I have used FL-AIR Heating & Cooling to service my a/c unit for years and, when it came time to replace the unit, there was no other company that I considered based on my previous experience dealing with this company. From the owner down to every technician I’ve dealt with, everyone has been incredibly professional and knowledgeable. What separates this company is their authenticity when it comes to providing a service in such a saturated market. I recommend this company to anyone who needs HVAC service. Kudos to Mark and his incredible team!

I used FL-Air to repair an aging HVAC and then to replace it altogether. Nothing but professionalism from start to finish. They were timely, responsive, and willing to answer any questions I had. Big thanks to Gage and team for their quality work, would recommend without hesitation.

Great job by Bobby and Sal on a complete AC install. A very professional job. These two didn't take any shortcuts. They do the job right regardless of the time or effort it takes. Mark L. runs a great company. A person you can totally trust. I’ve been with Mark over 4 years doing my AC work and with this old house it has been a lot. Glad Mark is now on his own, building a great company. It is extremely difficult to find people in this business you can trust. Before moving to FL, I oversaw an HVAC energy company. So, I can recognize quality performance when I see it. It took me 3 tries here before I found Mark. FL Air is great. You can trust and count on them. That says it all for me!

Very professional and delivered as promised. Giving 4 not 5 stars only because after the job was completed our condenser was still making a noise even though the system was turned off but they were thorough professionals as soon as we called back they had someone come out troubleshoot and address the issue! Overall great job.

My antiquated HVAC system is dying. I called them on Sunday evening and Coral called me first thing Monday morning. Tony was at my home by 11:00 AM. After a thorough and free inspection, Tony confirmed that my 40 year old unit was beyond repair and offered me four quality options for possible replacement. I hope to have my new unit installed this week. FL-Air Heating & Cooling came highly recommended and they didn't disappoint. My new HVAC system was installed today, two days after I had my inspection and received my quote. Aaron and Dustin were professional, friendly, informative, and efficient and timely. FL - AIR has an all star team of employees. In the future, I will use them for all of my heating and cooling work.

I bought this house about a year ago and realized that I needed to find a long-term partner to maintain and/or repair and replace if needed. I still have the old address of the partner used by the previous owner, but after researching, I was fortunate to find out that FL-Air Heating & Cooling is highly appreciated by users and especially they are also a HVAC partner of my neighbor. I decided to contact and ask for a quote for scheduled maintenance twice a year for 2 HVAC systems. Reasonable price, professional way of working and I decided to work with them. Fortunately, their technician arrived on time and worked very professionally with extensive knowledge. Especially you can ask any question and they are very happy and patient to explain even though my English is quite limited.I am completely satisfied with the service of FL-Air Heating & Cooling (Steve if I don't remember the name wrong). I would recommend to anyone with HVAC needs and will continue to consider FL-Air Heating & Cooling as a reliable partner in the future. Thank you Steve, thank you FL-Air Heating & Cooling

Called about an issue with wiring that caused my AC to not work, Gage from FL-Air was here in just an hour and took care of the entire problem and even looked over some other things to make sure it was all good. cannot recommend this company enough.Update 12-5-20: had some other issues with my unit and once again fl-air heating & cooling was out the same day and got us fixed up and taken care of. Mike and mark were thoughtful and helpful and made sure everything was in working order as we head towards colder days.Update 5-7-2021: Had our power cut out in our neighborhood, it flicked back on and blew the transformer in our unit. gage got out to us in just a few hours and got us running again.

Had an excellent experience with FL-Air Heating & Cooling. Mark was very knowledgeable, friendly and honest. He wasn't pushy and did not try to sell us an over priced AC Unit. His crew, Gage and Clayton were professional and also very friendly and polite. They arrived on time and got the job done two hours ahead of schedule. They cleaned up after the job was completed and explained everything very clearly. Highly recommend FL-Air Heating & Cooling!!!

This team is great because of their responsiveness and professionalism. Clients are provided the name of the technician to arrive and a tight time window. Additionally, this team has demonstrated that they will analyze the issue with your unit instead of rushing to sell a new unit. I will definitely reach out to Steve and his team should I need AC services in the future.

9/20/22 Still as awesome as day one keeping my old unit going! Today we met Travis and he was just as friendly and to the point as the rest of the crew! He was able to bypass the broken part to get us going again until the part can be ordered .3/12/22 update still my first call were wanting to redo the ductwork came right over to measure and get the layout cant wait to get it all done9/15/21 update still the best I refer them to everyone!This evening I saw a water line on the ceiling where my unit is in the attic 😩 They got a tech out to me asap drain line had clogged and overflowed the pan best part is because I have their highly recommend maintenance package todays service was covered !!!Definitely buy the maintenance plan and do ur regular maintenance services. I unfortunately had to reschedule my maintenance appointment yesterday because of work if I hadnt done that they would of caught this before the damage was done oh well 😃.7/30/21 still just as awesome as my first service shows up on time gets right to it up and running again in no time very affordable honest . Still my go to company!Thank u again Steve!3/9/21 below review still stands true since 2018 or early 2019? Long enough to continuously back them and refer others to them.Today my Unit was making an awful noise they sent someone to me asap to diagnose the issue Steve showed up in no time at all took his time naturally the unit didn't make the noise right away but, he waited and was gunna look into things anyways instead of like most others that say "can't duplicate issue" charge you and leave been there done that. Until I found FL- Air Heating and Cooling.I cant thank you enough ! Good honest caring companies are hard to find FL - Air Heating & Cooling has been that and more for us for over a year weve used them for maintenance and repairs theyve always showed up on time and get straight to the problem no pressure tactics !

another well known company in the area came out to diagnose my situation. without any troubleshooting, they wanted to automatically replace a motor of air handler; didn't even check the warranty status. I called FL Heating & Air and they not only found my part to be under warranty, diagnosed correctly the right part that was needed and replaced it for much cheaper and faster. Ryan is a great technician. Knowledgeable and Nice.

Thermostat stopped working and Steve walked me through some steps to troubleshoot before sending a tech out. Ended up needing the tech to confirm it was just a bad thermostat. The tech hooked up the hvac so it would cool while I went out to get a new thermostat. Only cost me the $49 service fee. Will definitely call again when I need service or repair.

Best in the Tampa Bay area ! Both Brandt and Dawsyn did a fast and very clean and professional install of my new HVAC system. Attention to every single detail was unsurpassed and to their credit they were able to install the air handler in a very tight closet space. Very happy that I chose to go with FL-Air.

Our AC stopped working on the second floor. Ryan came on a Friday night at 8pm and stayed past 11 to try and fix it. He worked hard, was able to get it working again. I have two little kids and it was over 80 degrees so we were very thankful. Most places couldn’t get me in until the next day, they came out within an hour or two. Very profession, smart, and was able to diagnose the problem. He’s going to come again the next day to make sure everything is still working and run a few more tests. Would definitely use them again!

Anita Akers

We came home tonight (Friday, July in FL) to find our AC off and our digital thermostat blank. We first called a different company, where we have a service contract, and they told us they couldn't sent a tech out until Sunday at the earliest.Unsatisfied we saw that FL-Air offered a "free second opinion" so we called to see if there was anything they could do, or if they could send a tech out earlier. Channing and Mark were absolutely lovely and talked us through fixing the very simple problem on the phone, no charge.We are very impressed and will giving our business to FL-Air in the future, they absolutely earned a customer today.
