Sensible heat is the type of heat energy that, when added to or removed from a substance, results in a measurable change in its temperature without changing the substance’s physical state. For example, when you heat air, the temperature of the air rises, but it remains in the gas state, which involves sensible heat transfer.

Paradise Heating & Air was conscientious about scheduling and doing a thorough job in installation and servicing.
Great experience!
I was extremely impressed with Paradise Air and am very glad I found them. I have a very old HVAC system they needed some ducts and a condensate pump replaced. They were extremely thorough and clearly explained everything they planned on doing. The price was excellent given how much work they had to do in the crawlspace and the extra time they spent with me advising me on how to get as much out of my old system as I could. They weren’t there to try to sell me a new system. They were there to repair what I asked them to at a reasonable price and help me extend the life of my current system. I won’t even think of calling anyone else from now on.
Jonathon, as always, provided great service! He is very efficient and honest. Thanks Jonathon, Charles
We were very pleased with the service we received! The men were knowledgeable, honest, and timely. We would HIGHLY recommend this service!
Jonathan was great - AC suddenly went out and he was able to get over in 30 min and get it working again! Very knowledgeable and nice!
Paradise ALWAYS delivers high quality service! I love the honesty and integrity of this company. Paradise is without a doubt my first choice for all my heating and air needs!
Love their service. They are very prompt and courteous. They get any issues resolved immediately and are amazing to work with!
Jonathan provided another on-time, courteous and professional annual maintenance service call. Paradise Heating and Air provides great service at a great value.
Great prompt service fair price. Thanks..
Jonathan did a great job. Highly recommended.
Came out same day and explained the problem I was having and how best to fix it, and also what to look for to get ahead of any future issues before they get too bad
I recently had this company come out to my home because my unit wasn’t working, they had someone out the same day. Jonathan was extremely professional and knowledgeable, definitely recommend this company!!
Exactly what I needed!
Jonathan and team are hands down the best folks I have ever worked with in the home services industry. Reasonable prices, high quality work, great communication and responsiveness, 5 stars all around. Highly recommend.
I would highly recommend Jonathan and Paradise Heating and Air. I called multiple places to get quotes on replacing my two older units. What sets Paradise apart is Jonathan took the time to explain my current system, as well as pricing comparable new systems. Not once did he try and sale me the bells and whistles that did not align with what I was replacing like the other businesses. He was not pushy and his prices can't be beat. You can't go wrong with Paradise Heating and Air and they will be my shop for any HVAC needs moving forward. Thank You for being fair and honest.
My unit was not working and they were working with my relatives. I asked if they would take a look at mine and they did with no problem. They told me what the problem was an within 2 days they had my unit up and running!
I highly recommend Paradise Heating and Air. I contacted them to give me an estimate on adding more insulation to my attic. They were super responsive. They came out, gave me an estimate that I felt was very reasonable. In a very short time I was on their schedule. They showed up at the time they told me they would and they did a great job!! They even took care of the areas that were leaking heat. They are very personable, great to deal with. I am super pleased.
Great service - always on time and very professional.
The only company I'll use for HVAC. Jon and his team explain everything, do meticulous work, and clean up after the job is done. What more could you ask for? Thanks guys!
One of our AC units decided to give up, or so we thought. We had several companies come out and give us a quote to replace our unit, all exceeding $13k. Paradise came out, and instead of just giving a price to replace it, they asked if they could tinker with the equipment. They had it fixed within 10 minutes!!! Paradise gave us a quote so we have an idea of the cost for when this ancient unit ACTUALLY dies, and it was $3k-$8k cheaper than our other quotes!!! They could have easily just given us a price for a new unit like everyone else. I appreciate that Paradise put forth the effort to figure out the problem, and saved us THOUSANDS!!!
Trustworthy and honest! I'm so thankful for the service I receive from Paradise Heating and Air. I am a repeat customer because I know Jonathan will not try to sell something I do not need. He explains any issues in detail leaving the decision up to me on whether or not to replace a part. Jonathan takes his time to make sure everything is in good working order before he leaves.He truly cares about his customers. I highly recommend keeping your unit(s) serviced twice a year. I am seeing the benefits on being proactive with this. It's totally worth it. I cannot rave enough about the customer service you receive from Paradise Heating and Air. Call them!!!
