CFM

« Back to Glossary Index

CFM stands for cubic feet per minute, which is a standard unit of measurement for airflow in HVAC systems. It represents the volume of air moving through a space or ductwork within one minute. Proper airflow, measured in CFM, is essential for the efficient operation of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems. A typical guideline for air conditioning systems is approximately 400 CFM of airflow per ton of cooling capacity. This ensures the system can effectively remove heat and maintain desired indoor comfort levels.

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.

Deanne Guthrie

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.

Greg DuPree

These guys were great! They came out same day in this 95 degree weather and had my AC back up and running in no time!

Donna Butler

On time. Responsive. Seemed confident with expertise. Explained issues well. Serviced and repaired older ac system and did not try to sell me a new one. Kept everyone cool for Mothers Day.

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 🥰.

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!

Qing Jin

It was impressive that Jonathan provided the fairly evaluation on our existing attic insulation. He is also very knowledgeable about HAVC and Duct work. We don’t need anything now, but we will contact Paradise Heating and Air in the future. Appreciate for their visiting today!

Jon Hinds

On time, explained everything very well. Came up with come options to repair my system rather than replace. Thank you.

Amanda Bradley Pullen

I cannot say enough good things about Paradise Heating and Air. Jonathan was so kind and patient in explaining everything to us. They are very fair with pricing and are super knowledgeable. They do much more than just heating and air!

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.

Diane Natale

Best in the business. I have used this company several times. They are always responsive and get repairs handled quickly. Jonathan is our tech and he does a great job explaining everything.

Pat Turner

If only all of our consumer needs were met like the service provided by the team at Paradise Heating and Air. From the very cordial and helpful Paradise employee who answered our after-hours, weekend phone call to the technical service provided by Jonathan and Matthew on Monday - we couldn’t be more pleased. We were informed every step of the way via text of all pertinent information including: scheduled appointment time, tech arrival time with the id’s of technicians who would be performing the work. Jonathan and Matthew arrived five minutes earlier than the one hour scheduled window (no no-shows here), did what they had to do and didn’t use weaponry to determine labor costs. In a land where customers have seemingly been disregarded and led to die, the folks of Paradise have obviously seen themselves and decided to do things a different and better way.

Ronald L Speck

Great service, price, and quality workmanship! Highly recommend! I will use them again.

"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."

Jerry Smith

On time. Made excellent recommendations. Work performed quickly and reasonably.

Kathleen Smith

How nice is it when someone not only wants your business but goes above and beyond to earn it? That’s Paradise! My issue wasn’t an emergency but the company had a sense of urgency just the same to schedule me quickly, bump my appointment up if I wanted, stay in communication until arrival and tackle the job immediately. They even helped me with another task completely unrelated to the service call just because they saw a need to help. They get all my business now. Please give them yours. You’ll not regret it.

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.

Evan Pezent

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.

Desiree’ Revill

Very professional and efficient.

Joshua Bergeron

Paradise Heating and Air fixed out upstairs unit by cleaning out the condenser coil and replacing the capacitor. Didn’t no over charge or try to up sell me on anything. Very trustworthy company.

Perry Koonce

Jonathan provided another on-time, courteous and professional annual maintenance service call. Paradise Heating and Air provides great service at a great value.

Robby Brumberg

Rama Ankam

Our Condo AC unit was leaking through attic, made online request to Paradise Heating and Voila! within 5 minutes my request was answered and a service was scheduled. Mr. Jonathan and his assistant Mr. Matt showed up before their scheduled time and did an outstanding job. They both were very professional and kind. Mr. Jonathan is a true American technical craftsman, he was quick to identify the problem and fix it in no time. During this time, one of my neighboring Condo owner requested him to look at his AC unit as it wasn't cooling or working properly and Mr. Jonathan agreed to look at it and fixed it. The price was more than reasonable for me and Mr. Jonathan told my neighbor that he will waive the service fee because they were already there to fix mine which saved him money and made him very happy. I don't think I have seen anyone this professional and reasonable in last couple of decades. I wish everyone at Paradise Heating the best in this world. God Bless!

