TLS Air Conditioning & Insulation is a family-owned HVAC contractor serving Tampa and Hillsborough County from our office on 8263 Causeway Blvd. Our service area covers Riverview, Brandon, Gibsonton, Seffner, Valrico, Thonotosassa, Apollo Beach, Greater Carrollwood, and Dover, along with Tampa itself.
We’ve handled AC repair, installation, maintenance, and attic insulation as one connected system since 2015, not two separate jobs split between two different crews. That approach holds whether we’re sealing an attic in Valrico or running an AC repair call in Apollo Beach.
Our technicians are background-checked and trained on every major AC brand and insulation type. We hold Florida HVAC license CAC1822364 and electrical license EC13016589, and every job carries our guarantee: if you’re not happy with the work, you don’t pay.
That local reach matters here. Our crews already know which homes near Gibsonton and Dover fight humidity pulling through old ductwork, and which newer builds around Seffner and Thonotosassa still need attic insulation brought up to code.
Brothers Seth and Thomas Hoerig founded TLS Air Conditioning & Insulation in 2015. What began as a small family operation has grown into a seven-office company serving homeowners across Florida’s Gulf Coast.
Seth leads the insulation division. His expertise focuses on attic insulation, heat movement, and air leakage that can increase indoor temperatures and place greater demand on cooling equipment.
Thomas leads the HVAC division. He focuses on air conditioning performance, equipment sizing, system replacement, and practical solutions for Florida’s demanding heat and humidity.
Their different areas of expertise shape the way TLS approaches home comfort. The team considers how insulation, ductwork, airflow, and AC equipment work together instead of treating each problem separately.
This connected approach helps homeowners receive clearer recommendations based on the condition of their complete home comfort system. TLS also uses trained in-house crews, allowing the company to maintain consistent standards across every office and service area.
These verified reviews reflect what matters most to homeowners choosing an HVAC and insulation company. Our dependable installers, clean workmanship, responsive support, honest pricing, and finished results have earned a stellar reputation across Southwest Florida.
“TLS did an amazing job on our AC replacement. I qualified for a Duke Energy rebate program and they filled out all the paperwork — completely seamless. Met the owner Seth and really enjoyed working with his crew. Everything was done beautifully, on time, and they exceeded my expectations from start to finish.”
“TLS replaced our 14-year-old AC that had been struggling for years. The new high-efficiency system cools the whole house evenly, runs much quieter, and our electric bill dropped over $80 the first month. Crew was professional, finished in one day, and the Duke Energy rebate hit our invoice directly.”
“By far the best money spent on my home. House is much more comfortable, AC barely cycles on now compared to our old system. Whisper quiet, energy-efficient, and the install was done in a single day. Crew respected our home — drop cloths everywhere, swept up before they left. Highly recommend TLS.”
“Called TLS when our AC stopped cooling on a Saturday morning. Technician arrived within two hours, diagnosed a failed capacitor, replaced it on the spot, and had the house cooling again before lunch. Honest pricing, no upsell attempts, just straightforward repair. This is the AC company we’ll use from now on.”
“AC stopped working mid-July — TLS dispatched a tech the same day. He diagnosed the issue, replaced a failed contactor and recharged the refrigerant. Had cold air blowing within 90 minutes. Reasonable price, no unnecessary parts pushed. Honest, fast, professional — exactly what you want when your AC dies in Florida summer.”
“I had three AC companies come out for replacement quotes. TLS was the most professional and thorough — Manual J load calc, written guarantee, transparent pricing. Crew installed the new system in one day, no mess, no surprises. Our home cools faster and our July bill dropped over $100. Worth every penny.”
“TLS installed a new high-efficiency AC system for us last month. The whole house is noticeably cooler, runs much quieter than our old unit, and the FPL rebate showed up on our invoice — no paperwork on our end. Quick installation, fair price, and they explained every step. Couldn’t be happier.”
“Had TLS install a new high-efficiency AC in my 2-story home. Free estimate, no pressure, clear written quote. They sized the system correctly using Manual J load calc — my old contractor had installed an oversized unit. New install runs efficiently and keeps every room at temperature. Whisper quiet.”
“TLS came out for spring AC tune-up. Cleaned the coils, checked refrigerant pressure, inspected the condensate drain, tightened electrical connections. They caught a failing capacitor before it killed the compressor — saved me thousands. Unit runs noticeably cooler since the service. Worth every dollar.”
“Second time using TLS — first for AC replacement, now for attic insulation. Both times flawless. This is the only HVAC and insulation company I’ll ever call. Their techs are knowledgeable, respectful, fast, and clean. New AC plus better insulation cut our cooling bill 35%. 5 stars doesn’t feel enough.”
“Old AC finally gave out after 13 years. TLS came out, assessed it honestly, and walked us through repair-vs-replace numbers. New high-efficiency system is incredible — runs cool and quiet, electric bill down significantly. Clean job, permit included, FPL rebate handled. Honest, fair, professional.”
“Incredible experience. TLS was on time, professional, crew was clean and efficient. Electric bill dropped significantly the first month after our AC replacement. Best investment I ever made for my home. Would 100% recommend to anyone in Florida looking for honest AC service.”

