Start here if you read nothing else: this page covers Vermilion Parish, Louisiana — 1,172 square miles, 3 listed communities, a centroid southwest of the Lafayette metro's centre. Its climate record, from LAFAYETTE RGNL AP, LA US, sets a humid pressure on its systems. TempReach USA publishes the homework and routes the call; an independent local HVAC technician serving the county does the work.
The station for this county's metro is LAFAYETTE RGNL AP, LA US, and its NOAA 1991-2020 normals are the source of every figure in this section. Precipitation averages 62.81 inches a year; the temperature record averages 69.4 degrees, built from 90.7 days at 90 or above and 11.3 nights at or below freezing; the workload totals 1,377 heating degree days and 3,007 cooling degree days. Vermilion Parish is read through that record throughout this page.
Read the climate record and the county's pressure names itself. Precipitation of 62.81 inches a year at LAFAYETTE RGNL AP, LA US, layered over 3,007 cooling degree days, means Vermilion Parish's heating and cooling is moisture management wearing a temperature costume. Homes across its 1,172 square miles ask their systems to dry the air as much as to cool it — and the systems that answer well are the ones sized, charged and drained with that double duty in mind.
The county's neighbours frame it as well: Acadia Parish, Lafayette Parish, St. Martin Parish are among the 3 counties on its neighbour list, and together they form the working ground around Vermilion Parish's own 1,172 square miles. A system near a shared border lives in both counties' weather at once, whichever page describes its home — the pages divide the map so the record can be read county by county, and the links between them keep the whole in view.
Routing in Vermilion Parish is written in five digits. The county's codes begin at 70510 and run to 70575, 6 in total, and between the first and the last sits the county's full spread of ground — 1,172 square miles from the metro-facing edge to the far side. A technician's week here is a tour of those codes, and the tour is also a tour of the county's building history, because each code's systems were largely fitted when that code's streets were built.
Position first: Vermilion Parish lies southwest of the Lafayette metro's centre, roughly 25 miles from the metro's centre as the map measures it, with Acadia Parish, Lafayette Parish, St. Martin Parish among the counties around it. Neighbourhood at county scale matters to heating and cooling because systems do not respect the border — the same subdivisions' building decades continue across it, the same cold snaps and heat waves examine both sides in the same night — while each county's page, this one included, keeps the local figures distinct.
The county's year divides by load. At one end, 90.7 days at 90 degrees or above pull the cooling season into its long peak; at the other, 11.3 nights at or below freezing do the same for heating; between them sit the shoulder weeks when neither plant runs hard. An average temperature of 69.4 degrees at LAFAYETTE RGNL AP, LA US is what those two ends average out to, and 62.81 inches of precipitation spread across the year decide how much of the cooling season is also a moisture season. Vermilion Parish's households plan around that division — service ahead of the taller peak, filters and checks in the shoulders — whether they name it or not.
Start the county at its named places: Abbeville, Kaplan, Lake Arthur head a list of 3 communities recorded in Vermilion Parish. The list matters to heating and cooling because communities concentrate the housing — a street of homes built in one decade produces one kind of service diary, the next community's different decade produces another — and because the roads between the named places are part of the working day here. The county page's climate record is shared; the ground it lands on is divided among these names.
Age is the county's second climate. The Lafayette metro's median home was built in 1987, and 40.1% of its homes predate 1980 — in Vermilion Parish, that share is the older districts and the long-settled communities, where ductwork from an earlier equipment era still serves replacement systems. The newer share, 32.9% built since 2000, concentrates in the county's growth edges. The service diary divides along that line: deep equipment-and-duct conversations at the old end, first-replacement and control conversations at the new one.
Coverage, for Vermilion Parish, is a set of overlapping maps. The land map is 1,172 square miles. The address map is 6 ZIP codes and 3 listed communities. The service map is the Lafayette metro, whose coverage the county sits inside — southwest of the Lafayette metro's centre, roughly 25 miles from its centre. The weather map is one station's record, kept at LAFAYETTE RGNL AP, LA US. A home in this county lives on all four maps at once, and its heating and cooling needs are set by the combination.
City pages carry the metro-wide homework — housing eras, the problem ranking, services in depth. This county sits inside their coverage.

TempReach USA is not an HVAC company. We employ no heating or cooling technicians, we run no service trucks, and we do not carry out HVAC work of any kind. This website and its call center exist for one purpose: to connect homeowners with independent local heating and cooling professionals who serve their area. When you call the number on this site, your call is routed to such a professional. From that point, everything about the job belongs to that professional and to you: the assessment, the work itself, the scheduling, what you are charged, and the terms of any agreement you reach. The professional who takes your job is solely responsible for it. The technician who arrives at your home runs their own business; they are not an employee, agent or subcontractor of TempReach USA. Our part is the information on these pages — assembled from Census Bureau housing data and NOAA climate records for each metro — and the routing of your call. We state this plainly on purpose: you should know exactly who you are hiring before anyone picks up a wrench or a gauge.
