Matthew Carlson
We only call Gulf Coast Air Systems due to their impeccable service. We did get a few estimates to compare pricing prior to our new A/C and heating system replacement. Randy gave us a price that no one else even compared to for a quality unit. Angel and his crew were Amazing. They were on time and so respectful of our condo. There is a reason for all 5-star reviews and this company has definitely earned their reputation for perfection. We have recommended them to anyone we know that has A/C, heating issues.
Bruce Sprague
If you have to take the plunge for a whole new system, trust this company to do it! The sales rep was timely, friendly and thorough. We felt good about signing the contract. The installation was hard work because of access issues but the crew never complained and worked so hard. They were polite and professional and cleaned up after they were finished. Great overall experience!
Becky Cherry
This is the best HVAC company around. I had so many problems with other companies before finding Gulf Coast. The experience from start to finish with them was a breathe of fresh air for me. Debi in the office was my 1st point of contact & she provided amazing customer service. Her knowledge and prompt follow ups were much appreciated. My installers for my warranty repair work were Peter & Ronnie. They were prompt, knowledgeable, friendly and cleaned up after themselves. The cost was fair & market value unlike 3 other companies I researched. I will be a Gulf Coast customer for life now. If you don’t want to shop around like I did then just go with Gulf Coast cause I can promise you a fair price with prompt knowledgeable service. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Gulf Coast!
Brian Torino
This is one of the best companies I have ever dealt with. Brandon was very thorough and diligent and very good at communicating what he was doing and recommending what I should do to get the most out of my air conditioner. I was very impressed by his knowledge and professionalism. I plan on requesting him for my next maintenance in 6 months. I am very fortunate to have found this company!

Velisa Davis
This is one of the best companies i have ever dealt with, when a top official calls you to help, this is a 5 star company. There engineer's are impeccable, polite and professional. Their price was very competitive for miles. Their only concern was getting my house up and running as quick as possible. Also used A/C companies many times in Florida over the years, trust me Gulf Coast is the best, glad to have found them.
david miles
Send me the same Tech you sent last week. Very good at what he does.Never been disappointed with any Gulf Coast Techs. Recommend this company all the time.
Robert Silmser
Gulf Coast Air Systems are always quickly responsive to my calls for service. They are very profession and fix the problem. They are also very good with their routine maintenance. I always recommend to my friends.
Bill Cuchlinski
Came immediately to fix an issue. Highly recommend Brandon as a service technician. Installation of new system last year was very professional and fairly priced Have been a satisfied customer for over 30 years in three homes
ann sofia
Peter was very considerate, professional and wanted to get my heat fix since it’s so cold. I appreciate you guys. 10 stars if I could.
Veronica Brocksmith
Chad was awesome! So knowledgeable and professional! He answered all my AC questions and explained everything and even gave me a couple of tips! I am so glad I switched to your company!
Susan R
Our A/C stopped working and even though it was later in the day, Brandon was here a couple of hours later. He was professional and friendly. He was able to troubleshoot and fix our problem so we could sleep that night in nice cold air!

Ronnie and Joel completely re-ducted one of our units to better cool our upstairs. It was hard work in the attic and took most of a day. The result was great. No more freezing the first floor to cool the 2nd floor in the heat of summer. Saved us money and was well worth the reasonable labor costs. They’re our go-to AC company. Professional staff (and they clean up after the job).
Richard Tschantz
We had our air go out in October of 2020. We called Gulf Coast Air and they were quick to respond and assess our situation. They brought us a portable unit to use while they replaced our unit. They were very professional and friendly. We called them back when we decided to have our duct work replaced. Definitely would recommend Gulf Coast Air!
Dee Vega
The work was exceptional and thorough! Very kind and friendly. Kept me informed about what they were doing throughout the installation. Even showed me some easy maintenance tips afterwards. Would definitely recommend Gulf Coast Air!
