Local homes

Fort Myers housing and HVAC

Most homes are concrete block on slabs with air handlers in garages or closets. Many homes rebuilt after Ian now have elevated equipment, and condos have individual split systems.

Fort Myers has long, hot, humid summers with daily storms and mild, dry winters. Hurricanes and storm surge are major risks.

Permits and seasonal timing in Fort Myers

The City of Fort Myers and Lee County issue mechanical permits, and Florida requires state-certified or registered HVAC contractors. Post-storm replacements must meet current code and floodplain rules.

Storm surge damage

Saltwater flooding destroys outdoor units, air handlers and ducts, and replacements often must be elevated.

Humidity and mold

Constant humidity means air handlers produce a lot of water, so correct sizing, clean condensate drains and float switches are essential to prevent mold and ceiling leaks.

Salt corrosion

Homes near the Caloosahatchee and the Gulf see faster corrosion of outdoor coils and electrical parts, so coated coils and regular rinsing are worthwhile.
