Heating and cooling climate
NOAA's 1991–2020 climate normals for the TETERBORO AP, NJ station show about 4,735 heating degree days and 1,255 cooling degree days in a typical year, with about 89 nights at or below freezing and 29 days reaching 90°F or more. 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.
How homes in Lodi are heated
According to the Census Bureau's American Community Survey, 70% of occupied homes in Lodi heat mainly with utility gas, 20% with electricity, 5% with fuel oil or kerosene and 4% with propane (bottled or tank gas). Gas-fired furnaces and boilers are the most common setup, which means igniters, flame sensors, gas valves and venting come up often on heating calls.

The median year built for housing in Lodi is 1958, and about 83% of its 10,108 housing units were built before 1980.
