How we handle heating and AC repair

Heating and AC repair starts with finding out why the system stopped doing its job. On the AC side, that's usually low refrigerant from a leak, a failing compressor or an electrical problem. On the heat side, it's often low coolant, a stuck thermostat or a clogged heater core.

Signs your AC or heat needs work

  • The AC blows warm, or only cool instead of cold.
  • Airflow from the vents is weak.
  • A musty smell when the air comes on.
  • Noise when the AC is running.
  • The heater blows cold or takes a long time to warm up.
  • A damp floor on the passenger side.

How we handle it

We check the system's pressures, look for leaks and test the parts that run it. If it just needs a recharge, we'll tell you. If something has failed, like the compressor, you get photos and videos of what we found and a clear estimate. Nothing gets done until you approve it.

Our ASE-certified techs work on foreign and American-made vehicles, and most repairs carry our 36 month, 36,000 mile nationwide warranty through TechNet.

Why Is My A/C Blowing Hot Air on Both Sides?

Kemah · November 2026 · From our shop records

Our tech found the A/C compressor had internal wear and was not producing the pressure the system needs. Hot air from both sides sent a driver to our Kemah shop with their vehicle at 53,000 miles. The driver's side had blown hot while the passenger side stayed cold, and both sides went hot gradually, with a hissing from the front only when the A/C was on and foggy windows too. We tested the A/C system and read about 70 PSI on the low side (35 expected) and about 150 PSI on the high side (200 expected). Those readings showed the compressor could not compress and circulate the refrigerant well enough to cool.

The team recharged the A/C system. Additional system testing and a refrigerant charge check after repairs were recommended, not done on this visit.

“They were very friendly and helpful and got my ac fixed! Working great! Thank you so much!”
Irene MezaGoogle review
“They fixed the AC and replaced the brakes in my son’s first truck. They have excellent customer service. Very friendly and honest. They communicated with me throughout the repairs and had the truck ready the next day. They will be my first choice the next time I need any repairs done.”
Adrian Van CourtGoogle review
“** GOOD BYE DEALERSHIP ** I recently had my AC compressor go out on my 2016 BMW 228i. I took it to the dealership who has always done service and any repairs on this vehicle. The repair price for the compressor was a couple of hundred more than Texas Complete Auto Repair (TCAR) with a lot of potential add on’s. I took it to TCAR and explained the situation and showed a video of the repairs recommended by the dealership. TCAR’s knowledgeable staff (Steve) reviewed the video and gave me good honest advice on what the repairs should be and how much it will cost. TCAR went and picked up the vehicle from the dealership and finished that night. I picked up a clean car with AC working the next morning when my schedule allowed. TCAR service was professional, timely and a great value for the money!”

FAQ

Heating and AC Repair questions, answered

Common questions about our heating and ac repair.

Why is my car AC blowing warm air?

The most common cause is low refrigerant from a leak. A failing compressor, a bad cooling fan or an electrical problem can do it too. We check before recharging so you know what's going on.

Can you just recharge my AC?

A recharge will help if the system is low, but refrigerant doesn't get used up. If it's low, it's leaking somewhere. We'll check for the leak, tell you what we find, and you decide.

Why does my heater blow cold air?

Low coolant is a common cause, and that usually means a leak. A thermostat stuck open, a clogged heater core or a blend door problem can do it too.

What's that musty smell when I turn on the AC?

Usually mold or mildew growing on the evaporator, or a dirty cabin air filter. We can check both.

Do AC repairs come with a warranty?

Yes. Most repairs carry a 36 month, 36,000 mile nationwide warranty through TechNet.
