What it costs
The same price book our estimator runs on, for a central air conditioner on its own, keeping the furnace you have. A single-stage unit on a small house sits near the bottom; a variable-speed one on a big house, near the top.

Monthly figures: 60mo @ 0% APR on each starting price, the whole price financed, on approved credit. Longer plans lower the payment and cost more in total. The lender sets the final terms. How financing works
The HVAC replacement cost estimator narrows it to your house. Then a tech measures, and you get the installed price in writing before anything is ordered.
With Comfort+ membership at $199 a year, the diagnostic visit is included, and half of each repair bill is banked toward replacing that system, up to $1,500.
What’s different in Remington
Across ZIP 22734, the Town and the county land around it, 639 of the 858 owner homes heat with electricity, usually by heat pump, replaced as a whole system for $8,499 to $21,650. The air conditioner swapped by itself sits on a furnace: 92 owner homes burn propane and about ten use a gas line. There the furnace’s blower moves the cooled air, so while the furnace is sound, only the condenser outside and the coil on the furnace change.
Age comes in two booms. The ZIP has 287 homes from before 1940 and 213 from the 1950s, then a lull, then 377 from the 1980s, its busiest decade, and about 200 apiece in the 1990s and 2000s. The Victorian and I-house homes on Main, Church, Washington and Franklin Streets got cooling long after they were built. A 1980s house is past its first air conditioner and often its second, and a builder unit in Lee’s Glen or The Meadows has close to twenty summers on it.
Then the river. The Weather Service’s flood table for the Rappahannock at Remington is the best guide to where a new condenser belongs. At 15 feet, Tin Pot Run Road and Sumerduck Road flood; at 20, water reaches a few homes south of town; at 25, parts of downtown near the railroad tracks. The river crested at 23.10 feet in June 2018, and the record, 30 feet, dates from October 1942. If your pad sits below a level the river has reached, price a raised stand with the new unit.
Wind and heat take their share. On June 1, 2012, thunderstorm winds estimated at 76 mph damaged six to twelve homes off Justin Court, and Warrenton 3 SE, about ten miles north-northeast and some 225 feet above the river bottom, averages about 21 days a year at 90 or hotter. Size the new unit for the afternoon load on your own house.
By the numbers
From the Census Bureau’s 2020 to 2024 survey, owner-occupied homes unless it says otherwise.
ZIP 22734 as a whole, the Town included: its own homes are too few for steady Census figures. About one home in fourteen in this ZIP is in Culpeper County.
When it’s time
When Tinpot Run or the river comes up, the outdoor unit takes the water first. Silt in the coil and a soaked fan motor can cut its life short even if it starts afterward. If the furnace sits on a floor the water never reached, a new condenser and coil, set higher, may be the whole job.
An air conditioner put in before 2010 most likely holds R-22, which hasn’t been made since 2020. A leak on one of those usually ends the repair road.
It’s the pump at the heart of the outdoor unit and its costliest part. Out of warranty on an older unit, the repair can come close to half the price of a new AC, the point where Goodman says replacing may be the better money.
Permits, locally
Fauquier County counts swapping an electric appliance for a similar one in the same spot as an ordinary repair that needs no permit. Moving an appliance to a new spot takes one. Source.

Choosing who installs it
Questions to ask anybody who quotes you, us included.
The ZIP has 213 homes from the 1950s, and many got central air years after they went up, on ducts first laid out for heat. Ask whoever quotes to check the supply and return runs before choosing a size, so ductwork never built for it doesn’t starve the new condenser.
Ask how they picked the size. Copying the old nameplate repeats whatever was guessed when the house was built.
The outdoor unit and the coil on the furnace are rated as a pair. Ask whether the quote replaces both, and what happens to the line set.
A good company puts the repair price next to the replacement range and lets you choose. Already holding somebody’s big number? Take the free second opinion first.

Questions
Two offices, for different parts. The Town of Remington issues its own zoning permit, and Fauquier County’s Building office, at 16 Courthouse Square in Warrenton, takes the building permit application with a copy of it attached. That comes up mostly when the condenser moves to higher ground, since a new spot is County permit work.
Price both. Rented homes in 22734 have a median build year of 1957, and most already heat with electricity. If yours has a sound propane furnace, a new condenser and coil keeps it working. If the furnace is tired too, put a heat pump system, $8,499 to $21,650 installed, beside the pair at $8,898 to $23,000.
$5,942 to $14,450 installed for a central air conditioner on its own, keeping the furnace you have; size and efficiency set where yours lands. An AC and furnace together run $8,898 to $23,000. The HVAC replacement cost estimator gives your house its own number.
It’s worth pricing. A heat pump cools exactly like an AC and also heats on mild days, so with your gas furnace it becomes dual fuel. A heat pump system runs $8,499 to $21,650 installed, and we’ll price it both ways.
Ready when you are
Call, or send the form at the top. A tech measures the house and puts the installed price in writing before anything is ordered, and if the old AC is worth fixing, you’ll hear that first.
