Air Conditioning Installation & Replacement in Centreville

At HVAC & Plumbing Unlimited, we offer a full array of air conditioning installation services, including heat pump and central AC unit installation for homes and businesses in Centreville, VA and the surrounding areas. Old systems usually give warning that they are in need of repair or replacement. Some signs you need a new air conditioner include:

• Your air conditioner is coming to the end of its life. There are some things you can do to extend the life of your AC unit, but if your unit is more than 15 years old you should have it inspected and possibly replaced.
• Your energy bills keep rising. New air conditioners are far more efficient than older models and can help you save money on your energy bills.
• You need repairs more than once a year. Even the most reliable air conditioning unit will need repairs every once in a while, but if you’ve got us on speed dial, it’s time to bite the bullet and get a new one.
• Your air quality is decreasing. Are you sneezing more? There may be mildew, mold, or other allergens stuck to your AC unit. If changing the filters doesn’t help, you need a new one.
• Your family is expanding. One of the questions we will ask you is how many people live in your home. The more people, the harder an air conditioning unit has to work to keep everybody comfortable.

We will be happy to schedule an in-home consultation to discuss your options for AC installation and other air conditioning services. For instance, your existing duct system may be insufficient to handle the additional airflow that new blowers can deliver, or you may need an upgraded electrical supply. There are a variety of aspects that need to be examined when undergoing an installation or replacement.

Cutting-Edge Technology

Modern HVAC systems offer advanced options that increase efficiency and provide better comfort control. These types of systems are light years beyond older equipment. Dual-stage capacities and variable speed fans allow for far more flexibility in operation and allow you to customize your environment like never before. It is possible to program systems remotely from your laptop or smart phone, and zoning options allow you to independently control room temperatures. These are amazing upgrades, but they require installers trained in the latest developments. We are capable of installing or repairing the most technologically advanced equipment available today, anywhere in the Centreville area.

Split HVAC System Installation & Repair

In Centreville homes, you will typically see what is known as split-system HVAC equipment. This means that part of the HVAC system is located indoors, and part of it is located outdoors. The indoor components will consist of an evaporator coil, which is either connected to the furnace or located inside the air handler of your heat pump.

The outdoor component of a heating and air conditioning system is called a condensing unit and is made up of the condensing coil and the compressor. The compressor is the “heart” of the system because it pumps the coolant and lubricating fluid throughout the machinery. It is the hardest-working and most critical part of the system. In commercial applications in Centreville, we normally install package HVAC systems that contain all components in one outside unit.

Proper HVAC Ventilation in Centreville, VA

What do you know about your ventilation system? Here are a few facts:

• Ventilation refers to the duct system that circulates the air in your home or business.
• Air coming into the indoor system is called return air; air going out of the indoor component to the rest of your house is called supply air. In some cases there is very little on the return side, and it may only consist of an empty space below the HVAC closet or a plenum connected to a hole in the roof.
• Modern Centreville building codes sometimes require returns in every room, so this can become more complex for newer buildings.
• The ventilation aspect of HVAC is extremely important in terms of comfort, energy efficiency, equipment operation and indoor air quality.
• There can be hundreds of feet of duct in an average-sized Centreville house, and it frequently is placed in areas such as the attic or basement where the air is not clean. If your ductwork is not perfectly sealed, you will not only lose heating and air conditioned air to outside areas but also bring dusty or dirty air into the conditioned air in your house. This wastes a lot of energy as well as creating a potentially unhealthy indoor environment.

If you are worried about your air, you can always install an air cleaner or other indoor air quality products.
