AfterHVAC Company in Tice, FL
Most HVAC calls we receive from Tice involve homes built between the 1950s and 1970s, where concrete block construction and slab-on-grade foundations create ventilation challenges you won’t find in newer developments. We’re Coldharbour Heating & Air, and our technicians serve Tice from our Miami-area dispatch office with the Kingswell Guarantee: a written price before any work begins, a firm arrival window, and our 365-Day Done Right Promise on every repair. Call us at (817) 402-2972 when you need service.
Why Tice Homes Are Different
Tice sits in unincorporated Lee County near the Caloosahatchee River corridor, and that geography shapes every job we do here. The subtropical humidity never really lets up, and the June through September rainy season brings near-daily thunderstorms that keep air conditioners running flat-out for most of the year. Dehumidification demand in Tice often matches or exceeds pure cooling demand, which means systems here work harder than in drier inland markets.
The housing stock tells its own story. Most Tice homes are modest concrete block structures on slab foundations, with ductwork routed through attics that were never properly insulated. That combination drives up system load and produces duct sweat that degrades components faster. We also service a significant share of older mobile and manufactured homes in the area, which need completely different tonnage calculations and duct configurations than site-built construction.
Then there’s Hurricane Ian. The 2022 storm’s inland surge and wind caused widespread HVAC damage across Tice’s older housing stock, and we’re still finding latent damage on routine calls: air handler closets that flooded, drain pans that cracked, evaporator coils that grew mold, wiring that corroded. What looks like a standard service call often turns into an Ian-damage discovery nearly three years later. Every replacement we do now must comply with Lee County’s post-Ian revised wind-load and anchorage requirements, a code landscape distinct from neighboring Fort Myers and Cape Coral, which operate under their own municipal ordinances.
Our Main Tice Services
Tice homeowners call us most often for cooling system work and heating repairs during our brief winter season. Each service has its own dedicated Tice page with full details.
AC Repair in Tice
AC repair in Tice means dealing with systems that run ten or eleven months straight through brutal humidity. We regularly find evaporator coils corroded by the river corridor’s moisture load, and condensate pans choked with biological growth that wouldn’t develop this fast in drier climates. Our technicians carry common capacitors, contactors, and refrigerant for the major brands we see in Tice’s older housing stock. AC Repair in Tice
Furnace Repair in Tice
Tice’s furnaces see light use compared to northern markets, but that intermittent operation creates its own problems: heat exchanger cracks from thermal cycling, igniter failures on first startup after months of disuse, and blower motors that seize from sitting idle. We repair gas and electric furnaces in both site-built homes and manufactured housing, where access and venting configurations differ significantly. Furnace Repair in Tice
AC Installation in Tice
New AC installation in Tice requires load calculations that account for uninsulated attic ductwork, slab-level air handler closets, and the moisture burden from the Caloosahatchee corridor. Every replacement since Hurricane Ian must meet Lee County’s updated anchorage and wind-load standards, not the older codes still grandfathered in some neighboring cities. We size systems for dehumidification performance, not just cooling capacity. AC Installation in Tice

FAQs About HVAC Company in Tice, FL
Yes. Because Tice is unincorporated Lee County, we pull permits through Lee County’s building department, not a city office. Post-Hurricane Ian, the county amended wind-load and anchorage requirements that differ from Fort Myers and Cape Coral municipal codes. We handle all permit paperwork as part of every installation.
We answer phones with a live person 24 hours a day, and we schedule Tice calls with firm arrival windows. Most repair requests reach a technician the same day or next day depending on call volume. Call (817) 402-2972 for current availability.
Yes. Tice has a notable share of older mobile and manufactured homes, and we size systems and configure ductwork specifically for non-standard construction. The tonnage calculations and equipment clearances differ from site-built homes, and our technicians account for that on every manufactured home job.

What Tice Customers Say
"Furnace wouldn't light the first cold morning. The guy walked me through what he was checking so I actually understood it. Replaced the igniter, wrote up the warranty, and it's been warm since."
- Alicia Romero"AC died overnight with a newborn in the house. They bumped us up the list and had it running by noon. I about hugged the guy. Fair price even on a rush call."
- Celeste Ngo"The repair was done well and quickly. Scheduling over the phone was a little clunky and I got transferred twice, but the tech himself was great and on time."
