AC Replacement in Opa-locka, FL
AC replacement means removing your existing central air system and installing a new one that is properly sized for your home. It makes sense when a major part such as the compressor fails on an older system, repairs keep adding up, the system uses R-22, or it can no longer keep the house comfortable. In Opa-locka, Abraham AC provides AC replacement from its office in Oakland Park.

Signs
When to book AC replacement
- Repairs are becoming frequent, or a major part such as the compressor has failed
- The system uses R-22, which is no longer produced in the US
- Some rooms never reach the setpoint, even after repairs
- The house stays humid or clammy while the AC runs
- Electric use keeps rising without a change in how you use the house
The visit
What to expect
- Someone visits to look at the current system, the ductwork, the electrical supply and how you use the house.
- They size the new system with a load calculation for your home rather than copying the size of the old one.
- You get written options that explain the differences between systems, so you can compare them side by side.
- On installation day the crew protects your floors, removes the old equipment and sets the new indoor and outdoor units, refrigerant lines, drain and thermostat.
- Where the local building department requires it, the work is permitted and inspected.
- The installer starts the system, checks refrigerant charge and airflow, and shows you how to use the thermostat and change the filter.

Florida notes
AC Replacement in Florida’s climate
- Humidity makes sizing matter in Florida. An oversized system cools the air quickly and shuts off before it has removed enough moisture, which leaves the house cool but clammy.
- Salt air near the coast corrodes outdoor coils and cabinets faster. If you live close to the water, ask about corrosion-resistant coil coatings or coastal-grade equipment.
- Outdoor units in Florida need to be secured against hurricane winds. Replacement is a good time to confirm the new unit is anchored to its pad as local code requires, and raised where flooding is a concern.
- Since January 1, 2023, new central air systems in the US have been measured under the SEER2 efficiency standard, and Florida falls in the southeastern region, where minimum efficiency requirements are higher.

“AC went out. Got a ridiculously high quote from one company then 2 others about the same. Abraham was one of the 2 and went with them due to tech Rafael customer service and attentiveness to detail. Informed me all the way through the process and was very transparent. Would highly recommend.”
Ed PeinAbraham customer · via abrahamac.com “I used Abraham AC a few years ago to help with a AC issue with a house we were just about to sell. They were kind enough to suggest a good, used unit saving us 1000s. I've since recommended them countless times…”

Questions
AC Replacement in Opa-locka, answered
Who provides AC replacement in Opa-locka, FL?
Abraham AC (954-491-3220) provides AC replacement in Opa-locka. Enter your ZIP to book online from Abraham AC, or call to check your address.
Should I replace the indoor and outdoor units together?
Usually, yes. The indoor and outdoor units are designed and certified as a matched pair, and mismatched equipment can lose efficiency and remove less humidity. A technician can confirm whether your existing indoor unit is compatible.
Can I keep using my R-22 system?
Yes, an R-22 system can keep running, but R-22 production ended in the US in 2020, so refrigerant for repairs comes only from reclaimed or stockpiled supply. If an R-22 system has a major leak or compressor failure, replacement is usually the practical choice.
What refrigerant do new AC systems use?
Under federal rules, new residential systems are moving away from R-410A to refrigerants with a lower global warming impact, such as R-454B and R-32. Ask which refrigerant the system you are offered uses and what that means for future service.
