Finally found a company to take care of our office A/C! They were quick to respond, had the technical know-how to diagnose our issues and practical enough to present several options so we could find the balance between our budget and our service needs. They made sure we understood what they were doing and gave us a fair price. We have switched to Air Necessity for our maintenance plan. Smart choice!

We have been using Air Necessity for our bi annual service for several years. I had the pleasure of meeting Fabian for the first time for our service today. Hands down, Fabian was the best service technician that performed my bi annual service. Fabian was very knowledgeable & very thorough in the entire process for servicing & maintaining our indoor air handler and our outdoor condenser.
Thank you Fabian for proving a great customer experience today!

OMG! I don't know where to begin. When the Trane "wreck" we installed when we built in 2014 finally died completely, we had a now defunct company called Temperature Pro install a new Bosch heat pump - 3 years ago. I kept thinking I was smelling mold and we actually had allergy shots for mold for 3 years! I called Air Necessity and they had technicians out as soon as we were home from vacation - a week later. The drain pipes had been installed horizontally so no slope for drainage of condensation. Passed city inspection twice but we had massive amounts of mold on the wet air handler. They removed the entire unit, cleaned it, reinstalled it higher for drainage slope - and the heating would not work. Also the drain pan was cracked. The owner of the company actually drove to Orlando to pick up the new pan, herself - that day - Friday. They were willing to work Friday night to reinstall but we advised them to enjoy the weekend. They arrived about 8 AM Monday and were on the phone with Bosch for hours as the Nest thermostat installed by Temperature Pro was never hooked up correctly. Air Necessity workers are loyal and truly motivated to do good work. Rare these days. We would never call anyone else.

Our Bosch heat pump was installed 3 years ago by Temperature Pro who went out of business October 2024. I have been smelling a moldy smell and called Air Necessity. They came with a week, on time, and Daniel knew exactly the problem right away. The installation was bad so the condensed water just sat in the pipes and did not drain. The whole thing was full of mold and slime. He cleaned it up today and will come back next week to completely deinstall, raise the unit so that it will drain in the future and put it back together.

After getting my A/C issue diagnosed, I spoke with Sarah over the phone. She was extremely knowledgeable and personable as she helped me understand the process of replacing my 30-yr old system. She arranged a free estimate. The technician was ON TIME, early actually, in the middle of a thunderstorm! I tremendously appreciate companies like Air Necessity Heating and Cooling and their work ethic as they strive to meet the needs of their customers and potential customers.

As a referral from my water company, Air Necessity was able to fit me in the same day and help get the A/C cooling again with a new capacitor. Tech was knowledgeable and efficient. Would definitely 👍 recommend and use them again.

Dan and Faye and Crew are the Best and professional and did a awesome job on my ac replacement!! They even brought a portable ac unit into the house while they were working on replacing my system so my family stayed cool at night until it was done !! Took 2 days to do a total overhaul from a old system that was there since 1998 so we upgraded to a brand new 4 ton system and the house will freeze you out if you want it to now !! Everything went smoothly and we are very happy from start to finish ! I Highly recommend them for all ac repairs and needs ..Thanks again Steve Tyrrell

It was Sunday, summer was approaching, and our AC unit would not turn on. The interior temperature reached 80° but a Google search showed us who to call. Air Necessity.
Jeremy arrived within 1 hour like a knight in shining armor (his uniform) upon his noble steed (his work van). He had taken care of the issue, and more, in less than 1 hour. He not only diagnosed and fixed the issue, but he then explained helpful tips and tricks to ensuring the longevity of our exterior and interior units. He departed after many thanks and they lived happily ever after.
My wife and I couldn't recommend this company, and Jeremy, enough. 10/10 experience.

We have been wanting to find a reputable air-conditioning company in SWFL. I believe we have found that with Bare Necessity! Mike came and did a very thorough inspection of all three of our air conditioners. He took pictures and videos as he inspected each unit and sat down with me several times to show me what he was finding. He made several recommendations, letting me know which things were necessary, while other things could wait to be fixed. Faye, the owner, called me just as Mike was leaving and made sure I didn’t have any other questions and asked if there was anything else they could do at that time. There are not many companies that do such a thorough job. I learned a lot through this whole process! I am so glad to have finally found an AC company that generally cares, is respectful, and honest.

The service was timely
All 3 technicians that came to our home were very polite and courteous. They worked very hard all day. They were very respectful of our home and furnishings. My only issue was they shut the breaker off to the furnace and did not turn it back on. The house got very warm and my husband figured out what the issue was and turned it back on. The other thing was we wanted to see the before and after pictures of the vents to see what all was cleaned out. We were told at the estimate we would see this but they left and did not offer this. I forgot to ask them to show us before they left.
Thanks so much

Firstly the office staff at Air Necessity is amazing. The woman we spoke with gave us a ton of information and gave us so much time in explaining everything to us and listening to us. We called on Wednesday and she got us an appointment for Mike to come out and look over everything Friday - he showed up on time and again was so nice and went over everything in extreme detail with us sent us an estimate the very next day and we decided to schedule the appointment based off of just the quality of their customer service and the time they took to make sure we understood what we were getting done. We scheduled the appointment for Monday 12.11.23 and Corey and Kenneth showed up on time and ready to work. They took time to go over everything with us before they started and man they worked HARD all day long to get the job done. They were so polite and friendly - and took great care of not only our systems issues - but were very careful to avoid any mishaps with all of my obnoxious Christmas stuff that is everywhere right now. Corey even went above and beyond to clean the dust off of the ceiling fans when that was not something he needed to do. We will for sure be using Air Necessity for all of our future Heating and Cooling needs and I 100/10 recommend them if you are looking for quality service.
