HVAC in Westlake, LA

Westlake at a glance

Westlake is an industrial city of 4,781 people (2020 census) on the west bank of the Calcasieu River, connected to Lake Charles by the Interstate 10 bridge. It was incorporated in 1945 and covers about 3.7 square miles.

What that means for your HVAC

With many chemical plants and refineries around the city, outdoor units here face more airborne dust and corrosive particles than most. Rinse the outdoor coil gently a few times a year and ask the technician to check for corrosion; see HVAC maintenance.

Vacant homes

The census found 12.2% of Westlake's housing units vacant in 2020. An empty house with the AC off in summer grows mold quickly. If you own a vacant or rental property, keep the system running at a moderate setting or use a dehumidifier; see humidity control.

The river and the bridge

Westlake sits just north of where the Calcasieu River enters the water body of Lake Charles, with Moss Bluff to the northeast and Sulphur to the west past the small community of Mossville. The river, about 200 miles long, takes its name through French from the Atakapa words for 'Crying Eagle', the name of a local leader. Riverside homes see the area's heaviest humidity; if rooms feel clammy even when cool, read humidity in Lake Charles homes.
