AfterHVAC Company in Hollywood, FL
Dalton Heating & Air handles HVAC repair, installation, and maintenance across Hollywood, FL, with written pricing on every job and a full-year guarantee on every repair. Hollywood’s mix of 1950s ranch homes, 1970s condo buildings, and newer east-side construction means no two systems fail the same way, and the salt air off the Atlantic takes a real toll on outdoor condenser coils. We stock parts for nine major brands on our trucks and answer the phone with a live person around the clock. Call (361) 306-9515 when your system quits, and we’ll give you a real arrival window and a price in writing before any work starts.
The three services Hollywood homeowners call us for most are AC repair, heat pump installation, and furnace repair. Each one has its own Hollywood page linked below, with local pricing, what the job involves, and how we handle it. This page is the overview: what makes Hollywood work different, what things cost here, and which neighborhoods we cover.
Why Hollywood Homes Are Different
Hollywood runs roughly six miles from the Intracoastal Waterway west toward the Turnpike, and the housing stock changes with every mile. East of Federal Highway, you find a lot of 1940s and 1950s bungalows with original ductwork that was sized for a different era and undersized electrical panels that complicate any new installation. The Lakes section and Emerald Hills have the city’s largest share of mid-century homes, many with flat or low-slope roofs that bake in the summer sun and push attic temperatures past 140 degrees. Ductwork in those attics loses a measurable amount of cooling before it ever reaches a register.
West of I-95, it’s a different story. Hollywood Hills and the neighborhoods around Taft Street are mostly newer construction with central air designed in from the start, but the systems are now hitting the 12-to-15-year mark where compressors and evaporator coils start to fail. Condo buildings along Hollywood Boulevard and the beach have their own challenges: shared chiller lines, rooftop condensers exposed to salt spray, and HOA rules that require specific permits and licensed contractors before any equipment gets touched. We deal with those requirements on a regular basis, and we’ll tell you up front what your building needs before a single part gets ordered.
Our Main Hollywood Services
Hollywood residents call us most often for AC repair in the summer months, with heat pump installation and furnace repair following close behind as systems age out. Here’s what each of those jobs actually involves in this city.
AC Repair in Hollywood
A failed air conditioner in Hollywood during August isn’t a scheduling inconvenience. It’s a health issue. The humidity here pushes indoor temperatures into the high 80s within hours of a system failure, and older residents and small children feel it first. Most of our Hollywood AC repair calls come down to one of four things: a failed capacitor, a refrigerant leak at a braze joint, a seized condenser fan motor, or a clogged evaporator coil. We diagnose the exact cause, put the repair price in writing before touching a tool, and guarantee the work for a full year. If the same repair fails inside that year, we come back at no charge. That’s The Garrison Standard. See the full breakdown on our AC Repair in Hollywood page.
Heat Pump Installation in Hollywood
Heat pumps make more sense in Hollywood than most Florida cities because they handle both cooling and the occasional cold snap without a separate furnace. Many 1970s and 1980s homes in the 33020 and 33021 ZIP codes still run on original electric strip heat, which costs a fortune to operate on the rare nights temperatures dip into the 40s. A properly sized heat pump handles that job for a fraction of the operating cost. We factory-train on Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, York, Daikin, Bryant, and American Standard heat pump systems, and we’ll give you a load calculation and a fixed price in writing before any equipment gets ordered. Details are on the Heat Pump Installation in Hollywood page.
Furnace Repair in Hollywood
Furnaces in Hollywood tend to fail at the worst possible moment, which is usually the first genuinely cold night of the year, when systems that have sat idle for ten months get asked to run all night. The good news is that most furnace repairs are straightforward once diagnosed: an igniter, a flame sensor, a gas valve, or a blower motor. Most furnace repairs in Hollywood run $150 to $450 depending on the part, and we carry the common ones on the truck so we’re not waiting on a supply house when your house is cold. Every repair gets a written guarantee for a full year. Read more on the Furnace Repair in Hollywood page.

Brands We Service in Hollywood
Our Hollywood trucks carry OEM and aftermarket parts for the brands we see most in this market: Goodman, Rheem, York, and Daikin, along with the bigger names like Carrier and Trane. When we don’t have a part on hand, our supply relationships usually get it to us same-day or next morning.
Pricing for HVAC Company in Hollywood, FL
| Service | Typical range in Hollywood |
|---|---|
| AC repair | $150 – $650 |
| Furnace repair | $150 – $700 |
| AC installation | $3,500 – $7,500 |
| Tune-up | $80 – $200 |
The biggest factors that push a Hollywood repair toward the upper end of those ranges are age of the equipment, accessibility of the unit, and whether salt corrosion has already weakened multiple components. If we open the panel and find three failing parts instead of one, the quote reflects that reality, in writing, before we proceed. You’ll never get a “revised” price after the work is done. That’s the point of The Garrison Standard, and it applies to every job in Hollywood without exception.
