Ard Heating & Air Inc

What this record tells you

Ard Heating & Air Inc holds Florida licence RA0015671, a RA classification which authorises work as a certified/registered air conditioning or mechanical contractor. An "R" prefix means the licence is registered, which limits work to the local jurisdictions that accepted it rather than the whole state.

This licence was first issued in 2007, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 33% of the 256 active hvac & ac repair licences based in the Pensacola area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2015. That is 19 years of continuous licensure.

Ard Heating & Air Inc is one of 111 active hvac & ac repair licences registered to an address in Pensacola, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

The licence is recorded as expiring on 08/31/2027. 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.