As local HVAC contractors, we’re a participating rebate contractor for Duke Energy and FPL on qualifying AC and insulation upgrades. We help Tampa homeowners apply for the right program for their system. The federal 25C tax credit for HVAC upgrades expired December 31, 2025, so ask us which Duke Energy or FPL rebate currently applies to your project.
Insulation protects your AC’s efficiency, and the Comfort Club protects the system itself. For $99 a year, members get two seasonal tune-ups and a discounted rate on repairs, so a weak capacitor or low refrigerant charge gets caught before peak summer, not during it.
We offer special discounts to military veterans, first responders, senior citizens, and teachers across Tampa. It’s our way of saying thank you to the people who serve our community every day.
This discount extends to immediate family members, and proof of affiliation may be required. Ask about your eligibility when you schedule your AC or insulation service.
Tampa’s humid summers, warm nights and frequent thunderstorms create connected cooling and moisture challenges. AC performance, attic insulation and air sealing all matter when assessing an uncomfortable home.
123Tampa’s rainy-season humidity means air conditioners must remove moisture as well as heat. Condensate drains need attention, while gaps around attic hatches and ceiling penetrations can allow humid air movement. Air sealing complements insulation; adding insulation alone does not close those openings.
Strong sunshine heats roof surfaces, transferring heat into attics and toward ceilings and ductwork. Where insulation coverage is thin or uneven, more heat can reach living spaces. TLS assesses accessible insulation and duct connections to identify improvements that support cooling performance.
The City of Tampa documents localized flooding concerns in low-lying areas, including South Tampa. Outdoor AC placement should account for drainage and potential water exposure. Separately, roof leaks can wet attic insulation. Addressing the moisture source before replacing affected material helps avoid covering an unresolved problem.
TLS makes AC repairs, installs, and insulation upgrades easier to afford through our Wisetack financing partnership. Eligibility checks take minutes and never touch your credit score. Request your estimate first, then choose a monthly plan that fits.

Tampa’s housing stock spans nearly a century, from 1920s bungalows near Henry B. Plant Museum to mid-century block homes built decades before current energy codes. Original ductwork and attics designed for a different era mean these homes often cool unevenly, with upstairs rooms running warmer than the rest of the house no matter how hard the system runs.
We size and install AC systems to match what these older homes actually need, not a generic load calculation. Leaky, undersized ductwork is the most common culprit we find on service calls across Tampa, and sealing it properly restores airflow far more effectively than replacing the unit alone. Crews working near Raymond James Stadium and along routes like N Nebraska Ave see this pattern often enough to diagnose it on the first visit.
Whether it’s a repair call from a century-old bungalow or a full system replacement in a newer build, we show up ready to work on the home you actually have, not a textbook version of it.
Much of Tampa’s housing, from older condo buildings to working-class cottages and established single-family neighborhoods, was built before Florida’s current insulation code existed. Florida Building Code Climate Zone 2 requires R-38 in the attic, and FSEC-monitored attics that fall short of it see peak temperatures of 127 to 134°F, heat that pushes straight down into the living space and keeps the AC running longer than it should.
We’ve pulled and replaced failing attic insulation on jobs near Woodlawn Cemetery and Jefferson High School, and sealed ductwork on streets like E Sligh Ave and N 22nd St, where original construction left gaps that no amount of extra cooling can fully offset. Bringing these attics up to code cuts the heat load before it ever reaches the thermostat, which is a cheaper and more permanent fix than sizing up the AC system to compensate.
From a single room in an older cottage to a full attic job in a newer build, we treat insulation as the first line of defense against Tampa’s heat, not an afterthought to the AC system.
TLS Air Conditioning & Insulation provides 24 Hour AC repair, AC installation, and insulation services to homeowners across Tampa, Florida, from century-old neighborhoods to new construction. Search “near me” and you’ll find our crews already working close to you.

Your AC and your attic insulation work as one system, and in Tampa, Florida that system gets tested every single day. Whether it’s a repair call, a new install, or an attic that’s long overdue for an upgrade, our crews are already working near you and ready to schedule your visit today.
Yes. We handle AC repair, AC installation, AC maintenance, and insulation work, including attic insulation and duct sealing, for homeowners across Tampa. Because heat gain through an under-insulated attic directly affects AC performance, we often diagnose both systems together rather than treating them as separate problems.
Response time depends on current call volume and where you are within our Tampa Bay service area. Our dispatch team gives you a specific time window when you call, and TLS Comfort Club members receive priority scheduling ahead of standard service calls.
Yes. We’re a participating rebate contractor for Duke Energy and FPL on qualifying AC and insulation upgrades. Ask us which current program applies to your project when you schedule service.
No. We don’t install spray foam insulation. We work with attic insulation, blown-in insulation, batt insulation, and duct sealing.
Florida Building Code Climate Zone 2, which covers Tampa, requires a minimum of R-38 in the attic. Homes that fall short of that level let attic heat push into living spaces, and FSEC monitoring has recorded attic temperatures of 127 to 134°F in attics without adequate insulation.
Our Super Tune-Up is $49 and includes a 13-point inspection. TLS Comfort Club members pay $99 a year for membership, and tune-up frequency and terms for members can vary, so ask us for current membership details before enrolling.
The $125 diagnostic fee applies to standard service calls and is credited toward the repair if you move forward with the work. Any fee adjustments for TLS Comfort Club members depend on current plan terms, so confirm the details with us when you enroll.
Comfort Club membership costs $99 a year and includes priority service scheduling along with other member benefits. Specific perks, discounts, and response-time commitments can vary by current plan terms and equipment condition, so ask your TLS representative for full details before you enroll.
No. The federal 25C tax credit for qualifying HVAC upgrades expired December 31, 2025. If you’re planning an AC replacement in Tampa, check current Duke Energy or FPL rebate programs instead, since those remain active.
