Useful details for the conversation
You marked urgent cooling help. Call to discuss availability; do not wait for an online reply if the home is unsafe in the heat.
It is okay not to know the equipment type. Share what you already know without opening service covers.
Your choices stay on this page. The guide does not diagnose a fault, decide repair versus replacement, size equipment, quote a price, or book a visit. For a medical emergency, fire, or immediate danger, call 911.
Cooling options, made understandable
See how central AC, a ducted heat pump, and a ductless mini-split serve a home. The equipment choice starts with the rooms, existing system, and the work involved.
Whole-home cooling through a central indoor coil, blower, and duct system.
Cooling in summer, with the ability to reverse the cycle for heating.
An indoor unit serves a room or area without adding central supply ducts.
01 / Ducted cooling
A central AC system moves heat from the home to the outdoors. The indoor blower delivers cooled air through supply ducts, while return ducts bring room air back.
A new outdoor unit alone does not settle equipment compatibility, airflow, or comfort problems in individual rooms.
The equipment and the circuit it runs on
One team for the cooling.We bring both trades into the assessment, so the proposal can account for the HVAC equipment, controls, and related electrical scope.
Warm air? Keep the clues.
If you notice frost on accessible AC tubing during cooling, use the normal thermostat control to turn cooling off and arrange service. Look from outside the equipment; you do not need to touch the tubing or remove a cover.
Check the displayed mode and setting. Describe what you see rather than lowering the setting again and again.
Tell us whether air moves at the grilles and which rooms feel different. Avoid closing more vents to force air elsewhere.
A photo from a safe location and a short symptom history can help the service conversation. Leave equipment covers closed.

Think beyond the outdoor unit
Whether you are adding cooling or replacing equipment, compare the home’s needs and the complete installed scope. Capacity, compatibility, and airflow all matter.
Room needs, insulation, windows, layout, and a capacity assessment inform the equipment choice.
Review the indoor and outdoor equipment, controls, and any existing components that remain.
Address the supply and return paths, known room issues, and duct work included in the scope.
Define circuit, disconnect, wiring, condensate drainage, and access requirements for the proposed work.
Review the operating checks, control setup, filter information, and care instructions.
Understand price, exclusions, any required permits, warranty terms, financing, and future care.
Repair or replace?
Use the repair-or-replace tool to organize your questions, then compare its output with the diagnosis and complete proposal.

Plan ahead of the hot-weather rush
Routine cooling maintenance is a chance to review operation, airflow, coils, controls, and drainage before the busiest part of the season. The exact work depends on the equipment and the agreed visit scope.
Financing is available on request. Review the veteran and military discount program and confirm current eligibility and terms.

Reviews of PRO Electric plus HVAC from homeowners and businesses in our community.
Share your address and the service you need. A request does not confirm an appointment. For urgent loss of cooling, call to discuss availability. For immediate danger or a medical emergency, call 911.
Choose the applicable service type and AC. For a new central system, use Installation → AC → AC System. Keep your guide note for the conversation, or paste it if an additional-information field appears.
Installation estimates are free. Diagnostic, repair, and maintenance visits may carry separate charges. More ways to contact PRO.
Useful answers before you call
Repair, maintenance, equipment choices, and the installation conversation.
Ask PRO: 703-225-8222PRO Electric plus HVAC provides AC repair, maintenance, tune-ups, installation, and replacement in Northern Virginia. We also discuss emergency cooling needs, heat pumps, ductless mini-splits, compatible thermostats, and related HVAC and electrical work.
The cause may involve thermostat settings, airflow, the indoor or outdoor equipment, refrigerant, or an electrical problem. Visible ice can also accompany a cooling fault. A symptom does not identify the failed part; we assess the system before recommending a repair.
Turn cooling off at the normal thermostat control and arrange service. Do not chip the ice, heat the tubing, or remove equipment covers. Thawing does not correct the cause, and recurring ice does not by itself prove a refrigerant leak.
Yes. Call 703-225-8222 to discuss an urgent cooling problem, your location, availability, and applicable charges. If dangerous heat makes the home unsafe, move to a cooler place. For a medical emergency, fire, or immediate danger, call 911.
Compare the diagnosis, repair scope, equipment condition, repair history, comfort concerns, warranty, and replacement proposal. Age alone does not settle the choice. We explain the options so you can consider the work and cost before proceeding.
Uneven cooling may relate to airflow, duct leakage or layout, controls, insulation, windows, or equipment performance. A larger system is not automatically the solution. Tell us which rooms are affected and when you notice the difference.
Annual professional cooling maintenance before the busy season is a useful starting point. Follow the equipment and filter instructions for the care needed between visits. An active cooling, water, ice, or electrical problem should be reported when scheduling.
A tune-up is planned care with an agreed inspection and maintenance scope. A repair visit investigates an active problem and addresses approved corrective work. Tell us about symptoms so the visit is scheduled appropriately, and ask which charges apply.
PRO Electric plus HVAC is licensed for HVAC and electrical work under Virginia contractor license 2705181607. We can assess the equipment and related circuit, disconnect, controls, or wiring within the proposed scope. Repeated breaker trips should not be treated with repeated resets.
Yes. In cooling mode, a heat pump moves heat out of the home much like an air conditioner. It can also provide heating. The proposal should account for cooling and heating needs, controls, electrical supply, and any backup heat arrangement.
A ductless mini-split may suit an addition, converted space, or home without suitable ducts. We assess the rooms served, equipment capacity, unit locations, connections, drainage, and electrical needs. A single indoor head does not guarantee equal comfort in every closed room.
Ask for the equipment and compatibility, capacity assessment, duct and airflow work, electrical and drainage scope, controls, access needs, startup checks, exclusions, and warranty terms. Compare complete proposals instead of only the outdoor unit or headline price.
No. Equipment sizing, indoor/outdoor compatibility, airflow, installation quality, and the home affect comfort and performance. A higher efficiency rating is useful context, but it is not a guarantee of a particular bill reduction or the right capacity.
Financing is available on request. Ask about current eligibility and terms, and review our veteran and military discount program. Any applicable offer should be confirmed for the proposed work.
