Package HVAC Units

What Is a Package HVAC Unit?

A package unit is a self-contained HVAC system that houses the heating and cooling components in a single outdoor cabinet. These systems are common in modular homes, homes with limited indoor space, and properties using rooftop or pad-mounted HVAC.

Unlike split systems, which have separate indoor and outdoor units, package units simplify design, reduce indoor noise, and are easier to access for service—all reasons why many Knoxville homeowners rely on them for year-round comfort.

Common Package Unit Problems We Repair

Package units are reliable, but they can still run into issues—especially without regular maintenance. If you're experiencing problems, our skilled technicians can diagnose and fix the issue quickly and affordably.

Signs You Need Package Unit Repair in Knoxville:

  • System won't turn on
  • Weak or no airflow through vents
  • Blowing warm air when set to cool (or vice versa)
  • Loud banging, grinding, or rattling noises
  • Frequent cycling or constantly running
  • Poor temperature control or uneven comfort
  • Increased energy bills without increased usage
  • Water leaking around the unit
  • Unit frozen or covered in ice

These symptoms may be caused by a range of issues—from electrical problems and refrigerant leaks to failing blower motors or dirty coils. Whatever the cause, we'll identify it quickly and provide a clear repair recommendation with upfront pricing.

Repair or Replace?

Consider Replacement If:
  • Your unit is 10–15+ years old

  • The repair cost exceeds half the value of a new unit
  • Your energy bills keep rising despite regular service
  • Replacement parts are no longer available

If you choose to replace your unit, we'll apply your diagnostic fee toward the new system and walk you through available financing options.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ About Package Unit Repair & Maintenance in Knoxville, TN

At J.C.'s Heating & Air, we understand that homeowners and businesses have many questions about package unit repair and maintenance. Below, we've compiled some of the most frequently asked questions to help you make informed decisions.

Answers to Common Questions from Knoxville Homeowners

A package unit is an all-in-one heating and cooling system with all major components—like the furnace, coil, and compressor—housed in a single outdoor cabinet. It connects to your home's ductwork and delivers year-round comfort using either electric, gas, or dual-fuel technology. They're common in modular homes, small homes, and rooftop applications.

We recommend biannual maintenance—once in the spring before cooling season and again in the fall before heating season. Regular tune-ups help catch issues early, maintain energy efficiency, and extend your unit's lifespan.

During a package unit tune-up, our technicians will:

  • Clean indoor/outdoor coils
  • Inspect and adjust fan motors and belts
  • Check refrigerant levels and pressures
  • Test electrical connections and safety controls
  • Lubricate moving parts
  • Clear drain lines and condensate pans
  • Inspect burners and ignition systems (for gas models)
  • Calibrate your thermostat
  • Replace or clean air filters

This ensures your system runs safely and efficiently all year long.

Common symptoms include:

  • Poor airflow or hot/cold spots in your home
  • Strange noises (rattling, banging, screeching)
  • Blowing warm air in cooling mode or cool air in heating mode
  • Constant cycling or difficulty reaching the set temperature
  • Leaks around the unit
  • Unusual smells or increased energy bills

If your unit shows any of these signs, call us for a professional assessment.

If your unit is under 10 years old and the issue is minor, repairs are usually the most cost-effective option. But if the system is older, needs frequent repairs, or has a major component failure (like a compressor or heat exchanger), replacement may be the smarter long-term investment. We'll always provide an honest recommendation based on your system's condition and history.

Yes! Our residential maintenance plans are perfect for package unit owners. Plans include:

  • Two seasonal tune-ups per year
  • Priority repair scheduling
