What Delray Beach Homeowners Should Know About AC & HVAC
AC installation and replacement in Delray Beach requires a proper load calculation — an undersized unit short-cycles, an oversized unit creates humidity problems in a climate where controlling humidity matters as much as controlling temperature. We install Carrier, Trane, Lennox, and Daikin systems sized to Florida Building Code's Manual J methodology. Every installation in Palm Beach County is permitted and inspected.
Delray Beach Building Division. This coastal city has a historic downtown (Old School Square area) with preservation requirements for exterior changes in designated districts. The city spans from the ocean to western planned communities, with significant variation in home age and construction type.

AC & HVAC in Delray Beach — FAQ
Do AC installations require a permit in Delray Beach?
Yes — new AC installation and full system replacement require both a mechanical permit and an electrical permit in Palm Beach County. We handle all permits. An unpermitted AC installation creates issues with insurance claims and property resale.
What SEER2 rating do I need in Delray Beach, Florida?
Florida Building Code requires a minimum 15 SEER2 for new split system installations as of January 2023. We recommend 16–18 SEER2 for Palm Beach County homes — the energy savings in South Florida's 8–9 month cooling season are substantial.
How do I know what size AC I need in Delray Beach?
Sizing requires a Manual J load calculation — not a rule of thumb. South Florida's humidity, insulation quality, window type, and home orientation all affect the load. We run a proper load calculation before recommending any equipment size.
What is the $5,000 rule for AC replacement in Delray Beach?
The "$5,000 rule" is an industry guideline: if (age of AC in years) × (repair cost in dollars) exceeds $5,000, replacement typically makes more financial sense than repair. In South Florida, most AC systems run near-capacity for 8+ months per year, which accelerates wear.
