They're the best in the business! You won't find a more trustworthy, honest, professional, competent, air conditioning company. Quality work, great customer service, totally reliable! They just did a whole system replacement in my house. I could not be happier!

What a GREAT company. My AC went out on a Sunday afternoon and the OWNER personally came out to try to fix it. He then got the part and brought a crew to change it out on the day a hurricane hit our area. Instant cool air. WOW what else can I say. This is true customer service. He and his staff are polite, neat and competent. I cannot give enough stars to thank !st Choice Cooling and Heating.

I have been a loyal customer of 1st. Choice Cooling & Heating for many years. My first dealing with them was late one hot summer evening when the other companies I called were closed for the day and asked me to leave a message on their phone. My wife was sick at the time and going without cooling for hours was a problem, nevermind days. Mr. Bruce Hering answered the phone himself at 7:00pm and advised me that he was just finishing a repair near my home and would respond to me within 30 minutes, and if there was a problem with a part he didn't have in stock, he would hook up a portable unit to keep us comfortable until the repair could be completed. Mr. Hering is a very competent man and also holds a State of Florida Contractors License, and is up to date on all local and state codes. The repair was completed within an hour and the fee was more than reasonable.

1st Choice Cooling and Heating helped me with a serious warranty issue. The A/C unit in my new house went out. The builder would not respond, the contractor that installed the unit originally had gone out of business. 1st Choice Cooling and Heating was recommended to me so I called them. Bruce, Gail and Devon were wonderful to deal with. They fought for me when the manufacturer would not return calls or emails. They were persistent and got them to honor the warranty and replace my unit. Bruce and Devon did a great job with the install, I never went without A/C because they put window units in while the system was down. Everything they did was above and beyond anything most companies would do. I highly recommend 1st Choice Cooling and Heating. They're the best!

1st Choice Cooling & Heating is fantastic! I bought a new home and the A/C went out just before the 5 year warranty. The builder did not respond, the contractor that put the A/C unit in went out of business. I called 1st Choice because they were recommended to me. Bruce and Gail and Devon were very helpful. They hounded the manufacturer and went well above and beyond what most companies would do. The manufacturer would not respond to my phone calls or emails but Bruce and Gail were persistent and they got the manufacturer to replace the unit. Most companies would have just given up and left us with the mess to deal with but Bruce and Gail fought for me and got my unit under warranty. I couldn't be happier. These are folks who care about quality and have a hometown spirit, wonderful work ethics and very personable. I highly recommend them.

I am happy to recommend 1st Choice Cooling & Heating. Bruce works on my unit and all my neighbors A/C as well. He was recommended to me and after I saw the quality of work he does I can recommend him to anyone. When 1st Choice Cooling & Heating replaced my 20 year old A/C unit my electric bill dropped between $40-$60 a month. The quality and care that Bruce puts into his work is unsurpassed. He built a deck in my attic around the unit to make it easier to perform maintenance. I've not seen an A/C company go to the lengths that 1st Choice does. His work is exceptional. I highly recommend him.

I requested quotes from 6 local contractors to replace my 20 year old A/C unit. Bruce at 1st Choice was recommended to me by two of my neighbors whom he had done work on their homes. They were completely satisfied with his work so I called Bruce. His quote was the lowest bid. I was surprised at the quality of work he does. He replaced all the duct work and even put in a deck up in the attic where the air handler is. I am using it for storage now. The unit works flawlessly and it is saving me from $40-$60 a month on my electricity bill and the unit has a life time warranty. Bruce does amazing work and I have confidently recommended him to other friends and neighbors. Now if only I could find a plumber as good as Bruce is with A/C I would have it made.

I had my heating /cooling system totally replaced by 1st Choice. This included replacing all duct work and the entire heating /cooling unit. Their quality of workmanship and expertise was unsurpassed. I do not hesitate recommending this company to anyone.
