True Fix A/C & Heating - Katy's Licensed HVAC Services

In Katy's heat, an oversized AC short-cycles, wasting energy and failing to dehumidify properly, while an undersized unit struggles to cool your home. Improper sizing is a common local issue that increases wear and utility costs. At True Fix, we perform a Manual J load calculation for every installation. This factors in your home's square footage, insulation, window placement, and more to determine the exact capacity needed for efficient, even comfort and lower bills.

Katy's humidity causes algae and mold growth in your AC's condensate drain line, leading to clogs and potential water damage. Our preventative maintenance includes physically clearing the drain line with specialized tools and applying an EPA-registered algaecide tablet to inhibit future growth. This simple, proactive step during your regular tune-up can prevent messy overflows and unexpected system shutdowns during our hottest months.

It could be either. We start with a thorough diagnostic repair service to check for issues like refrigerant leaks or failing components. However, if your system was incorrectly sized when installed—a common finding in newer Katy developments—repairs may only be a temporary fix. Our experts will analyze your system's performance and history. If sizing is the root cause, we'll explain how a properly sized replacement system, installed by us, will solve the uneven cooling and improve efficiency long-term.
