A Legacy of Comfort in Central Florida

Tradition Central Air, Inc. has been a cornerstone of comfort in Central Florida for nearly four decades. Founded in 1985 by John and Mary Thompson, this family-owned business has grown from a small operation in Winter Haven to a respected HVAC company serving multiple communities across Polk County.

Our Humble Beginnings

The Thompsons started their company with a simple mission: to provide reliable air conditioning services to their neighbors in Winter Haven. As Florida’s heat became increasingly challenging, the demand for their expertise grew rapidly. Soon, Tradition Central Air expanded its reach to nearby communities, including:

• Auburndale
• Cypress Gardens
• Inwood
• Lakeland
• Wahneta

Community Commitment

As Tradition Central Air grew, so did its commitment to the community. The company has been an active participant in local events, sponsors youth sports teams, and provides free HVAC services to low-income seniors during extreme heat waves.

Embracing Technology and Innovation

While rooted in tradition, the company has always been forward-thinking. Tradition Central Air was among the first in the region to offer smart thermostat installations and energy audits. This blend of old-fashioned service and cutting-edge technology has helped the company maintain its position as a leader in the local HVAC industry.

Looking to the Future

Today, Tradition Central Air, Inc. is led by the second generation of the Thompson family, with John and Mary’s children at the helm. The company continues to grow, adapting to new challenges such as the increasing demand for energy-efficient and environmentally friendly cooling solutions.
