New HVAC in Fort Lauderdale.
Broward's coastal breeze helps — but the humidity doesn't. Variable-speed heat pumps dehumidify at low load instead of short-cycling, so the intake weighs airflow, room balance, and outdoor exposure before a path is recommended. Our crew is routed to Broward County by ZIP — DBPR-certified, insured, and permitted through the local authority.
What we install in Fort Lauderdale.
Heat pumps for FL humidity.
Modern heat pumps handle Florida's year-round humidity load better than straight-cool systems. We size every unit with Manual J — no tonnage guessing.
Variable-speed AC for hot summers.
South Florida summers demand variable-speed compressors that modulate instead of cycling hard. Min SEER2 requirement: 16 SEER2.
Hurricane-grade install standards.
Every outdoor unit is mounted and anchored to Florida wind-load code. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and document it.
A licensed crew assigned by county.
Broward's mix of 1960s ranch homes, 1990s two-stories, and 2020s new construction gives us a full installation playbook. Our techs have replaced ductwork buried in 6 decades of insulation and mounted modern inverters on new-build pads the same week.
Every install in BrowardCounty runs through a DBPR-certified contractor routed by ZIP. License numbers are shared at purchase — not after. You see who's coming before any payment is made.

What matters only in Fort Lauderdale.
Permit in Fort Lauderdale
5–8 business days from pull to final inspection (HOA-governed communities in Parkland / Coral Springs / Weston often add 1–2 weeks for ARB review). Pulled with City of Fort Lauderdale Building Services (or the relevant municipality for Hollywood, Pompano Beach, Plantation, etc. — Broward has 31 separate municipalities and permit processes vary).
Utility — FPL
FPL (Florida Power & Light) may offer incentives on qualifying high-efficiency installs. Eligibility is reviewed after intake and tied to the saved customer record.
Ductwork in Fort Lauderdale
Broward is three different ductwork problems depending on the decade. 1960s ranch homes in central Fort Lauderdale and Plantation have original unconditioned-attic flex that's been baked for 60 Florida summers — the inner liner separates from the outer jacket and the R-value halves. 1990s two-stories in Weston and Coral Springs have trunk-and-branch systems where the supply plenum gasket has failed; you lose 10–20% of conditioned air into the attic before it reaches a register. New-construction Parkland has clean metal trunks, but over-sized for the last builder's Manual J — we often downsize the condenser rather than replacing ducts.
Florida rebates available in Fort Lauderdale.
Rebate eligibility in Fort Lauderdale depends on your utility territory, equipment tier, and address-level program availability. FPL (Florida Power & Light) territory covers most of Broward County, but program terms change — we check actual eligibility after your intake is saved.
We won't advertise a rebate number before we know your home. Once the intake is complete, the install desk reviews what's actually available for your ZIP, equipment path, and purchase tier.

LOW INTEGRITY: They are using AI Generated replies to Google Reviews. No Human contact at all. 3 Weeks. UPDATE (June 17, 2026): Since posting this review, I received a public response from the President, George McPherson, acknowledging the "unacceptable" billing error and promising to make it right. However, despite this public statement, no one from Abraham AC has reached out to me. This response appears to be a performative attempt to salvage their reputation rather than a genuine effort to resolve a documented case of deceptive billing.I am still waiting for an honest billing review. I strongly advise others to look elsewhere for their HVAC needs. Lowering to 1 star. --Original Review Text Below--- BUYER BEWARE. I am writing this to share my recent experience with Abraham AC... I'd ordinarily give a 1 star for what happened to me yesterday however I'm giving 2 stars considering a possible miscommunication on part of Abraham AC. I worked with this company in the past, and it did build up a measureable amount of trust, so I and decided to give them a first call when I needed a minor part replacement on my outdoor A/C unit. They disclosed a $99 diagnostic fee for showing up. OK. Tech arrived and in under 10 minutes brings the bad part (capacitor) to me and says he found the problem. Thinking $99 is a bit high for 10 minutes of work; I tell myself; "Hey, a deal is a deal." Tech started talking about 3 different opptions to replace a part for $15-$50. All over $500 and one even over $1000. I declined all "offers"... Again... Tech interjects a maintenance plan and revisits talk about a "kick start kit," ....which I again decline, and politely asked for a simple replacement of my $50 (high) capacitor specifically stating: "No Kick Start Kits and no maintenance agreements." Tech returns in 10 Minutes.. "Problem Fixed" and generates a "verbal bill" of $564. Asked for an invoice and tech politely explains his system will generate and email an invoice to me. I live in FL, my A/C was already off for hours, and I'm not lieing, I'd likely pay $1000 to get out of the Oven. So I paid in cash on the spot anticipating an invoice. Upon receipt of the invoice I see the "Kick Start Kit" being billed... rather than a simple part replacement. When I learned the part can be bought for as little as $15 I decided to write this post. I hope this review encourages the company to address their transparency and billing integrity.

