Maintaining Efficient Cooling Systems for Barton Hills Homes

What are the most common AC issues in Barton HIlls?
With decades servicing the greater Austin area, we’ve encountered just about every possible scenario with air conditioning in Texas. Here are common issues that AC units experience.
If it’s summer here in Austin, chances are that your unit is running fairly continuously simply to maintain the desired temperature in your home. However, if you’re concerned about how much your AC is running because you’re never achieving the set temperature, the air feels clammy even though the AC is on, your home is cooling unevenly, or your energy bill has increased significantly over last year, it’s time to check in with a professional.
A constantly-running AC unit could be a sign of thermostat failure, dirty coils, old parts, electrical issues, and more.
If your air conditioner can’t keep up with demand, it needs an assessment as soon as possible. A struggling AC might simply be a sign you’ve skipped regular maintenance but could indicate a larger problem requiring repairs or replacement.
If your AC sounds like it’s having a hard time, it probably is.
- Squealing sounds might indicate a faulty or poorly aligned belt
- Hissing is likely a sign of a refrigerant leak
- Clicking when the AC turns off or on could mean you have a relay problem
- Banging or thumping are usually created by issues with the blower or motor assembly
- Screeching noises might be the result of problems with the compressor or motor fan
- Buzzing sounds are created by electrical problems
- Rattling noises could be indicative of problems with the AC fan or motor
- Grinding noises often signal trouble with motor bearings
Your AC naturally creates moisture, but if there’s excessive accumulation, it can lead to leaks. Water leaks can be caused by a clogged condensate line, a broken condensate pump or float switch, a damaged drain pan, a disconnected drain line, frozen coils, and low coolant levels.
If one area of your home is consistently hotter or colder than others, the issue could be related to your air conditioning system. Common AC issues that cause uneven cooling are an old, inefficient unit, incorrect placement of the thermostat, mechanical failure, corroded electrical connections, or a system that’s too large to handle your home.
Ice is common when your AC is working too hard. This can be the result of low refrigerant or a refrigerant leak. Ice can also be caused by dirty coils, a broken fan, or faulty wiring.
Our Customers Love Us
Honesty over everything. Two other companies said my 20 year old system was on its last legs, even though it was performing well, but these guys recommended some simple restoration fixes to keep it going strong. Not to mention they were kind, prompt, and knowledgeable. Take a wild guess who I’m using to replace it when it eventually needs to be!?!
I have been using Redhome’s services for my house and rental properties. He is always honest, prompt, and reliable.
The technician must be experienced as he immediately knew what the problem was & 30 minutes later cool air was coming out of the vents! I wish there were more stars to check 👍!!!!
Eldon is prompt , detail oriented, explains his work, and is courteous, friendly, and very knowledgeable and capable!!
Came right away and bing bang boom, fixed everything and out the door within an hour. Elton was a great guy and gave great service
Great work at an affordable price! Elton came out on short notice and stopped a leak for us and got our AC working again. Highly recommend!
Elton is truly one of a kind. We have trusted Elton and his team for every client of ours who has needed HVAC support, and they have been consistently excellent every time. Elton is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and dependable, and he always takes the time to explain things clearly and make sure the job is done right. Anna is also amazing. She is kind, responsive, and so helpful, and together they make such a strong team. They are quick to respond, easy to work with, and always provide the kind of service that gives us confidence when referring them to our clients. They are truly a powerhouse team and, in our experience, one of the very best in Austin.
We had Mr. Elton Stewart of Red Hat come by Sunday early morning as promised. He quickly diagnosed the issue with our HVAC and fixed the problem. Fantastic. Also reasonably priced. Thank you Mr. Stewart and Red Hat.
Mr. Elton Stewart from Red Home HVAC Services serviced our AC unit this morning. On a Sunday and early morning right on time as promised. Fantastic, very happy. He was extremely professional, diagnosed the issue quickly and rapidly and fixed the problem. All this and reasonably priced. Thank you Mr. Stewart and thank you Red Home.
