Southwest Florida's Trusted AC & Insulation Contractor
We're a trusted air conditioning and insulation contractor serving Southwest Florida homeowners — we cool your home and seal it, so you stop paying to cool the outdoors. In a hot, humid region where your AC runs nearly 10 months a year, under-insulated homes trap heat, strain the system, and push energy bills higher.
From AC repair, installation, and replacement to home and attic insulation, we handle the whole comfort system with a proven, review-backed process — and we file your Duke & FPL rebate paperwork for you.
TLS Air Conditioning & Insulation is a licensed air conditioning and insulation contractor that has served 54,000+ homes across Southwest Florida's 7 counties for over 11 years — handling AC repair, installation, replacement, and home & attic insulation, plus Duke & FPL rebate paperwork.

In Southwest Florida, the fastest way to lower a cooling bill is to fix both sides at once: a properly working air conditioner and a tightly sealed, well-insulated home. TLS is one of the few Southwest Florida contractors that does both.
Cooling alone can't lower your bill if your home leaks the cold air you pay for. Insulation alone can't rescue an aging AC.
Because a sealed, insulated home holds the cold, your AC cycles less, costs drop, and hot and cold spots disappear.
Does adding insulation really lower AC bills in Florida?
Yes. A sealed, well-insulated home keeps conditioned air inside, so your AC runs fewer cycles. The EPA estimates about 15% savings on heating and cooling when air sealing and insulation are done together.
Air conditioning service is everything that keeps a cooling system running through Florida's long summers: repair when it fails, maintenance so it does not, and replacement when it is time. TLS Air Conditioning & Insulation is the air conditioning contractor in Southwest Florida homeowners call for all of it under one team, from a quick repair to a full replacement. Our 30+ trained technicians service every major brand, so you are never locked into one manufacturer, and most repairs are done the same week.
When your AC won't cool or keeps tripping in the heat, our AC repair finds the fault fast and gets cold air back the same week, on every major brand.

TLS Air Conditioning & Insulation is the insulation contractor homeowners call to seal that gap, installing attic, blown-in, and batt insulation, sealing leaky ducts, and removing old or damaged material so your home finally holds its cool. Every job starts with a free attic assessment that shows exactly where your home is losing energy.
When homeowners look for companies that insulate homes, we come up as premium blown-in insulation installers known for fuller coverage, steadier comfort, and less exposed attic flooring.

Batt insulation still makes sense in framed walls, floors, and open cavities, which is why we strategically use it where precise fit and steady thermal control matter most.

During a thorough insulation inspection, our experts find leaking ducts that waste cooled air, and sealing them improves HVAC efficiency, room comfort, and overall system performance.

Across Southwest Florida, homes face three daily pressure points: long cooling seasons, heavy outdoor humidity, and attic heat that keeps building through the day.

That is why homeowners across Southwest Florida turn to our air conditioning and insulation company for professional AC and insulation services, delivered by technicians and installers who understand how heat gain, weak coverage, settled insulation, and an overworked cooling system affect homes in this region.
We are one of the best air conditioning and insulation companies in the area, with a simple, well-coordinated process. We handle inspections, estimates, AC and insulation upgrades, and rebate paperwork with the local support people expect from reliable AC and insulation experts near them.

Plenty of companies will sell you an AC or blow insulation into your attic and move on. TLS Air Conditioning & Insulation takes a more complete approach. We handle both sides of your home comfort, the cooling system and the insulation around it, so the work actually fits together in a Southwest Florida home.
Our goal is not to pressure you into a sale you do not need. It is to give you a clear picture of your home, explain what we find in plain language, and help you make the right decision.
Your home deserves more than a quick fix and a generic checklist.
Most companies are locked into a manufacturer partnership, so their "recommendation" follows the commission. We service every major AC brand sold in Florida, central systems, mini-splits, and heat pumps, with no lock-in, so our advice is about what is best for your equipment.
Every job is performed under Florida DBPR License #CAC1822364, with full liability insurance and workers' compensation. We are also EPA Lead-Safe Certified and handle all refrigerant work safely and legally.
When we send someone to your home, you know exactly who you are dealing with. Every technician is a TLS employee, never a subcontractor, background-checked and drug-tested. The person working in your home is accountable to us, not a third party.
Our technicians complete 150 hours of professional training a year, well beyond the industry norm. That is how they stay current on today's equipment, the new R-454B and R-32 refrigerants, and modern insulation methods, not just the systems that were standard a decade ago.
You approve a written, flat-rate price before any work begins, and our No Change Order Guarantee means it never changes. No hourly meter, no surprise add-ons. If we find a problem, we quote it in writing and let you decide.
Our promise since day one. If you are not completely happy with the AC or insulation work we have done, we make it right at no cost to you. Your comfort and satisfaction come before the invoice, on every single visit.
We are not just an AC company. We are TLS Air Conditioning & Insulation. On a service visit we can spot the attic insulation and duct problems quietly driving up your energy bills, something a cooling-only contractor never even looks at.
We have earned a BBB Accredited A+ rating and thousands of verified customer reviews across Southwest Florida. It is real local experience built one honest job at a time, not a national chain reading from a script.
Veterans, active military, police, and firefighters receive exclusive savings and 48-hour priority service. We have even gifted complete HVAC systems to deserving veteran families across our Southwest Florida community.
A proper comfort upgrade should leave you with more than a receipt. It should give you a home that holds its cool, a system that runs efficiently, and the confidence that the work was done by a team that takes your comfort seriously.

