Air Conditioner Maintenance Tips for Winter in Florida
Living in Florida has some major perks. Summers are sunny and winters are – sunny. While Florida winters are mild...
What Should I Look For When Buying a New Unit?
- Choose a manufacturer that has a good reputation for quality and durability.
- Choose a model with a high-efficiency rating to bring you better comfort and lower your seasonal energy bill. Check the SEER rating. The higher the rating, the more efficient the unit.
- Choose the correct equipment size and system for your home.
- Don’t just buy a unit just because it is on sale and seems like a great deal at the time. Research the products below or ask the N.A.T.E. Certified technicians at Scott’s Air for more product information.
- Finally, choose a reliable company with excellent customer satisfaction and a track record of service after the sale.
You Deserve the Best!

I did research and saw all the positive reviews. I met with Dan in sales and liked the way I was treated as a customer. The installers, Brad and Justin were very experienced and solved any problem that needed attention. I had both inside and outside units replaced, all the copper and drain pipes. The new programmable thermostat works great. Parker and Nate showed up shortly after to replace two attic ducts. Good work once again. Then Patrick came out to install the blue light in the inside unit. Everyone supported each other, great teamwork.

One of the few companies that saw a supply chain issue in advance and started to stockpile systems so when I needed a new one, BOOM, they where ready, willing, and able. Also, they left the area looking brand new unlike other companies.

Our 13 year old A/C system was ready to be replaced after struggling all summer to keep my house cool. Victor and the installation guys (Santiago, Jose, Brad), were all super professional and made sure we were well taken care of. When we finalized all the paperwork for the new A/C, Victor came back after hours and installed a temporary window unit so my family could be comfortable in this unbearable Florida heat. Santiago, Jose, and Brad were extremely kind and paid attention to detail when they were installing new a/c system. The Scott’s Heating and A/C crew is awesome and it’s rare to find businesses that are trustworthy and go above and beyond. Thank you!

AC went out late Saturday evening. So hot! Called Scotts Air on Sun. They answered right away & came out to fix it a few hours later. Didnt charge an arm & a leg & Gerry was very professional. Had a part replaced & back to cold air. Many thanks to them for coming to my rescue!

We've used Scott's for over 8 years. They serviced and eventually installed new AC units at our previous and current home. We had original units in both locations and it seemed like they always went out on weekends or at night. Scott's always got someone out ASAP. I highly recommend them. And, after installing new AC in both locations I can tell you that we had an extremely positive experience. There were no surprises, their pricing was competitive and the new equipment saved us hundreds of dollars on our monthly power bill. We wouldn't use anyone else! They are the best and they take care of business.

Literally phenomenal from start to finish. The admin taking our call was delightfully polite and it was nothing short of miraculous that someone was able to tend to our problem within the hour of our call. Clif, the person who came out was polite, patient, and knowledgeable. We will continue to use your company at any point needed.

Top notch company from sales to installation they did an excellent job. And the new Bryant a/c system is superb.

Scott has an amazing team. All the employees are very smart and courteous. My system has been running flawlessly for 5 years now. The only time it stopped was when a frog sat on top of the heat pump to warm up, he dried himself to a prune and fell into the heat pump fan and it stopped from running.

We've had a great experience with Scott's. Found our way to them through community recommendations and good google reviews when we needed a new A/C. The office staff is very friendly and helpful. Whenever we have a need, I feel like they take ownership and care about the resolution. For example, after our new unit was installed, we had some questions and observations on how it was working compared to our replaced system. A senior tech came out to help us calibrate our thermostat and adjust our vents. Pricing is fair and transparent and I don't feel like we're being "sold." I trust Scott's.

I was looking for a specific brand, Scott's was one of the dealers. I immediately felt comfortable with Danny, the sales rep. The pricing was fair, the people were awesome, and they did what they said they were going to do, when they said they were going to do it. What more could you ask?

Saturday afternoon, no A/C. Checked out the internet and saw that Scott's had many positive reviews so I called. The person on the phone was friendly and understanding and eager to help me get service that day. When the service man showed up he was intent on finding the cause of our problem, not just the quick fix or an over priced recommendation to "replace the condenser" that had been recommended by another A/C company earlier in the week. He was worked until the job was done, way past "normal" working hours on the weekend and spent the time waiting to make sure the house cooled down before leaving. I was excited to find out about the maintenance agreement that is offered by Scott's because I would NEVER trust anyone else to service my A/C.

The salesman, Victor, was very informative as to the different AC models and answered any questions I had. He was fair in his pricing. The installation team were experienced and strived for perfection in the installation. They worked long and hard to complete the installation in one day despite some challenges they came across. I am glad I chose Scott's.

I recommend using Scott's Heating and Air 100 times over. They were very knowledgeable, prompt, and their products are excellent. I had two new AC units installed and another one repaired. They answered all my questions, educated me on how to care for my units, and went above and beyond when to assist me even after installation when I had more questions later! I will never use anyone else and I highly recommend them !

Cliff was our Air conditioner specialist and was amazing. He figured out why our air condition continued to go off. He also was working late into the night, which means he would probably working overtime.

After dealing with a different a/c company and getting unsatisfactory service (didn't repair the unit & we were without air) and no return calls, I got Scott's contact info from a friend. I called them in the morning and they were out in the afternoon. As it turned out, the repairs were too costly on an old machine and so we replaced it. The install went seamlessly! From the office point of contact to the follow up on the install every staff member was professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. We are so happy to find Scott's and look forward to working with them as the need arises!

