"Courteous, Professional, and Knowledgeable HVAC Installer - Needed to replace a 25+ year old HVAC system in the coldest months of the year and SwiftPro was the right choice. I live in a condo with a tricky indoor/outdoor HVAC set-up. Tyler worked with me to ensure I had the right system that 'fit' in the area left after removing the old system. Workers were completely professional and knowledgeable during installation and dare I say - courteous. Installation was supposed to be same-day, but one part was unavailable at the time. Tyler and his staff hunted across the local area for the part and even sent an employee out to buy a space heater to spare me from the below-20 degree night. Part came in next day and installation was complete. Very satisfied with the outcome of the project."

When Glenmont Heating & Air Conditioning was founded 28 years ago, we had one goal in mind; providing area families, and businesses with solutions that fit their lifestyles and needs, as well as their wallets. If you have any questions about heating and air conditioning maintenance, a new HVAC system, or are looking into installing a more energy efficient system, Glenmont Heating and Air is the solution to your needs.

"Summary: Company charged me $1000+ for 2 separate service visits that did not fix my AC unit; technicians and Operations Manager are not truthful about work done; Operatiins Mngr will tell you find another HVAC company when you express dissatisfaction ….I contacted Glenmont Heating and Air Conditioning since my AC unit was not dispensing any cold air. Thermometer was set to 68° however the unit temperature was reading 77-80° (note this was the week of extreme heat wave). On 21Jun2024: Glenmont technician Roderick performed a service call. I spoke to him via phone after the call to which he told me he added refrigerant to the system. This did not fix the issue and the unit continued to not dispense cold air with the thermometer reaching 77-80° despite being set to 68°. I was charged $119 for this work. Operating Manager Tim Schindle is contradicting what the tech said and claims Roderick did not add any refrigerant. I again called Glenmont HVAC for a second service appointment. This technician claimed the coil needed to be cleaned. The second technician (Eric) then falsely reported on his report the unit temperature dropped to 68° when he left when I have photographic evidence showing the temperature in the high 70s. I waited about 24hrs as instructed for the thermostat to drop and it never did and the unit continued to not dispense cool air. I then called a supervisor (don’t recall name) who essentially told me due to the extreme temperatures everyone was experiencing HVAC issues and did not recommend any follow up service. I then had several back/forth emails with Operations manger Tim Schindler to notify him after 2 separate service visits, my air conditioning was not fixed. In the end he told me, and I quote “my system is old…we don’t know the maintenance history…it is best for both of us to find another HVAC company. He did however bill me $964 for the second service visit, which did not fix my issue. I ended up having to call another HVAC company who diagnosed the problem as a compression failure/ replaced the unit and now have cold air blowing. The second HVAC company did not understand why the 2nd technician from Glenmont Heating/Air Conditioning was changing coils and said this was not necessary to do. Second HVAC company showed me the reading of the compressor unit to which I could see no charge was registering, essentially the compressor was no longer working which was the root cause of my issue. In conclusion, I’m disappointed with Glenmont HVAC and feel they sent incompetent technicians who falsified their work. When I complained to the company and expressed my disappointment with their work (or lack there of) they told me to seek other HVAC company without fixing my AC unit but charged me $1000+. Poor business acumen and highly unethical company that needs to be held accountable for cheating customers and not performing quality work."

BlueStar Air Mechanical is a call away for your repair, maintenance and installation needs. We specialize in fixing and tuning up cooling, heating and plumbing systems for both residential homes and commercial establishments.

"I contacted Bluestar Air Mechanical for a second opinion after an appointment with Air One. I have a Carrier HVAC system, and the Air One technician recommended a complete system replacement, claiming the blower was bad, the furnace control board needed replacing, and that there were other issues. Since replacing the HVAC is a big investment, I wanted to get a second opinion. It was only after comparing the service from Bluestar that I realized Air One may have been pushing for a new system sale or lacked the expertise to properly diagnose and repair the actual problems. Isaac, the technician from Bluestar, spent about an hour thoroughly diagnosing and fixing the issues. He found burnt wiring in the furnace and discovered that the wrong capacitor had been incorrectly installed in the AC. Isaac replaced the burnt wiring in the furnace and the capacitor in the AC. After these repairs, my Carrier system was back up and running—without the need for a costly replacement. Bluestar, and Isaac in particular, demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and honesty. They focused on resolving the actual issues instead of pushing for an unnecessary system replacement. I highly recommend Bluestar for their reliable service and Isaac’s thorough and knowledgeable work."

"I have been a customer for a very long time and this scheduled maintenance and dryer vent cleaning was done by Cesar. I have to say he is one very thorough technician and I was very pleased with his inspection and vent cleaning. His service was so different than some of the ones I've had before. I even had one inspector tell me he didn't need to check in my attic which houses one of our two units. Let me tell you about Cesar, he even cleaned up behind my dryer for me. This is something that is rare in customer service. I have my HVAC seasonally maintenanced and never had a inspector be as thorough as him. The pictures he took and explained to me and the one problem he found that no other inspector had found in all this time. I tried to spare him from the attic heat for the repair and have him return on another day in the morning but he didn't mind going back in there to fix the problem for us although it was in the dead heat of the day. I just hope the company sees this review and knows what a good technician they have in Cesar."

"I had an absolutely terrible experience with McRae Air Conditioning and Heating. I purchased a home equipped with their HVAC system, and within just five months, the heat stopped working—right in the middle of winter during a snowstorm. My home was freezing at 50°F, so I called for service, which should have been covered under warranty. I scheduled an appointment, and the technician, after being several hours late, went to the wrong address, left a sticker on someone else’s door, and left without even trying to contact me. When I called back, the customer service rep was rude, dismissive, and completely unhelpful. He initially told me the technician was on the way and just 12 miles away—but after another hour of waiting, I called again only to be told that the technician had already “been to my house 2 hours ago” (the wrong one) and left a note. If the rep actually wanted to help, he would have told me this during my first call instead of wasting my time and leaving me sitting in the cold. Not once did the technician call me to confirm the address or check in after knocking on the wrong door. When I expressed my frustration, the rep rudely dismissed my concerns, saying, “Well, I had nothing to do with that,” and then interrupted me with, “Do you still want to rebook or not?” as if I had to stop talking or risk not getting another appointment. This was an emergency call in the middle of winter, and McRae handled it in the most unprofessional, careless, and disappointing way possible. If you’re considering using them for HVAC service, do yourself a favor and go with another company. I’ll update this review after the (hopefully successful) service call and speaking to the manager who was not there at 4 pm on a Wednesday."

"My AC failed and I had limited time to find a good solution, I made a phone call to Relax HVAC based on the online reviews and it was a great decision. Nasser came to check the situation, he gave a very detailed and comprehensive overview of the situation and provided with the options I had. I decided to replace the unit, Nasser went above and beyond to find a unit delivery service but there was nothing available over the weekend so this gentleman went for unit pick up himself and finished the installation within a day from my initial call. Moreover, the provided price was very reasonable.I can't be more happy with the outcome and highly recommend Relax HVAC"

FAQs for heating and air conditioning service projects in Falls Church, VA

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.
