In Orlando, air conditioning isn't optional, and Florida treats the people who install it as licensed contractors. Florida Statutes § 489.105 sets out the main categories. A Class A air-conditioning contractor can work on central air, heating and ventilating systems of any size. A Class B contractor is limited to 25 tons of cooling and 500,000 Btu of heating in any one system, which still covers a typical home. Mechanical contractors hold a broader license. Whichever license a company names, you can confirm it on the Department of Business and Professional Regulation's free license search, which shows the license type and whether it's active.
