Heating and air conditioning service built around Rio Medina
If your high-capacity split air conditioning with gas or electric heat has started short cycling, blowing warm air or making a noise it never used to make, you are not alone — Rio Medina generates some of the highest call volume we handle in Texas. Extended extreme heat, attic temperatures well above 140 degrees, and grid stress during heat waves are the norm.
Homes in Medina 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.

Rio Medina78066 HVAC questions, answered
What brands do you service in Rio Medina?
All of them. Our 78066 technicians are trained on Daikin, Lennox, York, Amana and essentially every other residential brand sold in Texas, including discontinued lines. We keep a broad parts catalogue on the trucks for exactly that reason.
How quickly can a technician get to Rio Medina?
For the 78066 service area our target response time is 2-4 hours from the moment dispatch confirms your address. Real-world timing depends on the day — the first sustained heat or cold snap of the season is always our busiest period — but we hold technicians locally specifically so that window is achievable rather than aspirational.
Do you handle ductless mini-split systems?
Yes. Ductless installations have grown quickly in Texas, particularly in older homes without existing ductwork. We service indoor heads, clean filters and drain lines, check line-set insulation and diagnose communication faults between heads and the outdoor unit.
What does a new system cost in Rio Medina?
A complete residential replacement in the 78066 area generally lands between $6,000 and $13,000 installed, depending on capacity, efficiency rating and how much ductwork has to be modified. We always perform a Manual J load calculation first, because an oversized unit costs more to buy and runs worse than a correctly sized one.
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 Rio Medina, and we recommend a working CO alarm on every level of the home regardless of who services your equipment.
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.
