๐ŸŒก๏ธ Georgetown-Specific

Multiple causes: low refrigerant, dirty evaporator coil, undersized system, duct leakage, or dirty condenser coil. We diagnose with actual performance measurements. See: AC Running All Day But Won't Reach Temperature.
Georgetown's 8-12 GPG hard water builds calcium scale in condensate drain lines faster than soft-water areas. Quarterly vinegar treatment prevents emergency shutdowns. See: Condensate Drain Maintenance for Hard Water.
Del Webb systems from 1995-2008 are at or past average expected life in Georgetown's climate. R-22 refrigerant changes the math significantly. We give honest on-site assessments. See: Repair vs Replace Guide.
Builder-grade systems in Wolf Ranch are commonly undersized for Georgetown's actual heat load. We do Manual J calculations to measure the gap. Options range from efficiency optimization to correctly-sized replacement. Call for an honest assessment.

๐Ÿ“– Also Called, HVAC Terms Glossary

HVAC has its own vocabulary, and it's normal not to know the official term for the equipment you're describing over the phone. Here's a plain-language glossary of terms customers ask about most, including what people commonly call them instead.

Mini-Split
A ductless heating and cooling system with an outdoor compressor unit connected to one or more indoor wall or ceiling units. Often described as a mini-splay, mini flicks, or main split when customers call in, but it's the same equipment.
PTAC
Short for Packaged Terminal Air Conditioner, the self-contained unit mounted through an exterior wall, most commonly recognized as the wall unit like in a hotel room. Most customers describe it this way rather than using the term PTAC.
Package Unit
A single outdoor cabinet that combines the compressor, condenser, and evaporator into one unit, commonly used on rooftops for light commercial buildings or occasionally set beside homes without a separate indoor and outdoor split. Customers correctly use this term more often than they use PTAC.
R-22 (Freon)
An older refrigerant phased out of new equipment production, still heard referred to as the Fran, or misheard as SR-22. Systems that use it are generally older and increasingly expensive to service due to limited refrigerant supply.
R-410A
The refrigerant used in most modern residential AC systems installed over the past two decades, replacing R-22 in new equipment.
Condensate Drain
The line that carries moisture removed from the air by your AC's evaporator coil out of the home. A clogged condensate drain is one of the most common causes of water leaks around an indoor AC unit.
Capacitor
A small electrical component that helps start and run the compressor and fan motors. Capacitor failure is one of the most common causes of an AC not turning on, and one of the least expensive repairs.
Refrigerant Valve Components
Customers sometimes refer to an unspecified refrigerant-side valve or fitting as a "K-valve." There isn't a standard part by that exact name, so we ask what symptom the unit is showing (leak, no cooling, hissing sound) and identify the actual valve or fitting on-site, whether that's a service valve, Schrader valve, or TXV.
SEER
Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, the rating that measures how efficiently an AC system cools over a typical season. A higher SEER rating generally means lower cooling costs for the same amount of cooling output.
