How Long Does an HVAC System Last in FL

Top Rated HVAC Services in Florida

Florida’s climate is lovely in so many ways. However with heat waves and humidity comes a need for air conditioning year round. Given the high demands that Florida residents and business owners put on their air conditioning unit, they tend to last about 5 to 7 years less than air conditioners do in other areas of the United States. Typically, an air conditioning unit in Florida is good for about 10 to 15 years.


Much of this deterioration is due to factors in the environment like tropical humidity, constant use, and salt. However, proper maintenance can extend the lifespan of an air conditioning unit in Florida to 20 or more years. This maintenance includes things like changing the filters monthly, getting professional service on your air conditioning unit annually, and cleaning and removing debris. It’s also important to allow professional HVAC technicians to assist you in selecting the air conditioning system that is best for your home. Even factors like selecting the correct size can have an impact on how long your air conditioning lasts.

Stay Comfortable with Key Heating & Cooling AC Services

Depending on the HVAC system for your home, you may or may not have a heating system that is separate from your cooling system or heat pump. While it is uncommon, some homes in Florida do have a furnace system. With the proper maintenance, the furnace can last up to 20 years.