Honest and kind. Gave incredible price for work completed. Called and was able to come earlier than expected! Cannot recommend enough
2025 UPDATE: I needed Jonathan service on Friday, April 3rd. I called his office at 6:40. Jonathan arrived at my home by 2 o’clock that afternoon. Got my unit back up and running in less than an hour. The team at Paradise heating and cooling. Always provide exceptional, customer service and expertise. As long as Jonathan is in business, I will continue to do business with him. "I was so impressed with Mr. Jonathan from Paradise Heating & Air! They were incredibly respectful of my home, even wearing shoe covers. They were punctual and kept me informed every step of the way. Mr. Jonathan took the time to explain the issue clearly and simply, without any confusing technical terms. They offered several options and let me decide what was best for me and my budget.

I highly recommend Mr. Jonathan and Paradise Heating & Air to anyone looking for reliable and honest HVAC service. It's refreshing to find a company you can trust."
We have had Jonathan and his capable team working on our A/c and Heating for several years. They are punctual, well mannered and reasonably priced. The work they have done including an A/C replacement has always been outstanding. Plus, we have appreciated their problem solving skills in helping our remaining old units get along from year to year. We are so grateful to have them a phone call away!
They were great. Came out on a Thursday and looked at my system. Went over all of my options of repairs or replacements. Explained both the advantages and disadvantages of both options in detail so I could make an informed decision. Came back out the following Monday to do the work. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Paradise was very responsive and was able to come same day. Very professional, nice and honest - would recommend to anyone!
Jonathan and the guys did a fast and efficient job fixing our ac. Always a worry when it goes out at the start of summer in Alabama. I highly recommend paradise heating and air to fix your ac problem. Communicated arrival time, explained the issue thoroughly, also didn't break the bank! Thanks again paradise!
We were in dire situation last last summer when our AC system went off with no repair really feasible. We took some time to shop around despite of awful heat in the house. Johnatan from Paradise Heating and Air is honest, articulate, skillful professional. He offered the best value and cost, the easiest ways to pay, and great service plan. I would recommend everyone to contact Johnatan and Paradise Heating and Air for the AC service.
Jon showed up as planned and committed to. A big plus was that he had the components on his truck to fix the broken part. Had my heat running after a 1 hour service call. Yes, I would recommend Paradise Heating and Air ...5 Star rec.
Did a very thorough job of servicing my system. Will use again.
On time, explained everything very well. Came up with come options to repair my system rather than replace. Thank you.
I honestly cannot tell you just how highly I recommend these folks. Five stars are not enough! They are friendly, professional, very competitively priced and a real pleasure to work with. I've had them out twice, once for a split unit in my sunroom and then today for my main unit and both times they did an exceptional job.
Always polite. They were at my house at 8:30 pm making sure we had cool air.
Wonder job Persistent and thorough in evaluating the problem and correcting the problem
Jonathan to the rescue! A quick response saved us from a miserable night. Jonathan had us fixed in a matter of minutes! Highly recommend!
I have been extremely pleased with the work performed and customer service.
Wonderful
Replaced a furnace vent pipe and roof cap, Jonathan and Matt were competent technicians and explained everything to me clearly and the quote and the final price were the same. comparing quotes, they were very competitive and provided a high degree of professionalism on the job. Thank you very much.!
Routine service plus setting changes plus education plus rec's for the future. Spent much more time than normal to satisfy my real needs.
Tech was on time, very professional, courteous, knowledgeable addressed my concerns about the system. Will definitely be recommending Paradise Heating and Air.
Jon and his team have renewed my faith in the HVAC industry. They service two homes with aging Heating & Cooling systems, and they've gone above & beyond in both cases. From surveying the attics for proper insulation, to accessing the basements and crawl space for any issues that might need to be addressed, I'm confident I'm in good hands with Paradise Heating & Air.
Quick response for broken AC. Found the problem quickly and was able to fix on the same visit. They also recommended some improvements based on another issue I was having. Overall great experience.
Excellent company! Jonathan and Matt were professional, friendly, and extremely efficient. They had my HVAC system replaced in 4 hours! If my other unit ever bites the dust, they will be the ones I call for a new one!! I highly recommend them.
Jonathan was very professional and knowledgeable, with a great personality. I will be doing business in the future with his company. I immediately signed up with the company’s annual service plan.
