Heating and cooling in Alabama
Long cooling seasons with heavy moisture. Air conditioners and heat pumps run most of the year, and humidity control matters as much as temperature.
Alabama licenses HVAC contractors through the Alabama Board of Heating, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Contractors. A certification is required for most residential HVAC work, and city or county offices issue permits.
Alabama's long, humid summers make AC and heat pumps the core of the market, with gas furnaces common in the north. Spring storms bring tornado warnings and power surges, and the Gulf Coast around Mobile faces hurricanes.
Huntsville and north Alabama see colder winters and occasional snow, Birmingham and Montgomery are hot and humid, and Mobile on the Gulf Coast faces hurricanes and salt air. Spring is severe-weather season statewide, which makes surge protection worth considering.
Most common needs in a hot and humid climate
- AC and heat pump repair in peak summer
