Florida Permits, Efficiency Rules and Rebates
Florida is in the DOE's Southeast region, where new split central air conditioners need at least 14.3 SEER2 (13.8 SEER2 for systems of 45,000 BTU/h and up). Plan on a mechanical permit for most replacements in Boynton Beach; the contractor normally pulls it. Before you sign, ask each bidder for their Florida license or registration number and proof of insurance. The federal 25C tax credit ended for equipment installed after December 31, 2025, so incentives now come mostly from utilities and state programs. Check your electric and gas utility's rebate page before you pick equipment.
Before You Hire
- Ask for a heat-loss calculation. A lot of old boilers are much bigger than the house needs.
- A combi boiler frees up space and replaces your water heater.
- Ask your gas or oil company about rebates on condensing boilers.
