AC Installation & Replacement in Oakland Park & Fort Lauderdale
Signs It's Time to Replace Your AC
We'll always give you an honest recommendation — repair or replace.
System is 12–15+ years old
South Florida's year-round use ages systems faster. If yours is over 12 years old and needs a major repair, replacement is usually the smarter investment.
Repair costs exceed 50% of replacement
We follow the 50% rule — if a repair costs more than half the price of a new system, we'll recommend replacement and show you the math.
SEER rating below 14
Older systems run at SEER 8–10. A new SEER 16–18 system can cut your cooling bill by 30–40% — often paying for itself in 4–6 years.
Frequent breakdowns
If you've called for repairs twice in one season, the system is telling you something. We'll give you an honest assessment.
Uneven cooling throughout the home
Hot and cold spots often mean the system is undersized or the ductwork needs attention. A new properly-sized system solves both.
R-22 refrigerant system
R-22 (Freon) is no longer manufactured. If your system uses it, refrigerant leaks are now extremely expensive to fix. Time to upgrade.

Common Questions
How long does a new AC installation take?
Most residential replacements take 4–6 hours. New construction or systems requiring ductwork modifications may take longer. We'll give you a realistic timeline upfront.
What size AC do I need?
Size is determined by a Manual J load calculation — square footage, ceiling height, insulation, window area, and sun exposure all factor in. An oversized system short-cycles and doesn't dehumidify properly. We size it right.
What SEER rating should I choose?
Florida's minimum is SEER 15. We recommend SEER 16–18 for most homes — the energy savings pay back the cost difference in 3–5 years. SEER 20+ makes sense for large homes or customers who prioritize maximum efficiency.
Do you offer financing?
Yes — we work with several financing partners to offer low-interest and deferred-interest options. Ask us about current promotions when you call.
Is a permit required?
Yes, in Florida a permit is required for all new AC installations. We handle the permit process as part of every installation — it's included in our price.
