What sets our technicians apart is straightforward: they show up prepared, they diagnose the problem correctly the first time, and they explain what they found before any work begins. We started this company in 2012 as Pooler was growing fast and the demand for reliable, local HVAC service was outpacing what the area had. We grew alongside this community, adding experienced technicians and expanding our service area as more homeowners, landlords, and business owners needed a contractor they could count on.
We work with a wide range of customers. Residential homeowners make up the heart of our work, but we also serve property managers overseeing rental portfolios and commercial clients who need their systems running without interruption. All work is performed by qualified HVAC technicians who understand both the technical side of the job and what it means to work inside someone's home or business with care and respect.
We serve all of Chatham County, including Savannah, Rincon, Bloomingdale, Garden City, Port Wentworth, and Guyton. Clear communication from the first call to the final test is how we operate on every job, regardless of size.
Call and we'll handle the furnace, the AC, and the ductwork.
Noticing uneven temperatures or a spike in energy bills? Those are usually signs that something in your HVAC system needs attention. Whether you need a single repair, a seasonal tune-up, or a full system replacement, we handle the complete scope of residential and commercial HVAC work. Homeowners searching for HVAC service near me, HVAC repair near me, or a commercial HVAC contractor near me will find that we cover all of it, from a single-room fix to a building-wide installation.
Central air conditioning carries a heavy load in coastal Georgia. When a unit stops cooling, the problem could be anywhere from a refrigerant leak to a failing compressor to a clogged evaporator coil. Our technicians diagnose the issue accurately before recommending a repair or replacement. A typical visit includes a full system check, refrigerant leak diagnosis if needed, condenser and compressor inspection, and evaporator coil cleaning or repair where applicable.
If your system is older and repairs are adding up, we will walk you through your options for central AC replacement so you can make an informed decision. We also handle same-day AC repair when the schedule allows, because a broken air conditioner in Pooler in July is not something that can wait.
Coastal Georgia winters are mild compared to much of the country, but reliable heating still matters when temperatures drop. Heat pumps are common and well-suited to this climate. They handle both heating and cooling efficiently, which makes them a practical choice for most homes in the area. We repair and install heat pumps of all sizes, and we troubleshoot the full range of problems: a heat pump not heating, a heat pump not cooling, airflow issues, and uneven temperatures throughout the home.
We also service and repair furnaces for homes that have them, and we handle full heating system replacement when a unit has reached the end of its service life. If you have an emergency heating situation, we have same-day availability and after-hours response for no-heat calls.
Mini-split systems are a strong solution for older homes without existing ductwork, room additions, converted garages, and spaces that need independent temperature control. We install and repair ductless mini-split systems from a single-zone setup to multi-zone configurations. If you have been searching for mini split installation near me or need a repair on an existing ductless unit, we can schedule a visit and give you a clear picture of what the work involves and what it will cost.
Leaky ductwork is one of the most common and most overlooked sources of energy waste in a home. When conditioned air escapes through gaps and disconnected sections before it reaches the living space, your system works harder and your bills go up. We perform duct repair and sealing as a standalone service or as part of a larger system job, and we explain what we find before we start.
Smart thermostat and programmable thermostat installation is another service we handle regularly. Upgrading an old thermostat can improve comfort and reduce energy use without replacing the whole system.
Indoor air quality is a real concern in a climate like Pooler's. High humidity, pollen, and heat put stress on both the people inside and the equipment trying to condition the air. We install whole-home air filtration systems, air purifiers, and whole-home dehumidifiers to help manage humidity levels and keep the air inside cleaner. Experienced technicians who respect your home handle every part of this work, from the initial assessment to the final installation check.
We'll diagnose it, fix it, and test it before we leave.
Offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and multi-unit properties all depend on reliable HVAC systems to keep tenants comfortable and operations running. We service and repair commercial systems including rooftop units, perform commercial HVAC maintenance on a scheduled basis, and respond to urgent repair calls when a system goes down. Property managers who need a dependable contractor for multiple locations will find that we communicate clearly, show up on time, and keep the work moving.
