Frequently Asked Questions
Is Southern Air the area's main Tempstar installer?
Southern Air, Inc. is described as the Tuscaloosa area's primary Tempstar installer. Tempstar is the residential HVAC line the firm has long carried, supplemented by Mitsubishi Electric ductless systems for retrofits where ductwork is impractical. That brand focus lets the company stock parts deeply and dispatch service trucks faster on Tempstar equipment.
Does Southern Air have an in-house sheet metal shop?
Yes, Southern Air runs an in-house sheet metal shop for custom ductwork on Tuscaloosa-area HVAC installations. In-house fabrication is unusual locally and is useful for renovation projects in older homes and for commercial accounts where stock duct sizes do not fit the design. The capability shortens lead times on custom runs.
Does Southern Air service mobile home HVAC?
Yes, Southern Air services mobile home HVAC equipment, which not every Tuscaloosa-area shop handles. Mobile home systems use specific equipment configurations and ducting that differ from site-built homes, and Southern Air has carried the capability since the company was founded in 1990. The service is part of the firm's broader residential book of work.
Does Southern Air install generators?
Southern Air installs Generac whole-home standby generators alongside its core HVAC work in Tuscaloosa. The crew sizes the generator, sets the pad, runs the gas line, and wires the automatic transfer switch into the existing electrical panel. Combining generator and HVAC work under one contractor is convenient when both upgrades are happening together.
Does Southern Air do duct cleaning?
Yes, Southern Air offers duct cleaning as part of its indoor air quality services for Tuscaloosa-area homeowners. The service removes accumulated dust, debris, and biological growth from the supply and return ducts. Duct cleaning is sometimes paired with new filtration or UV equipment installation when homeowners are addressing allergies or stale indoor air.
When was Southern Air founded?
Southern Air, Inc. was founded in 1990 as a family-owned Tuscaloosa HVAC firm and has remained family-operated since. Roughly three and a half decades of business have built up the company's residential, commercial, and refrigeration work along with the in-house sheet metal shop. The Commercial Drive shop has been the long-time base.
