Job Locations and Reviews
I arrived on site and found the unit working properly and without issue. I have verified a 20F degree temp split, and confirmed the refrigerant side of the system is working properly. I tested all electrical components and found them to Al be in spec and functioning properly. The only thing I noticed is that the thermostat fan what been set to on instead of auto, so I changed it back to auto. I have verified that the unit is working/ cooling properly at the time of service.
Upon arrival, I found a blank thermostat due to a popped low-voltage fuse. After further inspecting the system, I found the thermostat wires to be rubbing the exterior portion of the metal building which ate through the insulation on the copper wire causing a direct short. I sent an estimate for a wire repair and a low-voltage fuse. It was approved. After performing the wire repair and installing a new fuse the system came on. I then tested system operations and found the primary safety switch to be bad. The customer approved the estimate for a new safety switch. After install installing the primary float safety switch your system is operating properly at this time .
Great service!
05/14/2025- I preformed the maintenance for this unit after I had repaired the refrigerant leak. I have verified a temp split of 22F degrees and all components are working properly. I have cleaned, cleared, and re-primed the drain line as well as verified that the unit is draining properly. This unit is working properly and functioning correctly at the time of service.
05/14/2025- I repaired the refrigerant leak and charged the unit up with 13 lbs of 410A refrigerant. After I repaired the refrigerant leak I preformed a nitrogen pressure test and leak search, and have verified that the unit holds pressure with no leaks. I have verified that the unit is cooling properly and functioning properly at the time of service. I called the customer to inform him that I set the thermostat to 78F degrees, and to inform him of the completed work and collect for the work preformed. The customer is out of town and didn’t answer his phone so I will email him the invoice.
Upon arrival I found the customer’s split system had a popped low-voltage fuse. upon further inspection, I found the primary drain safety float switch wire that ties into the red wire in the air handler to be broken at the wire or not. I also found the pressure switch wire in the condenser to be rubbing the frame of the condenser and worn down through the insulation and was intermittently hitting the stranded copper wire, causing a direct short. I sent an estimate to do a low-voltage wire repair and replace the fuse. The customer approved the estimate. After performing a wire repair and changing the low-voltage fuse. The system came on and is cooling properly at this time. I also sent estimates for the customer to get on a yearly maintenance plan.

Brandon was a pleasure to have tune up our air conditioner unit. Very professional, knowledgeable, and great communication skills. Thanks.
I performed a tune up on the equipment. Testing system operations, component amperages, capacitor ratings, cleared the drain line, checked the filters, cleaned the condenser outside, and checked the batteries in the thermostat. The system is working properly at this time.
Installed a new 20 Seer 9K BTU Samsung Mini Split Heat Pump. The new system comes with a ten year parts and one year labor warranty.
05/02/2025- I arrived on site to find the unit cooling decently but no moving enough airflow to cool the house. I noticed that I was losing a significant amount of cooling from the 90s of the supply ductwork further contributing to the suboptimal cooling in the house. The return is significantly undersized leading me to recommend a larger return on another section of the house. As far as the unit blowing hot air, the homeowner has a nest thermostat. Even though everything was working properly on the thermostat while I was there, the nest thermostat head units can go bad a cause the unit to go into the wrong mode or cause other issues like that. I have informed the homeowner to keep an eye on the thermostat to see if any issues like this reoccurs, and to change the nest thermostat head unit if these problems persist. I have sent a estimate for adding a return duct of any size to the customer.
04/30/2025- I arrived site to find the pool house unit cooling the downstairs of the pool house properly and two degrees above the set point upstairs. I have verified that the unit is cooling with a 23F degree temp split. I have also checked and confirmed that the unit’s refrigerant pressures are proper at this time as well. I wasn’t getting as much airflow as downstairs however, I found the washable air filter to be dirty. After washing the filter I still wasn’t getting as much airflow as the downstairs area, until the downstairs area cooled to temperature. Since this unit is a zone system I discovered that when both zones are calling for cool the upstairs zone receives less airflow than the downstairs area. This coupled with the fact that heat rises and the fact that the customer runs a dehumidifier the exhausts hot air in the upstairs zone explains why the upstairs area is taking a longer time to cool to temperature. After the downstairs zone reaches its temperature and the damper

04/25/2025- I found the breaker for the Bosch unit tripped, leaving the unit without high voltage power. After I flipped the breaker to test the unit I discovered that the electricity would not flow through the Genarac box after the outside disconnect box. I am unable to test the unit until the issue in the Genarac box has been resolved. I have informed the homeowner and he said he would contact the company that installed the generator to fix the issue in the Genarac box.
04/22/2025- I arrived on site and preformed the supply duct removal and resealed the supply tap as well as the supply air distribution block, which the removed duct connected to. I have verified that the sealed area doesn’t leak airflow and have confirmed that the unit is working properly at time of service.
Maintenance complete. Cleared the drain and checked electrical components. I found that the compressor was pulling high amps on startup. Installed a hard start capacitor to the condenser to give the compressor an extra boost on startup. This increases the life of the compressor. Everything is working properly at this time.

Havana, FL, HVAC Company FAQs
A home HVAC system should be serviced at least twice a year in Havana, FL. For the best results, you should have your HVAC system serviced once in the fall and once in the spring, right before the peak heating and cooling seasons. Getting your HVAC unit maintenance before these peak months will help you spot any issues with your HVAC system and help it run efficiently all year long.
It costs about $350-$600 to repair your home HVAC system in Havana, FL. The overall cost of the repair can vary depending on:
- The kind of repair
- The level of the repair
- The cost for replacement parts
The cost can also increase if you need the repair done on the weekend or after hours, since contractors usually have higher hourly rates during those times.
Your home air conditioner may not be turning on in Havana, FL because:
- Your air filter is dirty or clogged
- The circuit breaker to your AC unit has tripped
- Your thermostat is set incorrectly
Another reason your air conditioner may not be turning on is if your air conditioner’s thermostat is malfunctioning, broken or requires new batteries. If you check and fix all of these potential issues and your air conditioner still won’t turn on, you should have an HVAC technician repair your air conditioner.
The best way to improve your indoor air quality in your Havana, FL home is to reduce the sources of pollution. However, that is not always possible since cooking and other daily activities can cause pollution in your home. If you are unable to remove most sources of indoor air pollution, the next best option is to use your bathroom and kitchen exhaust fans. Additionally, cleaning your home can also be helpful in reducing the dust and dirt that can contribute to poor indoor air quality.
