What's Causing the Problem
Georgetown-specific causes based on 3,200+ service calls. We've seen these exact failure patterns in Wolf Ranch, Sun City, Berry Creek, and Teravista homes.
Low Refrigerant / Refrigerant Leak
The #1 cause in Georgetown. Hard water scale builds on coils, slowly leaking refrigerant. A system 10-20% low runs but can't reach setpoint.
Failed Run Capacitor
Georgetown's 100°F+ heat kills capacitors. When they fail, the compressor runs at partial capacity, AC cools weakly or not at all.
Dirty or Frozen Evaporator Coil
Georgetown's humidity causes rapid coil icing when airflow is restricted. Ice insulates the coil, no heat transfer, no cooling.
Oversized or Undersized System
Many Georgetown builders install undersized units. System runs 100% but can't handle the heat load on peak days.
Dirty Condenser Coils (Outdoor Unit)
Cedar, cottonwood and dust clog Georgetown outdoor coils every spring. A 30% blockage reduces efficiency by up to 30%.
Thermostat Calibration Drift
Older thermostats read 3-5°F off actual room temp. System shuts off before cooling is complete.