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.

Brittany Campbell

We so appreciate the quick and friendly service we received, where our air conditioning was fixed with a major issue before anyone else even would have been able to come out to evaluate! Reliable service, easy financing… Looking forward to doing business with this company in the future. Would definitely recommend.

Jason Motley

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.

Cody Moore

A/C fan went out my house. I called Paradise Heating and Air they came right out and in about 20 minutes we were up and running again. Very professional, very affordable. I would ***HIGHLY*** recommend.

Jonathan Pitts

Great prompt service fair price. Thanks..

bruce stanford

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

David Camp

A/C drains clogged and were draining into the basement. Put request in on line at 8 PM and response was great. Work crew responded 7 AM and work repair was done quickly. Great service.

Nathaniel Reed

Great company the owner came out on a Saturday and fixed an electrical issue with my hvac system. Amazing service super comfortable with him in my home. I will be using paradise in the future and being a plumber I will refer with bells on…

Colin Q

Jonathan provides excellent service and is an expert of his craft. Most importantly, he is honest with diagnostics and recommendations - a trait that is hard to find in the HVAC industry. Austin does a great job too!

Ramona Martin

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!!!

Steve

Always prompt and polite. Not to mention they know what they’re doing

Jean

They came after hours; were super efficient and courteous. Highly recommend

Ryan Brewer

I am extremely impressed with Paradise Heating and Air. I was skeptical of filling out an online form for an appointment but was very pleased to get a response in minutes and service to my house within 2 hours of filling out the form. Jonathan was very knowledgeable and fixed our issue promptly. I highly recommend them!

Jill Byrd

Jonathan arrived promptly and accessed the problem. He went above & beyond to trouble shoot the issue and gave me options. He was able to install a condensate pump for me in the same visit. Would highly recommend based on my experience.

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. 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!

Nathan Stuckey

Paradise Heating & Air made getting my air conditioning up and running a priority and actually REALLY showed up earlier than scheduled like they said they would try to. The very nice person that schedules their appointment REALLY did work me in earlier and called me from her car on her way home from work to do it. I couldn’t believe it- customer service in 2024!? Wow. And the owner who serviced my system answered every one of my questions, endured me standing over his shoulder including walking me through how condensation works 😬. GREAT experience and my air conditioning company moving forward.

Mark Hamblen

Did a very thorough job of servicing my system. Will use again.

D Avery

I was very pleased with the inspection from Paradise H&A for my church. We have an old, HVAC system that parts are no longer available to repair. Jonathan the owner came out personally to check it. He was experienced, friendly, professional, and was very thorough in checking out the furnace, compressors, air handlers and duct system. He gave me a 'ballpark figure' for replacement with several options. He explained the options to me and what would be required for installation. I appreciated the time he and his helper took to provide a 'free' thorough inspection. Thank you Jonathan and Paradise Heating and Air for putting your customers first!

Nicole Dent

These guys got the job done! Came in did not try to sell me a unit but fixed my existing unit and I appreciate them so much bc it was the hottest day of the year and my unit was completely out. I recommend 💯

James Dull

Johnathan came out today to look over my system. He went over and beyond to explain things to me. He is an honest and respectful individual. I am happy I was able to find Paradise Heating and Air. Also he installed a brand new thermostat for me. Johnathan saved me so much. Thank you for Paradise Heating and Air.

Edna Cumbee-Montieth

Jonathan is the BEST! We were having an issue with our HVAC not draining properly. Jonathan and Matt came out, assessed the problem and fixed it immediately. Not only were they very courteous, the service was quick and efficient! Jonathan’s experience speaks for itself! We highly recommend Paradise for all your HVAC needs. Trevor and Edna Cumbee-Montieth Hoover, AL

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!

Focused40 Martín

Very professional company. Jonathan and team did a fantastic job insulating our home and went above and beyond to ensure we were satisfied with their work and the results. 10/10 highly recommend and will hire again.
