Davie Housing Stock
Half the homes in Davie were built before 1988 (Census ACS median), so the typical house is about 38 years old. Plenty of houses from this period still run original 1990s or early-2000s equipment, which is past its expected service life. About 26,000 households here own their home, 66.6% of the occupied total. The median home value is $433,600, and median household income is $87,171. We use both figures to adjust labor and pricing for this page.
NOAA storm reports for Broward County show 15 hail days and 39 days with damaging thunderstorm winds over the six years from 2020 to 2025. The largest hail reported was 1.5 inches across. Hail flattens the thin aluminum fins on condenser coils and cuts airflow. After a big storm, take a look at the outdoor unit; homeowners insurance often covers the damage. Broward County also had 7 tornado days in that period.

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). Expect the contractor to pull a mechanical permit for a replacement job in Davie. If a bidder suggests skipping it, move on. Also ask for a 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.
