Air Conditioner

« Back to Glossary Index

An appliance within an HVAC system designed to regulate indoor air temperature, humidity, and quality. Specifically, an air conditioner works to cool your home by removing heat from the indoor air and transferring it outdoors. This is achieved through a refrigeration cycle that involves a refrigerant circulating between the evaporator coil (indoor unit) and the condenser coil (outdoor unit). As indoor air is pulled across the cold evaporator coil, heat is absorbed by the refrigerant, cooling the air before it is recirculated into your home. This process can also reduce humidity levels, creating a more comfortable indoor environment.

I want to thank Paradise and Jonathan for being able to come out and help with AC issues. They quoted on a better unit and $ 1,000's of dollars less than the other quote I had received. They will be my first call for all future issues

FIRST RATE. TOOK CARE OF ME ASAP. WILL USE IN FUTURE FOR NEW UNIT

Kathy Robinson

Awesome service. I just signed a maintenance agreement with another company and had my HVAC systems serviced. Two weeks later one of my units wasn’t cooling. I called the company that I had a maintenance agreement with and they couldn’t service my units for two weeks. I called Paradise Heating and they fixed my unit that night. Will never use another company again.

Deborah Atchison

Had what I thought was an issue with my furnace at MIDNIGHT and was in a panic trying to decipher what I thought was an error code. Called numerous places advertising 24/7 assistance and no one could/would help. Jonathan Perkinson with Paradise actually called me back, explained it all to me and kept me from shutting it all down on a cold night. So kind and helpful!!! Highly recommended!

Martha Neighbors

Paradise Heating & Air was conscientious about scheduling and doing a thorough job in installation and servicing.

Excellent experience!

Patrick Tucker

Paradise did a fantastic job! I requested an appointment online, and I had an appointment scheduled for the next day in just a few minutes. I did call to talk with the person that booked the appointment with some questions about pricing and how they charge for the work they would be doing, and she answered all of my questions. They arrived on time, and very quickly identified the issues with the system. They had it repaired and back up and running in no time. They then spent a lot of time answering all of my questions and looking at additional issues I have. I never felt rushed, and they answered all of my questions in detail. They charged me the price they said they would, and the system is back up and running. I will definitely use them again.

Rachel White

The guys were on time, took their time reviewing the history of our units with me before starting, and took great care examining our systems. I highly recommend Paradise!

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 really appreciated that they didn't try to oversell me on something I didn't need. It's clear that Mr. Jonathan is knowledgeable and truly cares about their customers. 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."

I am grateful for the service provided by Paradise Heating and Air. I was impressed by the prompt response to my initial email inquiry and the follow-up communication before the appointment. The professionalism and kindness shown to me during my AC repair appointment were greatly appreciated."

Sunil Prabhu

Excellent work and reasonably charges.

andrew franklin

I called paradise the temperature was rising in our home on 105 degree day, called on a Saturday morning and was out that afternoon checking after working pretty late which is great and shows dedication. Fortunately there was nothing wrong with the air conditioning the culprit is being an old house with improper insulation and ventilation in the attic space. Jonathan was very helpful and professional. Always fast to respond and give advice on what to do to help when there is an issue that isn’t related to the HVAC having issues.

B. Keith Putt

Excellent company! Personnel are professional, personable, and proficient. Technicians actually rescheduled for an earlier appointment and promptly repaired the problem. I will definitely be talking to Jennifer and Jonathan again!!

Erica Harris

Highly recommend Jonathan and Matthew. They were able to come same day when my air stopped blowing cool air none other than the first week of consistent upper 80s weather. They were on time and from the brief description I shared over the phone they knew right where to start. They had the part that needed to be replaced and I had cool air flowing in less than an hour! Thanks guys will use you again.

Malachi Ray

Great honest and helpful people.

Kellie L

I can not say enough great things about Jonathon and Paradise Heating and Air. From the moment they answered the phone I knew I made the right choice. This team is top notch! I called on Monday for attic insulation, Tuesday Jonathon came out and spent time showing me what I needed and Thursday the job is done! Clean, professional and treated me and my home like family. I will be using them for EVERYTHING they specialize in. You CAN NOT GO WRONG with this company! 1000% satisfied and never have been so happy to spend money on insulation 🥰.

Daniel Maddox

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!

HHA A

Paradise heating and air came out to my place within 30 minutes from the time I called put in a water sensor for the airflow in the attic and replaced the Capacitor for upstairs AC unit, Johnathon was very professional and very honest at first he thought I needed freon for one of my units But after it working for a while, he saw that it didn’t need any he could’ve charged me and I would’ve never known but he didn’t he came in and told the freon levels were OK and just needed time to show the correct pressure level. Also their price were very reasonable. Don’t let the service fee scare you, you’re getting an honest company that will come out and tell you exactly what you need and how much it’s going to cost and if you decide to go with them, that service fee will be included with the work they do.

David R.

Outstanding service, knowledge and dedication. I was very impressed all around.

daniel e earnest

Jonathon arrived within 30 minutes of me contacting Paradise. I had a late evening service request due to my unit not properly operating. Jennifer at Paradise was professional and so understanding of how uncomfortable and concerned my family was due the heat. Jonathan had the problem figured out in under 30 minutes of arriving and explained everything very clearly before proceeding. Will be using this company again. Very satisfied!

James Coco

Jonathan to the rescue! After hours quick response saved us from a miserable night. Jonathan had us fixed in a matter of minutes! Highly recommend!

John Wright

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!

Rachael Cowan

Jonathan has always been very respectful and helpful when he comes to service our HVAC! They are prompt to get you on the schedule, have fair pricing, and he is great about explaining what he did to fix your problems. This is an honest company that makes you feel valued.

Lorrie Kruse

The most honest hvac company I've seen in decades. They had every opportunity to tell me I needed a new unit, I was 100% sure that I did. Its an old unit and could not keep up when it got really hot. Instead they recommended adding insulation in attic and found some broken duct work.

John Wills

The crew gave me a detailed explanation of their findings and recommendations and I knew exactly what work needed to be performed and what could be put off for a little while. Super excited to get this 20 year old house all sealed up for the remainder of the summer and the oncoming winter.

Zeke Fason

Kyndall Alexander

I would definitely recommend this company they were very knowledgeable and a decent price!

Cynthia Belyeu

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.

Thor Audiss

Amazing service!

Karen Stough

from the first phone call Paradise has been professional and very easy to work with. Arrived on time, explained the issue and gave an option of repair or replace. Emailed a quote and we decided to replace. They were the lowest estimate. Would definitely recommend.
