P.A Propp Heating and Air has been serving Smyrna and the surrounding Cobb County area since 2016. What started as a locally owned heating and cooling company built on straightforward work and honest pricing has grown into one of the area's go-to HVAC contractors for homeowners and commercial property managers alike. We handle the full range of HVAC work: repair, installation, replacement, seasonal maintenance, and emergency response when your system goes down and you need help fast.
Whether you manage a commercial property on the Cumberland side of town or own a home near the Smyrna Market Village, we show up ready to work. Our technicians are trained on the equipment and the conditions that Georgia summers and winters throw at local systems. We are here when you need us, and we stay until the job is done right.
Local crew. Real technician on the phone. Quick to respond.
Call (470) 995-4495 to schedule service or request an estimate.
When the heat or the AC quits, you need a company that handles it all, not one that only covers part of the problem. We work on every major type of residential and commercial HVAC equipment, from aging central air systems to modern heat pump setups, and we bring the same standard of care to every job.
Services we provide:
We bring the same code-compliant HVAC work standard to every job, whether it is a routine tune-up or a full system replacement.
Not every HVAC company works the same way, and we think that difference is worth explaining. We started in 2016 as a small, locally owned operation focused on doing honest work for our neighbors in Smyrna. Nearly a decade later, that is still exactly what we are. The people who answer the phone and the technicians who show up at your door are part of this community.
We live and work in this community, and our work shows it.
Our technicians are qualified HVAC professionals who know the equipment and take the work seriously. We do not cut corners on the job to save time, and we do not leave until we have confirmed the system is running the way it should. We treat your home and its system the way we would our own. That is the standard we hold ourselves to on every call, for every customer.
We work with homeowners who want a reliable company they can call back year after year, and with property managers who need a contractor that shows up on time and communicates clearly. Both get the same level of service.
Reach out and a technician will follow up.
The quality of any HVAC job comes down to the person doing the work. Our technicians bring hands-on experience across a wide range of systems and repair scenarios, from condenser and compressor service on older central air units to air handler and blower service on newer variable-speed systems. They know how to read a system, find the real problem, and fix it correctly the first time.
We work on:
When we send a technician to your home or property, you are getting someone who has seen the problem before and knows how to handle it. That experience is what makes the difference between a repair that holds and one that fails again in three months.
Some homes need a full system replacement. Others just need a tune-up. Most fall somewhere in between, and figuring out which category your home is in starts with a proper diagnosis.
We handle the everyday repair calls that Smyrna homeowners deal with: an AC that stopped cooling in July, a furnace that will not turn on in January, a heat pump that is running but not keeping up. We also handle the bigger jobs when the time comes, including full HVAC system replacement, new heat pump installation, and ductwork repair and sealing for homes losing conditioned air to leaks.
Common residential calls we handle:
We are committed to the HVAC work done right the first time, which means a proper diagnosis before any repair, clear communication about what we find, and no work started without your approval.
Property managers and building owners in the Smyrna and Cobb County area need an HVAC contractor who understands that downtime costs money. We work with office buildings, retail spaces, restaurants, and light commercial properties, and we approach every commercial job with that in mind.
Our commercial HVAC services include:
We keep communication clear throughout the job and make sure the people responsible for the building know what we found, what we did, and what to watch for going forward. Qualified technicians handle the work on every commercial call, and code-compliant HVAC work on every job is not optional for us, it is the baseline.
When the heat or the AC quits, waiting until next week is not an option. We offer same-day and after-hours HVAC service for urgent situations, including systems that have completely stopped working, heating failures in cold weather, and cooling failures during Georgia's hottest stretches.
Common emergency calls we respond to:
We find it. We fix it. We test the airflow.
When you call for emergency service, you reach a real person who can help you understand what is happening and get a technician scheduled. We will get your comfort back on track as quickly as possible.
We know that one of the biggest concerns homeowners and property managers have about calling an HVAC company is not knowing what the bill will look like. We address that directly. Before any work begins, we explain what we found, what we recommend, and what it will cost. No surprise charges added after the fact.
When you call for an estimate on AC repair, furnace repair, heat pump work, or a full system installation, we give you a straight answer. If the scope of work changes once we are on the job, we tell you before we proceed.
Fast turnaround. Fair pricing. Comfortable results.
Affordable HVAC service does not mean cutting corners. It means doing the job right without padding the invoice. Call (470) 995-4495 to request an estimate or get a quote on any HVAC service.
We are not satisfied until the system is running the way it should and you are comfortable in your home or building. If something is not right after we finish a job, we want to hear about it and we will come back to make it right. That is not a marketing line. It is how we have built our reputation in Smyrna over the past nine years.
We take personal accountability seriously because this is a locally owned business and our name is on every job we do.
We are based in Smyrna and serve customers throughout Cobb County and the surrounding communities. If you are nearby, a local technician is close.
Areas we serve include:
Whether you are in central Smyrna or out toward the edges of the county, we can get to you. We'll take care of the system from here.
We have been serving Smyrna and Cobb County since 2016, which puts us at nearly ten years of local HVAC work in this community. Over that time we have built relationships with homeowners, landlords, and commercial property managers who call us back year after year.
We work with a wide range of customers: homeowners dealing with a repair or planning a system upgrade, landlords and property managers keeping rental units comfortable, and commercial building owners who need reliable HVAC service without downtime. Every customer gets the same level of care and the same standard of work.
