HEATING
Tidewater Heating & Air has been installing furnaces for over 39 years. We continue to use old fashion craftsmanship to install today's high efficiency equipment. Tidewater provides you with all available options in heating equipment today.

Heating equipment primarily uses three different fuel sources: gas, electricity, and/or oil. You may have one or all of these available to you.

Gas Options
80+ AFUE Forced Air Gas Furnaces with multi speed and variable speed blowers
90+ AFUE Forced Air Gas Furnaces with multi speed and variable speed blowers

Multi Speed Blowers
These blowers are installed in furnaces and typically have 4 settings available: low, medium low, medium high, and high speed. The speed is set by the servicing technician to accommodate your needs. Most often the fan is set at a lower speed for heating and a higher speed for cooling.

Variable-Speed-Blower-Motors
These motors are "smart" motors and are available in selected furnaces and air handlers. The variable speed blower works in conjunction with other controls to adjust the required blower speed to your home's heating and cooling requirements. On mild days, the blower will operate at lower speeds than on hotter and colder days. The lower blower speed results in quieter operation and better filtration of the air.

AFUE - an acronym for ANNUAL FUEL UTILIZATION ENERGY, a way to compare the efficiency of furnaces. The higher the AFUE, the higher the efficiency and the lower the fuel usage, resulting in lower operating costs.

Gas Boilers - available in both steam and hot water models. Boilers are often found in historic homes, using radiators to distribute heat. Boilers are also connected to in-floor piping systems to warm the whole structure.

Oil Boilers - available in steam and hot water

Electric Option
Heat Pumps - are efficient systems to both heat and cool your home or office. By utilizing the refrigeration cycle, heat pumps are more efficient than electric furnaces. Heat pumps may also be added to a gas or oil furnace.

Oil Options
Oil Furnaces - available in upflow, downflow, and horizontal applications
