Heating repair calls in Citrus Park almost always arrive on the first cold night of the year, the moment a heat pump that has not run in heat mode since March finally gets asked to perform. Action Air Conditioning has answered those calls across Tampa Bay for 35+ years, and we still run this family company on the honesty and integrity it was built with.
You get a clear diagnosis and a written price before we touch a thing, and we will not push a replacement when a repair will do.
Why is my heat pump blowing cool air in heat mode?
The usual suspects are a stuck reversing valve, a thermostat setting or wiring fault, or a defrost control problem, and all three are repairable without replacing the system. Keep in mind that heat pump air naturally feels cooler than furnace air even when everything is working correctly, so a proper diagnosis matters. We service heat pumps, electric furnaces, and thermostats across every major brand.
Should Citrus Park homeowners test the heat before winter?
Yes, run your system in heat mode for ten minutes on a mild fall day and listen for trouble. Plenty of builder-grade systems in the neighborhoods along the Veterans Expressway corridor are old enough now that heating components are the first thing to fail, and finding out in October beats finding out at midnight in January. If it does fail at midnight, our 24/7 emergency service is there for exactly that.

Heard something wrong during your test run? Contact us and we will get it sorted before the cold snap.
We diagnose the problem first, explain what we found, and give you a written price before we start the repair. Both owners are licensed Florida mechanical contractors, so the person qualifying our license is either in the truck or answering the phone, not somewhere on a flowchart. You get a clear answer about whether the repair makes sense or whether the system has reached the end of its useful life, and we will not upsell you either direction.

We offer 24/7 emergency service, which exists for exactly the situation where your heat fails at midnight in January. Heating repair calls in Citrus Park almost always arrive on the first cold night of the year, the moment a heat pump that has not run in heat mode since March finally gets asked to perform. We have answered those calls across Tampa Bay for more than 35 years.
System down and it cannot wait until morning? Contact us any time, day or night.
We service heat pumps, electric furnaces, and thermostats across every major brand. We are a Lennox Centennial Award dealer, which puts us in the top 100 Lennox dealers in America based on customer satisfaction and complaint handling rather than purchase volume, but we also spent years as Carrier and Trane dealers and we know those systems inside out. If it heats a home in Tampa Bay, we have worked on it.
Not sure if we service your brand? Contact us and ask, we probably do.
The cost depends entirely on what failed. A thermostat wiring fault costs far less than a reversing valve or a defrost control board, and we will not know until we diagnose the system. We provide a written price before we start any work, so you decide with full information in hand. Our philosophy is five-star service at four-star pricing, never the cheapest and never the most expensive.

We will tell you when a repair does not make financial sense, and we will not push a replacement when a repair will do. The decision depends on the age of the equipment, the cost of the part, and whether other components are likely to fail soon.
Weighing repair against replacement? Contact us and we will walk you through the honest math.
Yes. Dave Russell and Chris Russell are both licensed Florida mechanical contractors, and they are personally the license qualifiers for the company. Chris Russell is also a licensed plumbing contractor and is pursuing an electrical license. Many air conditioning companies are run by owners who do not hold the qualifying licenses themselves, which means the licensed person is an employee who could leave tomorrow. That is our stated differentiator and it matters when you need an honest answer about a repair.
Want to speak directly with someone who holds the license? Contact us and you will.
Repair time depends on what failed. A thermostat swap is quick. Replacing a reversing valve or a defrost control board takes longer because the refrigerant system has to be recovered, the part replaced, the system evacuated, and the charge restored. We focus on doing the job correctly rather than watching the clock, and customers tell us they are surprised by how thoroughly our crews clean up when the work is done.
Need to know timing for your schedule? Contact us and we will give you a realistic estimate once we know what the repair involves.
