One tip I learned from our furnace repair person after we built a home here in Ohio. Be sure to have the furnace thoroughly cleaned when you move in. I'll guess you need to have the add A/C cleaned in Florida.
If they are are running before there is a heavy-duty cleanup, all that drywall dust lodges in the mechanical parts and ruins everything. The dust is tacky like clay. When the repair person opened my furnace, it was pure white everywhere. Nuff' said.
I told all our neighbors, who had also built new, and got some pretty shocked phone calls later in the day. BTW, nice way to make some new friends. Nice of the repairman to point this out. He could have made a lot of money.
