What We Do

HVAC Services for Homes and Businesses in Central Kentucky

Whether your air conditioner quit in the middle of July or your furnace is making a sound it has never made before, we handle the whole system from one call. Every visit starts with a straight answer about what is wrong and what it will cost, before any work begins.

Air Conditioning Repair

Kentucky summers do not give your AC a break, and neither do we. We diagnose the actual cause of the failure, walk you through the fix in plain language, and get cool air moving again as fast as parts allow.

Heating Repair

When the heat goes out in a Central Kentucky January, waiting is not an option. Our technicians service furnaces, heat pumps, ductless mini splits, and full heating systems for homes and light residential buildings across the region.

System Replacement and Installation

An aging system quietly costs you every month on your power bill. We size the replacement to your actual home, not to a sales quota, and explain the honest difference between the options in front of you.

Seasonal Maintenance

Ever hear the old saying, if you do not make time for maintenance, it will make time for you. Two tune ups a year, one before cooling season and one before heating season, is the cheapest way to keep it from choosing the moment. We clean, test, and catch small problems while they are still small.

Light Residential Service

Your building has to stay comfortable for customers and staff no matter what the thermostat says outside. We keep light systems running across Central Kentucky, with service plans tailored to the equipment you actually have.

Emergency HVAC Service

If your heat dies late at night, call us. A real person answers the phone 24 hours a day, six days a week, and books you the next available appointment. Technicians go out as the schedule allows, and we will tell you honestly when that is rather than leave you guessing. We are closed on Sunday for worship.

What Our Customers Say

Most of our work comes from people telling their neighbors about us. That is the standard we hold ourselves to.

I have been dealing with an ongoing AC problem. Spencer came out and quickly diagnosed the issue, and fixed it properly. My system is now running better than it has in a while.
Emily M. Google review, a month ago
Great service from someone that I trust, which is really satisfying in today's world. Pointed out a potential concern that had been missed by original installers. Fix was quick and saved a future potential major problem.
Art J. Google review, 2 months ago
Of course, the hottest week of the year, our AC decided to bite the dust on day one. He came out and diagnosed the problem in minutes. He jumped straight to work going above and beyond making sure it was fixed and clean.
Susan A. Local Guide, a month ago Local Guide
Spencer with Southern Heating & Cooling is the man for high quality, honest, and professional service. My air handler was back running and operational in less than an hour with his troubleshooting capabilities. Even better, they are veteran owned!
Sean H. Google review, 2 months ago
Our AC failed. I called late Friday, and they showed up early Saturday morning. Courteous service. Deducted the diagnostic fee from actual repairs. Total was less than I feared.
Harold M. Local Guide, a month ago Local Guide
Spencer was very professional and got us fixed up in no time. He is now our new HVAC guy. If anyone needs someone I really recommend Southern Heating and Cooling!
Jennifer M. Google review, 5 months ago
They saved the day when our AC stopped working in the dead of summer. I was well into my pregnancy and not having a good time. They were quick and efficient, definitely recommend!
