Judale Wynkoop moved to Florida about 18 years ago. Once he settled in, he went back to school as an older student and trained in HVAC at Southern Technical College.
After working for ten years in the field and for two prominent HVAC companies, he climbed from installer to service technician, then to commercial technician. Each step showed him how systems fail and what an installation needs to pass county or city inspection.
That experience paid off in February 2022, when his Florida Certified Air Conditioning Contractor license, CAC1821345, came through. He opened Jormechanical Air the same month. Today he leads air conditioner installs and heat pump replacements across Orange, Seminole, Volusia and Osceola counties.
His customers can see that pride in the results. Jormechanical Air holds a 5.0 rating on Google. He is also EPA 608 certified to handle refrigerant and BBB A+ accredited with zero complaints.
That record matters because the name on it is the same one that answers for your install. Judale stays accountable for every step, from the first look at your home to the final walkthrough. That same care shapes the articles below.
I take pride in what I do... I like the whole process when it goes smoothly.

Judale Wynkoop owner of JorMechanical just finished installing my new A/C and Airhandler and a new Ecobee Premium Stat. Courteous, efficient, and very knowledgeable regarding heating and cooling systems. And, importantly, trust worthy. All old equipment was promptly removed when the install was completed. A pleasure to have JorMechanical as a reliable contractor.
