Freedom Air - Houston's Certified HVAC Services

That's often a clogged condensate drain line, a very common issue in our humid Houston climate. As your AC removes moisture from the air, the drain can get blocked with algae and debris. Freedom Air technicians will clear the clog using specialized tools, flush the line, and may apply an algae treatment to prevent a quick recurrence, stopping the leak and protecting your home from water damage.

It very well could be. The reversing valve is what allows your heat pump to change between heating and cooling. When it gets stuck or fails—a frequent repair we see in Houston due to constant system cycling—your unit may only blow cool air. Our experts at Freedom Air will diagnose the valve, check the associated electrical components, and perform the precise repair or replacement needed to restore your year-round comfort.

Preventive maintenance is key. Our local Freedom Air tune-up includes inspecting and cleaning the condensate drain to prevent clogs and checking the heat pump's entire refrigerant circuit, including the reversing valve operation, for early signs of wear. This proactive service helps catch small problems before they lead to a breakdown, especially important given how hard Houston systems work throughout the year.
