AC Repair in Dallas: what's different
Dallas AC repair calls peak during the first long run of 100°F days, when weak capacitors, worn contactors and tired condenser fan motors fail under constant load. North Texas hail adds another common problem: flattened condenser fins that choke airflow and push head pressure up on the hottest afternoons.
Clay soil movement around slab homes can tilt outdoor unit pads and stress refrigerant lines, which sometimes leads to leaks at brazed joints. Two-story homes in Far North Dallas often have a separate upstairs system, so tell the tech which unit is failing before the visit.
Dallas climate
Hot summers with occasional 105°F days, spring hail and severe storms, and winters that are usually mild but can bring hard freezes and ice that test heat pumps and gas furnaces.

FAQ
AC Repair questions
Can hail damage make my Dallas AC stop cooling?+
Yes. Badly flattened coil fins restrict airflow and reduce cooling. A tech can comb light damage or document heavier damage for an insurance claim.
Should I repair or replace my AC?+
Repair is usually the right call if the system is under 10 years old and the repair costs less than a third of a new system. Past 12–15 years in Las Vegas heat, or with an R-22 leak, replacement often makes more sense.
Why does my AC run but not cool?+
The most common causes are a dirty filter or coil, a failed outdoor fan motor or capacitor, or low refrigerant from a leak. A tech can tell which with a pressure and temperature test.
