Memorial Day HVAC Prep: Stay Cool Before Summer Hits

By FL-Air Heating and Cooling on May 23, 2025

Memorial Day is more than just a long weekend; it’s an opportunity to remember and give thanks to those who paid the ultimate price for the freedom we enjoy today in our great country. Memorial Day also marks the shift into Florida’s hottest and most humid season. As the temperature rises, your HVAC system becomes…

The ONLY AC company I will use from now on

This is the ONLY AC company I will use from now on. Called Mark up to get a quote on a new system because my current system is a 10yr old Trane but has never worked as expected since I moved in 5 yrs ago. I’ve done bi-annual maintenance, filter changes monthly and had 3 separate AC companies provide maintenance over the 5 years with at least 6 different service techs. All said the unit was working as expected and was in good shape. I’ve never been able to keep the house in the late summer afternoon heat under 78-80 degrees. We tried to never use the oven in the summer because it would heat the house to over 80 degrees. When Mark stopped by, instead of talking price/units and what he could provide, he simply asked what was wrong and went out to check the unit. Literally within 15 minutes, he said he thought the system might be wired wrong and it wasn’t hitting the second speed. Within 1.5 hours, he re-wired the condenser, the air handler/furnace, and the thermostat. My AC is now working as designed and my home has never been more comfortable. I’m getting 58-60 degrees out of my supply vents now. Previously, I was getting 68-73 degrees. Sorry Trane, I was badmouthing your product for years because I thought it was subpar and because 3 separate companies said it was working as designed. Mark mentioned a lot of techs don’t understand the more complex design of Tranes and it needs to be done correctly right from the start. Mark, you are a life saver and your company is the only one I WILL EVER USE!

Positive: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness, Value

David Turner

This is an update to my initial review of FL-AIR Heating & Cooling almost a year ago. HVAC tech Brandt came to my home yesterday to perform routine maintenance on our air handler. He arrived on time. His manner was courteous and professional. Brandt's work was both careful and thorough from start to finish.

During a previous appointment Brandt noticed that the insulation on the inside of the handler's front panel was peeling off. He spray-glued it back into place and anchored the perimeter with a strong adhesive tape. I appreciate that he pays attention to the details.

Before leaving, Brandt gave me a brief verbal summary of all the items he had checked and serviced. In a nutshell, my experience with FL-Air has been excellent. I give them my highest recommendation.

Response from the owner:Hi, David. We are thrilled to learn that you had a positive experience with us!

Sherri Scharber

My first experience with FL-Air Heating and Cooling was when I called for my mother to have her A/C serviced. I was so impressed with the customer service and professionalism. I have since called them on multiple occasions for my mother's A/C repairs and for my own service and repairs. They have extended office hours, which is convenient for those that work during regular business hours. The office staff and the technicians are very friendly and have gone above and beyond to accommodate our needs as quickly as possible. Brandt has been our technician each time we've needed someone to come out, and we love him! He is so courteous and always explains everything in great detail, so that we fully understand what the issues are and what can be done to fix them. I would highly recommend that you call FL-Air Heating and Cooling the next time you need your heating and AC unit serviced and/or repaired!

Response from the owner:Hi, Sherri. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!

Brandt was such a sweet young man. Super friendly, and knowledgeable. He didn’t try to sell us anything unnecessary, wasn’t pushy, took his time, arrived early, and explained what was recommended for a repair. We opted to just replace, and he explained all of our options with systems. I like that this company had multiple options with makes and models, and they’re able to replace duct work as well. Hang on to Brandt, he truly has integrity.