Alan Pullaro
I called after hours for my parents AC unit that was not cooling. Within minutes I received a callback to let me know I would go on the schedule first thing in the am. My day started with the most pleasant conversation with Mr. Kenneth. He assured me that he would be at my parents house within the hour, throughout his time at the house, he called me to give me routine updates (since I could not be there), which I greatly appreciated! He not only gave me options, HE looked into the warranty information on the unit. To have him go that extra mile for me and not burdening my parents with that was another added relief! He got the parts ordered and replaced within a few hours. We were truly blessed to have Kenneth service our unit. And Gulf Coast Air Systems is equally blessed to have such a dedicated and pleasant person on their team. I hope to not have any other AC issues, but I will definitely use GULF COAST AIR again and I will recommend them to anyone who needs a reputable and relatable organization. Mr. Kenneth ROCKS!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Helen Rivera
Great service. Called at 7:35am new years day and the technician was on site before 9am. Simple fix, loose wire. Very professional, obviously honest as he could have said it was anything. I only use these guys for ac service. You should too.
John Burgett
Great, responsive, and trustworthy!Recently installed a new system and had some issue that turned out to be related to a faulty thermostat from the manufacturer. They never gave up and were diligent in their resolving the issue - Won't use anybody else for heating and cooling!Great organization!
Pour Yorick
We had Gulf Coast Air come out for a second opinion on our non-functioning AC, after another company told us our compressor had failed and we either needed a new compressor (over $1500) or an entire new unit (almost $7K). Alvin and John came out and very thoroughly inspected our system. Turns out that our AC unit was actually fine, it was our breaker that had gone bad, which was an easy fix and SIGNIFICANTLY less expensive. I am so thankful that we had HONEST, ethical, skilled techs come out to check our unit. They easily could have just agreed with the previous assessment and tried to sell us a whole new system. I can’t say enough how much I appreciate them!
Janelle Hendrix
Have used gulf coast air systems since 1985, they not only install but also maintain my unit through a service agreement. They are always responsive and arrive at time scheduled. This time I had a new unit installed and dealt with Amari, who went above and beyond to keep my cool until my unit arrived (yes COVID-19 has effected them). Amari personally brought a portable unit to my house to make things bearable until my unit was installed.I want to thank everyone at gulf coast air and will continue using and recommending them whenever the opportunity presents itself.A very satisfied customer for 35 years
William Brennan
Chad was out to my house twice. Every time he came he took the time to explain what he was doing and why. He answered all my questions. He is very professional, knowledgeable and respectful.I really like this company !!
Suzanne Gray
After shopping around, they had the best price for what I needed. Amari explained everything that was included and was very kind and personable which goes a long way in representing the company. She even brought a portable unit to help us as we waited for the repair day. I would recommend them to anyone.
Jorge Rodriguez
We have an older AC unit and perform an annual service with Gulf Coast Air Systems to extend the life of the unit. Brandon was very thorough and honest in his evaluation of the unit. Although the 14-year-old unit is showing signs it is approaching the end of its life, Brandon fully explained his diagnostics and was able to perform several minor services that should extend the life of the unit for a few more years. I appreciate his honesty and the transparency of service that I’ve always received from Gulf Coast Air Systems during these yearly service visits. They are not out to sell new AC units as soon as a problem arises but prefer preventative maintenance and repairs if at all possible. Thank you!
Ray Jacobs
Amazing!!! Today someone went to fix my AC which was making a weird buzzing sound. He was amazing, fixed it fast and was professional through out. Response time was less than 24hrs which was amazing because this Florida heat is too much.
Pao Rivera
Carson came out on a Saturday and did everything he could to help us solve our problem. He communicated with us every step of the way and left us feeling satisfied with his work
Madilite
I don't normally make posts, but the technician (Carson) that serviced our AC today was exceptional. Polite, Competent, Thorough and Professional. He explained everything he was doing, what he found wrong, and how he could fix it, in very easy to understand terms. No pressure sales/service... Gulf Coast Air Systems is pretty awesome if all of their representatives are like Carson.
Maria Ramirez
The technician was on-time and seemed to do a thorough maintenance service. He was professional and pleasant. I really appreciated his diligence with putting on protective shoe covering each time he came in.
Lissa Bailey
I’m very happy with the service Gulf Coast Air System provided today at my home. The work was Very professional and quality of work was excellent.
