New Construction HVAC in Gainesville & North Central Florida

HVAC system design and installation for new builds — sized and specified right from the blueprint.

New Construction HVAC by Bertie Air in Gainesville, Florida

The comfort and efficiency of a new home is decided long before anyone moves in — at the blueprint, when the HVAC is designed and sized. Bertie Heating & Air partners with builders and homeowners across North Central Florida to design and install systems that fit the build: correct load calculations, well-routed ductwork, and high-efficiency equipment specified for the home’s glass, orientation, and layout. Get it right at construction and the home is comfortable and efficient for decades.

What's included

  • HVAC design from the blueprint stage
  • Computerized load calculations for correct sizing
  • Efficient ductwork design and routing
  • High-efficiency and inverter equipment options
  • Coordination with builders and trades
  • Clean, code-compliant installation and inspection

How we work

  1. 1

    Design

    We design the system and ductwork from the plans, sized to the home’s real loads.

  2. 2

    Coordinate

    We schedule rough-in and trim around the build with the other trades.

  3. 3

    Install

    Equipment and ducts go in clean and code-compliant, ready for inspection.

  4. 4

    Commission

    We start up, balance, and verify the system, and register the warranty.

Problems we solve

  • Builder-grade systems undersized for the home’s glass and sun
  • Poorly routed ducts that leave rooms uneven from day one
  • Low-efficiency equipment that raises bills for the life of the home
  • No load calculation, just a square-footage guess
  • Comfort problems baked in before move-in

Frequently asked questions

Why does new-construction HVAC design matter so much?

Because the decisions made at the blueprint — sizing, duct routing, equipment efficiency — set the home’s comfort and energy bills for decades. Getting it right once is far cheaper than fixing it later.

Do you work with builders?

Yes. We coordinate design, rough-in, and trim with builders and the other trades to keep the project on schedule.

Can you spec high-efficiency or inverter equipment for a new build?

Absolutely — new construction is the ideal time to design around an efficient or inverter system, because the ductwork and layout can be built to suit it.

Do you handle the load calculations and permits?

Yes. We run the computerized load calculations and install to code so the system passes inspection and performs as designed.