Quick answers about air conditioning, insulation, rebates, and service across Southwest Florida.
Yes. HVAC and insulation work together as one comfort system. Insulation holds conditioned air inside while your AC or mini split cools it. When attic insulation is thin, your HVAC runs longer and bills climb. TLS services both under one roof.
Yes. An uninsulated Florida attic reaches 130 to 150°F and forces your AC to run nonstop. Proper attic insulation cuts cooling costs by 20 to 30%, since cooling is the largest share of a Florida home's energy use.
Ideally yes, or do both together. Upgrading insulation first gives an accurate load calculation, so you get a correctly sized unit instead of an oversized one. TLS assesses your R-value and cooling load in the same visit.
Florida Building Code requires attic insulation between R-38 and R-49. Most homes built before 2010 sit near R-19 to R-22, far below code, which is why older Southwest Florida homes often have overworked AC systems.
Most Southwest Florida homeowners pay between $1,500 and $4,500 to insulate or re-insulate an attic, depending on size, R-value, and whether old insulation needs removal. Blown-in fiberglass is the most cost-effective choice for Florida's heat.
Most homes recover the cost of attic insulation within 12 to 18 months through lower energy bills. Because insulation reduces how hard your AC works year-round, the monthly savings continue long after the system pays for itself.
A ductless mini split is an HVAC system that cools a room or zone directly without ductwork: a small outdoor unit paired with indoor units. It is ideal for Florida garages, additions, and older homes, and avoids the 25 to 40% energy loss from leaky ducts.
A ductless mini split needs servicing twice a year. Unlike a system that runs one season, a mini split works year-round, so dust and condensate build up continuously. Spring and fall tune-ups keep it efficient and the warranty valid.
Yes, but coverage depends on licensed installation. Ductless manufacturers require a licensed contractor, otherwise the warranty is void. As a Florida-licensed contractor (CAC1822364), TLS keeps your equipment fully covered.
The biggest gains come from three areas: upgrading attic insulation, sealing leaky ducts, and maintaining an efficient AC. Since air conditioning drives about 27% of a Florida home's energy use, improving the thermal envelope and HVAC together delivers the most comfort and savings.
Yes. In Florida, where your system runs most of the year, maintenance lowers energy use by 10 to 30%. The TLS Comfort Club includes AC tune-ups, priority service, a free diagnostic, 15% repair discounts, and fees credited toward new equipment or insulation.
Replace once the unit is past 10 to 12 years and a single repair nears $1,200 to $1,600. Repeated repairs plus lost efficiency cost more than a new system. TLS runs a True Cost of Ownership analysis so the decision is based on your real numbers.
Yes. As an authorized Duke Energy and FPL contractor, TLS gives homeowners rebates up to $800 for attic insulation and $220 for ceiling insulation, and handles all the paperwork for you.
Yes. Through the TLS Veteran Giveback Program, veterans, active military, police, and firefighters receive a free Comfort Club membership, 15% off parts, no diagnostic fee, and 48-hour priority service.
TLS backs every install with a Totally Happy Guarantee (one-year money-back), a No Lemon Guarantee, a Lowest Price Guarantee, and a No Change Order Guarantee, with no hidden fees. Licensed, insured, and no subcontractors.
TLS serves Punta Gorda, Port Charlotte, Sarasota, Venice, North Port, Tampa, St. Petersburg, and 100+ communities across Southwest and Central Florida.
