Essential Systems Inc

What this record tells you

Essential Systems Inc holds Florida licence CAC1816467, 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 2010, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 36% 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 16 years of continuous licensure.

Essential Systems Inc is one of 45 active hvac & ac repair licences registered to an address in Delray Beach, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Justin Reese Bradford additionally holds 2 other active Florida licences 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.