If you're not sure your system can keep up, a seasonal inspection is the right place to start. Georgia's cooling season is long and demanding, and a system that has not been serviced since last year may be working harder than it should. A spring AC tune-up covers refrigerant levels, electrical connections, coil condition, airflow, and thermostat calibration. A fall heating check prepares your heat pump or furnace for the cooler months ahead and catches small issues before they become expensive failures.
When something goes wrong suddenly, we are available for emergency HVAC repair around the clock. A system that goes down in the middle of a heat wave or stops heating on a cold night is an urgent situation, and we treat it that way. When you call with a no-heat or no-cool emergency, you will hear back quickly, and we will give you an honest timeline and a clear explanation of what we find. We stand behind every system we service, and that commitment applies to emergency calls just as much as scheduled appointments.
You book it. We fix it. Simple as that.
Let us handle the install and the permits.
Calling an HVAC company doesn't have to be stressful, and pricing is often the biggest source of anxiety before that first call. We keep it simple. Before any work begins, we walk through what we found, what the repair or installation involves, and what it will cost. There are no surprise charges added at the end of a job. If something unexpected comes up during the work, we stop, explain it, and get your approval before moving forward.
Requesting an estimate or scheduling a diagnostic visit is straightforward. We explain any diagnostic fees upfront so you know what to expect. Whether you are calling about an AC repair estimate, a heat pump replacement quote, or the cost of ductwork repair, we give you real numbers based on the actual job, not a vague range designed to get us in the door. Code-compliant HVAC work on every job is not a bonus feature; it is the standard we hold ourselves to on every visit.
Call and we'll get the air running right.
We have been based in Pooler for 14 years, and this area is home. The hot, humid summers along the Georgia coast put serious demand on air conditioning equipment, and the mild but real winters mean heating systems still need to be in good shape. We understand what local systems go through because we live and work here too.
Our service area covers Chatham County broadly. We regularly work in Savannah, Rincon, Bloomingdale, Garden City, Port Wentworth, and Guyton, and we extend to communities near the South Carolina border as well. If you are searching for a local HVAC contractor, an HVAC company near me, or an HVAC technician near me anywhere in this part of the coast, we are the team that knows this area and is ready to help.
We have been doing this work in the Pooler area since 2012, which puts us at 14 years of local HVAC service. The business grew alongside this community as Pooler expanded and demand for reliable local contractors increased. Every job since then has been handled by our own technicians, not subcontracted out.
Yes, our technicians live and work in this area, so they know Chatham County well. That familiarity means less time navigating and more time focused on the job. It also means they understand the local housing stock, the common equipment types in the area, and what the coastal Georgia climate does to HVAC systems over time.
We stand behind every system we service. If something we repaired or installed is not performing the way it should, we want to know about it and we will make it right. We do not close out a job until the system is running correctly, and that standard applies to every visit regardless of size.
Our technicians focus specifically on heating and cooling work, which means they have seen the full range of problems that come up in this climate and know how to diagnose them accurately. All work is performed by qualified HVAC technicians who treat every home and commercial property with care. We also invest in proper diagnostic tools so technicians are not guessing when they arrive.
Clear communication from the first call to the final test is how we approach every visit. The technician explains what they found before starting work, keeps you updated if anything unexpected comes up, and walks you through the completed job before leaving. You always know what was done and why.
Our core service area is Chatham County, but we also extend service to nearby communities, including areas near the South Carolina border such as Hardeeville. If you are outside Chatham County and wondering whether we cover your location, call (912) 742-8959 and we will give you a straight answer.
We route technicians based on location and urgency, with emergency and no-cool or no-heat situations taking priority. Scheduled maintenance and non-urgent repairs are worked into the day around those calls. When you book, we give you a realistic service window and follow up if anything changes.
