Air Conditioning in Texas: what's different
Air Conditioning across Texas depends on the climate (IECC climate zones 2–4). In hot-humid climates the air conditioner removes moisture as well as heat, so refrigerant charge, airflow and a clear condensate drain matter as much as raw capacity. Oversized systems short-cycle and leave rooms clammy.
In Texas specifically: extreme summer heat. Long stretches of 100°F days wear out capacitors, fans and compressors.
Texas licenses air conditioning and refrigeration contractors through the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR). Every licensed contractor's number should appear on contracts and vehicles. Common systems in Texas: Central AC + gas furnace, Heat pumps, Attic air handlers, Zoned two-story systems.
Most of Texas uses a competitive retail electricity market on the ERCOT grid, with delivery companies such as Oncor and CenterPoint. Austin Energy, CPS Energy and other municipal utilities serve their cities directly. Atmos Energy, CenterPoint and Texas Gas Service supply natural gas.

FAQ
Air Conditioning questions in Texas
Can I get air conditioning service anywhere in Texas?+

What should I do with my HVAC during a Texas winter storm?+
Lower the thermostat slightly to reduce strain, keep the outdoor unit clear of ice, and check that condensate lines aren't frozen.
How do I know if my AC needs repair or replacement?+
Age, refrigerant type and the failed part decide it. A newer system with a bad capacitor or fan motor is a repair. An older R-22 system with a failed compressor or leaking coil is usually a replacement.
Why is my AC running but not cooling?+
Common causes are a dirty filter or coil, low refrigerant from a leak, a failed outdoor fan or capacitor, or a frozen indoor coil. Turn the system off if you see ice and call for a diagnosis.
