Trying to service or understand your HVAC system on your own can be hard, which is why the experts at Florida Cool receive a lot of questions. We’ve compiled a few frequently asked questions and their answers for you to learn more:


How often should I service my HVAC system?


To keep your HVAC system running in tip-top shape, we recommend a maintenance appointment twice a year (once for heat, once for air conditioning). This way, a technician can check your filters, coils, wiring, housing, motor, and more to make sure you’re getting the most out of your system.


What happens when I need a repair on a holiday or weekend?'


Don’t worry! Whether your problem happens at three in the morning or on the 4th of July, our HVAC service experts are available to get your system back up and running. Just call us.


What’s the warranty like on a new HVAC system?


Most of our HVAC systems come with a 10-year warranty, so you can enjoy your system for years to come. We also have great maintenance plans to help you lower your utility bills and extend the life of your equipment.


Which HVAC System is right for my Home?


To answer that, you’ll need an appointment with one of our HVAC service experts. We’ll come to your home and evaluate its size, heating and cooling needs, environment, and the work we’ll need to do. Then, we can recommend the best system for you and install it quickly.


What can I do to lower my energy bills?


There are plenty of things, such as:


  • Install a programmable thermostat so you don’t waste air conditioning or heat while you’re not at home.
  • Switch your incandescent light bulbs to more energy efficient light bulbs like compact fluorescents (CFLs) or LEDs.
  • Install ceiling fans and, when you can, use them instead of your air conditioning to cool you down.
  • Unplug any appliance that you’re not using. While it may not be turned on, it will still use power from your electrical outlet.
  • Make sure your windows and doors are sealed properly so that they don’t let air in and make your HVAC system work harder.
