Newark: the east anchor, a river city of old houses
Newark is the Licking County seat at the metro's east edge, a river city on the Licking River along the SR-16 corridor, with a substantial downtown, neighborhoods of 1800s and early-1900s housing in every direction, and postwar and growth-era subdivisions filling the ground toward Columbus. It is the east anchor of the Cap City map, and most Newark calls are seen the same day.
Industrial-era housing is the local story: solid, dense neighborhoods of homes built close and built well, many of them carrying their second or third heating system in rooms designed for the first. The ductwork in those houses was often fitted to gravity heat, which wanted big slow ducts and patience, and modern forced air moving through it has opinions that show up as noise, uneven rooms, and temperature splits that mislead anyone who does not know the house's first system was gravity.

That makes Newark the map's best argument for measuring instead of assuming. The readings, taken room by room and at the unit, sort the house's history from the equipment's health. Tell Eddie the age of the house and anything you know about its earlier systems. In Newark, the biography is diagnostic.
Guidance for Newark: ask whether your ductwork predates forced air. A yes recasts half the numbers you will hear, in your favor: the house gets explained before the equipment gets blamed.
