AC Storm Protection: How to Protect Your Air Conditioner from Tropical Storms

By FL-Air Heating and Cooling on August 25, 2025

Florida weather can turn fast, and your air conditioner sits outside taking the first hit. Homeowners board windows and bring in patio furniture, then overlook the equipment that keeps the house livable when humidity climbs. Good AC storm protection prevents avoidable damage, lowers repair costs, and helps your system start safely once the storm moves…

AC Repair

Growing quickly in large part because of the referrals he receives from his highly satisfied customers

I am so happy to have connected with Mark Lang and his company, FL-AIR HEATING AND COOLING. This young family-man spent seven years in the HVAC business and saw the worst practices of the industry. He started his company a year ago, and is growing quickly in large part because of the referrals he receives from his highly satisfied customers.

I could not recommend Mark and his team more highly

Very professional and prompt.

Mark and his crew were great to work with. Very professional and prompt. His pricing is fair, and he takes great pride in his work. We would gladly endorse his services and can’t be more happy with his repairs and all his help.

AC repairs can be costly, but I believe Mark gave me a competitive quote without doing unneeded repairs.

Mark was very helpful! He gave my unit a prompt diagnosis and took the time to walk me through each step so that I knew exactly what the condition of my unit was. AC repairs can be costly, but I believe Mark gave me a competitive quote without doing unneeded repairs.

M Moore

I’ve been using FL-Air for the last 3-4 years and have been very happy with their service. What I most appreciate is that they do not try to upsell you every time they do maintenance unlike other companies I have used. I’m on their maintenance program and they always remind me when maintenance is due.

Response from the owner:Hi, M. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!

The service I received from my initial dealing with Tony through our install with Travis and Dustin were great! All responded quickly to our emergency and provided excellent service.

Highly recommend!

Jeremy Chucko

Excellent from start to finish. Within 3 hours of flling out a request online, Brandon came to give us a second opinion on a quote for full system replacement. He confirmed we needed a new system, and proposed 4 options. We chose the best option, which directly compared with the original company quote was $9,000 cheaper! Installation was in two business days. The crew did an excellent job of removal and replacement, with exceptional cleanliness and no damage to our home. Nate came to install the Wi-FI thermostat and the system is running great. Top notch experience from start to finish.

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

J. Smith

Always a solid visit with this company. Very fast, very effective. Brandon Boudreau is always very thorough in exploring root cause issues, to help the customer save money, time, and frustration. Couldn’t be happier. Well, I could be if HVAC equipment lasted 50 years Vice about 10ish!

Nicole Wynn

I’ve been using this AC company for years, and they’ve always delivered exceptional service. I even purchased my new unit from them, and their maintenance plan is top-notch—they’ve never missed an appointment. This summer’s extreme heat caused a few hiccups with my unit, but their prompt response, reliable repairs, and outstanding customer service never disappoint. I truly wouldn’t trust my home’s comfort to anyone else!

Response from the owner:Hi, Nicole. Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!

KEN COWDEN

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

Nora Barry

As a new Florida resident, your home AC is vital and must be properly maintained, it’s so great to have this piece of mind knowing that I will have my system up and running and keeping us cool year round! I signed up for the twice yearly maintenance plan with FL Air and am very happy with their service!! Brandt was on time, super professional and helpful and answered all of my questions while quickly completing the service and even tolerated my dog acting as his assistant the whole time;)

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

Response from the owner:Hi, Jason. As mentioned in our previous response to your review, this was not intended for our company.

According to your initial review, you were reviewing Mid Florida Air We are an AC company located in Tampa Florida, not DeBary, Florida. Thank you.
