Air handlers typically connect to duct work to deliver comfortable conditioned air. They circulate the cooled air produced by the heating and cooling equipment throughout the home. There are two major types of heating and cooling systems to choose from: central and ductless. Central consists of an indoor and outdoor unit and duct work.
Seal air leaks. Seal all holes from pipes and wires that enter/exit the living space. This includes entrances, pull-downs and attic stair openings, light fixtures, pipes and wires. Attic entryways should be weather stripped and insulated. Seal duct work. Make sure that all ductwork is sealed at joints and intersections with duct sealer or silicone caulk.

I purchased a commercial freezer for my family from an online restaurant supplier. (yes I have a big family - 6 boys) After 5 months the freezer began overheating. I called multiple appliance repair businesses and no one was willing to even come and look at it. Tidewater Mechanical came and diagnosed the problem and fixed it in just an hour. Due to the fact that we keep it in the garage a mouse had crawled into it and died. It was obstructing the cooling fan. They only charged me the service call fee. They were professional and a delight to do business with. I will definitely recommend them!

They were supposed to fix my A/C system. Came out and said they found and fix a leak without leak testing my system. Few days later my house began overheating again, I found my refrigerant lines frozen which meant my system was low on refrigerant. Hence, they NEVER actually fixed the leak. They came back again filled my unit with refrigerant and said they will be back to nitrogen check it. I called and they claimed they never said that and as a matter of fact they already fixed my unit. I HAVE THE WORKER ON CAMERA STARTING THAT HE WOULD BE BACK TO TEST! WHY IS MY HOUSE 80 degrees!! Be very careful

I agree with the other reviews here. Great communication, knowledgeable, professional and courteous.
Signed up for the yearly maintenance plan for my HVAC system. It provides many features and allows for an opportunity for a professional to inspect the system to make sure it’s running at its peak.
Worth every penny!
I would recommend to friend based off of this experience.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Value
Tidewater Mechanical did a great job installing our new HVAC system. They also repaired and replaced some of our ductwork. It was a huge job and they got it done how we wanted it done for the right price. There were a few snags but Joe personally made sure we were happy with the work.

Joe called to set up a full install in a short time frame, and was very professional, polite, and courteous. He walked me through all that will take place and what issues may arise. He even offered to have a handyman he trusts accompany him to the first day to give an estimate on other needed repairs to our home. I have been very impressed, and will update after the install.

Very slow company that gives the “run around”. When first called they said they’d be there within 4-24 hours and this was on Saturday but didn’t come till Monday because they deemed it not an emergency because outdoor temperatures were not freezing. But my house was 50 degrees with a 1 year old. They came Monday said it needed a part or new system left never heard anything. I called and asked for update and unable to provide one. I called again Tuesday they said they are ordering the part and will take 5-7 business days meanwhile overnight temps are dropping in 20-30 degrees. They called
