Back yard walls to shield AC or spa equipment

Positively Palermo was asked by a possible buyer of a condo at Palermo Palm Springs about why some back yards have walls separating air conditioning and/or spa equipment, and some do not. The answer is because the walls were upgrades offered by the developer when they were building the community, to be built by D.W. Johnston Construction. On Penny Lane, the former developer in 2007 charged $620 extra for one wall to shield AC and spa equipment, and $725 for a slightly larger wall. But also on Penny Lane, they charged $1,600 for an inside wall and for changes to the concrete block wall to enlarge the yard for the equipment. Sometimes the walls also were included in "landscaping and pool packages." Miss Penny Lane says: She loved the days of construction and await for them to return.
