TRUSTED HVAC SERVICES IN SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS

At Air Speed Heating & Cooling, we provide comprehensive HVAC services in San Antonio including air conditioning installation, repair, and maintenance, heating system services, indoor air quality solutions, and commercial HVAC services. Our experienced technicians are equipped to handle all major brands and models, ensuring your home remains comfortable year-round.

We recommend scheduling professional HVAC maintenance twice a year - once in spring for your cooling system and once in fall for your heating system. Regular maintenance helps prevent unexpected breakdowns, extends equipment life, improves energy efficiency, and maintains your warranty. For San Antonio's climate, this schedule ensures your system is ready for our intense summers and occasional cold snaps.

We primarily install and service Armstrong and Ducane systems, which offer excellent performance and reliability for San Antonio's climate. Additionally, we're experienced in working with Honeywell air filtration systems and Daikin mini-split systems. Our technicians are also trained to service and repair all major HVAC brands, ensuring we can help regardless of what equipment you currently have.

Yes, we offer flexible financing options through FTL Finance to make your HVAC investment more affordable. Our financing plans feature competitive interest rates, various term lengths to fit your budget, and a simple application process. During your consultation, we can discuss available financing options and help you select a plan that works best for your financial situation.

Several signs indicate you may need AC repair or replacement: if your system is over 10-15 years old, if you're experiencing frequent breakdowns, if your energy bills have increased significantly, if your home has uneven cooling, or if your system uses R-22 refrigerant (which is being phased out). During a diagnostic visit, our technicians will assess your system's condition and provide honest recommendations based on repair costs versus replacement benefits.

Indoor air quality is crucial because the air inside your home can be 2-5 times more polluted than outdoor air. Poor indoor air quality can cause or worsen respiratory issues, allergies, and other health problems. In San Antonio's climate, managing humidity and filtering airborne particles like dust, pollen, and mold spores is essential for maintaining a healthy indoor environment. Our air quality solutions can help reduce allergens, eliminate odors, and create cleaner, healthier air in your home.

Yes, mini-split systems are perfect for single-room installations. They're ideal for home additions, converted garages, sunrooms, or any space where extending your existing ductwork isn't practical. Mini-splits provide efficient, targeted temperature control and are much easier to install than traditional systems since they don't require ductwork. We offer Daikin mini-split systems that are energy-efficient, quiet, and can be controlled independently from the rest of your home's HVAC system.

Our comprehensive maintenance plans include bi-annual system inspections, priority scheduling for emergency service, discounted repair rates, cleaning of major components (coils, condensers, etc.), filter replacements, electrical connection checks, thermostat calibration, and system performance evaluation. Regular maintenance helps detect problems early, improves energy efficiency, extends equipment life, and maintains manufacturer warranties. We offer different maintenance plan tiers to fit your needs and budget.

Common signs of a failing furnace include unusual noises (banging, rattling, or squealing), yellow pilot light instead of blue, frequent cycling on and off, rising energy bills despite similar usage, uneven heating throughout your home, visible rust or cracks on the system, excessive dust in your home, and the system's age exceeding 15-20 years. If you notice these symptoms, it's important to schedule a professional inspection to determine whether repairs or replacement is the better option.

Yes, in addition to serving the Greater San Antonio area, we provide HVAC services to surrounding communities including New Braunfels, Canyon Lake, Somerset, Atascosa, and Bulverde. Our service area covers most of Bexar County and portions of surrounding counties.

If your AC is leaking water, first turn off the system to prevent potential water damage or electrical issues. Check and clean or replace the air filter, as a clogged filter can cause freezing and subsequent melting. Ensure your condensate drain line isn't clogged by cleaning it with vinegar or a wet/dry vacuum. If these steps don't resolve the issue or you notice extensive leaking, contact us for professional service as it could indicate a more serious problem like a refrigerant leak or broken condensate pump.

UV lights improve indoor air quality by using ultraviolet radiation to kill or inactivate airborne pathogens like bacteria, viruses, mold spores, and other microorganisms as air passes through your HVAC system. When installed in your air handler, UV lights help prevent mold growth on cooling coils and drain pans while reducing biofilm buildup. This technology is especially beneficial for households with allergy or asthma sufferers, improving overall air cleanliness and reducing potential respiratory irritants.

Yes, all our technicians are fully certified and licensed professionals with extensive training and experience in HVAC systems. Many of our technicians hold NATE (North American Technician Excellence) certification, which is the industry's most rigorous testing program for HVAC professionals. Our team regularly completes continuing education to stay current with the latest HVAC technologies, techniques, and safety standards. We also conduct background checks on all employees for your peace of mind.

To lower your energy bills, schedule regular HVAC maintenance to ensure optimal system performance, upgrade to a programmable or smart thermostat to avoid heating/cooling an empty home, seal air leaks around windows and doors, add appropriate insulation to your attic and walls, regularly change air filters (every 1-3 months), keep outdoor units clean and free of debris, use ceiling fans to improve air circulation, keep blinds closed during peak sun hours in summer, and consider upgrading to high-efficiency HVAC equipment if your current system is older than 10-15 years.

Heat pumps offer several benefits for San Antonio homeowners: they provide both heating and cooling in one system, are extremely energy-efficient (typically using 50% less electricity than traditional heating systems), have lower operating costs, produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions, offer consistent comfort with less temperature fluctuation, perform well in our mild winter climate, qualify for various energy rebates and incentives, and have longer lifespans than traditional systems when properly maintained. For many homes in our region, heat pumps offer an ideal comfort solution.

We prioritize prompt service for all our customers. For emergency service calls, we typically respond within 2-4 hours in the San Antonio area, often sooner when technicians are nearby. For standard service requests, we usually offer same-day or next-day appointments depending on our current schedule and your location. Maintenance plan members receive priority scheduling. During extreme weather events, wait times may be longer, but we always communicate expected arrival times and work diligently to help all customers as quickly as possible.
