The most seasonal homes in our area
22.5% of Venice housing units are seasonal homes, the highest share of any city we serve (ACS 2024). A home closed up for the summer still needs its air conditioner to control humidity, or mold and mildew can set in. If your system runs unattended for months, a correctly sized unit with a clean condensate drain and a float switch matters more than a high efficiency rating.
Venice took two storm surges two weeks apart in 2024. The USGS sensor at the Venice Fishing Pier measured 5.71 feet above high tide in Hurricane Helene and 6.74 feet in Hurricane Milton. Milton also produced the strongest sustained wind reported in Florida, 91 mph gusting to 107 mph, on Venice Beach. If an outdoor unit sat in surge water, have it inspected before you run it.
Permits and installation in Venice
The City of Venice Building Department issues permits inside city limits. Homes in South Venice and Venice Gardens are outside the city and permit through Sarasota County Planning and Development Services (941-861-5000).
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?
