Tropical Air Systems Inc

What this record tells you

Tropical Air Systems Inc holds Florida licence CAC041147, a CAC classification which authorises work as a certified/registered air conditioning or mechanical contractor. A "C" prefix means the licence is certified — valid anywhere in Florida.

This licence was first issued in 1987, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 4% of the 1,128 active hvac & ac repair licences based in the Fort Lauderdale area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2018. That is 39 years of continuous licensure.

Tropical Air Systems Inc is one of 98 active hvac & ac repair licences registered to an address in Coral Springs, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Scott Robert Thomas additionally holds 1 other active Florida licence in our records, which can indicate a contractor qualified across more than one trade or entity.

The licence is recorded as expiring on 08/31/2028. Florida licences renew on a fixed cycle, and a licence that is not renewed moves to delinquent status — which is why the expiry date matters if you are planning work close to that date. Confirm the current status on the state portal before signing a contract.
