Services
Air Conditioning Repair
Our NATE-certified technicians provide fast, reliable air conditioning repair for residential and commercial systems. With 24/7 emergency service and factory-trained expertise, we diagnose and fix refrigerant leaks, compressor failures, and electrical issues while maintaining your system's energy efficiency. Our team carries specialized tools to resolve most problems during the initial visit, ensuring minimal downtime for homeowners and businesses across Broward County.
Ductless AC Installation
We specialize in ductless mini-split system installations for both residential and commercial properties. These energy-efficient systems provide zoned temperature control through wall-mounted air handlers connected to outdoor condensers. Our certified technicians handle single-room installations or multi-zone configurations for additions and converted spaces, offering quiet operation and improved energy efficiency by eliminating ductwork losses that can account for 30% of cooling costs.
Commercial HVAC
Our commercial HVAC services cater to businesses including medical offices, car dealerships, and distribution centers. We handle complex systems from 5-25 tons, featuring specialized repairs of economizers and make-up air units. Our team follows ACCA Manual J standards for new installations while preventive maintenance agreements reduce unexpected breakdowns. Emergency repair services ensure minimal business disruption, with technicians trained in 3-phase electrical systems and commercial control protocols.
Indoor Air Quality
We offer comprehensive indoor air quality solutions including whole-home air purifiers, UV light systems, and custom air filtration. Our consultants evaluate building ventilation and humidity levels to recommend appropriate solutions like RGF BLUQR or iWave purifiers. The UV light technology we install destroys microorganisms on HVAC coils, while self-sealing metal-framed filters prevent particulate bypass, improving system efficiency and occupant health.
Heating Installation
We provide complete heating system installations including gas furnaces and all-season heat pumps. Our load calculations ensure proper equipment sizing for optimal efficiency, while our technicians handle complex installations with minimal disruption to business operations. Energy-efficient models reduce utility costs while maintaining consistent temperatures during South Florida's cooler months, with financing options available for qualifying replacements.

Wonderful experience for a major purchase. Very pleased. I have a 2nd A/C unit, when it needs replacing I wont even take bids, but simply call company as a repeat customer

I am very wary of AC companies, however, my neighbor recommended Hi-VAC Air Conditioning Service. The technician Steve was very pleasant and personable. He was of exemplary character. He explained and answered any questions I had. Steve recommended 1 service and I inquired about another. I did not feel pressured to commit. I asked him to perform 2 services which he did. I would recommend this company for all AC services.

The two techs Gio and Fernando were very professional and courteous. They showed up on time and went right to work. They cleaned up everything after they were done and answered all my questions. They completed all work and my new A/C unit works beautifully. I was more than pleased with their attitude and work ethic during the job. Definitely happy with my decision to go with them and will recommend to anyone who wants a well serviced system to be installed.

We have a 15+ year relationship with Hi-Vac. They installed a unit for us in 2005 and maintained it well over the years. It was still working well but at the age where it needed to be replaced. Their representative, Joe, stopped at our home yesterday and provided a quote. Since, Hi-Vac is a Trane Certified partner, we were able to take advantage of interest free financing over three years. We signed. Their team arrived at 9 AM this morning and installed our new unit in 7 hours. Perfect job and cleanup by Elvis and Giovanni. Highly recommend!

We have used Hi-Vac for many years. Elvis and William were the technicians who came to replace an air handler in my house. They did an amazing job! Both men were extremely professional and friendly. Also, it looked like they had never been there when they were done. They cleaned everything up after 9 hours of work. The house is nice and cool again. Thank you Elvis and William!

Steven from HI-VAC Air conditioning services did an amazing job! It was a Sunday when no other company got back to us but he answered right away and got there in just a few hours when he finished his other calls. His customer service and response time was great! We will definitely ask for him next time! Thank you Steven! Services: Repair HVAC, A/C system repair, HVAC system repair
