Building History

Bel Air Hall is named after the town of Bel Air – the county seat of Harford County, Maryland. Originally known as "Scott's Old Fields" Bel Air was part of a land grant issued to Daniel Scott in 1731. In March 1782 "Belle Aire" was designated the county seat of Harford County. At the turn of the twentieth century the "e" was dropped and the second "l" and its companion "e" gave way a few years later.

Building Services

Housekeeping Service Hours:

Weekdays: Services run from Monday to Friday, starting at 7:30 a.m. and ending by mid-afternoon. We minimize disruption to residents' routines.
Weekends: Reduced service with restrooms and lounges cleaned once on Saturdays. No regular services on Sundays, which is a day off for our staff.
Emergency Services: Our team remains on call at all times. Available 24/7 through our Service Center at 301-314-9675.

Trash Removal

Residents are required to take their trash to the dumpsters outside their buildings. Housekeeping handles trash and recycling removal from lobbies, lounges, laundry rooms, and common bathrooms twice a day, ensuring clean and welcoming common areas.

HVAC System

Air Conditioned Building with HVAC System Capable of Switching Between Heating and Cooling

Bel Air Hall’s HVAC system is automated, adjusting between heating and cooling based on both outdoor and indoor temperatures. As a result, your room may be heated at night if it’s cold enough and cooled during the day if it’s warm enough. Each unit features an air handler for air circulation. While residents cannot adjust the temperature or fan speed, Residential Facilities maintenance staff monitor supply temperatures daily to ensure optimal comfort.
