With so many people working from home due to COVID-19, and the hot summer months quickly approaching, the need for a dependable and efficient air conditioning system has never been more important.
“We strongly recommend that you call now for your spring service and maintenance, and to get information and quotes if you’re considering replacing an older system,” said Gary Beurmann, air conditioning manager at Cornerstone Pros in Land O’ Lakes. “If you call now, we can schedule an appointment and get you prepared for the hottest months of the year.”
The trade services provided by Cornerstone Pros — air conditioning, plumbing and electrical — are all essential services that remain open during the Stay At Home order from Gov. Ron DeSantis.
“Our crews are working, and we’ve adopted COVID-19 safety protocols to protect customers and employees,” said Dana Spears, president of Cornerstone Pros. “Because our employees wear extra safety gear, and most of our work is performed outside or in remote areas of a home, we greatly limit exposure for everyone.”
With afternoon temperatures already in the 90s, A/C services are very much in demand right now.
“Many families are upgrading their A/C system, either because their existing unit is unreliable and is costing too much to maintain, or their unit is inefficient and uses an increasing amount of energy that results in hundreds of dollars in utility bills. Plus, we have great financing terms and rebates to offer from Daikin and utility companies,” said Spears.
Most air conditioning systems need to be replaced at 10 to 12 years, while builder grade systems often need replacement after five years, when their warranty expires.
“Your air conditioning system is an appliance, just like your refrigerator, and does not last forever,” said Beurmann. “But, before we recommend that an A/C system be replaced, my team of over 20 technicians and installers give customers several options to consider, with realistic costs and expectations.”
Beurmann explains that sometimes replacement is the best solution if an A/C is out of warranty, and the cost to repair it is better spent on a new system. “In addition, an energy-efficient new unit typically saves a family hundreds of dollars a year in lower utility costs.”
Beurmann adds that his team is all paid hourly, so customers never have a 100% commission tech pressuring for sales of new or upgraded A/C systems. “Our only motive is to do what is best for our customers,” he says.
Cornerstone is an Elite Daikin Fit dealer that offers local homeowners one of the best A/C systems ever made. Available only since February, the Daikin Fit features exceptionally cool comfort, a small footprint and high energy efficiency ratings.
“The new Daikin Fit system has so many more benefits than other systems in the market — there is nothing out there that compares,” said Beurmann. “Several of our customers were a Daikin Fit homeowner test site for the past two years, and they have been very pleased with the product and new technology the system offers. Cornerstone has never worked with a system that has so much to offer, and at a price point most people can afford.”

Daikin Fit Unique Advantages
Gary Beurmann, A/C service manager at Cornerstone Pros, explains the many advantages of a Daikin Fit system.
Home Feels Cooler
Your home will feel cooler and more comfortable because the system is highly effective at maintaining desired humidity levels because of its invertor/smart system technology.
Half The Size
The outdoor unit is half the size of a traditional condenser, which makes it perfect for pool and patios areas, allowing more space for outdoor living. It is also great for homes with narrow lot lines.
Exceptionally Quiet
It is so quiet that it can be installed outside a bedroom window and not be heard inside. This makes it great for sleeping for both kids and adults, because you don’t hear a compressor kicking on and off during the night. “It is so quiet, you can be standing right next to it and wonder if the unit is even running — it’s that quiet,” said Beurmann.
Energy Efficient
The Daikin Fit has an energy efficiency rating of 16 SEER and above, which means it consumes less energy to cool your home. SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio — the higher the SEER rating, the more efficient the cooling equipment is.
Affordability
Until now, A/C systems with inverter technology where very costly. Pricing on the Daikin Fit allows homeowners to get the best invertor technology on the market at a price comparable to lower competitor two-stage systems. Its smart system provides so much more technology than other products offer at its price points.
Tech Conveniences
The Daikin Fit has all the bells and whistles – including Wi-Fi connectivity and thermostat controls that are accessible from your phone, pad and laptop. Daikin’s super-intelligent, user-friendly system controllers allow you to orchestrate and monitor mode, temperature, time, airflow volume and more across your entire system, at the touch of button.
12-Year Factory Warranty
The Daikin Fit is covered by one of the best warranties in the industry, with a 12-year parts and labor warranty included in the price of the unit.
