Heating Repair in Fort Lauderdale, Florida

Fort Lauderdale presents unique HVAC challenges due to salt air from ocean and Intracoastal. Coastal properties face accelerated corrosion requiring specialized maintenance and corrosion-resistant components. Our technicians understand these local conditions and provide service tailored to Fort Lauderdale's specific climate demands.

Fort Lauderdale AC systems commonly experience corroded coils from salt air, refrigerant leaks, clogged condensate drains from high humidity, frozen coils from continuous operation, and electrical failures from frequent cycling. Our technicians are experienced with all common Fort Lauderdale AC issues.

Common causes include thermostat set incorrectly (on "cool" or "fan only"), heat pump reversing valve stuck in cooling mode, defrost cycle running (heat pumps), pilot light or ignition failure (furnaces), low refrigerant in heat pumps, or emergency heat strips failed. We diagnose the exact cause and provide cost-effective repair solutions.

Heating repair costs vary by problem. Simple fixes like thermostat replacement ($150-$300) or ignitor replacement ($200-$400) are affordable. Major repairs like reversing valve replacement ($800-$1,500) or heat exchanger replacement ($1,000-$2,000) cost more. We always provide upfront pricing before starting work.

We repair all types of heating systems including heat pumps (most common in South Florida), electric furnaces, gas furnaces, ductless mini-split heating systems, and electric heat strips (emergency heat). Our technicians are trained on all major brands and heating technologies.

Consider replacement if your system is over 12-15 years old, requires frequent repairs, repair costs exceed 50% of replacement cost, or can't maintain comfortable temperatures. For newer systems or minor issues, repair is usually more cost-effective. We provide honest recommendations based on your specific situation.

This is typically caused by a faulty reversing valve (the component that switches between heating and cooling), defrost control issues, thermostat wiring problems, or low refrigerant levels. Our technicians can diagnose and repair reversing valve problems, which are common in heat pumps but often fixable without full system replacement.

We offer same-day service and can often arrive within 2-4 hours for heating emergencies. Most heating repairs take 1-3 hours to complete. Our service vehicles carry common replacement parts, allowing us to complete most repairs during the first visit without ordering parts.
