If your system is doing any of the following, it is worth a diagnostic before the fault gets more expensive.
Thermostat reading several degrees off from reality

Heating and air conditioning service built around Free Union
Homeowners across Free Union call us when the system simply will not keep up. Humid tidewater summers and colder mountain winters mean equipment needs vary sharply across the state. That is why we staff a live dispatch line around the clock instead of routing you to a queue.
Homes in Albemarle County tend to be a mix of older builds with original ductwork and newer infill construction, which means airflow problems show up very differently from one street to the next.
Peak cooling demand here runs May through September. Booking a tune-up in early spring means you are not competing with the whole neighbourhood for a tech in July.

Free Union22940 HVAC questions, answered
Do you service commercial and light commercial properties?
Yes. Around Free Union we handle rooftop packaged units, split systems, VRF/VRV installations and building automation faults for offices, retail, restaurants and multi-tenant buildings, including after-hours scheduling so you are not disrupting trade.
Do you offer maintenance plans?
We do. A two-visit plan in Virginia covers a spring cooling inspection and an autumn heating inspection, priority scheduling during peak weeks, discounted repairs and no diagnostic fee. Members rarely end up on the emergency list.
How much does an HVAC service call cost in 22940?
A diagnostic visit in Free Union typically runs $75 to $150, and that fee is usually applied toward the repair if you approve the work. Repair prices are quoted as a flat rate before we start, so the number you approve is the number you pay regardless of how long the job takes.
What does a new system cost in Free Union?
A complete residential replacement in the 22940 area generally lands between $6,000 and $13,000 installed, depending on capacity, efficiency rating and how much ductwork has to be modified. We always perform a Manual J load calculation first, because an oversized unit costs more to buy and runs worse than a correctly sized one.
Do you handle ductless mini-split systems?
Yes. Ductless installations have grown quickly in Virginia, particularly in older homes without existing ductwork. We service indoor heads, clean filters and drain lines, check line-set insulation and diagnose communication faults between heads and the outdoor unit.
Can you give me a price over the phone?
We can give you realistic ranges — and this page lists the ones homeowners in Free Union see most often — but a firm price needs eyes on the equipment. Any company that quotes a final number without seeing the unit is usually quoting low to get through the door.
