"I had them replace my entire HVAC system (furnance + AC). They did a great job through the whole process. Out of four quotes I received, they were the only ones that took the time to do a full heating and cooling load calculation for my house when they came to do an estimate in addition to making detailed measurements of our utility room to make sure anything they installed would fit. They gave me three proposals ranging from low-end, mid-range, and high end options and explained the equipment in each of them in detail, including documenting all the model numbers, efficiency ratings, and specs. What they recommended matched up with my research I did prior to receiving estimates. They were very responsive, knowledgeable, and professional so I gave them the job. The crew arrived on time, worked hard the whole day, were respectful of my house, and did not require supervision (although, they told me I was more than welcome to ask questions and watch anything they were doing). They cleaned up, explained the warranty and rebate options with all the paperwork already filled out so that all I had to do was sign--they even mailed both the warranty and rebate off for me. The whole process went great. While their prices were fair they were not the cheapest, but I have no doubt they did a great job, didn't cut corners, and will stand by their work if I experience any problems. They are a reasonably sized HVAC business and not a one-man-band shop like many places in the area, so I know they will likely still be around through the life of the warranty and are well staffed to respond to emergencies, including a 24/7 emergency service number. Overall, we're very happy with the new system and it's a huge improvement over what it replaced--both the AC and furnace are much quieter than the old units, more energy efficient, and perform better. It's been a month since the install and everything has been working fine without problems."

The man I had my previous HVAC service contract with passed away in January and, before he died, he sold his service contracts to GAC.  I learned of this in two letters I received just about the time my spring service was due, one letter from the old company, explaining the death and sale, along with a letter from GAC welcoming me.  Since they had my money I figured I?d give them a try.  I called GAC on a Monday and scheduled my spring maintenance for Thursday.  On Tuesday my A/C made a horrendous noise and I shut it off.  Called GAC to ask if we could move the visit up to Wednesday and they said ?sure?.  Tech arrived on time on Wednesday, explained that my 19 year old system might not have too many years left.  I could spend $1,000 to replace the fan motor and cross my fingers that the condenser didn't go next, or invest in a new Furnace and A/C.  He patiently answered all my questions, we went over the pros and cons, and he didn?t talk down to me (which frequently happens as I am an older woman), under the circumstances it was a wonderful experience.  While he worked up the estimate for a new system in the van I did a computer search of the company and how much a new HVAC system should cost.  I figured I could spend weeks shopping around, but I had travel scheduled for much of April and really didn?t have time for that.  I lucked out, there were several rebates available in April from Washington Gas, PEPCO and Bryant, all of which the tech explained.  I was given two proposals with two different models, I accepted GAC?s proposal on the spot and they had their Quality Assurance man in my house on Thursday taking measurements and answering my questions (he also arrived right on time).  A new Furnace and Air Conditioner were installed on Monday, the furnace passed inspection yesterday, and everything is working well.  The new system is so much quieter than my old system and it appears to be very efficient.  Everyone I worked with at GAC was wonderful, very nice, professional, answered all my questions.  The three man team who installed the system was so upbeat for a Monday morning, I was amazed.  They arrived on time and went right to work like a well oiled machine.  One started outside on the Air Conditioner while the other began tearing out the furnace, the third was floating, helping each of the others, while unloading the trucks.  They had to work in a very tight closet like space but I never heard any grumbling.  They sang along with their music, truly seemed to like each other and they answered my questions as they worked.  They didn?t seem to be bothered by the fact that I checked in on them often.  A very different experience than the one I had 19 years ago when the old system was installed!  They warned me that, because of the area was tight, it could take up to 6 hours to complete, which it did.  They started a little after 8:00 and were done by 4:00. They left the area spotless and took their time walking me through the operation of the new thermostat, how to send in for the rebates and how to call for the county inspection.  All in all, I am happy I stayed with GAC Services and would highly recommend them.

"I would highly recommend HPC Services! They responded quickly when we called for an estimate on a new heat pump. The gentlemen who were in our home installing the unit were professional and polite and very nice to our little dogs. Sergio stayed and answered all of our questions until late in the evening. They offered us a free duct cleaning and that was completed on Monday after the Friday install. Emmett worked quickly and professionally. He was so very nice and easy to talk to. I was most impressed with the fact that they offer a Veterans discount. If are looking for an amazing company for any HVAC work, I urge you to give them a call!! Karen Hamner"

FAQs for heating and air conditioning service projects in Lothian, MD

Knowing how long your existing HVAC units can last is essential to determine if you need a repair or replacement. Typically, most modern air conditioning units can last between 15 to 20 years, and most furnaces can work properly for 15 to 30 years. If your HVAC system is on the older side and you decide to replace one unit, it might make sense to replace both simultaneously to save on costs and future hassle.

While different HVAC contractors might offer higher or lower prices than competitors, the best time to replace your HVAC system is when customer demand is low. The beginning of summer and the beginning of winter bring the most demand for HVAC systems, so if you can, consider replacing your HVAC units in the early spring or fall. Many HVAC companies offer special off-season coupons that help lower the overall cost.  

The average cost to hire an HVAC contractor is between $50 and $150 per hour if charging hourly. However, some HVAC contractors will charge a flat fee by the type of service they are performing—for example, an inspection can cost between $150 to $500. Keep in mind that emergency repairs—which are made after business hours or around major holidays—generally cost more than scheduled repairs.

Yes, most states require HVAC technicians to be certified, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed HVAC technician could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. 

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include: 

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.

The average cost of HVAC repairs is around $350. However, that price can be as low as $100 or as high as $2,000 or more, depending on the repair. For example, replacing a capacitor is a relatively inexpensive repair, ranging from $100 to $500. However, a compressor repair is a more expensive repair, ranging from $750 to $2,000.