Shanna pettys
GULF COAST AIR came out quickly in busy heat of summer same evening I called!! Garvin tech was quick to locate and fix my problem honestly and awesome price!!! Do not hesitate to call them I have dealt with many hvac companies this company is reputable.
CHARLES GILLI
I would like to thank Gulf Coast Air for fixing my Air Condition, Particularly Ranier and Clyde. They were friendly yet professional and you could tell they knew what they were doing. I also thank you for being reasonable priced as the other company I used wanted to charge me double what I was charged here. You are definitely my go to company from now on.Sincerely, Laurie Smoak
Laurie Smoak
What a wonderful experience! We recently had to replace an 18 year old Lennox system. Everyone we met and dealt with were top notch from Steve, the sales person (now called comfort specialist) to Donnie and Corrie the installers who spent about six hours in and out of the house without us being inconvenienced at all. Great job. Thanks, James
James Edgar, M.D.
Gulf Coast Air System is an outstanding company. The Technicians are well trained in their specialty. Recently Michael Anderson came to our home to fix our air condition unit. He found the problem right away. Michael's customer service is outstanding. I give this company 10+.
Diana Montes Guzman
I want to thank the staff at Gulf Coast Air Systems. Jason helped get us scheduled and equipped as soon as possible after our air unit went out.The technicians arrived on time and never stopped working until the install was complete. They completely cleaned up afterwards and then gave clear instructions to me regarding the new equipment. Everyone was very professional and knowledgeable. It was such a pleasure to work with them. We will be using them again soon to replace another unit in our house!
Darlene Pla-Tschantz
Gulf Coast Air Systems provided exceptional service on very short notice. Professional, punctual, and quality work. Highly recommended.
Luke Richardson
We have had a maintenance service contract with Gulf Coast for several years and have been very satisfied with their work. Kenneth (not sure if that is his first, or last name) has been the service tech that has come for the last 3 or 4 times. He is very knowledgeable and professional.
Joe Brandon
Great Christian owned company whose core values are to keep employees and customers happy. Have always stood behind their work. For listed reasons and so many more I love working in this family style atmosphere. Many employees have lengthy tenures here like myself. going on my year number twelve of employment and are looking forward to many more years to come.
Michael Hackett
Very quick to respond, called this morning once our power was restored. They came, they repaired and we are cooling again!
linda kelly
We have had a service agreement with Gulf Coast for more than five years and have always been very happy with this company. It's a pleasure dealing with the office staff to schedule appts and the Service Technicians are knowledgeable and very professional. We recently had our six month maintenance check and Jay, our Technician, couldn't have been more helpful in answering our questions. We value and trust our relationship with Gulf Coast.
Sharon Smith
We have a service contract with Gulf Coast and I absolutely love these guys! They are always on time, always polite, and always go above and beyond when explaining what they do and what I can do to help keep my unit running perfectly. I especially want to thank technician Matt, you are a true asset to Gulf Coast and they should be honored to have someone with your character and work ethics as part of their company!
Elexa Crisp
We have used Gulf Coast for many years. They sold us a replacement unit for our previous home, along with replacing 2 of our 3 units for our dental practice. We have a maintenance contract with them for all our units. We recently sold our home and moved into a condo. The first thing we did is sign up for a maintenance contract. Every 6 months check everything. They let us know if there is something they "suspect" might come up later. Luke has been to our condo for the past couple visits. He is prompt, very courteous and answers our questions.Unlike previous reviews, we don't expect something for nothing. We understand an AC unit will not live forever, and sometimes you get a "dud". It's not the fault of your local business. If anyone should stand up for the unit, it should be the one who made it. Gulf Coast's reputation for being a great Christian business gives them the right for first bid, when I have a need for replacement.I'm not related to, nor have any "interest" in this business except to say for the past many years of using their services for both repair, maintenance and replacement of residential and commercial, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this company for all your AC needs.
Mandy R
Today Kennith Brooks with Gulf Coast Air came out to check for a leak in our air conditioner system. Without a doubt he is one of the most efficient,professional and knowledgeable technician we have ever done businesswith. He was prompt and when he completed his work he answered all my questions and explained everything to me.I will recommend them to anyone who want the best available companies.
