Seth & Thomas Hoerig
Founders, TLS Air Conditioning & Insulation

Meet Seth and Thomas Hoerig, TLS Founders Serving St. Petersburg

Brothers Seth and Thomas Hoerig founded TLS Air Conditioning & Insulation in 2015. Their separate areas of expertise give St. Petersburg homeowners one company for two closely connected parts of home comfort.

Seth leads TLS insulation services. He focuses on attic insulation, air leakage, and heat transfer that can increase indoor temperatures and make cooling systems work longer.

Thomas leads the HVAC division. His work covers AC performance, equipment sizing, system replacement, and cooling solutions suited to St. Petersburg’s extended periods of heat and humidity.

Together, they built TLS around a whole-home approach. A cooling problem may involve the equipment, but ductwork, airflow, attic temperatures, and insulation can also affect system performance.

The St. Petersburg office is part of TLS’s seven-office network across Florida’s Gulf Coast. The company operates under Florida HVAC Contractor License #CAC1822364, with trained in-house teams completing HVAC and insulation projects without outsourcing installations to subcontractors.

COASTAL CLIMATE

How St. Petersburg’s Climate Affects AC and Insulation

St. Petersburg homes face coastal exposure, humid weather and heat from sun-exposed roofs. These conditions affect outdoor cooling equipment and the insulation separating attics from living spaces.

1

Salt Exposure Can Corrode Outdoor Equipment

Salt-laden air can accelerate corrosion on outdoor AC components, particularly on exposed waterfront properties. Risk varies with equipment placement, wind exposure and protective features. Inspection and manufacturer-recommended care help guide maintenance and replacement decisions.

2

Humidity Makes Moisture Removal Important

Air conditioning must remove moisture as well as lower indoor temperatures. Poor airflow, drainage problems and air leakage can complicate comfort. Assessing cooling performance alongside accessible attic gaps helps identify whether equipment service, air sealing or both need attention.

3

Attic Heat Adds to Cooling Demand

Sunshine heats roof surfaces, transferring heat toward attic insulation and ductwork. Thin or uneven ceiling insulation offers less resistance to that heat flow. Suitable insulation improvements help reduce heat entering rooms, while duct sealing addresses escaping conditioned air.

4

Insulation and Air Sealing Serve Different Purposes

Insulation slows heat transfer; air sealing limits unwanted air movement through gaps. Both should suit the home’s construction while preserving required ventilation and equipment clearances.

BEFORE WORK STARTS

Planning AC and Insulation Work for St. Petersburg Homes

St. Petersburg properties need different installation plans, from existing houses to downtown condominiums. Access, construction and building rules help determine which AC and insulation options are practical.

1

Existing Homes Need an Assessment First

Wall construction, attic clearance and existing duct routes affect the proposed work. We assess accessible areas before recommending insulation or cooling upgrades. Sound insulation may remain, while moisture damage or restricted access can change the scope.

2

Condominiums May Require Association Approval

Condo owners should confirm association rules before changing outdoor equipment or shared building areas. Approval may be needed for condenser placement, wall openings and refrigerant line routing. Available insulation work also depends on ownership boundaries and access.

3

Equipment Placement Must Allow Servicing

Outdoor units need suitable support, airflow clearance and room for maintenance. Refrigerant lines, electrical connections and condensate drainage also influence installation locations. Insulation work should preserve required equipment clearances and ventilation paths.

4

Confirm the Scope Before Scheduling

Your written proposal should identify preparation, materials, equipment and any necessary permits or approvals. Clarifying these requirements early helps avoid scheduling work before the property is ready.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Yes. TLS runs 24/7 emergency AC service across St. Petersburg and the surrounding Pinellas County area, including after-hours and weekend calls. A failed air conditioner in Florida heat doesn’t wait for business hours, so neither do we. Call us and we’ll get a technician moving the same day in most cases.

We serve St. Petersburg and the surrounding Pinellas County neighborhoods, including Greater Pinellas Point, Childs Park, Downtown, Shore Acres, Riviera Bay, Harbor Isle, Gandy, Fossil Park, Disston Heights, Bartlett Park, Coquina Key, Bayview, and Highland Oaks. If you’re unsure whether your street falls inside our coverage, call and we’ll confirm before scheduling.

Yes. As a licensed HVAC contractor working in St. Petersburg, we know air conditioning installations here typically require a permit through the City of St. Petersburg’s building department, and we file that paperwork as part of the job rather than leaving it to the homeowner. This keeps the install compliant and avoids delays at resale inspection.

Salt in the air corrodes outdoor condenser coils and electrical contacts faster than it would further inland, which shortens equipment life if it’s not caught early. We check for salt-related corrosion on every AC repair and maintenance visit in bayside parts of St. Petersburg, not only after a system fails.

Yes. We’re a participating rebate contractor for both Duke Energy and FPL on qualifying air conditioning and insulation upgrades. Which rebate applies depends on your utility provider and the equipment installed, so we confirm eligibility before work starts. The federal 25C tax credit for HVAC upgrades expired December 31, 2025, and no longer applies.

For $99 a year, members get two scheduled visits, priority scheduling ahead of non-members, a member repair discount, a full AC tune-up and inspection, an attic insulation check, and no overtime charges on service calls. It’s built to catch small problems, like early coil corrosion, before they turn into a full system failure.

Yes. We offer a discount to military veterans, first responders, senior citizens, and teachers, and it extends to their immediate family members. We may ask for proof of affiliation. Mention your eligibility when you schedule AC repair, installation, or insulation service and we’ll apply it.

Florida Building Code Climate Zone 2, which covers St. Petersburg, calls for R-38 insulation in the attic. Many older homes in this area fall well short of that, letting heat and humidity push into the living space and forcing the AC to run longer than it should. We check attic insulation levels on every service call.

Yes. TLS holds Florida HVAC license CAC1822364 and electrical license EC13016589, and every technician is background-checked before being sent to your home. We’ve worked in St. Petersburg since 2015, and every repair, installation, or insulation job is backed by our satisfaction guarantee.
