Chaff and dust caked on the fins
A unit beside a field or a gravel drive pulls in whatever blows past. If you can’t see daylight through the fins by midsummer, the coil is choking; cleaning it is the heart of the tune-up.
An AC tune-up in Midland is $99 per system. The airport here has clocked a 74 mph gust, so look the unit over after storms.

Price in writing firstYou see every option priced before anything is ordered
What it costs
One price per system, $99. We go through it before a Northern Virginia July finds the weak part for you. Anything it turns up is priced in writing before any work, and if it can wait, we say so.
AC tune-up, one system
$99
Furnace tune-up, one system
$99
Heat pump, boiler or ductless mini split tune-up, one system
$99
Comfort+ membership, a cooling maintenance visit every spring included
$199 a year
A house with two systems books two tune-ups, one for each, and a heat pump or a ductless mini split is the same $99 a system. The heating side, a furnace or a boiler, gets its own tune-up in the fall at the same price.
With Comfort+ membership at $199 a year, the cooling maintenance visit comes every spring, along with a heating maintenance visit, a water heater flush with a sewer camera inspection and a dryer vent cleaning.
What’s different in Midland
Nine Midland homes in ten are detached, with no townhouses anywhere in 22728, so each outdoor unit stands alone, often on an open lot with nothing to break the wind. About 58 percent of owner homes heat with electricity, which in a house from the 1980s on usually means a heat pump that cools in July, heats in January and reaches spring with a whole winter on it. Most of the rest burn propane, with a straight air conditioner outside that has sat idle since September.
Midland has its own wind gauge. The automated weather station at Warrenton-Fauquier Airport, inside the County’s Midland service district, measured a 74 mph gust on August 13, 2021, when trees several feet across came up by the roots near Midland Road and Airport Road. It caught 60 mph in the June 2012 derecho and 67 mph in July 2022. After a blow like that, look before the cooling runs again: a limb on the grille, fins mashed or packed with leaves, the cabinet off its pad, kinked copper lines, a loose disconnect box. See any of it, leave it off and call us after the storm; we’ll check it all.
Water is the other storm. The village sits about 327 feet up on what the County calls an old lakebed, with floodplain along Marsh Run to the southwest. On August 10, 2022, a flash flood put Marsh Run over its banks and closed VA-610 in Midland. A condenser that stood in water stays off at the breaker until a tech has opened the control panel and checked the wiring and fan motor.
In the old village, at least half the historic buildings still standing went up between 1880 and 1910, and about one home in seven across the ZIP stood before 1940. Cooling came later, through an attic air handler or a ductless mini split with a head in each room, each with its own filter, coil and drain line. A ductless system is the same $99 a system.
By the numbers
From the Census Bureau’s 2020 to 2024 survey, owner-occupied homes unless it says otherwise.
ZIP 22728 as a whole: every Midland address, the village included. The Census place for the village alone has too few homes for steady figures.
When to book it
A unit beside a field or a gravel drive pulls in whatever blows past. If you can’t see daylight through the fins by midsummer, the coil is choking; cleaning it is the heart of the tune-up.
It cools all summer and heats all winter, so it piles up more hours in a year than an air conditioner that sits idle from October to May.
A weak capacitor is a small fix on a mild day in April. Found by a July heat wave, it’s a house with no cooling.
Choosing who tunes it up
Questions to ask anybody who books you, us included.
Out here outdoor units ride out measured gusts past 70 mph. Ask whether the tech checks the disconnect box, the flexible conduit into the unit and the line insulation, and writes down anything the weather loosened.
Ask what gets cleaned and what gets checked, and whether a second system costs extra. A number with no list behind it is hard to hold anybody to.
Ask for the findings in writing, with a price on anything that needs fixing and an honest word on what can wait. A tune-up you never see written down is one you take on faith.
An air conditioner doesn’t use up refrigerant. Low means it’s leaking somewhere, and a company that tops it up every spring is selling you the same refrigerant twice.

Showed up on time, worked quietly, recommended other maintenance procedures for my HVAC system. Good overall experience.
Questions
Yes, even if it missed the unit. A falling limb can yank on the copper lines or the wires along the house, and the August 2021 storm dropped a large tree onto wires on Rogues Road. If anything looks bent, loose or wet, leave the cooling off and call us. Often same-day, and we will tell you honestly when we can get there.
$99 per system, the same for a central air conditioner, a heat pump or a ductless mini split. A house with two systems books two. If the tune-up turns up a repair, you get its price in writing before any work, and you decide.
Once a year, in the spring, before the first heat wave. The heating side gets its own visit in the fall. The filter needs attention more often, every one to three months, and it’s the cheapest thing on the list.
Ready when you are
Call, or send the form at the top. Anything the tune-up turns up gets priced in writing before anybody touches it, and if it can wait, you’ll hear that too.
