That's a 26.44% increase in your electricity costs! With rates rising, how can you stay cool and comfortable in your home and spend less on utility costs? Your answer may rest with new, energy-efficient HVAC equipment and its Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio or SEER. Air conditioners and heat pumps are assigned a SEER rating related to the unit's energy efficiency and performance for cooling.

Matt came out the same day and offered a more competitive price than his competitors.
While using an HVAC system, heating plays one of the most important roles to give you and your home comfort throughout. These systems are built and work in a very tough-to-understand and complex manner, which is why they need regular maintenance and inspections. Due to regular usage, it may also happen that they need regular repairs.

Our heat had been on the fritz for some time expelling nauseous fumes. Called Southern Comfort due to good google reviews and we were not disappointed. They came when they said they would and did what they said they would for a reasonable price. Love that they call and text enroute! Thanks for your professionalism and excellent service Jason, Mike, and the other Jason!

It is unprofessional installation with many detail problems.
The repair cost is outrageously high. Make sure first comparing with other companies before doing business with this one.
I have 2 services from this company and regret deeply.
First service is for a split unit installation done a few month ago. That had many detail problems. the insulation did not complete at the unit and tubes outside house not set straight and not look good.
I have the company back for the insulation problem but they still not do a good job.
Second service is a few days ago for leaking problem for my other AC

Excellent service, responsive, on time, fair prices and stand by their work. They had to come back out on a call because of a faulty part and they replaced it and no charge for the 2nd service which took much longer than the first one as they triple checked everything. Highly recommend.

We had Southern Comfort Heating and Cool replace our old coil and compressor (AC unit). Robert and Jamal were fantastic- showed up on time, worked hard, were friendly and cleaned up after themselves. They left the area around our HVAC/AC untouched. Would highly recommend. Matt in the main office was also extremely friendly and made the process of getting a quote and scheduling an install fast and easy. Great communication.

We ended up having a couple problems with our unit. The first problem was fixed initially, but the unit was still not working properly. They quickly came back out the following day and diagnosed and fixed the other issue for us and our unit worked properly after. The technician was very pleasant both times he came out, and the fix was very reasonable price-wise.

First impressions mean everything. Especially in a time and place where there are multiple options. Southern Comfort Heating and Air advertises they are open 24 hours a day. I called at 8:30 am on a Thursday and never got an answer. The phone continuously rang just shy of two minutes, no answer and no machine. A minute later I get a call from a snarky lady saying "Did I miss a call from you?" Since I have caller ID, I saw that it was Southern Comfort Heating and Air on the other end of the phone.
I told her I was calling to see if someone could come out and take a look at my unit

This is by far the best HVAC company we have used! Matt(owner) and Aaron are knowledgeable and helpful with all your heating and cooling needs.The staff is always friendly and very quick to respond. We have had problems with an upstairs unit failing to cool and they were able to come up with a solution that is better than any we have tried. We have found their pricing to be very honest and fair. Any problems have been handled well and fixed in a timely manner! Always mindful of keeping your home and property clean! Give them a call!(859) 255-2500

Great service from scheduling the call, through paying for the work. My system had not been able to keep up with the heat, which was a departure from last summer. We have one large unit servicing 3200 sq.ft. of a two story house.
When I made the service call, it was after lunch, and I received an apology because they couldn't make it out that same day. With the heat wave, I didn't expect to be scheduled the next day. The service tech, Clarence, called first thing the next morning, and arrived about 10 minutes afterward. After inspection, I was advised of my options. The system

Great company. Tried more than 5 others in Lexington but this company is the best in service and pricing. My evaporator coil needed to be replaced. Matt came out the same day and offered a more competitive price than his competitors. The coil was replaced sooner than most other companies were able to just offer a service appointment. Highly recommended.

Called these guys out for a recharge on refrigerant. Let me explain how a one hour, couple hundred dollar job turns into a weeks long, thousand dollar plus repair job and, more importantly, a true test of the character of a company and its owner.
Long story short, a crew was working in my attic and, at some point unbeknownst to one or both of them, knocked my drain line loose. By the next morning I noticed major water damage in my ceiling where the line was leaking. I'm not saying that they meant to flood the ceiling. I'm not saying that they should have even known they did. I make mistakes

All I can say is WOW! Our AC went down and Southern Comfort Heating and Cooling came to the rescue. They didn't try to sell me, they asked what our HVAC needs were and found a solution that fit my families budget. Matt, Aaron, Mike, Brian, Chris, Jon, and Jamal spent today, in the pouring rain, getting us set up for years of comfort with a reliable system. They were professional, efficient, and far exceeded our expectations! Thanks for putting customer service back on the map!

Everyone I worked with at Southern Comfort Heating and Air was A+. I got the name of this company from a distributor, not from a list or review. Aaron gave me the estimate and after hearing my problem of noisy AC unit right next to my deck, solved my problem by suggesting moving the unit all the way around the house to the side. I had told a couple other estimators about the noise issue and my idea was just to move a few feet away, but no one but Aaron actually tried to figure out a better solution. Noise problem solved! They sell American Standard, which doesn't show up on those lists

Matt is one of the best in the business without a doubt. We needed a new heat pump for our home and he came out for a full free inspection and consultation. He was extremely knowledgeable and explained everything in very easy to understand terms. This is our first home and the first time we've ever had to deal with HVAC issues and he was very easy to get a long with. A lot of contractors just spit arbitrary numbers at you but he goes through the whole process and plan with you so there aren't any surprises. He does incredible work and has a great labor warranty with everything they do
