We’re proud to share that Smart Air and our president, Jay Jahantash, were recently featured in a KHOU news segment highlighting the surge in air conditioning service calls as Houston braces for extreme summer heat.
As temperatures continue to climb into the mid and high 90s—and with heat indexes expected to reach well over 100°F—homeowners across the city are rushing to make sure their AC systems are ready. But here's the thing: the best time to service your AC isn't when the heat hits—it's before.
Why AC Maintenance Is Critical Right Now
The demand on HVAC systems during a Houston summer is no joke. We see it every year—but this summer, the urgency has kicked in earlier than usual. Preventive maintenance helps you avoid system failures, extend the life of your unit, and keep your energy bills under control.
Here's what we're encouraging all Houston homeowners to focus on:
Change Out Your Filters
Clean filters mean better airflow and less strain on your system. If it's been more than a month since your last filter change, now's the time.
Clear Your Outdoor Unit
Leaves, grass, and yard debris can block your condenser coil and choke performance. Make sure there's at least 2 feet of clear space around your unit.
Consider a Thermostat Upgrade
More customers than ever are asking us to install smart thermostats to help them manage cooling more efficiently and save on energy bills.
Book a Maintenance Check
Our licensed techs are doing full system inspections to make sure your AC is running strong before the peak of summer hits. We check for refrigerant levels, electrical issues, airflow restrictions, and more.
Don’t Get Stuck Without AC This Summer
The bottom line is this: every year we see a spike in emergency calls in June and July, when systems that haven’t been serviced start to fail under the pressure of Houston’s heat.
Whether you’re booking a checkup, clearing your vents, or upgrading your setup, now is the time to act. And if you saw us on the news—thanks for tuning in! We're always here to keep Houston cool, comfortable, and running efficiently.
