What it costs
$99 for one furnace, anywhere we work. The tech checks the gas pressure, the temperature rise, the safeties and the sequence of operation, which is the order the furnace lights, heats and shuts down in. A repair it turns up gets a written price first, and you decide.
Furnace tune-up, one system
$99
Heat pump, boiler or ductless mini split tune-up, one system
$99
Comfort+ membership, a heating maintenance visit every fall included
$199 a year
It’s priced per system, so a house with a second furnace for the upstairs is two tune-ups. A heat pump, a boiler or a ductless mini split is the same $99 a system.
With Comfort+ membership, $199 a year or $20 a month covers four visits every year: a heating maintenance visit in the fall, a cooling maintenance visit in the spring, a dryer vent cleaning, and a water heater flush with a sewer camera inspection. We book each one when it’s due.
What’s different in Fredericksburg
The NOAA station nearest these two ZIPs stands on the Rappahannock at 60 feet, 5.2 miles south-southeast of their middle. Its 1991 to 2020 normals add up 4,300 heating degree days a year and a January low of 25 degrees, and it logs about 25 more freezing nights a year than the Marine Corps air station at Quantico, though their July highs match.
The fuel depends on the ZIP. In 22405, 5,243 owner homes heat with electricity and 4,327 with natural gas; in 22406 gas edges ahead, 3,394 to 3,084. A heat pump tune-up is the same $99 a system and checks the defrost cycle and the backup strips. Propane heats 836 owner homes in 22406 and 504 in 22405, and a propane burner runs at close to three times natural gas’s manifold pressure, so its reading is set against propane’s spec.
In 22406, 2,747 owner homes went up in the 2000s alone. If the basement has been finished since, the furnace now sits behind a door, and Stafford County’s basement guide asks for 30 by 30 inches of clear floor in front of it and, for a gas furnace, two openings for combustion air unless the door is louvered or the furnace draws its air from outdoors. Shut in a tight room, a furnace can run short of the air it burns, and the burner and safety checks show it.
Falmouth’s houses run older: a typical owner home from 1983, about half before 1980, and more than half burning natural gas. A furnace in a house that age may share a flue with the water heater, so the tune-up watches the draft through a full cycle. Snow is the other test. The January 2016 blizzard buried Stafford County under 15 to 24 inches, and the January 2022 storm put just over a foot on parts of the Fredericksburg area. A high-efficiency furnace pipes its intake and exhaust through the wall or roof, and when drifts cover them it will usually shut itself down, so dig them out first.
By the numbers
From the Census Bureau’s 2020 to 2024 survey, owner-occupied homes unless it says otherwise.
ZIPs 22405 and 22406 as a whole: Fredericksburg mail on the Stafford County side, not the City of Fredericksburg.
When it’s worth doing
Out where propane is common, a furnace that fires and quits, or burns with a lazy, wavering flame, often comes back to gas pressure: a tank running low or a regulator out of adjustment. A tune-up reads the pressure at the furnace and tells you which.
Propane runs at a different gas pressure than natural gas, so the tune-up checks yours against propane’s numbers.
A furnace that went in with the house is close to 20 years old on a lot of these streets. That’s the age when inducer motors and control boards start to go, and a yearly look finds the tired ones before a cold night does.
Choosing who tunes it up
Questions to ask anybody who quotes you, us included.
That’s how a furnace in a finished basement lives all winter. Ask whether the tech fires it with the door closed and watches the flame and the draft, so a room that starves the burners shows up in October, not on a 20 degree night.
Ask before anyone comes out. Gas pressure and temperature rise are readings on a meter, so a real tune-up has numbers in it, not just a look at the filter.
Some tune-ups end in a list. Ask which items are failing now, which can wait a season, and what each one costs, before you agree to any of it.

Elvis Diaz did an excellent job cleaning our condo’s HVAC system. He was very knowledgeable about maintaining the unit and the price was very reasonable.
Questions
There’s no hard cutoff, but at the river station the first 32 degree night comes by November 1 in half of years, the week every furnace around here gets asked to work at once. Book September or October, and a repair it turns up gets fixed on a mild day.
$99 for one furnace, and the same for a heat pump, a boiler or a ductless mini split. If it turns up a repair, you get the price in writing before any work, and you decide.
No. The furnace tune-up is its own visit at $99. The Heating Check and the Clean Heat deep clean, the one that takes the blower wheel out and cleans it, are separate offers with their own terms on our Clean Heat page.