Our trucks carry the tools and common parts needed for most repair calls so technicians can complete standard jobs in a single visit. Less common parts may need to be ordered, and we will let you know upfront if that is the case. The goal is always to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.
When you call, a local person answers. You are reaching someone who knows this area and can speak directly to scheduling, service options, and what to expect. We're your neighbors, and your comfort is personal to us.
Ready to get the comfort back? Air Pro Heating, Cooling, & Refrigeration is here when you need us, whether that is a scheduled maintenance visit, a same-day repair, or an after-hours emergency.

| Service | What the Service Includes | Best For | Good to Know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Heat Pump Installation | load assessment and equipment sizing, heat pump and air handler installation, ductless mini-split installation, full system commissioning and test | homeowners replacing older equipment or adding heating and cooling to a space without existing ductwork | Heat pumps are well matched to coastal Georgia's mild winters and long cooling seasons; ductless mini-splits are a practical option where ductwork is not in place |
| Indoor Air Quality & Air Filtration | air purifier installation, UV air purifier setup, whole-home filtration systems, allergen and contaminant reduction | households dealing with allergy symptoms, dust buildup, or air that feels stale or irritating | Pooler's combination of heat, humidity, and pollen makes air filtration a practical upgrade, not just a luxury |
| AC Repair & Service | refrigerant diagnosis and leak checks, condenser and compressor inspection, evaporator coil cleaning, airflow and performance testing | homeowners and property managers dealing with warm air, short-cycling, or a system that won't restart | Pooler summers put real hours on AC equipment; catching a small refrigerant or airflow problem early usually costs far less than waiting for a full breakdown |
| Whole-Home Dehumidification & Humidity Control | whole-home dehumidifier installation, integration with existing HVAC equipment, humidity level calibration, ongoing moisture management | Pooler and Chatham County homes that feel clammy even when the thermostat is set correctly | High indoor humidity supports mold growth and dust mites; a whole-home system addresses the problem in every room, not just one |
| Seasonal Maintenance & Tune-Ups | full system inspection and cleaning, electrical connection testing, refrigerant level check, filter service and blower inspection | homeowners and property managers who want to stay ahead of repairs and extend equipment life | Spring tune-ups before the heavy cooling season and fall tune-ups before heating demand picks up are the most effective schedule for this area |
| Heat Pump Repair & Service | short-cycle and airflow diagnosis, refrigerant and coil inspection, reversing valve and controls check, full system test after repair | Pooler homeowners with a heat pump that is not heating or cooling properly | Heat pumps handle both heating and cooling in coastal Georgia, so a problem in either mode deserves prompt attention |
| High-Efficiency Central AC Replacement | aging system removal, high-efficiency unit sizing and installation, airflow and humidity performance check, post-install efficiency verification | homeowners with an older central AC that runs constantly, struggles to keep up, or is driving up monthly energy costs | Pooler's long cooling season means the efficiency gains from a newer unit add up faster here than in most parts of the country |
| Ductwork Repair & Sealing | duct leak inspection and sealing, insulation assessment, airflow balancing, ductwork section repair or replacement | homes with uneven temperatures, high energy bills, or rooms that never seem to cool down | Leaking ducts in attic spaces are especially common in this climate; sealed ducts improve both comfort and efficiency |

How do I know if my AC needs to be repaired or replaced?
A few factors point toward replacement rather than repair: the system is more than 12 to 15 years old, repair costs are approaching half the price of a new unit, or the system has needed multiple repairs in a short period. If the equipment is newer and the problem is isolated, repair usually makes more sense. When we come out, we give you an honest read on both options so you can decide with full information.
Why is one room in my home hotter or colder than the rest?
Uneven temperatures usually trace back to duct leaks, blocked or undersized vents, or an improperly sized system. In older Pooler homes, ductwork that runs through unconditioned attic space is a common source of the problem. We inspect the ductwork and airflow distribution to find out where the conditioned air is going before it reaches the room you are trying to cool or heat.
