Southern Air Conditioning Co

What this record tells you

Southern Air Conditioning Co holds Florida licence CAC057423, 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 1997, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 12% of the 821 active hvac & ac repair licences based in the West Palm Beach area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2016. That is 29 years of continuous licensure.

Southern Air Conditioning Co is one of 57 active hvac & ac repair licences registered to an address in Loxahatchee, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

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.
