Mar Vista sleep audit pattern (90066)

Mar Vista projects center on retrofit work because most original 1940s-50s tract homes were built without central AC; the marine layer historically made it unnecessary. Climate change has made AC retrofits the dominant residential HVAC project in 90066. The Mar Vista Tract HPOZ protects Gregory Ain mid-century modern homes which require historic preservation review for any exterior HVAC component placement. North Westdale audits frequently find homes with rear ADU additions where the homeowner extended the floor plan but never extended the central system; ductless mini split for the ADU plus duct correction for the main house is a typical scope split.

Bed-coordinate-driven head placement and airflow direction

Sleep comfort is degrees, sound, airflow direction, fan speed staging, and cycling pattern. For Mar Vista bedrooms, the targets are: under 30 dBA at the bed (ASHRAE NC 25–30 sleeping room target), supply airflow parallel to the bed long axis (never across the pillow), low-fan-mode under 22 dBA on premium ductless heads (Mitsubishi MSZ-FS06NA at 19 dBA, Daikin Quaternity FTXG09HVJU at 19 dBA, Fujitsu Halcyon ASU9RLF1 at 21 dBA), and outdoor unit dBA under 50 dBA at full load when HOA acoustics matter.
