As an AC Repair service you may think we don’t enjoy the winter — but actually it is a very steady stream of business for us — as our clients return to beautiful sunny South Florida.
No one wants to arrive at their South Florida vacation home and find the air conditioner isn’t working properly. Or find the HVAC system had been damaged from a power surge or lighting strike.
Many of our snowbird clients have maintenance contracts and we service their condos, townhomes, villas etc twice a year (shortly before winter and summer begin).
It is important in South Florida that humidity be removed or mold and mildew take over.
We suggest to our snowbird clients with newer homes or townhouses, while away, to set their air conditioning to about 80˚F enough to keep bills down and prevent mold from building up on carpet or walls.
Florida Power & Light (FPL) has good suggestions if you have an older home with a humidistat. How to prevent mold using a humidistat.