Great experience with Redhome! Elton came in to fix several issues due to another HVAC company’s incorrect installation.
Great professional work at a reasonable rate. On time and efficient too!
Hands down the best service experience we've had with HVAC in Austin. Our AC went out and our normal provider (which we had on subscription!) wasn't available for a week. Redhome picked up the phone, and the team was out the same day. They diagnosed and fixed in no time. No less than a day later, we had another unrelated issue, and they were back at our house over the weekend. Honest, skilled, and just genuinely good folks. This is the team you put in your phone and call whenever you have issues.
My A/C went out during the typical 90°F+ Austin spring evenings and made it unbearable to sleep. Devin came out, walked me through how my system worked and its different components, did some basic preventative maintenance on the system, and explained what to look out for in the future. Great company and I can't recommend them enough. They offer a couple of packages available for continued support for the year which is great for the Texas heat if you have children or animals that can't be without A/C.
Exceptional knowledge, service and professionalism. Pricing is approachable and detailed out.
RedHome is always fast to respond, quick to find the issue and the service is like no other. Highly recommend if you want a trustworthy family owner business with integrity.
We recently had a new air conditioning unit installed and could not be happier with the experience. We shopped around quite a bit before making a decision, and this company stood out immediately for their honesty and transparency. No pressure, no gimmicks — just straightforward information and fair pricing. Our technician, Elton Stewart, was fantastic. He was kind, professional, and took the time to explain everything clearly. You can tell he genuinely cares about doing the job right. The installation went smoothly, and everything is working perfectly. If you’re looking for an honest company with skilled technicians, I highly recommend them and definitely ask for Elton!
The absolute best HVAC company in Central Texas and Austin. Do not hire Radiant or another private equity owned HVAC company. Elton is the best.
Elton and Devon were incredible! I texted them my heat had gone out on the day before another cold snap was coming. They were there the same day, on time, and fixed my problem onsite. I will definitely use again and could not recommend more highly!
Prompt, professional, very knowledgeable, more than fair, honest, clean. Feel lucky to know about Redhome. I'm a remodeler and I've seen all kinds of contractors. These guys are the real deal, the ones you're looking for.
Elton always provides great service and clear explanations of any issue. Highly recommend.
Our entire experience from start to finish with Redhome was exceptional. Elton was very professional and provided top notch service with clear communication and precision throughout. They were recommended to me from a friend and I could not be more impressed
Elton and Redhome are always quick and reliable! Love working with them!!!
Redhome showed up at the time that I was given. Other services were not always so prompt. Elton was extremely helpful and knowledgeable.
Best experience… Elton is very knowledgeable and so patient. He was able to answer all my questions and put my mind at ease.
Third time using Redhome for home ac/heating problems. They are always very responsive, knowledgeable, polite and genuinely seem to enjoy helping fix your problem. Thanks!
As usual, Elton did a great job! He has been to my home to check my gas heater and air conditioner for many years. Because of his attention to detail the working life of my older unit has been extended by at least a couple of years. Today, Elton did routine winter maintenance, checked for gas leaks, changed the filter and did a small repair on the unit. He is always professional, polite and friendly. I took advantage of signing up for the spring and winter checkups for next year to secure a place in line. When it comes time to replace my air conditioner and gas heater I will get Elton’s input and already plan on having him do the installation.
Elton is such an honest and informative guy. So glad we found RedHome!
Our go-to guy! Professional, prompt, and just a great guy. We are so fortunate to have his help!
I appreciate that this is a local, family-owned business. Anna was very helpful scheduling my appointment, and Elton did a great job diagnosing and fixing my AC in a single visit. He provided clear explanations and estimates, and he was friendly and easy work with.
Elton is the best! He was available in a pinch and solved the AC problem same day. He is my go to!
Elton came out on a Sunday with less than 3 hours notice! He addressed the issue with my ac unit within 30 minutes and his pricing is always very reasonable. I can’t recommend Elton / Redhome Services enough.
