“Chris is an absolute gem. If you are looking for someone knowledgeable and very reasonably priced he is the man. He gave us so much info over the phone that he easily solved my problem — after hours, on a Friday. He was all the way in east Orlando and still provided everything we needed. Chris you are a blessing.”

“I am straight up flabbergasted how nice and personable Chris was. He was able to diagnose the issue, provide a quick fix for tonight, and gave us our options going forward. If you are hunting around for a company to help you with your AC issues, trust me — this company cares about the folks they’re helping.”

“Called smart home for a service inspection in Orlando. Chris showed up on time and was very polite. He put job links on my stream and explained everything to me. I had another company try to sell me a new Evan coil but Chris and his testing show that was not the problem. He is very honest. I recommend him”

“We came home to find our AC not cooling and the house over 80 degrees. We reached out to Smart Home at midnight and he was here in 40 minutes. Knew exactly what the issue was. Extremely knowledgeable, honest from the beginning. I would recommend 100% and definitely use him anytime my AC has issues.”

“Chris was able to help us out of a bind when we thought we would be out of AC for a few days. He was fast to respond, showed up with a great attitude, walked us through where he believed the problem was, and he was spot on. We will be sure to call Smart Home Air and Heat for any future issues!”

“Chris gave me the best price out of 8 estimates. He was the only one who took the time to explain things instead of trying to sell me a unit that benefits him. Even after I accepted his offer he threw in extras that just made the deal even better. Professional and a real nice guy to boot.”

“They are AWESOME!! They go above and beyond with their customer service. Very professional and polite. My AC decided to stop working on a weekend when it’s 97 degrees. They said no problem and fixed it right away. I couldn’t be happier! We will only be using this company for now on!”

“I never heard of a company that came out and serviced our home at 1:30am. Me and my family came home to find our home feeling like a furnace. Chris answered, came out within 30 minutes, fixed the problem, and the cost was beyond fair. Hands down the best HVAC company in Orlando.”

“There’s so many great things to say about this company and its staff. Chris is a person of integrity and his staff worked very hard to make sure our new AC was installed and working before they left. I would hire this company again. If I could I would give them 10 gold stars.”

"Bought the unit last year at a great price and it has been great. As a Canadian I have a high expectation of after sales customer service and I have to say Chris and Smart Home Air & Heat has surpassed that expectation. Asked if owed anything and he said no and was not expecting this. In my opinion, he did more than the warranty would have covered"

What do Waterford Lakes residents ask about AC repair?

Answers to the most common questions we get from homeowners in the 32828 zip code.

01
How quickly can you respond to an AC emergency in Waterford Lakes?
Smart Home Air and Heat offers same-day service for Waterford Lakes (32828) and responds to emergency calls 24/7 — including weekends and holidays with no extra fees. Our trucks are stocked with the most common parts for all major HVAC brands, so most Waterford Lakes repairs are completed in a single visit. Call (407) 465-7777 any time.
02
Do you charge extra for weekend or after-hours service in Waterford Lakes?
No. Smart Home Air and Heat charges the same flat-rate pricing 24/7 — no after-hours fees, no weekend surcharges, no holiday premiums. The price you're quoted is the price you pay, regardless of when your Waterford Lakes AC breaks down. This is one of the most common complaints we hear from homeowners who've used other companies.
03
What HVAC brands do you service in Waterford Lakes?
We service all major HVAC brands in Waterford Lakes including Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, Daikin, York, American Standard, Bryant, and Ruud. Our NATE-certified technicians carry parts for all major brands on every service truck, which means faster repairs and fewer return visits for Waterford Lakes homeowners.
04
How much does AC repair typically cost in Waterford Lakes?
AC repair costs in Waterford Lakes (32828) typically range from $150 to $600 for most common repairs. A capacitor replacement runs $150–$250, a contactor replacement $175–$275, a refrigerant recharge $250–$500 depending on refrigerant type, and a blower motor replacement $300–$600. Smart Home Air and Heat waives the diagnostic fee with any completed repair, and all pricing is flat-rate — no surprises after the work starts.
05
What size AC system does my Waterford Lakes home need?
The correct AC size for your Waterford Lakes home depends on far more than square footage — ceiling height, insulation quality, window count and orientation, and local climate data all factor in. Smart Home Air and Heat performs a Manual J load calculation on every new installation in Waterford Lakes. This ensures your new system is sized precisely — not oversized (which causes humidity problems) or undersized (which causes the system to run constantly and wear out early).
06
How often should Waterford Lakes homeowners schedule HVAC maintenance?
Waterford Lakes homeowners should schedule HVAC maintenance twice per year — once in spring before the cooling season and once in fall before the heating season. Florida's climate is especially demanding on HVAC equipment because systems run nearly year-round. Bi-annual maintenance keeps your system running at peak efficiency, extends its lifespan, and catches small problems before they become expensive failures. Smart Home Air and Heat's maintenance plans start at $89 per visit.
07
What warranty do you offer on new AC installations in Waterford Lakes?
Smart Home Air and Heat backs every new AC installation in Waterford Lakes with a 10-year warranty covering parts, labor, and the compressor. This is one of the strongest warranties available in the Orlando market. Every installation also includes a free smart thermostat with professional WiFi setup, and we offer flexible financing with 0% APR promotional periods for qualified homeowners.
08
Why is my electric bill so high in my Waterford Lakes home?
High electric bills in Waterford Lakes homes are most commonly caused by: an aging HVAC system running at reduced efficiency (systems lose about 5% efficiency per year after age 10), duct leaks (studies show 20–30% of conditioned air escapes through leaky ducts in Florida homes), an incorrectly sized system that short-cycles or runs constantly, or a dirty air filter restricting airflow. Smart Home Air and Heat offers a free energy efficiency assessment with every service call in Waterford Lakes.

Waterford Lakes Homeowner FAQs

How much does AC repair cost in Waterford Lakes 32826?

AC repair in Waterford Lakes typically costs $150–$800 depending on the issue. Capacitor replacement runs $150–$300, refrigerant recharge $200–$450, and compressor repairs $799–$1,499. We provide upfront pricing before any work starts — no hidden fees, no surprises. Call (407) 465-7777.

What is the fastest AC repair company near Waterford Lakes Town Center?

Smart Home Air and Heat guarantees a licensed technician at your door within 90 minutes anywhere near Waterford Lakes Town Center and the Waterford Lakes area — or you get $200 off. We’re local, not a call center. Available 24/7 including nights, weekends, and holidays with zero after-hours fees.

Do you service homes near Alafaya Trail, Eastwood, and Corner Lakes?

Yes. We service every home and business in Waterford Lakes (32826) and surrounding areas including Alafaya Trail, Eastwood, and Corner Lakes. Our techs know every street in this area. Same-day service, 90-minute arrival guaranteed.

Is it worth repairing my AC or should I replace it?

If your system is under 10 years old, repair usually makes sense. Systems 12–15+ years old in Florida with major failures are usually better replaced. The federal 25C tax credit ended December 31, 2025, so we price replacements on current utility and manufacturer rebates instead. We give honest assessments and never push replacement if repair will work.
