricity and 5% with fuel oil or kerosene.