Yes. Our technicians work in this area every day and understand the demands that Georgia's long, humid summers and variable winters put on local equipment. That local experience means they know what to look for and how to address the conditions that affect homes and businesses in Cobb County specifically.
When you call, you reach a real local person who knows the area and can help you understand what is happening with your system. We are a locally owned operation, and the people on the phone are part of the same community as our technicians.
If a problem returns after we finish a job, call us and we will come back to look at it. We take personal accountability seriously because our name is on every job we do, and we are not satisfied until the system is running the way it should.
Yes. We offer same-day and after-hours service for urgent heating and cooling failures, including evenings and weekends. A system that goes down during a Georgia summer heat wave or on a cold winter night is not something we expect you to wait on.
We aim to respond quickly and get a technician scheduled as soon as possible, with same-day availability for many calls. When you call (470) 995-4495, you will get a clear answer on timing rather than a vague window.
We do. If something is not right after we finish, we come back and make it right. That standard has been consistent since we opened in 2016, and it is what we mean when we say we treat your home and its system the way we would our own.

How do I know if my AC or furnace needs to be replaced rather than repaired?
A few signs point toward replacement over repair: the system is more than 15 years old, repair estimates are approaching half the cost of a new unit, or the equipment is struggling to keep up even when it is running. We look at the full picture when we diagnose a system and give you an honest read on whether repair or replacement makes more financial sense for your situation.
Why would a heat pump stop heating in winter or cooling in summer?
Heat pumps handle both functions, so a failure in either mode can have several causes. Common ones include a low refrigerant charge, a faulty reversing valve that controls which direction the system runs, a problem with the air handler or blower, or a controls issue. We diagnose the system carefully before recommending a repair, because the symptom does not always point directly to the cause.
How often should I schedule a maintenance tune-up for my HVAC system?
Once a year for each function the system handles. For a traditional split system, that means a spring AC tune-up before the Georgia cooling season starts and a fall furnace tune-up before the first cold nights. For a heat pump that handles both seasons, an annual visit covering both modes is the right interval. Regular maintenance catches small problems before they become expensive failures.
Same-Day and Emergency Availability
When the system goes down in the middle of a Georgia summer or on a cold January night, we offer same-day and after-hours service so you are not waiting until the next business day to get a technician on-site.
Is the HVAC work you do permitted and inspected to code?
Yes. We perform code-compliant HVAC work on every job, which means the work meets local requirements and, where a permit is required, we handle that as part of the job. If you have questions about what a specific project involves from a permitting standpoint, ask us when you call and we will give you a straight answer.
Why is one room in my house always hotter or colder than the rest?
Uneven temperatures usually point to one of a few things: leaky or undersized ductwork, a damper that is not positioned correctly, an airflow restriction somewhere in the system, or a system that was not sized correctly for the layout of the home. We start with an airflow and ductwork assessment to find where the system is losing efficiency before recommending a fix.
What do strange noises from my HVAC unit usually mean?
It depends on the sound. A banging or clanking noise often points to a loose or failing component inside the unit. A high-pitched squealing can indicate a blower motor or belt issue. Rattling at startup sometimes means a loose panel or debris in the system. A grinding noise is more serious and usually means a motor or bearing is failing. If the system is making a noise it did not used to make, call us and we will diagnose it before it becomes a larger problem.
Work Performed by Qualified HVAC Technicians
Every job, whether it is a routine tune-up or a full system replacement, is handled by qualified HVAC technicians who diagnose accurately, work cleanly, and do not leave until the system is running the way it should.
How do ductwork leaks affect my energy bills?
Leaky ducts allow conditioned air to escape into unconditioned spaces like attics, crawl spaces, and wall cavities before it ever reaches the rooms you are trying to heat or cool. The system compensates by running longer, which drives up energy costs and puts more wear on the equipment. Sealing the ducts recovers that lost efficiency and often makes a noticeable difference in how evenly the home is conditioned.
What does a seasonal tune-up actually cover?
For an AC tune-up, we check refrigerant levels, clean the condenser and evaporator coils, clear the condensate drain line, inspect electrical connections, and run the system through a full cycle to confirm it is operating at the right capacity. For a furnace tune-up, we clean the burners, inspect the heat exchanger, test the ignition system, check the flue, and verify the system is cycling safely. The goal is to catch anything that would cause a failure during the season when you need the system most.
Code-Compliant Work on Every Job
We treat your home and its system the way we would our own, which means every installation and repair meets code requirements and is done with the kind of attention to detail that holds up over time.
Can a dirty filter or coil really hurt my system that much?
Yes. A clogged filter restricts airflow across the system, which forces the blower to work harder and can cause the evaporator coil to freeze in summer or the heat exchanger to overheat in winter. A dirty evaporator or condenser coil reduces the system's ability to transfer heat, which means it runs longer and works harder to reach the same temperature. Changing the filter regularly and scheduling annual maintenance are the two simplest things you can do to protect the equipment.
Do I need to be home when the technician comes?
For any work that requires access to the interior of the home or building, yes. Someone needs to be present to provide access to the equipment and to review the diagnosis before any repair begins. If you have a property manager or a tenant who can be on-site and is authorized to make decisions, that works just as well.
How does pricing and estimating work before a job starts?
The technician diagnoses the system first, then explains what we found and what the repair or installation will involve before any work begins. We give you a clear picture of the cost so there are no surprises on the invoice. For larger jobs like system replacement, we walk through the options and provide a quote before scheduling the installation.