I just had my AC replaced by Scott's and can't say enough about how great the experience was from start to finish. I called 7 different AC companies in the area and Dan the sales rep from Scott's stood above all the rest. Clearly explained the options and differences between the different technologies available today (Single, two Stage, Variable) and didn't try to over sell me like most other AC companies recommending I needed the most expensive unit. Dan laid out three recommended options and once he educated me on the differences, left it up to me to choose the best value for the performance I was looking for. Best experience by far! When it came to the installation, I knew I made the right choice as I saw the great attention detail and meticulous workmanship at every stage of the install. I knew this was the most critical aspect of the longevity and performance of the AC unit and it was clear Scott's trains their techs to take pride in their work. The day after install I received warranty confirmation from Bryant, which shows they submitted the paperwork ASAP. From start to finished - amazing experience and would highly recommend for anyone looking to replace their AC and not break the bank while doing it!

I will absolutely use Scott's Heating & Air Conditioning service again. After receiving service and requesting system installation quotes from other local HVAC companies, I was so disappointed. I turned to Scott's as a result of a recommendation/referral from a close friend. Their service did not disappoint. They were highly professional, honest and provided punctual and quality service. They have gained a loyal customer. Thank you Scott's team!

These guys are truly professional. My AC unit died and had one night of a hot house with kids. They responded the following day, came within the time frame and repaired swiftly. Technician Victor was friendly and professional, didn't leave until the AC was verified working. I appreciate the business and highly recommend!

Scott's is by far the best air conditioning company I have found in Central Florida. They just installed a new A/C system at my house. The entire team was respectful, professional, and dedicated. They provide fantastic, speedy service. I have called on them for both maintenance and for the purchase of an entire system. This company has its act together. They are truly dedicated to customer service, and it shows. Prices are reasonable, and they stand behind their products. A/C is nothing to mess around with in Florida, and you can trust what you get from Scott's! Special thanks to the hard working install team: Jose, DJ, Nate, and Pablo. Those guys went above and beyond to do a spectacular job. Thanks also to the Install Manager Jeff for personally ensuring the job was going well, and to the salesperson Dan, who was exceptionally knowledgeable and quick to respond to follow up questions.

I am on a service plan with Scott's heating and air so I don't have to worry about maintaining my ac as it is done for me, very prompt service, very professional . Also with being on this service plan if any problems arise there is little to no wait time to get a tech out to fix the problem, I know this because I recently had an issue thaty they resolved for me.

What a pleasure finding Scott's Heating & Air Conditioning. From the moment I called and chatted with Michelle to the time when Cliff finished up it was a most satisfying experience. Cliff went above and beyond to diagnose any other potential problems and took the time to explain the 'hows & why's' of what he was doing and the benefits therein. I called in the morning, Scott's responded in the afternoon and had me up and running the same day at a very fair price. I've bookmarked Scott's Heating & Air Conditioning...they're my peeps.

No one wants to have to replace their AC but if you have to, go with Scott's!! From the sales consult with Dan, to the conversations had with Michelle in the office, to the final install with Elias, Justin and Keenan, it was all top notch. Extremely professional, very knowledgeable and very personable. You have VERY happy customer!!

Nothing short of amazing in all aspects. Dan having a tech background was VERY helpful in understanding the different options and selecting the best value solution. The crew showed up on time and went above and beyond in the demo of the old system/install of the new one. They took every opportunity to make things better than new as they completed the install. Just to show how amazing it was, when the thermostat was discovered to have the wrong software to allow communicating with the other components, Dan drove across town at 7pm on New Year's Eve to deliver the correct version- and stayed around to ensure everything came online without a hitch. We've already recommended these folks to friends, and we'll be back when we have more HVAC needs.

Had an AC unit installed by Scott's recently. They did a great job and the new AC unit is working well. Only complaint is they could have cleaned better. Some screws and piping were left in the yard. They're a great company and I highly recommend them for all your HVAC needs.

Highly recommended! Reached out to Scott's and got an immediate call back-Good start. Scheduled time to troubleshoot problem-they gave a 1 hour arrival time and showed up right on time-Great. Gave me options that I researched and agreed with there recommendations-unit was almost 15 years old and repairs were just gonna be a temporary fix so decided to replace unit. They gave me the price and verified that they had the materials to get the job done. 2 days later they got the job done as promised and the new unit is quieter, colder and more efficient. Good job.

The lady on the phone was so polite and friendly when I scheduled the appointment. Cliff was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful as well as courteous and professional. He informed us of the products and resources available without us feeling like he was trying to push them on us. I feel much better knowing we have a maintenance agreement with Scott's and that Cliff is only a phone call away if we have AC problems again.

Anytime you spend thousands of dollars you want to make sure you need it done and is it a good price. The staff at Scott's explained to me what happen to make my old stop working, my options to fix or replace. The tech was good enough to explain it to me in a way that was easy to understand. Once I said yes I want it replaced the speed and response was better than I even hopped. They delivered on every promise made. Every staff member I came into contact with was professional and ready with a smiling voice.

Daniel (our salesman) was great and very personable, he had the install coordinated and ready to go in about 2 days, and to top it off, beat the competition price by a fair margin. Dan and Brad (our installers) were terrific as well. had a small miscommunication during install, explained it to Dan and all was well. the installers worked diligently, did great work, and cleaned up after themselves like they were never here. communication from the office was great. all around nice bunch of folks. i wouldn't hesitate to use their services again. thanks Scott's team!
