“These guys are great! I called on Friday late morning and they arrived a few hours later to check out my air handler. The fan wouldn’t stop running when the ac was off. Problem solved within a few minutes, and they were out in under 30. Super fair price, no attempt to upcharge or sell me a new unit 😉 Don’t hesitate to call Smart Home Air and Heat!”

“The Smart Home team doesn’t let us down again! Shout out to the whole team. Came out for a tune up — vacuumed the unit, gave me a video and written report. Told me unit is running fine and no recommendations to do anything. Honesty is hard to come by these days but Chris and the team at Smart Home are 1 company that you can count on.”

“Chris responded on short notice and was quick, reliable, and straightforward. He helped with my AC refrigerant refill and was fair on pricing, without adding the kind of extra emergency costs some other companies charge, even on weekends. He also gave a 30-day warranty on his work. Very good experience overall. Thanks again Chris 🙏”

“My AC was the original from 1992 — finally gave out. Chris answered on a Sunday, drove over an hour to help. After realizing we needed a new unit, he quoted a 3-ton but after finding out our vent count said a 2.5-ton would work better — a lower cost. He didn’t have to be honest and lose money, BUT he was. These are your guys!”

“If I could give this company MORE than 5 stars, I would give them 10! The honesty, knowledge, and quality of service literally won me over. Chris called back within 5 minutes, came out, checked everything — and then refused to charge me because he said he really didn’t do anything. You don’t see service like this anymore!”

When your system fails at 2 AM in a Dommerich Hills ranch home, we answer the phone and dispatch immediately. Available 24/7, 365 days a year for all of Maitland's 32751 zip code.
We perform a Manual J load calculation on your Maitland home to determine the perfect system size. Historic homes, lakefront estates, and Maitland Center condos all get custom-sized solutions for maximum efficiency.
Maitland's chain of lakes — Maitland, Minnehaha, Lily, Sybelia, Catherine — creates relentless humidity. Our tune-ups include mold checks, duct inspections, and coil cleaning to keep your system fighting the moisture.
When cold fronts push through Central Florida, Maitland's older homes with poor insulation feel it fast. We repair and install heat pumps, furnaces, and electric heaters for homes of every era.
Five interconnected lakes surrounding Maitland mean humidity never lets up. We offer whole-home dehumidifiers, UV air purification, and professional duct cleaning to protect your family from mold and allergens.
Take control of your Maitland home's climate and slash your energy bill. We install and configure every major brand — and include a free WiFi thermostat with every new system installation.
Our headquarters is right here on Curry Ford Road in the 32825 zip code. When you call us, you're calling a family business based on Curry Ford Road — not a call center in another state.

Historic Home HVAC Experts
Maitland's 1940s–1960s historic core was built before central AC existed. Retrofitting ductwork into these homes requires expertise most companies don't have. We specialize in routing ducts through tight spaces, preserving architectural character, and solving the humidity problems that come with Maitland's chain of lakes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Maitland AC Repair Pricing — No Guesswork
We believe in transparency and education. Here are the most common questions we hear from our Maitland neighbors.
How much does AC repair cost in Maitland?
AC repair in Maitland typically costs between $150 and $800 for common issues like capacitor replacement, refrigerant leaks, or fan motor failures. At Smart Home Air and Heat, we provide a transparent quote before any work begins, and our diagnostic is a flat $89, same price day or night.
My Dommerich Hills home was built in the 1960s. Can you add central AC?
Absolutely. Many Dommerich Hills homes from the 1960s–1970s were built before central AC and had ductwork retrofitted later. We specialize in these exact installations — routing ductwork through tight attic spaces, closets, and soffits without destroying walls or ceilings. We've retrofitted hundreds of pre-AC Maitland homes over 30+ years.
Why does my Maitland home feel humid even with the AC running?
Maitland is surrounded by a chain of five interconnected lakes — Maitland, Minnehaha, Lily, Sybelia, and Catherine. This creates persistently high outdoor humidity that overwhelms many standard AC systems. We recommend a variable-speed air handler with enhanced dehumidification, or a whole-home dehumidifier for lakefront properties.
Do you handle both Orange County and Seminole County permits for Maitland?
Yes. Maitland straddles two counties — roughly 75% in Orange County and 25% in Seminole County. We handle all permitting for both jurisdictions seamlessly. You don't need to figure out which county your home is in — we already know.
How quickly can you get to my Maitland home?
We guarantee a technician at your Maitland door within 90 minutes of your call, or you receive $200 off your service. We serve every neighborhood in 32751 — Dommerich Hills, Lake Lily, Minnehaha Shores, Lake Sybelia, and beyond. Available 24/7 including nights, weekends, and holidays.
Is the heavy tree canopy in Maitland bad for my AC condenser?
Yes. Maitland's beautiful mature oaks and heavy tree canopy drop leaves, pollen, and debris directly onto outdoor condensers, restricting airflow and reducing efficiency. We recommend trimming at least 3 feet of clearance around your unit and scheduling coil cleanings twice a year to prevent buildup.
Do you offer financing for new AC installations in Maitland?
Yes. We offer flexible financing options for new AC installations throughout Maitland. We work with multiple lenders to provide plans that fit your budget, often with low monthly payments and promotional 0% APR periods. A new system typically costs between $6,900 and $15,900 depending on your home's size.
What kind of HVAC system do you recommend for Maitland lakefront homes?
For Maitland's lakefront estates on Lake Minnehaha, Lake Sybelia, and Lake Catherine, we recommend a high-efficiency variable-speed system with enhanced dehumidification. Many of these premium homes also benefit from whole-home dehumidifiers, smart thermostats, and multi-zone setups to handle the elevated humidity from lake proximity.
