Steve's Heating & AC | Certified HVAC Repair in Houston, TX

This common Houston issue, often an evaporator coil freeze-up, is usually caused by restricted airflow from dirty filters, low refrigerant levels, or a failing blower motor. Our technicians are familiar with the specific strain Houston's humidity and high temperatures put on systems. We diagnose the root cause—whether it's a simple filter change or a refrigerant leak—to prevent future freeze-ups and restore efficient cooling.

Our maintenance service is designed to keep your system running reliably and efficiently. We perform a comprehensive check, including cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting electrical connections, testing capacitors (a common point of failure), and calibrating your thermostat. This proactive care helps prevent unexpected breakdowns, especially during our intense summer heat, and can extend the life of your equipment.

The decision depends on factors like the age of your system, frequency of repairs, and energy efficiency. If your system is over 10-15 years old, requires frequent fixes, or causes high energy bills, a replacement may be more cost-effective. Our experienced technicians provide honest assessments, explaining the pros and cons of repair versus replacement for your specific situation, so you can make an informed choice for your home and budget.
