Brushy Creek sits between Cedar Park and Round Rock, about 15 minutes up RM 620 from our Northwest Austin shop.
Brushy Creek is one of the older communities in the area. Great Oaks and Spanish Oak Terrace date to the mid-1970s, and neighborhoods like Woods of Brushy Creek, Fern Bluff and Cat Hollow were built through the late 1980s. Stone Canyon followed in the mid-1990s. That means many homes here have been through several air conditioners, and plenty still have attic ductwork, gas lines or electrical panels from when the house was built. We look at the whole system before recommending anything.
Same-day repair on most weekdays for warm air, frozen lines, leaks and dead condensers.
Replacing aging and R-22 systems with right-sized, efficient equipment.
Ductless mini-splits for the rooms that never get comfortable: a hot upstairs bedroom, a converted garage, a sunroom or a home office.
Safety checks and replacement for older gas furnaces.
All-electric heating and cooling when it's time to replace both AC and furnace.
Seasonal checkups, including condenser coils clogged by leaves and cottonwood fluff.
A lot of Brushy Creek homes are on a system installed in the 2000s or earlier. If yours uses R-22 refrigerant, every repair that involves refrigerant gets more expensive, because R-22 is no longer made. When it's time to replace, doing it right matters more in an older house than in a new one.
See our AC installation and replacement page for more, or ask about financing.
Brushy Creek's mature live oaks and creekside trees are part of what makes the neighborhoods so pleasant. They're also hard on outdoor AC units. Leaves, oak pollen and cottonwood fluff pack into condenser coils each spring, and a clogged coil makes your AC run longer, cost more and fail sooner on hot afternoons.
A spring tune-up includes a proper coil cleaning. Between visits, keep at least two feet of clear space around the unit and rinse the outside of the coil gently with a garden hose, from the inside out if you can, never with a pressure washer.
Brushy Creek is outside Austin Energy's service area. Many homes here get power delivered by Oncor, with a retail electricity plan you choose, and some are members of Pedernales Electric Cooperative (PEC). Both have offered efficiency programs at times. When we quote a new system, we'll check what's available for your address.

Do you serve Brushy Creek even though it has a Round Rock address?
Yes. Brushy Creek is an unincorporated community with Round Rock mailing addresses, and it's part of our regular service area. Same-day visits are often available on weekdays.
My AC is over 20 years old. Should I repair it or replace it?
At that age, and especially if it uses R-22, replacement usually makes more sense than a major repair. A small repair can still buy time. We'll give you both prices and let you decide.
Do I need new ductwork with a new AC?
Not always. We test the existing ducts for leaks and airflow first. Sometimes sealing and a few repairs are enough. In some 1970s and 1980s homes, replacing the ducts is the better long-term fix.
Do Austin Energy rebates apply in Brushy Creek?
No. Brushy Creek is outside Austin Energy's area. Check the name on your electric bill, and we'll look up current Oncor or PEC programs for your address when we quote a new system.
