Rex Houston Air Conditioning & Refrigeration Inc

What this record tells you

Rex Houston Air Conditioning & Refrigeration Inc holds Florida licence RA13067300, 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 2005, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 34% of the 73 active hvac & ac repair licences based in the Key West & The Keys area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2010. That is 21 years of continuous licensure.

Rex Houston Air Conditioning & Refrigeration Inc is one of 11 active hvac & ac repair licences registered to an address in Tavernier, 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.
