AfterHVAC Company in Tice, FL
Tice homes run their air conditioning nearly year-round, and the old concrete-block houses here put unusual stress on cooling equipment.

Call (747) 966-3037 and a live person answers, day or night.
Why Tice Homes Are Different
Most Tice housing stock dates from the 1960s through the 1980s, and that age shows up in ways that change how an HVAC job should be approached. Ductwork often runs through unconditioned attics that climb past 140°F in the summer, which means the cooled air leaving the unit loses a meaningful share of its temperature before it reaches the bedrooms. We see this constantly: a homeowner keeps lowering the thermostat, the compressor keeps running, and the house still feels damp and warm. The fix is rarely just more refrigerant. It’s finding the leaking duct joints, the collapsed return, or the undersized plenum that the original builder never corrected.
Tice also has a large share of concrete-block-stucco homes with carport conversions. Those converted rooms were rarely accounted for in the original equipment sizing, so the system strains to condition square footage it was never designed to cover. Add the corrosive effect of salt-laden air that drifts inland from the Gulf, and a condenser coil here can fail years earlier than the same unit would in a drier inland market. And Hurricane Ian left a wave of storm-compromised systems, water-damaged air handlers, and corroded electrical connections that are now reaching the end of their shortened lives all at once.
Our Main Tice Services
Most Tice homeowners reach out to us for two things: a cooling system that won’t cool, or a replacement that finally matches the home’s real load. Here’s what each involves in this part of Lee County.
AC Repair in Tice
When an AC fails in Tice, it’s usually during the worst stretch of August, and it’s often caused by the same handful of local issues: a corroded contactor, a failed run capacitor in a unit that’s cycling constantly, or a refrigerant leak in a copper line set eating away at buried or wrapped joints. We diagnose the problem, give you a written price before we touch anything, and get the work done with the indoor areas protected. If you’re dealing with a system that runs all day and won’t hold temperature, AC Repair in Tice covers what we do in detail.
Furnace Repair in Tice
Florida gets a handful of genuinely cold nights each winter, and Tice’s older homes often rely on electric strip heat or older gas furnaces that sit idle for ten months, then get asked to perform. Dust buildup, corroded igniters, and failed safety switches are the common culprits. We’ll inspect what’s failed, explain the price in writing before starting, and leave the area around the furnace as clean as we found it. See Furnace Repair in Tice for the full picture.
AC Installation in Tice
Replacing an AC in Tice is not a one-size job. Many of these homes still run air handlers installed in the late 1970s, oversized for the original floor plan and now further mismatched by carport conversions. The fix that actually works is a Manual-J load calculation, proper duct sealing, and equipment sized to the home as it stands today. We install Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Goodman, and Rheem systems, among others, with a written fixed price and a set install date. Details are on AC Installation in Tice.

Yes. The 1960s and 1970s homes common here often run ducts through attics that exceed 140°F, and leaking joints lose a lot of cooled air before it reaches rooms. Duct sealing and proper sizing matter as much as the equipment itself. Call us for an honest evaluation and a written estimate.

What Tice Customers Say
"New system install. They protected the hallway floor all the way to the attic and vacuumed after. Worked quietly around my work calls. Not a trace left behind."
- Rosalind Okeke"AC repair in July. The tech laid a mat down by the indoor unit and wore booties through the house. Fixed it fast and left zero mess. Quiet and kind, good with our nervous dog too."
- Delia Frost"Good repair and a very tidy, respectful tech. The appointment window was wide and he came near the end of it, but he texted ahead. Work itself was clean and done right."
