The Lake Magdalene area’s shaded lots and lakeside settings make it one of North Tampa’s hidden gems, and Action Air Conditioning has kept its homes comfortable since 1988.
Tree cover helps with the afternoon sun, but Florida humidity does not care about shade. Lakeside air keeps moisture loads high year-round, which makes proper system sizing and humidity control the real keys to comfort here.

Why does my home feel clammy even when it is cool?
An oversized or short-cycling system cools the air without pulling enough moisture out of it. The fix starts with an honest evaluation, not a bigger unit. We will be straight with you: we are not chasing the cheapest quote in town, we are after customers who value work done right. We diagnose, explain, and quote upfront, license CAC042730, no hidden fees. Call (813) 935-6644 or request a free estimate.

Frequently Asked Questions
An oversized or short-cycling system cools the air without pulling enough moisture out of it. The lakeside air around here keeps moisture loads high year-round, and the tree cover that helps with afternoon sun does nothing to change that. The fix starts with an honest evaluation, not a bigger unit. We diagnose what is actually happening, explain it, and quote upfront, license CAC042730, no hidden fees.
We will walk through what is causing the clamminess and what it takes to fix it. Contact us for a free estimate.
We have kept homes comfortable in Lake Magdalene since 1988. Both owners, Dave Russell and Chris Russell, are licensed Florida mechanical contractors, and they are personally the license qualifiers for the company. That matters because many AC companies are run by owners who do not hold the qualifying licenses themselves.
If you want to meet the people who will actually stand behind the work, stop by our showroom at 8926 N Armenia Ave or contact us to schedule a visit.
Lakeside air keeps moisture loads high all year, and an oversized system will cool the space too quickly and shut off before it has run long enough to wring the humidity out. That leaves you cold and sticky. Proper sizing means the system runs long enough on each cycle to handle both temperature and moisture, which is the real key to comfort here.

Both owners are licensed Florida mechanical contractors and personally qualify the company license. Chris Russell is also a licensed plumbing contractor and is working toward an electrical license. Dave Russell has worked in air conditioning since 1974, over fifty years. When we say the owners are the licensed contractors, we mean it literally.

If a system genuinely fails three real service calls in its first year, we replace the unit rather than keep repairing it. There is no lemon law for air conditioning, but that is our practice. Lennox credits us for the returned unit, and you get a fresh start.
We have been a Lennox Centennial Award dealer, top 100 in America for customer satisfaction, for about five years running. Contact us to talk about what that actually means for you.
Customers are routinely surprised by how thoroughly our crews clean up after an install. Our crews will skip lunch to finish rather than leave you without air, and they treat the site the way we would want ours treated.
If you have heard installation horror stories from neighbors, come see our showroom or meet one of our comfort consultants in person. Contact us to set that up.
Yes. We service Tampa, St. Pete, Clearwater, Palm Harbor, and anywhere within fifty miles of our office. Lake Magdalene is part of North Tampa, and we have been working here since 1988.
