Services
Founded in 1995, Southern Comfort Climate Control has been a fully operating air conditioning business for over 24 years. We are licensed in the state of Florida as a air conditioning and heating contractor, with over 35 years of actual field experience in the business. Bringing the knowledge needed to help solve your cooling and heating needs, the owner Jim Larder, is actively out in the field overlooking and performing the work.
Southern Comfort Climate Control keeps your home cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Servicing the areas of Destin, Fort Walton Beach, Niceville, Shalimar, Miramar Beach, Mary Esther and more. Please call to ask if we service your area. Our services are performed with a more personal touch than most companies can afford to take the time for.
Unfortunately, all of our air conditioners will eventually fail. It is one of those "facts of life". Just because your system suffers from a "bump", does not necessarily mean its time to replace it. Many times a repair is all that is needed and that is where we come in. Southern Comfort Climate Control is a company that still often suggests repairs instead of always just trying to sell you a new system.
Call us at Southern Comfort Climate Control so we can keep you comfortable in your home. In our area, heat pumps and gas furnaces are the primary means for heating your homes and businesses. We service and repair both. Our heating systems don't see as much use as our air conditioning side of the system, but they still have their occasional breakdowns.
Replacing a heating and air conditioning system is a major investment for your home. There are many decisions to make when it is time to replace your system such as: which SEER rating to choose, type and brand name, and which company to choose to install your system. We specialize in replacement systems to provide you with a comfortable home at reasonable costs.

I own a rental property in Fort Walton Beach and live in VA. My property manager quoted an exorbitant price to replace my aged system. I found Jim through a referral and was comforted to find his 5 star reviews. The system shut down the 1st of July and Jim was there to replace it on July 3rd. He came in $1500 under what I was being quoted by my property manager. I had damage incurred to the unit less than 3 months after it was installed. Jim came out immediately and covered the parts and labor under warranty. His service after the sale is impeccable.
I will demand my rental company coordinate

A friend recommended him to me when I first moved here and my A/C stopped working. He was able to come and repair the same day. I’ve called him a few times since for yearly service and he’s always been fair and honest and has never tried to talk me into anything I didn’t actually need just to make a sale.

I have been using Southern Comfort AC (Jim) for over 10 years now! Service does not get any better than my experiences with Jim. My first encounter years ago, my AC went out. Jim came out and spent several hours checking out the whole system and diagnosing the problem to a minor part. Instead of just telling me that I needed a whole new system, he made the repair and the AC system lasted for several more years (maybe 7 to 8). In the middle of that time, we closed in our 600 sq. ft. garage for a father-in-law suite. Jim came out, talked me though all the pros and cons of the different options

Jim is honest & very knowledgeable about a/c systems service and repair. His prices are very reasonable. For the past 16 years he has been servicing our AC system on our old house & our new house as well. 2 years in our new home A/C system had a problem Jim diagnosed the problem and made sure that the part was paid for under factory warranty, and got it fixed fast. We won't call anyone else. He is the best around.

I was told by my other AC company that my system was done and needed to be replaced after just last year they told me I still had like 3 years of life in it. I asked a trusted source which AC system was going to be best and he said Rheem. After searching Rheem, Southern Comfort came up and Jim became a new trusted resource for me. Jim came out to my home same day and worked for hours to diagnose what was going on. He said my system was ok and did not need replacing right now that it seemed the thermostat was causing the problem. He replaced the thermostat for a very reasonable price and weeks
