We provide clear, honest diagnostic solutions designed to get your home back to a comfortable temperature while protecting your AC system’s long-term health, honoring the Jenkins Family’s 1949 promise to care for your property as if it were our own.

The Austin Challenge: Summer Strain and Component Wear

In Austin, an AC breakdown is usually the result of your system working overtime to combat the heat. When temperatures stay in the triple digits, your AC’s internal parts – like capacitors, fan motors, and compressors – are under constant pressure. Over time, this leads to parts wearing out or losing efficiency. Without a thorough diagnostic check, a simple part failure can lead to a much larger, more expensive breakdown. At ABC, we treat every diagnostic visit as a complete health check for your cooling system.

Our Signature Austin HVAC Diagnostic Solutions

We provide a systematic approach to identifying AC issues in Central Texas:

Electrical Component Testing

We check the “brain” and “muscles” of your AC unit, including the control boards, capacitors, and contactors. By finding parts that are starting to weaken, we can replace them before they leave you without air on the hottest day of the year.

Refrigerant & Pressure Checks

Your AC needs the right amount of refrigerant to move heat out of your home. We check for leaks and ensure your system’s pressures are calibrated correctly. Proper levels prevent your compressor from overheating and keep your energy bills in check.

Airflow & Ductwork Inspection

Sometimes a cooling problem isn’t the AC unit itself, but the vents and ducts. We inspect your home’s air pathways to ensure they aren’t blocked or leaking, which ensures that the cool air your system produces actually reaches your living rooms.

Commercial System Diagnostics

We manage the complex cooling systems for Austin’s medical offices, retail spaces, and commercial buildings. we provide the rapid, accurate diagnostics needed to keep your business cool and your employees comfortable.

The System Health Audit

Every service begins with a thorough evaluation of your entire HVAC unit. Tom Riggs and his team look for early warning signs—such as oil spots that indicate a leak, scorched wiring, or a clogged drain line. We provide a clear, easy-to-understand explanation of what we found and what is needed to fix it.

Moisture & Foundation Protection

In the humid Austin environment, a clogged AC drain can cause water to back up into your home. During our diagnostic check, we ensure your system is properly removing moisture and draining it safely away from your foundation. This helps prevent the dampness that can lead to mold or structural issues.
