Heating Emergencies in the Hill Country

While Texas is known for heat, our winter freezes are often more dangerous because homes and grids aren’t built for them. When a ‘Blue Norther’ hits New Braunfels, temperatures can drop 40 degrees in hours.

The Heat Pump Challenge: Many local homes rely on electric heat pumps. When temps drop below 32°F, older units struggle to extract heat from the air, switching to expensive ’emergency strip heat’. We specialize in optimizing heat pump defrost boards and verifying auxiliary heat logic to keep your bills from skyrocketing during a freeze.

Our 'Code-First' Gas Safety Protocol

Safety is our absolute mandate. A cracked heat exchanger or a back-drafting flue can introduce odorless Carbon Monoxide (CO) into your home.

We don’t guess—we measure:

  • Combustion Analysis: We use digital analyzers to measure CO levels in the flue gas to the part-per-million.
  • Camera Inspection: We snake flexible cameras into the heat exchanger to identify hairline cracks invisible to the naked eye.
  • Draft Verification: We ensure flue gases are rising out of your roof, not spilling back into your attic or closet.

Why Your Heater Smells Like It's Burning

We get hundreds of calls in November from homeowners in Seguin and Canyon Lake reporting a burning smell. Good News: It is usually just dust burning off the heating elements after sitting idle for 9 months.

When to worry: If the smell persists for more than 45 minutes, or smells like melting plastic or rotten eggs (sulfur), shut the system off and call us immediately at 830-243-5318.

Comprehensive Capabilities

Common Questions

Yes. During freezing weather events, we prioritize households with elderly residents or young children in New Braunfels and Seguin.
It might be in ‘Defrost Mode’. In winter, the outdoor unit freezes over and must melt the ice. If it stays cold for more than 15 minutes, your reversing valve or defrost board may have failed.
Check it monthly. Winter heating circulates a lot of dry dust and pet dander. A clogged filter is the #1 cause of furnace overheating and shutdowns.
