A package unit puts heating and cooling in one cabinet outside the building, which saves indoor space and puts every component out in the weather at the same time. Guaranteed Climate and Refrigeration repairs, maintains and installs package units for both homes and businesses across Chesapeake and Hampton Roads. We service all major manufacturers regardless of brand or age, including access to parts for older discontinued models.
In a split system, the furnace or air handler lives indoors and only the condenser faces the elements. A package unit has no such luxury. The compressor, coils, blower, heat exchanger and every electrical connection sit together in one cabinet on a slab or a rooftop, exposed year-round.
In a coastal environment that changes what service has to cover. Cabinet integrity, weatherproofing and corrosion at electrical connections matter as much as refrigerant charge, and a small seal failure lets weather into components that were never meant to see it.
The upside is that everything is in one place, so diagnostics and repairs are usually straightforward once a technician is on site. Modern units also bring features older systems lack, including variable-speed fans that reduce energy consumption, two-stage cooling for better humidity control, and onboard diagnostics that simplify future service calls.

We service package units on homes and on business properties across Hampton Roads.
Carrier, Trane, Rheem, Goodman, York and Coleman, including older discontinued models.
Electrical testing, component function tests and ductwork evaluation on every call.
Three services cover the life of a package unit, from the first breakdown to the eventual changeout.
Complete diagnostics on the cooling side, the heating side and the electrical controls, with component function tests to find what actually failed rather than what failed last time.
Package Unit Repair Details
Full site assessment, equipment selection and ductwork integration, with heating capacity matched to the building rather than carried over from the old unit by default.
Package Unit Installation Details
Scheduled service covering coils, electrical connections, controls and cabinet condition, which is what keeps an outdoor cabinet from failing early in a coastal climate.
Package Unit Maintenance DetailsPackage units tend to give warning before they quit, and the warnings are worth acting on because everything lives outdoors.
If the unit is not heating or cooling, or is tripping breakers, that is a repair diagnostic. If it is running but the building is uneven or the bills are climbing, the cause is often duct-side rather than equipment-side, which is why our diagnostics include a ductwork evaluation.
If you manage a commercial property with rooftop equipment, our commercial HVAC and refrigeration services cover rooftop units and the rest of the building's mechanical systems alongside the package equipment on this page.

A package unit houses the heating and cooling equipment together in a single cabinet outside the building, usually on a slab or a rooftop. A split system divides the equipment between an indoor unit and an outdoor condenser. Package units save indoor space and simplify service access, but every component is exposed to the weather.
Yes, our technicians are trained on all major manufacturers including Carrier, Trane, Rheem, Goodman, York, and Coleman. We service both residential and commercial package units regardless of brand or age, with access to parts for even older discontinued models.
Because a package unit provides both heating and cooling and sits outdoors year-round, it benefits from scheduled service ahead of each season rather than a single annual visit. Commercial units running long hours need it more often still. Regular service catches corrosion and seal problems while they are cheap to correct.
Often yes, and a like-for-like changeout is the simplest replacement there is. We still verify the sizing rather than assuming the old unit was correct, and we evaluate the existing ductwork and curb or slab condition, because a new unit on failing duct connections will not deliver the performance it is rated for.
Yes. Rooftop units are covered under our commercial HVAC and refrigeration services, alongside the walk-in coolers, ice machines and kitchen equipment we maintain for restaurants and retail clients across Hampton Roads.
