The Houston77202 calls we answer most often
If your system is doing any of the following, it is worth a diagnostic before the fault gets more expensive.
Refrigerant leak at a flare or coil connection
Yellow or orange burner flame instead of steady blue
Dead or bulging run capacitor on the condenser
Water pooling around the indoor unit or ceiling stains
Heat pump stuck blowing cold air in heating mode
One or two rooms that never reach the set temperature
Heating and air conditioning service built around Houston
Most of the work we do in Houston starts the same way: the system is running but the house is not comfortable. Before we replace anything, we measure airflow, static pressure and temperatures so you are paying for the actual fault.
Homes in Harris County tend to be a mix of older builds with original ductwork and newer infill construction, which means airflow problems show up very differently from one street to the next.
If your system is over ten years old and you have had two repairs in the last two seasons, a replacement comparison is usually worth running even if the current unit still runs.

Houston77202 HVAC questions, answered
Is my carbon monoxide risk something I should worry about?
With any combustion appliance, yes. A cracked heat exchanger can spill carbon monoxide into the living space, and it is odourless. We perform combustion analysis and a CO test on every furnace and boiler call in Houston, and we recommend a working CO alarm on every level of the home regardless of who services your equipment.
Are your technicians licensed and insured?
Every technician dispatched into Houston is licensed, insured and background-checked. We can provide proof of insurance on request before the visit if you would like it on file.
What causes water to leak from the indoor unit?
Almost always a blocked condensate drain line, a failed drain pan float switch, or a frozen coil melting faster than the pan can handle. In Houston we see algae and dust clogging drain lines constantly during March through November. It is a fast fix but ignoring it ends in ceiling damage.
How much does an HVAC service call cost in 77202?
A diagnostic visit in Houston typically runs $75 to $150, and that fee is usually applied toward the repair if you approve the work. Repair prices are quoted as a flat rate before we start, so the number you approve is the number you pay regardless of how long the job takes.
Do you charge extra for nights, weekends or holidays?
No. Our pricing in Texas is the same at 2am on a holiday as it is at 2pm on a Tuesday. Emergency calls are dispatched the same way as scheduled calls and carry no overtime premium.
Do you service commercial and light commercial properties?
Yes. Around Houston we handle rooftop packaged units, split systems, VRF/VRV installations and building automation faults for offices, retail, restaurants and multi-tenant buildings, including after-hours scheduling so you are not disrupting trade.
