HVAC Company in Kendale Lakes, FL
Dalton Heating & Air handles AC repair, heat pump installation, and furnace repair in Kendale Lakes, FL with written pricing before any work starts and a full-year written guarantee on every repair. Homes here run their air conditioning hard from March through October, and the combination of salt air, humidity, and aging equipment means compressors, capacitors, and condensate systems fail more often than in drier parts of Florida. If your system is down or struggling, call (361) 306-9515 and a real person answers, day or night.
Why Kendale Lakes Homes Are Different
Kendale Lakes sits west of the Palmetto Expressway in unincorporated Miami-Dade County, built out primarily between the late 1960s and early 1980s. That housing stock matters. Many homes here have original ductwork that was sized for older, less efficient systems, and we regularly find return-air setups that fall short of what modern heat pumps and high-efficiency condensers need to move enough air. Humidity is the second factor. A system that cools but doesn’t pull moisture will leave a Kendale Lakes house feeling clammy at 74 degrees, and that’s almost always an airflow or refrigerant-charge problem, not a thermostat setting.
Neighborhoods like Kendale Lakes West, Westwood Lakes, and the streets running south of Kendall Drive toward Miller Drive have a mix of ranch homes, split-levels, and a growing number of updated two-story builds. The older single-story homes especially benefit from a hard look at duct condition, while the updated ones often have newer equipment that was installed without proper load calculations. Both situations change how we approach a repair or an install here, and both show up in our pricing conversations before any work begins.
Our Main Kendale Lakes Services
These are the three jobs Kendale Lakes homeowners call us about most. Each one has its own page with pricing, timelines, and what to expect on the day of the work.
AC Repair in Kendale Lakes
When an AC goes down in a Kendale Lakes summer, the heat inside a block-and-stucco home can climb fast. Most of our repair calls here involve failed capacitors, refrigerant leaks at the evaporator coil, clogged condensate lines, or contactors that have pitted from years of cycling. We carry common parts on the truck and can usually get a system running the same day it’s diagnosed. The repair is guaranteed in writing for a full year. If it fails in that time, we return at no charge. See what a typical repair costs on our AC Repair in Kendale Lakes page.

Heat Pump Installation in Kendale Lakes
Heat pumps work well for most Kendale Lakes homes because our winters rarely dip below 40, so the system heats and cools from a single unit without a furnace. The key to a good install here is sizing: a heat pump that’s too large will short-cycle and leave humidity in the air, and one that’s too small will struggle in August. We run load calculations on every installation, not rule-of-thumb guesses, and we put the full price in writing before equipment is ordered. Read more about how we handle a Heat Pump Installation in Kendale Lakes.

Furnace Repair in Kendale Lakes
Even in South Florida, December and January nights can drop into the 40s, and plenty of Kendale Lakes homes still run a gas or electric furnace paired with older split systems. Common failures we see are failed igniters, dirty flame sensors, and blower motors that seize after months of limited use. We stock igniters and sensors for the brands most common in this area, so many furnace repairs are done in one visit. Every furnace repair includes a written one-year guarantee. Details and pricing are on the Furnace Repair in Kendale Lakes page.

Pricing for HVAC Company in Kendale Lakes, FL
| Service | Typical range in Kendale Lakes |
|---|---|
| AC repair | $150 – $650 |
| Furnace repair | $150 – $700 |

| Tune-up | $80 – $200 |
What pushes a Kendale Lakes AC repair toward the high end of that range is usually the part involved: a variable-speed blower motor costs more than a capacitor, and a refrigerant leak at the evaporator coil is a bigger job than a clogged drain line. Age of the equipment matters too. Whatever the job, you get the price in writing before we start, and that number doesn’t move.