Linda Fortune
Luke from Gulf Coast just left after maintenance. He was polite, on time, did a complete service in a timely manner. Very impressed.
Sue Schwindt
Matt M. was our service tech here in Brandon, FL. He was excellent and very thorough. Our system is brand new, and top of the line, and unfortunately the company who installed it (ARS) did TERRIBLE work and the system has never worked properly. We have had that company here at least 4 times and they have never fixed the issue of the system not cooling. Within 20 minutes of Gulf Coast being here, Matt had figured out exactly what the issue is and ensuring its fixed. Highly recommend this company!
Alisha Burnett
We had our service appointment today and our technician, Kenneth Brooks, was very friendly and efficient. Thanks for a great job!!!
Yvonne Berinato
Thank You Gulf Coast! You recently replaced my air handler and wanted to say how pleased I am with the service. Not only did you tirelessly work to find an exact replacement (my unit was 12 years old) but your team (Donny and Angel) worked not stop to ensure I was back in service very quickly. And if that was not enough, they found a misplaced college class ring that we had been looking for the last two plus years!!!! They could have easily pocketed that ring and I would never have known! Instead they promptly brought it to me! Quality and at good price and HONEST employees! God Bless the men and women at Gulf Coast Air!!
Charles Hill
We have always had excellent results with Gulf Coast Air. We have been a loyal customer for over 20 years. On our last maintenance visit, Luke diagnosed a problem with our blower motor and circuit board on one unit and replaced a capacitor that was showing signs of wear on the other. The new parts were ordered and installed by Matt quickly and efficiently within a few days. We are very satisfied customers.
Carol Sweeney
The staff at Gulf Coast Systems were very responsive in service. I have health issues and when I lost my air conditioning,their response was amazing. Matt, their tech them sent Dx the problem and had my service back on line before he left which prevented my having to go to a motel.I am so glad I am one of their clients. Thank you again.
Mary C
Kennith Brooks came to service my heat pump air system yesterday, 6/13/16. He was professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and definitely fixed the problem. What's more, Ken was able to explain the system and its characteristics vs older systems very clearly so that using it in the future will be a breeze, er, no pun intended.I would very definitely recommend Gulf Coast Air Systems and Kennith Brooks in particular.
Susan Lee
We have used them for several years and have always had a wonderful experience. Their office staff is always very friendly and goes above and beyond for us. The field staff is also amazing! We have had great experiences with Kenneth and Andrew. Andrew was so kind and helpful. He came out of his way at 9pm on a Friday just to help us. He was polite and worked quickly. I HIGHLY recommend this company! Great service! We will be life long customers.
Crystal Marie
Gulf Coast has been a top notch co. to use. They work with me on appt. times and are prompt with emergency calls. Ken Brooks serviced my unites yesterday and is just the best. Called as he was on his way to my home and came with in the set appt. time. He is very pleasant and trustworthy. I often ask for him when he is available. Highly recommend the company.
Constance Pitts
Matt Moore was the technician that fixed my air-conditioner. Matt was informative and considerate about what time he would arrive and careful not to damage anything inside because he had to go upstairs to the roof. The service was excellent and I was very happy he was able to do the repair without any delay. I have been a satisfied customer of Gulf Coast Air Systems for years!!
Pamela Copher
This weekend had a problem with our Air Conditioner, so called Gulf Coast Air early Saturday morning. Within an hour Matt Moore came, did a quick assessment, immdiately identified the issue, and repaired/replaced the burned out fan motor. Friendly, knowledgeable, and no attempt to "upsell" us. I asked about getting a more up-to-date thermostat, and he was able to immediately quote a price, make the switch. Everything about the experience (other than having had the problem in the first place, which is not the companies fault!) was excellent. Thanks for a job well done, plan to use you again in the future.
Steve Slade
SERVICE TECH KENNETH BROOKS JUST DID MY SEMI ANNUAL CHECK UP. ARRIVED TIMELY AND DID A GOOD THOROUGH JOB. GULF COAST INSTALLED THE AC IN THE HOUSE I PURCHASED NEW. HAVE USED THEM EVER SINCE.