How often should I schedule maintenance or a tune-up?
Twice a year is the right schedule for most homes in this area: once in the spring before the heavy cooling season begins and once in the fall before heating demand picks up. Pooler's long summers put significant hours on AC equipment, so a spring checkup is especially important. Consistent maintenance is also the most reliable way to catch small problems before they turn into emergency calls.
Same-Day and Emergency Availability
We offer same-day and after-hours HVAC service for no-cool and no-heat situations. Our goal is to get a qualified technician to you as quickly as possible, because a system failure in a Pooler summer is not something we expect you to wait on.
What does a seasonal tune-up actually include?
During a maintenance visit, our technicians inspect the full system, clean components, test electrical connections, check refrigerant levels, service the air handler and blower, and swap out filters. We document what we find so you have a clear record of your system's condition. If something looks like it is heading toward a problem, we explain it before it becomes an emergency.
What are the signs of a refrigerant or airflow problem?
Warm air at the vents when the AC is running, a system that runs constantly without cooling the house, ice forming on the refrigerant lines, or a noticeable hissing sound near the unit are all signs worth calling about. Airflow problems often show up as weak air delivery from registers or a system that seems to cycle on and off more than it should. We diagnose both refrigerant and airflow issues during a service visit.
Is a heat pump a good choice for a Pooler home?
Yes, heat pumps are well suited to coastal Georgia's climate. They handle both heating and cooling in a single unit and operate efficiently through the mild winters this area typically sees. For homes without existing ductwork, ductless mini-split systems are a practical alternative that we install and service as well. We size and select equipment based on your home's actual load, not just what was there before.
Code-Compliant Work on Every Job
Every installation and repair we complete is performed to code, and we document what we find so you have a clear record. We stand behind every system we service, and we do not close out a job until the system is running the way it should.
Do I need to be home when the technician comes out?
It is helpful to have someone present so we can explain what we found and discuss options directly. If that is not possible, we can work with you on access arrangements. The technician needs to reach the outdoor unit, the air handler or furnace, and the thermostat. Let us know your situation when you call and we will figure out a workable plan.
How does pricing work, and will I get a quote before work starts?
The cost of a repair depends on the type of equipment, the complexity of the problem, the parts involved, and how long the job takes. We do not quote a number before we see what is going on, because an honest estimate requires an honest look at the system. When the technician arrives, they explain what they found and what it will cost before any work begins. You decide how to proceed, and we do not start work until you are ready.
Transparent Pricing Before Work Begins
We explain what we found and what it will cost before any work starts. You approve the work, then we proceed. There are no surprises at the end of the job.
Can you come out the same day my system goes down?
Same-day service is available when the schedule allows, and we prioritize situations where the system is completely down. We operate every day from 7:00 AM to 9:30 PM, with after-hours response available for no-cool and no-heat emergencies outside those windows. Call us and we will tell you what availability looks like and get someone out as quickly as possible.
Why does my system keep short-cycling, turning on and off frequently?
Short-cycling is often a sign of an oversized system, a refrigerant problem, a dirty evaporator coil, or a failing thermostat. It puts extra wear on the compressor and reduces the system's ability to manage humidity, which is a real problem in Chatham County's climate. We diagnose the underlying cause rather than just addressing the symptom, so the fix actually holds.
How do whole-home dehumidification systems work, and do I need one?
A whole-home dehumidifier integrates with your existing HVAC equipment and pulls excess moisture from the air throughout the house, running alongside the cooling system. Unlike a portable unit that handles one room, it manages humidity in every space all day. If your home feels clammy even when the thermostat is set correctly, or if you notice condensation on windows or musty odors, it is worth a conversation. Controlling humidity also improves indoor air quality by reducing the conditions that support mold and airborne irritants.
Call (912) 742-8959 to talk through your system, get a quote, or schedule service; we will give you a straight answer and get the air running right.
