Heating and cooling in Tamarac
In Tamarac's Schedule of Permit Fees, Exhibit A (R-2021-137), effective 01/01/22, replacement of an air conditioning split system is $190.00 and an air handler or condensing unit replacement is $122.00. A package unit under 5 tons is $150.00 for ground installation and $200.00 on a rooftop. Ductwork attached to an A/C permit is $122.00. Ductwork only is $190.00. The schedule dates to 2022, so ask the Building Department whether it's still in use.
At 6011 Nob Hill Road, First Floor, the Building Department takes calls at (954) 597-3420 and email at Permit@Tamarac.gov. Lobby hours differ from office hours. Its office hours are 7:30 to 4:30 Monday to Thursday and 7:30 to 3:30 on Friday; plan review runs Monday to Thursday 7:30 to 8:00 and 2:30 to 4:00, and Fast Track is Thursday 1:30 to 3:30. ePermits is the system for applications, and plans go through Electronic Plan Review.
A city permit doesn't confirm homeowners' or condominium association approval, the Permits and Inspections page warns. Get that separately. The Building Code Information page calls the 2023 Florida Building Code, effective December 31, 2023, the current code; that is the 8th Edition. Broward County maintains the local amendments and the city enforces them, yet the city fee schedule still cites the county amendments to the 7th Edition (2020). On that 2022 schedule, a split system replacement is the $190.00 line.
What heating and cooling work costs near Tamarac
Nobody's given us a quote for work in Tamarac yet, so this page can't show a city price. The Florida page lists the estimates with what technicians earn (the Florida mean in May 2025 BLS wage data is $27.55 an hour, which is their pay, not your price) and some city and county permit fees. How we estimate costs.
Permits for heating and cooling work in Tamarac
Florida cities and counties issue the permit for replacing an air conditioner, heat pump or furnace, and each sets its own fee; the state's $7,500 small-job permit exemption leaves out mechanical work. DBPR certifies or registers the air-conditioning contractor, so ask for that license number as well as what your permit office needs.
