"Brian was professional, prepared, and thorough. He took his time to figure out the mistake made previously in programming the thermostat incorrectly. That thorough investigation and the correction alone made saved hundreds of dollars in electricity usage. He cleaned up, tightened, replaced, and repaired whatever was done poorly by another technician. And all this was done with a smile, good humor, and a reasonable price! He gets an A++!"

I’m a second-generation HVAC pro who grew up working for my dad back in Oklahoma. Now based in Navarre, I started Flippy’s Heat and Air to bring honest, fast, and reliable service to families across Santa Rosa County. We specialize in residential heating and cooling with upfront pricing, no surprises, and a “no breakdown guarantee” on tune-ups. As part of our Grand Opening, we’re waiving the standard $89 trip fee — just our way of saying thanks for giving us a shot. At Flippy’s, we’re flipping the script on HVAC service — one happy customer at a time.

"Austin is fabulous! Knows his stuff, very professional and cares about people. He is very smart and has always responded to my calls the same day. He identifies and fixes what needs repair quickly. Has always given me military discount and has fair prices for his work. You will not be dissatisfied with him. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking heating and/or AC repair. He is the best! You will not be disappointed and will probably put him on your speed dial. "

FAQs for central a/c installation projects in Gulf Breeze, FL

If you’re replacing an old AC system with a new unit, you can usually clean and repair the old ductwork without having to conduct a full replacement. Cleaning HVAC ducts typically costs around $400, while repairs range from $200 to $1,000. In contrast, installing new ductwork can range from $1,000 to $5,000, making it far more costly than cleaning or fixing existing ducts. HVAC installation costs an average of $7,000 to replace a full system, so staying on top of maintenance and repairs is important.

AC cost efficiency depends on the size of your space and your long-term plans for your home. If you only need to cool a small area, a portable AC unit has a low upfront cost. Heat pumps are typically the most cost-effective option if you want to cool an entire home or improve the resale value. They provide strong cooling while being energy-efficient, which saves you money on your utility bills compared to most other AC types.

Installing a central AC unit typically takes four to eight hours if your home already has ductwork in place. However, if new ductwork needs to be installed, this can add another one to two days of labor to your project.
