At Service First, we believe an informed homeowner is a happy homeowner. As a locally owned and operated business in Austin, TX, we’ve curated this guide to answer the most pressing questions regarding our brutal summers, local building codes, and how we protect your investment.
We stand behind the quality of our craftsmanship. For every repair or service we perform, we provide a 1-Year Work Guarantee. If the specific repair we made fails within one year due to our workmanship, we will return and fix it at no additional cost to you.
We provide a 5-Year Manufacturer Warranty on new equipment installations.
Because of the extreme Austin heat, we recommend two visits per year: a “Cooling Tune-Up” in the spring and a “Heating Tune-Up” in the fall. Regular maintenance is often a requirement to keep your 5-year manufacturer warranty valid.
In Austin, most AC units are designed to maintain a 20-degree difference between the outside air and your indoor temperature. If it’s 105°F outside and your home is 75°F, your system is working at peak capacity. If it’s higher than that, you may have a refrigerant leak, a clogged filter, or aging ductwork and most likely need a repair for your system.
Austin is famous for “Cedar Fever.” We offer high-efficiency HEPA filtration and UV Air Purifiers that integrate directly into your HVAC system to capture local allergens and mold spores before they circulate through your home.
Yes. All our technicians are fully licensed and insured according to Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) standards. We strictly adhere to the latest National Electrical Code (NEC) and City of Austin building codes.
The initial “startup” of an AC compressor pulls a significant amount of electricity. If your breaker trips, it could indicate a failing capacitor, a loose wire in your panel, or a circuit that is overloaded. Since we handle both HVAC and Electrical, we are uniquely equipped to diagnose this “crossover” issue.
We serve the entire Greater Austin area, including Pflugerville, Round Rock, Cedar Park, Lakeway, Bee Cave, and West Lake Hills.
Yes. We know that an AC failure in a Texas summer isn’t just uncomfortable—it’s a safety issue. Our team is available 24/7 for emergency repairs with fast, transparent dispatching.
