HVAC Maintenance
Our comprehensive HVAC maintenance ensures optimal system performance through filter replacements, coil cleaning, refrigerant checks, and electrical inspections. Regular tune-ups extend equipment lifespan, reduce energy costs by up to 30%, and prevent unexpected breakdowns. Our technicians follow manufacturer guidelines to maintain warranty compliance while improving indoor air quality and system efficiency for both residential and commercial clients.
Air Conditioning Repair
We diagnose and fix all AC issues including refrigerant leaks, compressor failures, and thermostat malfunctions. Our emergency repair team responds 24/7 to restore cooling during peak summer months. Using advanced diagnostic tools, we identify root causes and provide lasting solutions while offering replacement options for aging systems that no longer meet efficiency standards or cooling requirements.
Gas Line Repair
Our licensed technicians handle gas line installations, leak detection, and repair services with strict safety protocols. We use specialized equipment to locate leaks, perform pressure tests, and replace damaged piping. Emergency gas line services address immediate safety concerns while scheduled maintenance prevents hazardous situations through annual inspections and corrosion protection measures for residential and commercial properties.

Our technicians assess home insulation, square footage, and climate needs to recommend appropriate SEER-rated systems. Proper installation includes refrigerant charging, electrical connections, and thermostat integration to maximize energy savings while ensuring quiet operation and consistent temperature control throughout the year.

We service and replace both tank and tankless water heaters, addressing issues like insufficient hot water, unusual noises, and leaks.

Tidewater Heating & Air replaced our heat pump recently and performed overall HVAC maintenance at the same time. They also installed UV light tubes in two air air handlers. Their work was excellent, and they were able to accommodate a very tight schedule. As a follow-up, Chris scheduled a visit to review all of the work that was performed with us, answered all our questions, and provided guidance for future maintenance of our systems. He is a real pro, and takes great care in his work and in responding to questions. We are very glad we chose Tidewater Heating & Air.

Chris did an excellent job in both his write up and verbal explanation of our AC problem. He was patient and professional in answering my questions and fully explained how the problem would be permanently fixed awaiting final approval from the Home Warranty. Meanwhile we have cool air and expect this temporarily fix will hold until he returns.

Chris and his team did an excellent job installing new HVAC unit and repairing existing ones. Everything was well explained, the new thermostat was set up with Chris' assistance, and service was prompt when it was discovered there was a malfunction with the thermostat installed, new one provided and now keeping my house quite comfortable during this colder stretch of weather. Well done, gentlemen!