Best AC company we’ve ever dealt with. Fair, honest, reliable and professional. Guys were great and got the job done without incident. They cleaned up after themselves and hauled away the junk. They’re on time and if they’re running late, you get the courtesy of a text or phone call. Don’t hesitate.. hire these guys.

Fort Lauderdale homeowners ask us first.
When do I see AC quote details for my Fort Lauderdale home?
After the intake is saved. RITA starts with your Fort Lauderdale ZIP, home facts, equipment clues, comfort goals, and install constraints so the quote path belongs to an actual customer and home record instead of a public calculator page. Licensed crews still verify final fit, code requirements, and field conditions before install.
How fast can you install a new HVAC system in Fort Lauderdale?
Many Fort Lauderdale installs can move quickly once the intake, crew review, equipment path, permit, and schedule are confirmed. Straightforward replacements are usually faster than projects with ductwork, electrical, access, HOA, or specialty-equipment constraints.
What size HVAC do I need for a Fort Lauderdale home?
Size depends on your home's square footage, insulation, orientation, and ductwork — not a "1 ton per 500 sqft" rule of thumb. Fort Lauderdale's South Florida climate zone averages high humidity and long cooling seasons, so we run a real Manual J load calculation on every job and typically land 0.5 ton smaller than what walk-in contractors quote — which is exactly what keeps your house comfortable instead of clammy.
Are NewHVACDeals installers licensed in Broward County?
NewHVACDeals LLC holds Florida DBPR certifications CAC1822797 (Class A Air Conditioning Contractor) and CFC050548 (Plumbing Contractor). The intake and confirmation path identifies the operating install desk or partner contractor for the actual address before booking, and work that requires a permit is handled by a properly licensed and insured crew. Verify CAC1822797 and CFC050548 on the DBPR public licensee search at myfloridalicense.com.
Which Fort Lauderdale neighborhoods do you service?
We check serviceability by ZIP first across Broward County and nearby Hollywood, Pompano Beach, Plantation, Sunrise, and more. Anchor ZIPs we see often include 33301, 33304, 33308. If your ZIP is not listed on /ac-installation, call us at (813) 217-3600 and we will confirm coverage before the quote path is shown.
Who handles permits and inspection for an AC replacement in Fort Lauderdale?
The install desk flags the permit path before booking and coordinates with City of Fort Lauderdale Building Services (or the relevant municipality for Hollywood, Pompano Beach, Plantation, etc. — Broward has 31 separate municipalities and permit processes vary) when the saved address and final scope require it. In Fort Lauderdale, that means planning around 5–8 business days from pull to final inspection (HOA-governed communities in Parkland / Coral Springs / Weston often add 1–2 weeks for ARB review) where the address and scope require it. The homeowner should not have to guess which municipality, county office, HOA, or condo association has to approve the work before the crew arrives.
Can utility incentives apply to a Fort Lauderdale AC replacement?
FPL (Florida Power & Light) eligibility is reviewed after the intake is saved because incentive rules depend on the address, equipment match, efficiency rating, documentation, and installation scope. Public pages can explain the review process, but the actual eligibility path belongs to the saved customer and home record.
How do I know whether to repair or replace an older AC in Fort Lauderdale?
The decision starts with age, refrigerant type, comfort complaints, repair history, humidity control, duct condition, and whether the outdoor unit is surviving Florida runtime and weather exposure. For Fort Lauderdale, that includes this local ductwork reality: Broward is three different ductwork problems depending on the decade. 1960s ranch homes in central Fort Lauderdale and Plantation have original unconditioned-attic flex that's been baked for 60 Florida summers — the inner liner separates from the outer jacket and the R-value halves. 1990s two-stories in Weston and Coral Springs have trunk-and-branch systems where the supply plenum gasket has failed; you lose 10–20% of conditioned air into the attic before it reaches a register. New-construction Parkland has clean metal trunks, but over-sized for the last builder's Manual J — we often downsize the condenser rather than replacing ducts. RITA captures those clues first so the install desk can separate a simple repair conversation from a replacement path that actually fits the home.
