The biggest market we serve, built around canals

Cape Coral is the largest city in our service area, with over 100,000 housing units and about 215,000 residents, and one of the fastest-growing large cities in the U.S. It was ninth-fastest from 2021 to 2022, according to the Census Bureau. Its homes are relatively new (median year built 2000), so many are now on their first replacement.

The city has more than 400 miles of freshwater and saltwater canals. Outdoor units near saltwater sit in salty, humid air, which speeds corrosion. Rinse the condenser coil with fresh water every few months. Note that Goodman's warranty excludes damage from corrosive atmospheres. Hurricane Ian brought 6 to 9 feet of surge to Cape Coral and Pine Island in 2022.

Cape Coral is served by LCEC, not FPL, so FPL's $200 rebate does not apply here, and LCEC does not list a central AC rebate. A compliant, correctly sized system at a lower price is usually the better value for Cape Coral homes.

Permits and installation in Cape Coral

The City of Cape Coral Building Division lists a dedicated "Air Conditioning Change Out" permit at $100 plus a 2.5% state surcharge. Cape Coral is about an hour from our warehouse, so most customers arrange delivery or have their installer pick up.

An AC change-out needs a mechanical permit. A licensed contractor normally pulls it. A homeowner can pull it as an owner-builder for their own home under Florida law, but the refrigerant work still requires an EPA 608-certified technician, and Goodman's warranty requires dealer installation for units ordered online or by phone. Read can I install my own AC in Florida?

Pick the right size

Our systems cover typical Florida homes from about 900 to 3,000 square feet: 2 ton, 2.5 ton, 3 ton, 3.5 ton, 4 ton and 5 ton. All are AHRI-certified at or above Florida's SEER2 minimum. See the AC cost guide for installed costs, or browse other Southwest Florida locations we serve.
