What We Do
Advanced Cooling and Heating is a licensed Florida HVAC contractor (License #CAC057209), established in 1996, providing heating repair, installation and maintenance for residential and commercial systems across Palm Beach County and Southeast Florida. Unlike colder regions where gas furnaces are standard, almost every property here heats with a heat pump — the same unit that cools you in August, running in reverse.
That has a practical consequence people rarely think about. Your heating equipment is not a separate machine sitting in reserve; it is the machine that has been working hard all summer. When a cold front arrives and it switches to heating mode for the first time in months, any wear on the reversing valve, the controls or the auxiliary heat strips shows up immediately.
Because the demand is short and sudden, heating faults tend to be discovered at the worst moment — on the first genuinely cold evening, when everyone else has discovered the same thing. Testing the heating side while you do not need it is the single most useful thing you can do, and it takes one appointment.
What We Service
Five kinds of heating equipment cover almost every property in Southeast Florida. Furnaces barely feature, which is why heating faults here look different from anywhere else in the country.
The standard here. Heats by reversing refrigerant flow to draw warmth from outdoor air, so heating and cooling share the same components. Heat pump repair.
Resistance elements that supplement the heat pump when outdoor temperatures fall too far for it to keep up alone.
The logic that decides when to bring the strips in. When it fails you either get no extra heat, or strips running when they need not be.
Separate equipment with its own service needs, often neglected until the water is unusable.
Larger systems for offices, retail and multi-tenant buildings, where a heating failure affects occupants rather than one household. Commercial HVAC.
New heat pumps and full system replacement, sized by load calculation and installed to Florida code. Heating installation.
What Goes Wrong
Because heating gets used so little here, nearly all of these are discovered on the first cold night rather than gradually. They are all diagnosable in advance.
Emergency heating service is available outside standard hours. Cold fronts here are short but sharp, and we would rather come out than have you run space heaters for a week.
If the system is tripping its breaker, stop resetting it and call — repeated resets on a faulty heat strip circuit are a genuine fire risk.
Call (561) 697-4247If the reversing valve fails or auxiliary heat does not activate, the system may continue operating in cooling mode or fail to generate heat properly. Diagnostic testing verifies correct mode switching and electrical performance.
Auxiliary heat should activate during lower outdoor temperatures. If indoor air feels cool during heating mode, electric heat strips may require inspection or repair.
Yes. Emergency heating repair services are available during cold snaps to restore heating performance quickly.
Yes. Inactivity increases the risk of electrical degradation and control failure. Preventative heating inspection ensures safe operation before sudden temperature drops.
Most Florida homes rely on heat pumps with electric heat strips. However, electric furnace and air handler heating systems are serviced where installed.
From emergency AC repairs and refrigerant leak detection to full HVAC system replacement, ductwork installation, heat pump service, and indoor air quality solutions, our HVAC technicians are ready to respond.
If you are experiencing no cooling, system failure, electrical issues, or AC leaks, call now for priority dispatch at 561-697-4247.
Emergency heating service is available outside standard hours, including weekends. If the system is tripping its breaker, leave it off and call rather than resetting it repeatedly — a faulty heat strip circuit is one of the few genuine safety risks in a Florida HVAC system.
