Packaged rooftop units
The standard on small retail, office and restaurant buildings across Tampa Bay. Repair, replacement and scheduled service, including crane coordination when a unit has to come off the roof.
Commercial HVAC in Tampa Bay
Offices, retail, restaurants, medical suites and multi-unit buildings. Same license, same crew, scheduled around your hours instead of ours.
Downtime is the real cost
When an air conditioner fails in a house, the family is uncomfortable. When it fails in a restaurant in August, you send customers home. That difference drives how we handle commercial work: faster triage, honest timelines, and a clear answer about whether we can restore cooling today or need to stage a temporary fix.
It also changes what good maintenance looks like. Commercial equipment runs far more hours per year than a residential system, so the failures that take years to develop in a house show up in months on a rooftop unit. Scheduled maintenance on commercial equipment is not an upsell, it is the difference between planned spend and an emergency call during your busiest week. See commercial maintenance for how we structure that, and commercial air quality if the complaint is ventilation or humidity rather than temperature.
What we handle
Split and ducted systems
Common in converted buildings and medical suites. We handle sizing when a space changes use, which is when the original system usually stops being right for the load.
Multi-zone mini-split arrays
Practical where different rooms are occupied at different times. Cooling one office after hours should not mean running a system built for the whole floor.
Planned maintenance programs
Visit frequency set by how hard the equipment actually runs, with documented condition reports so you can budget replacement rather than be surprised by it.
Multi-unit residential
Apartment and condo buildings where a single owner is responsible for many identical systems. Standardizing equipment across units makes parts and service far cheaper.
Emergency response
Same-day in most cases. We prioritize by business impact, because an hour of downtime in a commercial space is not the same as an hour in a spare bedroom.
Scheduling around your business
Replacing a rooftop unit on a Saturday costs the same as replacing it on a Tuesday. One of those closes your business for a day. For any planned commercial work we will quote the job around your operating hours, including evenings and weekends, at no premium for the inconvenience to us.
Every commercial installation is permitted and inspected under Florida license CAC1820870, exactly as residential work is. We pull the permit and meet the inspector so your facilities staff do not have to manage it.
Equipment we are certified on
We are factory-certified to install and service Carrier, Goodman, Rheem, LG, Midea equipment for commercial as well as residential customers. Where a building already runs one manufacturer, standardizing replacements on it keeps one parts inventory rather than several.
Commercial HVAC questions
Do you work on commercial buildings, or only homes?
Both, under the same Florida license CAC1820870. We handle light commercial work across Tampa Bay: offices, retail units, restaurants, medical suites, warehouses, and multi-unit residential buildings. The equipment is larger and the scheduling is different, but the license and the standard are the same.
Can you service our system outside business hours?
Yes, and for most commercial jobs that is the sensible approach. Replacing a rooftop unit over a weekend costs the same as replacing it on a Tuesday, but it does not close your business for a day. We schedule commercial replacements around your operating hours.
Do you offer planned maintenance contracts for commercial properties?
Yes. Commercial equipment runs far more hours than residential equipment, so a scheduled maintenance program is usually the difference between planned spend and emergency spend. We set a visit frequency based on the equipment and how hard it runs, not a one-size interval.
What size commercial jobs do you take?
Light commercial: packaged rooftop units, split systems, and mini-split arrays in buildings up to roughly 25 tons of total capacity. That covers most offices, retail spaces, restaurants and small industrial units in Tampa Bay. For very large chilled water plants we will tell you honestly that it is outside what we do.
How quickly can you respond if our system fails?
Same day in most cases. For a business, downtime has a cost per hour that a homeowner does not face, so commercial calls are prioritized accordingly. If we cannot restore cooling immediately, we will tell you what temporary options exist rather than leaving you waiting.
