Residential HVAC · Same Values Since 1972
We don't guess. We test.
Most service calls in this industry start with a visual inspection and a guess. Tru72 starts with real measurements taken by certified technicians, so the recommendation matches the actual problem in your actual home. The diagnostic-first standard that took root in 1972 lives on through Tru72 Heating & Cooling, one customer, one system, one relationship at a time.

What we stand for.
When our shop opened in Albany, Oregon in 1972, the founding principle was simple: do honest work, know your craft, and stand behind your word. That standard outlasted decades of industry change, equipment trends, and business cycles. It is the reason the company is still here.
In 2025, the business evolved into Tru72 Heating & Cooling. The name reflects expansion into Portland and Southwest Washington. The standard did not change. Every technician dispatches with the same expectation: measure first, recommend second, stand behind it.
Clean work on every job. Quality equipment and service. Comfort for every homeowner we serve. Three words. One standard. Since 1972.

About Tru72 Heating & Cooling.
Frequently asked.
What makes Tru72 different from other HVAC companies?
Tru72 is a diagnostic-first residential heating and cooling company with roots dating back to 1972. We test before we recommend, and measure before we quote. Every service call begins with real instruments (refrigerant gauges, capacitor meters, manometers, combustion analyzers) before we propose a repair. Every replacement is sized with a Manual J load calculation against the actual home, not the equipment that was there before. The standard hasn't changed since the business opened its doors in 1972: honest work, technical excellence, stand behind your word.
Why does Tru72 start with diagnostics instead of a visual inspection?
Because guesses cost homeowners money. Most service calls in this industry start with a visual inspection and a quote based on what the symptom usually means. That guesswork pushes homeowners toward the expensive, common assumption instead of the actual, often smaller fix. Tru72 starts with measurements (pressures, temperatures, voltages, airflow, combustion) so the recommendation matches the data. You see the readings, you see the finding, you decide what gets repaired.
How much does a service call or diagnostic cost?
The Tru72 service-call fee is $72. That covers a real diagnostic by a certified technician, with measurements and a written finding. If you approve the repair, the $72 is credited toward the work, so you're not paying twice. Mission Ready Plan members (first responders, teachers, and military) pay $39.
What should I expect during my first Tru72 appointment?
A certified Tru72 technician arrives in a marked truck and walks the system with you first, so the conversation starts with what you're experiencing. Then the diagnostic runs on real instruments: refrigerant pressures and temperatures, electrical readings on motors and capacitors, airflow and static pressure on ductwork, combustion analysis on gas appliances. When the data tells us where the real problem is, we explain the finding in plain English, write up the repair options with prices, and you decide what to do next. No upsell pressure. No "while we're here" add-ons that weren't measured.
How quickly can Tru72 come out?
Same-day and next-day appointments are available across most of our service area when you call before 2 p.m. For genuine emergencies, no heat in winter, no cooling during a heat advisory, gas smell, carbon monoxide alarm, we dispatch a real technician 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The phone is answered any hour by a real person.
