Technician Justin Coates went above and beyond servicing my two AC units. I'm in Florida, one of the units is in the attic, poor guy. He was professional, knowledgeable and VERY thorough. I also like that Southern Air reminds me when service is due. Update: today 9/15/2026, "Jamar Witt" came out, determined that the duct in the ATTIC had collapsed and replaced it. NOT an easy task in a 100+° attic in a limited space! He also replaced a weak capacitor that was still under warranty. Knowledgeable, professional, and personable. Highly recommend Southern Air. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

Our technician, Albert, turned what could have been a profitable moment for his company, but not a good choice for us, in regard to fixing a mini split, into a moment if integrity. I appreciated his candidness especially in light of other AC companies trying to upsell to us. Thank you, Albert and Southern Air!

Dylan showed up quickly after my requesting service, within 90 minutes he was here. He was friendly, knowledgeable and very detailed in his services. He knew exactly what my problem was, and told me about some other issues I have and offered me a maintenance plan which ultimately lowered my bill for services. Kudos to Dylan Pacetti, we are very thankful for your time and attention. Had a second visit today 09/09/26 with Dyaln Pacetti and Southern Air. Want to give a huge shout out to Dylan Pacetti at Southern Air... He is a great technician, very knowledgeable, polite and does excellent work. Southern Air is a great company if you need service with your heating or air. Great customer service, Robert, the service manager and everyone in the office are fantastic, quick callbacks and even same or next day service on most calls. The prices are very good, and they have an excellent maintenance plan, very affordable. If you need any kind of air or heat services, give them a call.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Susan, for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad our fast response and professionalism made the visit smooth, and that Dylan was able to pinpoint the issue, walk you through the findings, and help reduce your overall cost with a maintenance option. If you’d like, please call us anytime to schedule seasonal tune-ups or set up ongoing service.
